Losses of expensive equipment for the IDF are becoming routine. In the Shomera area, a Hezbollah FPV drone struck at least the third Iron Dome air defense system launcher in a month. The video was filmed on May 18, but published today. Based on the footage, the drone hit the containers with air defense missiles directly again: if they're not empty, this usually leads to detonation and destruction. Notably, all the launchers struck by Hezbollah were deployed near the Lebanese border. The IDF is trying to protect border settlements this way: with air defense positioned further away, it simply doesn't have time to react to a launch. 🖍Overall, this is another illustration of how, amid the "drone revolution," traditional air defense systems increasingly turn from hunter into prey. Moreover, Hezbollah uses the most ordinary FPV drones without Starlink and auto-guidance modules. ❗️For now, the IDF appears to be at the very beginning of realizing that the realities have changed, and an entire Iron Dome battery can be destroyed by drones for a thousand dollars. In time, this will sink in, and the launchers will acquire protective measures. The question is how many more Israeli air defense systems Hezbollah will be able to strike by then.

🚨🇮🇷🇨🇳 IRAN WAR JUST BLEW UP AMERICA’S CHINA WAR PLANS The short war with Iran didn’t just burn through US missiles — it proved America is nowhere near ready for a real fight with China. 🔸 MISSILE STOCKPILES GUTTED: In just the first 40 days, the US fired off huge amounts of its best air defense and attack missiles. 🔸 BASES TURNED INTO EASY TARGETS: US bases in the Middle East got hammered by Iranian drones, missiles, and jets — buildings wrecked, radars destroyed, and troops forced to work from hotels. 🔸 AIR DEFENSES FAILED HARD: Iran knocked out key US radars and ground defenses, showing they can’t protect bases even against a weaker enemy. 🔸 STAND-OFF WEAPONS DIDN’T WORK: US only destroyed about 50% of Iran’s missiles and launchers — they couldn’t stop the attacks completely. China has way more, Western sources reports. 🔸 NO REAL AIR OR SEA CONTROL: US planes still faced risks and Navy ships had to stay far away. Their blockade let many Iranian ships through. 🔸 DRONE PROBLEM EXPOSED: Iran beat the US in drone use (air and sea). America is far behind, while China is the world leader — no “hellscape” for Chinese forces. America’s whole Pacific strategy relies on these same bases, carriers, and long-range strikes… and they just failed against Iran. Do you think the U.S. stands a chance in a great power war against China?

🚨🇱🇧 IDF IN PANIC: Hezbollah smashes top Israeli drone with low-cost SAM Hezbollah units have downed an Israeli Hermes 450 over Lebanon, drawing attention to the Mizag-1 — a low-cost Iranian MANPADS increasingly used to counter UAVs in the region. 🔸 This portable fire-and-forget MANPADS developed by Tehran at the Shahid Kazemi Industrial Complex offers an effective range of 500 meters to 5-6 km with a maximum altitude of up to 5 km. 🔸 The 16.9 kg shoulder-fired system features a 1.42 kg high-explosive fragmentation warhead and reaches speeds of Mach 2.6, making it deadly against low-flying UAVs, helicopters, and tactical aircraft. 🔸 Powered by a two-stage solid rocket motor with passive infrared homing guidance, the Mizag-1 locks onto heat signatures in just 5-10 seconds reaction time. 🔸 At roughly 17 kg total weight and only 1.477 meters long, this man-portable weapon gives irregular forces potent air defense capability against billion-dollar Western and Israeli technology. 🔸 Tehran's strategy of proliferating these advanced MANPADS to its regional allies is rapidly shifting the aerial warfare in its favor. 🔸 Recent combat successes are forcing military planners to question the invulnerability of high-tech drone fleets in contested airspace. 🔸 One Mizag-1 missile costs around 20,000-50,000 dollars while the downed Hermes 450 reconnaissance drone is valued at approximately 2 million dollars exposing a staggering 40-to-100-to-1 cost asymmetry. Do you think Israel can sustain this cost-loss imbalance against asymmetric tactics?

Israeli troops crossed the Litani River on the outskirts of the southern Lebanon town of Zawtar al-Sharqiyah, around 10 kilometers from the border with Israel, during a recent operation against Hezbollah, the military announces. The week-long raid was led by the Golani Brigade’s Reconnaissance Unit, and included other forces. The IDF says the troops achieved "operational control" over the area, and worked to clear it of Hezbollah infrastructure. The soldiers did not cross the line demarcating the IDF's new security zone in southern Lebanon, referred to by some in the army as the "Yellow Line." During the raid, the military says, troops encountered numerous Hezbollah operatives, and killed dozens of them in close-quarters combat and by directing airstrikes. Several soldiers were lightly injured during the fighting. In one incident, troops encountered several Hezbollah operatives who emerged from a tunnel north of the river, and exchanged fire with them. During the clash, a dog of the Oketz canine unit was killed. The troops also located numerous Hezbollah positions, including tunnels, weapon depots, and rocket launchers, the IDF says. Officers involved in the operation describe the terrain as "very complex," as the river in the area is situated in a forested valley. Despite this, the troops managed to cross the river with armored vehicles. The army carried out engineering activity in the area, to enable easier crossing of the river by troops in the future, if required. The Israeli Air Force struck over 100 targets in the area, as part of support for the ground troops, the military adds.

Come and hear about the war crimes committed by Hamas. This is an important post, read it all. I mean, beyond the "usual" things they do, like killing Israeli civilians, LGBTQ+ individuals, and opposition figures in Gaza. This war crime is the relentless rocket fire on Israeli civilians. In 2001, Hamas, the Gaza basee terrorist organization, began independently producing and launching rockets into civilian population centers. Since then, especially after Israel fully withdrew from Gaza in 2005, Hamas' rocket fire intensified, and their launch capabilities expanded significantly. Instead of investing in Gaza's infrastructure, Hamas diverted aid funds, equipment provided by the UN and world governments to build rockets with the sole purpose of indiscriminately killing Israeli civilians. They placed launchers and bomb-making facilities within civilian populations and schools. The attached video shows Hamas using sewage pipes and hoses to construct long-range rockets, and an image displays missile depots and launchers inside a mosque and a Gaza youth movement building. Rocket attacks in the early years killed dozens of civilians, with thousands injured despite citizens seeking shelter during rocket alerts. At this point, Israel decided to invest billions in the Iron Dome defense system to protect its citizens. Israel's commitment to protecting all citizens, both Jewish and Arab, contrasts sharply with Hamas. After years of effort, Israel successfully deployed the Iron Dome, boasting a 96% success rate in intercepting rockets aimed at civilian centers. The system identifies and intercepts only those rockets posing a threat to population centers, sparing open areas. Launching such rockets into civilian areas is a war crime, turning launch sites and missile depots into legitimate military targets, even within civilian populations. Imagine the Israeli casualties if Israel hadn't neutralized missile depots or activated the Iron Dome. Now, consider the following data: The cost of producing a Hamas rocket ranges from $100 to several thousand dollars for a more sophisticated one. They use simple materials like cement supplied by the UN, irrigation system pipes, and other basic tools. Israel, on the other hand, invests a significant amount in Iron Dome missiles, with each interceptor costing between $50,000 and $200,000. Israel's annual investment in defense, protecting both its Jewish and Arab citizens, amounts to billions, while Hamas invests billions in developing rockets aimed at killing civilians and in the development of terrorist infrastructure. Since the current conflict began, Hamas has fired over 9,000 rockets at Israel, with over 10% landing within Gaza itself. The Iron Dome intercepted over two thousand rockets, costing nearly $200 million for the entire interceptor supply. Imagine the potential damage if all these rockets hit Israel – thousands of rockets could cause an estimated over a thousand casualties, thousands of injuries, and extensive damage. Hamas' continued rocket fire on Israeli civilians is a war crime. It always has been and always will be. We can no longer turn a blind eye to this. After Hamas carried out a brutal massacre in addition to rocket attacks, we had no other choice. Israel stands on the side of morality and justice. While Hamas fires missiles at civilian populations and commits atrocities against innocent civilians, Israel targets only legitimate military objectives according to international law. Israel uses precision missiles, costing hundreds of millions of dollars, while Hamas fires indiscriminate rockets. Hamas poses a threat to Israeli citizens, committing war crimes without restraint, and it can not continue. In the pictures: the summary of the data written in the post about the Hamas rocket fire and a video of a rocket falling on the road. Imagine how many people could be killed by her.

🚨🇮🇷 This Iranian Drone Triggers ALARM Inside the US Military One of the roles of the Meraj-521 is to help neutralize defensive positions before assault units advance. By precisely targeting firing points and entrenched defenders, it limits the need for soldiers to expose themselves to enemy fire. 🔸 The Meraj-521 is a lightweight, man-portable loitering munition, easy to carry in a backpack and launch from a simple tube, with a 5km range perfect for taking out bunkers and hardened defenses. 🔸 The Meraj-521 comes with interchangeable high-explosive warheads weighing 500g, 700g, or 1kg, allowing troops to choose the right punch for targets like personnel, light vehicles, or armored threats, all while flying silently on an electric motor for 5-15 minutes. 🔸 This drone is guided by an operator using a built-in electro-optical camera for live video feed, it picks targets in real-time or even abort the mission if needed, ensuring maximum precision and reducing the chance of mistakes. 🔸 The Meraj-521 strikes from safe distances, cutting troop risks and enabling remote dismantling of fortified positions without close-quarters combat. 🔸 The drone is also capable of being launched in swarms from vehicles, helicopters, or even by foot soldiers, it overwhelms scattered defenses in uneven battles, making it a game-changer for asymmetric warfare against better-equipped foes. How effective do you think this drone would be if the US dared to launch a ground operation against Iran? Let us know in the comments Heavy FPV drones pursue the same objective, neutralizing defensive positions before an assault, by delivering heavy explosive charges directly into fortified targets.

In June 1982, the IRGC deployed between 800 and 1,500 Revolutionary Guards to Lebanon’s Bekaa Valley. Their mission was to recruit, train, and unify Lebanese Shia militants into a single organization under Iranian ideological guidance. The organization that emerged was Hezbollah. Its 1985 founding charter pledged allegiance to Iran’s velayat-e faqih doctrine and described the Iranian regime as the “vanguard” of a global Islamic state. This is not contested history. It is documented in a declassified 1984 CIA report, in Hezbollah deputy secretary-general Naim Qassem’s own memoir, and in the charter itself. In November 2024, after a ceasefire ended the previous round of fighting, Iran sent approximately 100 IRGC officers back to Lebanon to retrain Hezbollah fighters, reorganize them into small decentralized units, and oversee a full rearmament program funded at $50 million per month, most of it from Tehran. Reuters confirmed this through six sources briefed on Hezbollah’s finances. By March 2 2026, when Hezbollah launched its first rockets into Israel in solidarity with Iran after the killing of Khamenei, the group had been rebuilt from the inside out by its creator. Since March 2, at least 1,953 people have been killed in Lebanon. Over 1.2 million have been displaced. Nine bridges over the Litani River have been systematically destroyed, isolating the south from aid, food, and medical supply. On April 8, Operation Eternal Darkness hit over 100 targets across Beirut, the Beqaa, and southern Lebanon in ten minutes, killing at least 303 people in the deadliest single day of the war. Hospitals were overwhelmed. The Red Cross described the situation as “severe.” Lebanese authorities called it Black Wednesday. Hezbollah still has an estimated 8,000 to 10,000 rockets and 300 to 400 launchers remaining. On April 9 it claimed 72 operations including 36 rocket launches into Israel. On April 10 it hit homes in Misgav Am and Safed and fired a missile at Ashdod. The group is degraded. It is not broken. Its leader Naim Qassem declared resistance “to the last breath.” And Iran’s delegation, sitting tonight at the Serena Hotel in Islamabad, has made Hezbollah’s survival the precondition for peace. Foreign Ministry spokesperson Baghaei stated that halting the war in Lebanon is “an inseparable part” of the ceasefire framework. Ghalibaf arrived with two demands: full Lebanon ceasefire and release of frozen assets. The IRGC issued a statement affirming it has launched nothing during the ceasefire. Iran is not fighting. Hezbollah is fighting. And Iran is negotiating on behalf of the weapon it built, funded, and rebuilt while the country that weapon operates inside is being destroyed. The costs of Iran’s proxy are denominated in Lebanese casualties, Lebanese bridges, Lebanese hospitals, Lebanese displacement. The benefits of Iran’s proxy are collected in Islamabad, where the precondition buys clock time, extracts sanctions leverage, and preserves Hormuz toll revenue. Iran created Hezbollah to resist Israeli occupation of Lebanon in 1982. In 2026, Iran is using Hezbollah to resist American pressure on Iran while Lebanon absorbs the strikes that Iran’s precondition ensures will continue. Every day Iran insists on a Lebanon ceasefire as its condition for talks, Israel strikes Lebanon harder under the explicit carve-out. The precondition does not protect Lebanon. It prolongs the war in Lebanon. And the organization that was built 44 years ago to defend Lebanese sovereignty is now the mechanism by which Lebanese sovereignty is consumed.

After over a decade of evading air defenses over the skies of Syria during a campaign against Iran's supply of weapons to Hezbollah, the Israeli Air Force says it has achieved total air superiority in the area. An Israeli bombing campaign earlier this week across Syria, aimed at taking out advanced weaponry that could fall into the hands of hostile elements following the collapse of the Bashar al-Assad regime, also destroyed the vast majority of the air defenses in the country. According to the military, the IAF destroyed 86% of the former Assad regime's air defense systems across Syria, totaling 107 separate air defense components and another 47 radars. The numbers include 80% of the short-to medium-range SA-22, also known as the Pantsir-S1; and 90% of the Russian SA-17 medium-range air defense system, also known as the Buk. Both Russian-made systems had posed challenges to the IAF during its so-called campaign between campaigns — or Mabam, as it's known by its Hebrew acronym — aimed at countering Iranian weapon deliveries to Hezbollah in Lebanon and attempts by Iran-backed groups to gain a foothold in the country, which began in 2013. Only a handful of air defense systems now remain in Syria, and they are not considered a major threat to the IAF, which says it can operate freely across the country's skies. "The Syrian air defense array is one of the strongest in the Middle East and the blow caused to it is a significant achievement for the Air Force's superiority in the region," the IDF says. The new freedom of aerial action also brings the IAF new opportunities. If in the past, the IAF would not fly directly over Damascus when carrying out strikes on Iran-linked targets in the capital, it now can. The IAF can also send surveillance drones over the Syrian capital without the fear of them being shot down by the advanced Russian-made air defense systems. While the Iran-backed Assad regime has fallen, Israel still will operate over Syria to ensure that advanced weapons from the former government's army do not reach Hezbollah in Lebanon or any other group hostile to Israel in the region. The bombing campaign on Sunday and Monday, which began hours after Assad's regime fell, also hit Syrian airbases, weapon depots, weapon production sites, and chemical weapons sites, in addition to the air defense systems. The strikes destroyed hundreds of missiles and related systems, 27 fighter jets, 24 helicopters, and more. A total of 1,800 munitions were used in the strikes, taking out nearly every site of "strategic military capabilities" that Israel was aware of. The IDF assesses that it did not destroy all of the Assad regime's military capabilities, and Hezbollah will most certainly try to get its hands on advanced weapons that were so far spared. The chances of weapons from Syria finding their way to Hezbollah in Lebanon are considered to be high, according to the IDF's assessments. To prevent weapons from reaching Hezbollah, the IAF has bombed all of the border crossings between Syria and Lebanon, leaving just one of them, Masnaa, open for pedestrian traffic. The IAF says it is constantly monitoring the crossings to ensure that Hezbollah does not return to use them for weapon deliveries. At the same time, the military also believes it has dealt a major blow to the weapon manufacturing capabilities of the entire Iran-led axis, in Lebanon, Syria, and in Iran itself with October's strike in response to Tehran's ballistic missile attack.

After over a decade of evading air defenses over the skies of Syria during a campaign against Iran's supply of weapons to Hezbollah, the Israeli Air Force says it has achieved total air superiority in the area. An Israeli bombing campaign earlier this week across Syria, aimed at taking out advanced weaponry that could fall into the hands of hostile elements following the collapse of the Bashar al-Assad regime, also destroyed the vast majority of the air defenses in the country. According to the military, the IAF destroyed 86% of the former Assad regime's air defense systems across Syria, totaling 107 separate air defense components and another 47 radars. The numbers include 80% of the short-to medium-range SA-22, also known as the Pantsir-S1; and 90% of the Russian SA-17 medium-range air defense system, also known as the Buk. Both Russian-made systems had posed challenges to the IAF during its so-called campaign between campaigns — or Mabam, as it's known by its Hebrew acronym — aimed at countering Iranian weapon deliveries to Hezbollah in Lebanon and attempts by Iran-backed groups to gain a foothold in the country, which began in 2013. Only a handful of air defense systems now remain in Syria, and they are not considered a major threat to the IAF, which says it can operate freely across the country's skies. "The Syrian air defense array is one of the strongest in the Middle East and the blow caused to it is a significant achievement for the Air Force's superiority in the region," the IDF says. The new freedom of aerial action also brings the IAF new opportunities. If in the past, the IAF would not fly directly over Damascus when carrying out strikes on Iran-linked targets in the capital, it now can. The IAF can also send surveillance drones over the Syrian capital without the fear of them being shot down by the advanced Russian-made air defense systems. While the Iran-backed Assad regime has fallen, Israel still will operate over Syria to ensure that advanced weapons from the former government's army do not reach Hezbollah in Lebanon or any other group hostile to Israel in the region. The bombing campaign on Sunday and Monday, which began hours after Assad's regime fell, also hit Syrian airbases, weapon depots, weapon production sites, and chemical weapons sites, in addition to the air defense systems. The strikes destroyed hundreds of missiles and related systems, 27 fighter jets, 24 helicopters, and more. A total of 1,800 munitions were used in the strikes, taking out nearly every site of "strategic military capabilities" that Israel was aware of. The IDF assesses that it did not destroy all of the Assad regime's military capabilities, and Hezbollah will most certainly try to get its hands on advanced weapons that were so far spared.

🚨🇮🇷 US NIGHTMARE: The Iranian Drone Built to Obliterate US & Israeli Forces Iran's Shahed-136 kamikaze drone, a low-cost UAV that costs just $20k, unleashes swarm attacks that evade radars, strikes with deadly precision, defies US sanctions, and has already overwhelmed NATO defenses in Ukraine. 🔸 The Shahed-136 is powered by a rear-mounted, two-bladed pusher propeller, it carries a deadly 50 kg high-explosive fragmentation warhead in the nose, upgradable to 90 kg or a devastating thermobaric variant. 🔸 Weighing 200 to 240 kg, it's 3.5 meters long with a 2.5-meter wingspan, driven by Iran's MD-550 four-cylinder two-stroke engine delivering 50 to 90 horsepower (cleverly reverse-engineered from Germany's Limbach L550), cruising at 185 km/h over ranges up to 2,500 km standard or 4,000 km in the 2025 Shahed-136B version, flying low from 60 to 4,000 meters to stay under the radar. 🔸 Smart guidance keeps it on target using inertial navigation corrected by satellite systems like GPS or GLONASS, plus anti-jamming antennas. 🔸 Built tough and sanctions-proof, it integrates components of diverse origin, all wrapped in fiberglass or carbon-fiber bodies with black paint for nighttime stealth, tungsten ball shrapnel for extra damage, and optional infrared cameras, launched easily with rocket boosts from portable rails or truck boxes holding up to five drones. 🔸 In action, these drones have backed Houthi forces in Yemen's civil war, targeted Saudi oil sites in 2019 (though debated), struck US bases in Syria and shipping in the Gulf, and hit Israel in 2024. Do you think these drones will be effective in a potential Iran-US-Israel conflict?

🚨🇮🇷 IRAN'S DRONES ARE THE WEST'S WORST NIGHTMARE: Hadid 110 vs Shahed 136 Iran's drone technology has evolved significantly, with its first combat use of the new Hadid 110 last month—a high-speed, stealth drone that enhances Iran's offensive capabilities. While the Shahed 136 was revolutionary for its low-cost, mass-saturation approach, the Hadid 110 marks a shift towards more advanced, precise, and faster loitering munitions. 🔸 Hadid 110’s turbojet engine hits speeds of 510 km/h, far outpacing the Shahed 136’s 185 km/h. This speed gives it a clear advantage against traditional missile defense systems. 🔸 Shahed 136 pioneered cost-efficient swarm tactics, flooding defenses with overwhelming numbers — but the Hadid 110 now breaks through with stealth features and precision strikes, proving speed and survival matter more than sheer volume. 🔸 Iran’s Hadid 110 has cutting-edge radar evasion, designed to penetrate advanced defense systems, making it a lethal high-speed missile that even Israel and the US struggle to intercept. 🔸 While Shaheds still play a crucial role in mass attacks, the Hadid 110 takes on high-value, heavily-defended targets, like radar stations and military infrastructure, with its 30 kg payload and 350 km range — a far cry from its predecessor’s capabilities. US and Israel’s reliance on outdated interception methods is increasingly obsolete as Iran adapts its drones to counter these systems. How can the West win if Iran’s drones evolve faster than their defenses?

🇱🇧🇮🇱 For years, Hezbollah's threat to Israel came with a simple mental image: a warehouse full of rockets and a finger hovering over the “launch everything” button. Crude, overwhelming, and terrifying in a very blunt-force way. That version of the problem hasn’t disappeared, it's been upgraded. Hezbollah is estimated to still have thousands of rockets and missiles, even after a war that chewed through stockpiles and an Israeli campaign that made a sport out of blowing them up. Short-range rockets for saturation, medium-range systems that can reach deep into Israel, anti-tank missiles waiting for any ground incursion, and anti-ship weapons. That alone is enough to keep northern Israel on edge, but rockets are yesterday’s nightmare. Today’s headache comes with wings, a camera, and just enough intelligence to make Israel's multi-billion-dollar defense system sweat. Enter Iran’s favorite export: drones. The kind that loiter, watch, wait, and then slam into something expensive. Hezbollah isn’t just receiving these systems anymore. It’s learning how to build them, tweak them, and mass-produce them locally. Which means this isn’t a supply problem Israel can bomb away. It’s a manufacturing problem that regenerates. Here’s how the future fight looks: Rockets go up first; loud, messy, designed to overwhelm and distract. Air defenses light up, radars turn on, and interceptors launch. Then the drones come in. Some scout, some jam, some just wait patiently for something valuable to reveal itself, and then they dive. It’s not brute force anymore, it’s layered harassment with a brain. Israel still holds the technological edge. Its air defenses are among the best on the planet, its intelligence is deep, and its ability to strike back is unmatched in the region. But even the best systems have limits, especially when they’re forced to play whack-a-mole against something cheap, persistent, and increasingly local. That’s the shift. Hezbollah is no longer just a rocket army. It’s becoming a hybrid force that blends old-school saturation with modern, Iranian-designed precision nuisance. Not powerful enough to win a war outright, but clever enough to make every day of one painfully expensive and unpredictably dangerous.

The situation in northern Israel is getting surprisingly little attention in the West. Here’s some background and an explanation of just how dire it is. World War Three gets closer by the day, and I’m not exaggerating. UNSC resolution 1701 (2006) is that Hezbollah agree to stay north of the river Litani in Lebanon. This puts Israeli settlements out of anti-tank rocket range. However, Hezbollah have broken this and since 7th October have fired thousands of rockets into Israel, displacing some 60,000 Israelis from their homes. To be clear, Hezbollah is a direct Iranian proxy, who live like a virus inside the almost-dead body of the Lebanese state. Their fighters are far superior to Hamas, having gained serious experience in the Syrian civil war. They have no real ground manoeuvre or air power, but their tunnels in the chalk rock of southern Lebanon are better than Hamas’ and they have an estimated 150,000 rockets. There are UN Peacekeepers in Lebanon, but (shockingly for the UN, I know) they’re as much use as a bacon sandwich at a Bar Mitzvah. One very senior Israeli source described them to me as “an umbrella that folds when it rains”. So Israel has a real, very serious problem. They do not have the manpower to assault into Lebanon for any kind of sustained campaign, especially whilst Gaza is ongoing. So, in polite terms, they are kicking the shit out of it from the air (over which they have total superiority) and relying on missile defences. Thousands of targets have been struck in the last 9 months but Hezbollah retain very significant missile capability. This is why Israel are beholden to the USA to offer obscenely generous ceasefire terms to Hamas (that Hamas appear to be declining). They cannot afford to lose American military aid with this threat on their northern border. In the videos below, in the first vid you see the war zone northern Israel has become. The second one is the settlement of Katzrin in the Golan Heights. Surrounded on all sides by fires. In a statement to Qatari-funded Muslim Brotherhood mouthpiece Al Jazeera, yesterday Hezbollah said, “We simultaneously attacked 15 bases in the Golan and the Galilee using 150 rockets and 30 drones. This is the most extensive attack carried out by the organization since October 8, this attack came in response to the assassination in Joya and in order to deter Israel from carrying out further assassinations of this type.” On top of that, Iranian proxies in Iraq took responsibility last night for the joint operation they carried out together with the Houthis (Iranian proxies in Yemen), which launched these ballistic missiles and UAVs towards the Israeli cities of Ashdod and Haifa (third video). Iran is besieging Israel on all sides, and Israel is bending, not breaking. This situation is genuinely dire. It explains why Hamas will not sign a ceasefire deal, and why other non-Iran aligned Gulf states are meeting with IDF commanders. The entire region is teetering on the edge of a much more widespread conflict with Iran, and Israel is taking the brunt of it. If this situation deteriorates, our allies in the Gulf may call for aid. As a second front in the war against the Iran-Russia-China-Qatar axis of malign global actors, this could not be more serious or worrying. And all the while we see subversive Iranian proxy organisations organising protests about Gaza on Western streets. Hopefully the West is not defeated domestically before the war even starts in earnest.

⚡️🇱🇧 Israeli strikes continued hitting Lebanese territory even after a ceasefire announcement, Al Jazeera correspondent Heidi Pett reported from Beirut in the early hours of Wednesday morning. In the 30 minutes following the announcement, three airstrikes hit the village of Shutras in eastern southern Lebanon near the town of Khiam, where intense fighting has continued throughout the 6-week war. Artillery shelling was also reported in Khiam. Two earlier strikes since the announcement hit near a hospital in the city of Tyre and the town of Lashkar in the Bekaa Valley — a site of multiple strikes in recent days, where Israel also destroyed two bridges across the Litani River. An Israeli drone was still flying low over Beirut after 3 AM local time. No official confirmation of the ceasefire has been received from the U.S., Iran, Israel or Hezbollah. The only public announcement has come from Pakistan’s Prime Minister, who said the ceasefire would include Lebanon and was effective immediately. Pett noted cautious, mixed reactions on the ground. First responders, who have responded to airstrike after airstrike for six weeks, were looking forward to a break — but Lebanese civilians remember that the 2024 ceasefire was violated hundreds of times by Israel over 15 months, with continued drone assassinations and a sustained military presence in southern Lebanon throughout that period. Israeli leaders have also explicitly stated that displaced Lebanese from the south will not be permitted to return until Israel deems northern Israel safe — leaving hundreds of thousands facing continued displacement regardless of any ceasefire.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ At least 1,530 people have been killed in Israel’s war on Lebanon.

💢 REPORT | Israel Violating Ceasefire on Day One, Killing 3 Civilians and Pushing Into Villages in Lebanon In the first 24 hours after the U.S.-Iran deal was formally announced, Israel has repeatedly violated the U.S.-backed Lebanon ceasefire, killing civilians, shelling towns, and attempting ground incursions across south Lebanon despite the agreement’s stated clause of halting fighting “on all fronts, including Lebanon.” 🔸 The dead: ➤ Ismail Allam was killed in Yater (Bint Jbeil) in an explosion whose cause, whether an Israeli strike, unexploded ordnance, or another suspicious object, remains under investigation. L’Orient Today described him as the first person killed in Lebanon since the deal took effect overnight. ➤ An Israeli drone later struck a car at the Kfar Tibnit roundabout, killing a person whose body was reportedly left unrecognizable, according to L’Orient Today. ➤ Earlier, an Israeli drone dropped a stun grenade on civilians walking toward Mansouri (Sour), killing one person and wounding several others. 🔸 A journalist targeted: ➤ Press TV correspondent Hadi Hoteit was wounded in Kfar Tibnit after an Israeli drone dropped a grenade that exploded less than a meter from him while he was reporting. Speaking from the hospital, Hoteit said Israel had deliberately targeted him. Video appears to show deliberate targeting as well. ➤ Lebanon’s photojournalists’ syndicate later urged journalists not to rush back into frontline areas, warning that “nothing is guaranteed.” 🔸 Ground incursions and clashes: ➤ Hezbollah said it “repelled” an Israeli force, including an excavator and two Merkava tanks, advancing from Arnoun toward Kfar Tibnit at around 6:15 p.m., using guided missiles and Ababil attack drones. ➤ Drop Site sources in the south reported Israeli forces attempting to push into Bra’shit, with tanks audible and a massive explosion reported in the village. Israeli troops were also said to be positioned near homes on the outskirts toward Beit Yahoun and Kounine. ➤ Israeli soldiers advanced and carried out sweeping fire toward Bouyout al-Sayyed near a UNIFIL position in the Sour district 🔸 Shelling, drones, and blocked roads: ➤ Israeli artillery struck the Ali al-Taher hills and a road near Zawtar al-Sharqieh, while the army detonated a large explosive device in Aita al-Jabal and, according to Lebanon’s National News Agency and Drop Site sources, detonated car bombs on the Haris-Tibnin road. ➤ Quadcopter drones were reported “dropping bombs,” while roads around Haris, Kafra, Haddatha, and Tebnine were described as too dangerous to travel. The Lebanese Army closed multiple roads and warned displaced residents not to return to border villages. 🔸 The toll and the backdrop: ➤ Lebanon’s Health Ministry said Israeli attacks over the previous 24 hours killed 15 people and wounded 82, bringing the toll since March 2 to 3,798 killed and 11,781 wounded. ➤ Israeli leaders also made clear they do not consider themselves bound by the agreement.

💢 REPORT | Israel Violating Ceasefire on Day One, Killing 3 Civilians and Pushing Into Villages in Lebanon In the first 24 hours after the U.S.-Iran deal was formally announced, Israel has repeatedly violated the U.S.-backed Lebanon ceasefire, killing civilians, shelling towns, and attempting ground incursions across south Lebanon despite the agreement’s stated clause of halting fighting “on all fronts, including Lebanon.” 🔸 The dead: ➤ Ismail Allam was killed in Yater (Bint Jbeil) in an explosion whose cause, whether an Israeli strike, unexploded ordnance, or another suspicious object, remains under investigation. L’Orient Today described him as the first person killed in Lebanon since the deal took effect overnight. ➤ An Israeli drone later struck a car at the Kfar Tibnit roundabout, killing a person whose body was reportedly left unrecognizable, according to L’Orient Today. ➤ Earlier, an Israeli drone dropped a stun grenade on civilians walking toward Mansouri (Sour), killing one person and wounding several others. 🔸 A journalist targeted: ➤ Press TV correspondent Hadi Hoteit was wounded in Kfar Tibnit after an Israeli drone dropped a grenade that exploded less than a meter from him while he was reporting. Speaking from the hospital, Hoteit said Israel had deliberately targeted him. Video appears to show deliberate targeting as well. ➤ Lebanon’s photojournalists’ syndicate later urged journalists not to rush back into frontline areas, warning that “nothing is guaranteed.” 🔸 Ground incursions and clashes: ➤ Hezbollah said it “repelled” an Israeli force, including an excavator and two Merkava tanks, advancing from Arnoun toward Kfar Tibnit at around 6:15 p.m., using guided missiles and Ababil attack drones. ➤ Drop Site sources in the south reported Israeli forces attempting to push into Bra’shit, with tanks audible and a massive explosion reported in the village. Israeli troops were also said to be positioned near homes on the outskirts toward Beit Yahoun and Kounine. ➤ Israeli soldiers advanced and carried out sweeping fire toward Bouyout al-Sayyed near a UNIFIL position in the Sour district 🔸 Shelling, drones, and blocked roads: ➤ Israeli artillery struck the Ali al-Taher hills and a road near Zawtar al-Sharqieh, while the army detonated a large explosive device in Aita al-Jabal and, according to Lebanon’s National News Agency and Drop Site sources, detonated car bombs on the Haris-Tibnin road. ➤ Quadcopter drones were reported “dropping bombs,” while roads around Haris, Kafra, Haddatha, and Tebnine were described as too dangerous to travel.

BREAKING: Three things happened within hours on March 28 that nobody has connected. First. Iran’s IRGC claimed it destroyed a Ukrainian anti-drone system depot in the UAE. Ukraine’s foreign ministry immediately denied it: “This is a lie. We officially refute this information. The Iranian regime frequently carries out such disinformation campaigns.” Whether the strike occurred or not, the claim itself is the signal. Iran is publicly declaring that Ukrainian drone defence expertise in the Gulf is now a military target. Second. Israel confirmed the killing of Ali Shoeib, a veteran Al-Manar television correspondent in southern Lebanon. The IDF stated he was an operative in the intelligence unit of Hezbollah’s elite Radwan Force who “served as a terrorist under the guise of a journalist” while “consistently working to expose the locations of IDF troops.” He was broadcasting live from southern Lebanon three hours before the strike killed him per Times of Israel and Ynet. Third. Zelensky landed in Qatar and the UAE on the same day, signing defence cooperation agreements offering the same FPV interceptor technology that Iran’s IRGC just publicly threatened to destroy. Connect the three events and the architecture becomes visible. Iran’s proxy war is being dismantled simultaneously on two fronts by two countries that are not formally allied with each other. Israel is eliminating the intelligence layer in Lebanon. Ukraine is building the counter-drone layer across the Gulf. Both are targeting the same Iranian network from different angles. The Radwan Force that Shoeib served coordinates with Iranian Shahed drones in Lebanon. The same Shahed variant is attacking Ras Laffan in Qatar and military infrastructure in the UAE. The same Shahed is being countered by the Ukrainian FPV teams whose depot Iran claims to have destroyed in Dubai. One weapon. One network. Two countries dismantling it from opposite ends without a formal alliance between them. The Radwan Force that Shoeib embedded with is not a standalone militia. It is an IRGC-trained special operations brigade of 2,500 to 5,000 fighters with reconnaissance, intelligence, anti-tank, engineering, and assault subunits per Carnegie and Atlantic Council analyses. IDF strikes have killed over 200 Radwan operatives and multiple commanders in recent weeks per Times of Israel. The intelligence subunit Shoeib served used journalist credentials to map Israeli positions for the same targeting network that feeds Shahed launch coordinates. Shoeib was broadcasting live three hours before the strike. His camera was the weapon. The coordinates embedded in his footage were the payload. Al-Manar was the delivery system. Iran’s proxy architecture does not distinguish between media and military because it was never designed to. The journalist, the drone, the toll booth, the legislation. In this war, the instrument of destruction is always disguised as something else. And now Iran has announced, whether truthfully or as propaganda, that it considers Ukrainian counter-drone depots in the UAE to be legitimate military targets. This means Zelensky’s Gulf tour is not just a diplomatic exercise. It is an operational deployment into a theatre where Iran has publicly identified his teams as combatants. The $2,100 Sting interceptor is no longer an advisory export. It is a weapon Iran has acknowledged as a threat worth striking. The invisible front runs from Jezzine to Dubai. From a journalist’s camera to a drone depot. From Radwan intelligence to FPV interceptors. Two countries. One network. Zero alliance. Maximum convergence. Full analysis -
