Image is of a Hezbollah missile attack on a military camp west of Jenin.


The situation between Hezbollah and Israel is rapidly escalating, with massive bombing campaigns on southern Lebanon by Israel predominantly on civilians (as the tunnels in South Lebanon are mostly unreachable to the Zionists, just like in Gaza), while Hezbollah and its allies respond with missile attacks predominantly on Israeli military facilities. Israel is spreading an evacuation order to the residents of southern Lebanese villages while also bombing their routes of escape and civilian infrastructure, similar to a terror tactic used widely in Gaza.

Northern Israel is currently under military censorship to hide their losses, so we get very little information other than what the Resistance provides and what videos and images get through the censors.

I don't know if Israel will dare a ground incursion soon, but it seems fairly likely in the coming days or weeks.

Israel-Palestine Conflict

If you have evidence of Israeli crimes and atrocities that you wish to preserve, there is a thread here in which to do so.

Sources on the fighting in Palestine against Israel. In general, CW for footage of battles, explosions, dead people, and so on:

UNRWA reports on Israel's destruction and siege of Gaza and the West Bank.

Arab-language twitter account with videos and images of fighting.
English-language (with some Arab retweets) Twitter account based in Lebanon. - Telegram is @IbnRiad.

Russia-Ukraine Conflict

Examples of Ukrainian Nazis and fascists
Examples of racism/euro-centrism during the Russia-Ukraine conflict

Sources:

Defense Politics Asia's youtube channel and their map. Their youtube channel has substantially diminished in quality but the map is still useful.
Moon of Alabama, which tends to have interesting analysis. Avoid the comment section.
Understanding War and the Saker: reactionary sources that have occasional insights on the war.
Alexander Mercouris, who does daily videos on the conflict. While he is a reactionary and surrounds himself with likeminded people, his daily update videos are relatively brainworm-free and good if you don't want to follow Russian telegram channels to get news. He also co-hosts The Duran, which is more explicitly conservative, racist, sexist, transphobic, anti-communist, etc when guests are invited on, but is just about tolerable when it's just the two of them if you want a little more analysis.
Simplicius, who publishes on Substack. Like others, his political analysis should be soundly ignored, but his knowledge of weaponry and military strategy is generally quite good.
On the ground: Patrick Lancaster, an independent and very good journalist reporting in the warzone on the separatists' side.

Unedited videos of Russian/Ukrainian press conferences and speeches.

Missile from Lebanon hits IOF target near Quds, drones swarm Nahariya

A missile fired from Lebanon impacted a target in the occupied West Bank where fires broke out on Saturday night.

An hour after the missile attack, sirens sounded in the coastal city settlement of Nahariya, where unidentified aerial objects were detected flying over the area.

Article

The Israeli occupation's military command said that at least one missile was launched from Lebanon and impacted a settlement in the occupied West Bank, near occupied al-Quds, late on Saturday night.

Circulated footage showed a missile impacting its Israeli target after sirens sounded in multiple illegal Israeli settlements near al-Quds, including Ma'ale Adumim, at 10:05 pm (local time).

Later, more footage emerged of the site of the impact, where Israeli authorities had gathered to assess the damage and where a large fire had erupted.

Since then, the Israeli military command has been warily silent about the long-range attack from Lebanon.

Israeli military assets have come under several attacks by the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon - Hezbollah in the past few days, however, this marks the first instance where a missile has been fired at the area.

Moreover, Israeli media reported that a building in the suburbs of occupied al-Quds was damaged and that settlements in the area suffered from a power outage. Other outlets reported that the missile impacted an Israeli base in Ma'ale Adumim.

Al Mayadeen's correspondent said the missile impacted near an Israeli colonial outpost, Mitzpe Hagit, near Ma'ale Admumim.

Drones swarm Nahariya

An hour after the missile attack, sirens sounded in the coastal city settlement of Nahariya, where unidentified aerial objects were detected flying over the area.

Explosions were heard in the city, however, the Israeli military command has yet to comment on the matter.

These attacks come after the Israeli regime launched a wide-scale aggression on Lebanon killing hundreds of civilians in the past week.

The Israeli regime's aggression also saw the carpet bombing of a neighborhood in the suburb of Lebanon's capital, Beirut, where Hezbollah and Resistance leader, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, was martyred alongside several of his comrades.

Hezbollah launched eight operations in defense of Lebanon and in support of the Palestinian people on Saturday, including a rocket attack on the Qatsrin settlement in the Israeli-occupied Syrian Golan.


Iraqi Resistance attacks vital Israeli target in Tel Aviv with drones

The Islamic Resistance in Iraq says the latest operation was in support of the Palestinian and Lebanese people.

Article

The Islamic Resistance in Iraq announced that it attacked on Saturday morning a vital target in Tel Aviv (occupied Yafa) using drones.

In a statement, the Iraqi Resistance indicated that the latest operation was "in continuation of our path in resisting the occupation, in support of our people in Palestine and Lebanon, and in response to the massacres committed by the usurping entity against civilians, including children, women, and the elderly."

A video released by the group's military media showed that the operation was dedicated to Hezbollah's commander Ibrahim Aqil (Hajj Abdul-Qader), who was martyred last week in an Israeli aggression that targeted the Southern Suburb of the Lebanese capital, Beirut.

In the early hours of Saturday, the Islamic Resistance in Iraq carried out a drone attack against a vital Israeli target in the occupied Syrian Golan.

Additionally, two other operations were conducted by the Iraqi Resistance against Israeli targets, one military in northern occupied Palestine and another vital target in the southern part of the occupied Palestinian territories.

The Resistance also announced that it had attacked a vital target in the northern occupied territories for the third time during the early morning hours.


Israeli Media: 'Israel' under attack from Yemen, Lebanon, and Iraq

Israeli media reports indicate that the Israeli occupation is facing a 'coordinated and wide-ranging' attack from multiple fronts, causing damage across different areas of occupied Palestine.

Article

Israeli media reported that the occupation entity is facing what it described as an "attack from Lebanon, Yemen, and Iraq." This was accompanied by reports of explosions heard in Eilat, located in the south of occupied Palestine, without the activation of alarm sirens.

In parallel, the Islamic Resistance in Iraq announced its operation on a "vital target in the occupied Umm al-Rashrash (Eilat), using drone strikes."

Additionally, Israeli media noted the outbreak of "four large fires in four settlements east of al-Quds due to rocket fire from Lebanon," along with the activation of sirens in Nahariya and its surroundings amid fears of drone infiltration.

In turn, Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported that drones were launched from Lebanon toward occupied Palestine, resulting in multiple explosions in various areas following the deployment of swarms of drones.

The correspondent also mentioned explosions in the settlement of Ma'ale Adumim, followed by fires after drones fell in the area.

The Israeli occupation forces also confirmed detecting missiles launched from Lebanon toward occupied East al-Quds, where sirens sounded in nearby settlements on Saturday.

Israeli media, moreover, reported damage to a building in the suburbs of al-Quds, power outages affecting part of the area, and the outbreak of a fire.
