🇮🇱❌🇵🇸 — Homicide rates in the Israeli Arab (Palestinians within green line) community has tripled over the last decade.

➡️In 2023, there were 233 homicides in Arab communities, a sharp rise from 109 in 2022, making the ratio of Israeli Jews homicide rates, in comparison to Arab homicide rates, around 13:1. For contrast, in 2019, the homicide rate among Black Americans was eight times higher than that of White Americans.

➡️When compared internationally, the homicide rate in Israel's Arab population is among the highest in high-income countries. By 2023 Israeli Arabs have ranked third, behind only Mexico and Colombia.

🇮🇷❌🇮🇱🇺🇸 — Top Trump official passes on giving IDF real bunker buster to strike Iran.

➡️The U.S. Middle East envoy, Steve Witkoff, discussed Israel’s request for 30,000-pound bunker-buster bombs (MOAB) to target Iran’s underground nuclear sites, like Fordow.

➡️Israel already has 2,000-pound bunker-buster bombs. However, these are not powerful enough to reach deeply buried targets like Fordow.

➡️Despite Israel’s repeated requests since the Bush administration since 2000, no U.S. president, including Trump during his first term, has approved the sale of these bombs.

This image was taken from a report produced by The Harmon Centre.

The Harmoon report highlights the growing risk of ground escalation in Syria as Israeli operations intensify against Iranian and Hezbollah elements. Israel’s recent shift from routine airstrikes to more direct military actions suggests a willingness to take greater risks in disrupting Iranian entrenchment.

The report suggests that, Iran and Hezbollah continue to strengthen their foothold, embedding personnel within Syrian army units and reinforcing supply lines.

With Russia’s reduced military oversight in Syria due to its focus on Ukraine (especially from the aspect air defence), the likelihood of direct clashes between Israeli and Iranian-backed forces has increased. This also raises concerns that Israeli escalation could potential spill over into Lebanon or Iraq, leading to a broader regional conflict, the report suggests.

The report outlines two potential outcomes:

The first is a continued strategy of containment, where Israel relies on airstrikes and special operations to slow Iranian influence while avoiding direct ground conflict.

The second, more riskier outcome is a shift toward preemptive military action, including strikes on key Iranian commanders and logistical hubs, which could provoke a direct Iranian response. This scenario risks triggering a full-scale confrontation, potentially drawing in Hezbollah and other resistance groups across the region.
