Forget the airstrikes, this would be the second known Israeli assassination in Lebanon after the war.

1- The murder of the head of the Beqaa region in Hezbullah. The Mossad had sent Lebanese or Syrian gunmen. Lebanese security forces didn't arrest any yet.

2- This fighter who is local to the the town. He might have went up the ranks eventually, but targeting him like this means the IDF wanted to "close a circle" aka take revenge for something he did.

They using an IED means they personally were in the location. Which means the Lebanese army failed to clear the area before asking people to come and failed to secure it from infiltrations.

๐Ÿฅ€ Abbas's funeral to be announced soon.

His funeral will take place alongside his daughters, whom the Jews murdered today in cold blood.
Remember this photo where one was blurred and a story was narrated about him surviving and the ambush that killed several Israeli soldiers

The blurred guy is who they killed today.

A Hezbullah fighter said:
"Many brothers were destined by God to be among the survivors after the war and on the borders, and they stood firm, faced it, and remained alive. I wish they would no longer talk about anything related to the battle, their work, and what happened, especially anyone with a cell phone or anything else. I'm confident he was killed today because of this"

Please people we already said. Stay silent, not even talk among family.

They are firing suicide drones, 122mm rockets and heavy guns.

โ€”โ—๏ธ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ท/๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ Supreme Leader of the Islamic Republic of Iran, Ayatollah Khamenei: 'Negotiations with the United States are useless, and will not benefit the country in any way'

In his speech today, the Supreme Leader once again emphasized that negotiating with the U.S. is not of any benefit to the Iranian nation:

'For some time now, you have been hearing, in newspapers, in cyberspace, and in the words of various people, that there is discussion about negotiations with America.

They mention the word 'negotiation', saying, 'Sir, negotiation is a good thing,' as if someone is opposed to the goodness of negotiation. Today, the Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs is one of the busiest foreign ministries globally. That is its job, after all. It negotiates with countries around the world โ€” Eastern, Western, all kinds โ€” it travels back and forth, speaks, and signs agreements.

The exception that exists is America. Of course, I do not mention the Zionist regime because it is not a real country. The Zionist regime is a gang of criminals who came and occupied a land and are committing crimes. That is not a subject of discussion. The exception is America. Why is it an exception? What is the reason?

Negotiating with America has no effect on solving the country's problems. We must understand this. They should not make it seem as if sitting at the table with that government will solve this or that problem. No, not at all.

No problem is solved through negotiations with America. The reason? Experience. In the 2010's, we sat down and negotiated with America for about two years. A treaty was formed with them (JCPOA).

Our government sat down and negotiated. They went, came, sat, stood, negotiated, talked, laughed, shook hands, became friends โ€” they did everything. A treaty was formed. In this treaty, the Iranian side was very generous. It gave many concessions to the other side. But the Americans did not implement the treaty.

The very person who is now in office [Trump] tore up this treaty. He said, 'I will tear it up,' and he did. Even before he came, those with whom this treaty was signed did not implement it. The treaty was meant to lift U.S. sanctions. The U.S. sanctions were not lifted at all.

We should learn from this experience. We gave concessions, we negotiated, we compromised, but we did not achieve any result. That is what happened. Even this treaty, with all the concessions we gave, was still undermined, violated, and torn apart by the other side.

Negotiating with such a government should not be done. Negotiation with them is neither wise, nor intelligent, nor honorable. We must solve our problems internally, not relying on outside factors.

As for the Americans, they comment on us, they talk, they express their opinions, they issue threats. If they threaten us, we will threaten them. If they carry out their threat, we will carry out our threat as well. If they violate the security of our nation, we will undoubtedly violate their security as well. This is our duty.'

๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡ง Lebanese security forces arrested one of the most infamous Lebanese captagon manufacturer, nicknamed Abu-Khalid from the town of Arsal.

This took place after the security forces uncovered that he wasn't the one arrested in 2015 and is in prison now, but someone he paid to be in his place.

He traveled frequently between Lebanon and Syria, and was part of the network that exported to Arab states.

๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡งl๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡พ Rocket artillery from Lebanon towards the Syrian army.

Let's be clear, there is no resistance inside the Syrian towns, no clashes there with the Lebanese although these towns had a decades old Lebanese presence because of marriage and trade.

The Syrian aggression is targeting Lebanese towns, and this is where clashes are ongoing from a far.

So far, there are some Syrians who were deported to the grave. Only few Lebanese injuries reported so far.

The Syrians are capable, so don't underestimate them.

๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡งl๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡พ President Aoun called Syrian President Ahmad al-Sharaa to congratulate him and they agreed to coordinate to control the situation on the Lebanese-Syrian border and prevent targeting civilians.

This is the second time such calls take place. This won't solve it snd the Syrians will aggress again.

There should be a suitable Lebanese Syrian dialogue to end this and mark the area and coordinate, else, the Lebanese army should play its role.

Because if they aren't suitable for southern borders or eastern borders, what is there role?
