🚨 Hezbullah statement on their ATGM attack:

“In response to the Israeli attacks that targeted a number of observation points affiliated with the Islamic Resistance, our fighters this evening targeted an Israeli Zelda M-113 APC at the Al-Sadah site west of the town of Salha (the colony called Avivim) with two guided missiles, and it was hit and completely destroyed.”

APC: armored personnel carrier

🚨 Israel's Shin Bet security agency names another three members killed in Hamas attacks, totalling 8 since the war began.

They are aged 36, 26 (killed while fighting) and 38 (killed in her home).

🚨 Israeli death toll rises to 1,000, with over 2,900 wounded according to public broadcaster Kan.

🚨 The Palestinian Ministry of Health in Gaza announces 850 martyrs and 4,250 wounded.

Earlier, IDF said it has killed 1,500 Palestinian fighters in Israeli territory.

🔴 Biden threatening:

“Let me say again. Any country, any organization, anyone thinking of taking advantage of this situation... I have one word: DON'T. DON'T.”

Context:

The US has credible information that Hezbullah is considering joining the war, taking advantage of the shock the IDF is facing to cause a blow to the northern settlements.

However, they are waiting for justifiable context to involve Lebanon.

The US estimates that the Israeli army will be unable to fight on two fronts, especially the northern where Hezbullah capabilities are folds better then Hamas's.

The US estimates a credible existential threat to the statehood of Israel if Hezbullah and other allies join.

The group's war doctrine is to annihilate the Israeli army.

In Hezbullah's understanding, the upcoming war has to be the the one that seriously puts a nail in the coffin in Israel's statehood. However such war will be too costly, thus they have to analyse well when to pay the price.

🚨 900 Palestinians have been announced martyred.

In a couple of days, the casualties in Gaza will surpass those of the Israelis.

The Israeli army has been clear on its goal to punish and kill Gazans, and has been given the greenlight by all Western Nations.

The death toll faced by Israel is shocking to the world, and a huge success to the Palestinians. Thus in their (Palestinians) calculation, a few folds more Palestinians dead to kill that many Israelis and then liberate thousands of prisoners, is a good price to be paid.

I would like to note something important. After the war ends, the casualties in Gaza will witness a sudden increase when Hamas and PIJ announce their casualties, of whom many are lost in Israel and some underground.

It's estimated that several hundreds are dead and their bodies are in Israeli possession.

After the first wave of attacks that involved less then a 100 Hamas fighter, the shocking success and ease, drove hundreds of soldiers from many factions alongside dozens of civilians and journalists into Israeli territory.

Most of those were killed while loitering in the settlements or fighting. Many were killed retreating back to Gaza and vice versa.

🚨 The Israeli police clashes with an Israeli citizen in Ashdod, each thinking the other was an Arab.

Two police officers were injured. The Israeli citizen is gravely wounded.

Israeli defense official on Channel 13,

"Gaza will turn into a tent city, no buildings will remain."

🚨 Mortars were fired from Syria towards the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights.

Head of the Eshkol Regional Council (southern Israel):

“I estimate that we have more than 200 missing and abducted in the communities of the council."

Now: Many dead children were retrieved from under a rubble in the aftermath of an Israeli airstrike in Gaza.

It's estimated that up to 150 children were killed by the Israeli army.

Update: Ongoing Israeli attack in Syria in retaliation for the mortars.

Various Lebanese politicians, including Hezbullah's friend Gebran Basil, call on the security forces to deny Palestinians the right to use Lebanese land to attack Israel, in concern of dragging the country into the ongoing conflict.

🚨 US Secretary of State Blinken will arrive in Israel on Thursday to discuss the war in Gaza and U.S. aid to Israel.

The U.S. is expected to offer more military and financial aid.
