U.S. defense stocks surge amid Israel-Gaza war.

US administration sent messages through diplomatic channels to Lebanon to Hezbollah:

"Hezbollah needs to stay out of the picture. Because if there is a war - Lebanon as a country will be damaged and hurt by Israel".

Hezbullah's response to the death of three of its fighter was relatively too tame and unexpected.

It's unclear if Hezbullah is adamant at not being dragged into a war that will bring great damage to Lebanon, or simply doesn't want to get involved until the Israeli army is in midst of the ground operation in Gaza.

A rocket was fired at an Israeli base facing Rmeish, Lebanon.

Israel is responding with artillery.

🔴 No truth to an alleged footage of an Hamas execution. The ISIS logo was blurred from it.

The Israeli Druze soldier is seen in this old video being shouted at by a Hezbullah intelligence member, telling him:

"Don't dare repeat your mistake like last time."

Video showing the ATGM attack against the Israeli base live on TV.

Gaza: Israeli attacks continue with intensity against Khan Younis.

Several ambulances were attacked.
(Update: footage)

Al-Manar reporter claims this was one of 5 ATGM rockets fired at the base earlier, and already taken credit for by Hezbullah in their earlier statement.

Despite that, there are reports of an incident in the south.

Saudi Crown Prince calls the president of the Palestinian Authority and the King of Jordan, to stress on the need to stop the military conflict that puts the lives of innocent people and stability at risk.

Ben Salman also states his support to the right of the Palestinians to establish a state under the Arab peace initiative.

IDF have issued text messages and voice notes to residents of Abu Al-Hasan Tower in Al-Ramal Neighbourhood to evacuate.

There has been an increase in roof-knocks and calls to residents, after the threat by Hamas to execute prisoners if the IDF continues to target civilians at homes.

NEW: Joint Statement on Israel from the US, UK, France, Germany, and Italy:

Today, we express our steadfast and united support to the State of Israel, and our unequivocal condemnation of Hamas and its appalling acts of terrorism.

CNN: The US is offering Israel special operations planning and intelligence support, a US defense official tells the network.

The support would not entail US troops on the ground in Israel. Instead, the assistance would come in the form of intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance. 

Al-Quds Brigades - Lebanon

It is with great pride that the PIJ in its military arm, mourn the two martyrs in Lebanon:

- Riyad Muhammad Qiblawi from Ain al-Hilweh camp

- Hamza Hassan Musa from Burj Al-Shamali camp

Israel's Dahyeh doctrine: when using TERROR is kosher

In 2008, General Eizenkot outlined what he called the “Dahyeh doctrine” as an extreme degree of “deterrence by punishment”. He warned that IDF's large-scale destruction of civilian-only assets and terror inflicted in 2006 to one million residents in Beirut's Dahyeh suburb shall be renewed.

“We will apply disproportionate force [on the south of Lebanon]”, Eizenkot said, “These are not civilian villages.”

Ronen Bergman mentions the “historical continuity” of this doctrine that is de facto Jewish terrorism.

🚨 Violent and continuous bombing by US-funded Israeli warplanes on central and northern Gaza.

🚨 For the fourth day in a row, resistance fighters invade settlements around Gaza under the cover of the night and rocket fire despite most intense airstrikes. A fierce clash happened in "Sa'ad" and "Kfar Azza," which were rushed by resistance fighters in four-wheeler vehicles. Homes were successfully infiltrated in "Sa'ad".
