Tonight, the state of Israel is celebrating the 18-year-long occupation of Lebanon and officially labeling it as a war.

Medals and ribbons were handed to thousands who participated in this crime that killed and injured up to 100,000 civilians.
The Lebanese Lira, after a relative stability at 12,000 LL to 1$, has resumed deteriorating, down to 14,075 LL to 1$.

That is 9.2x the official rate of 1515 LL to 1$.
After last week's episode of three Merkava-4 tanks and dozens of soldiers failing to remove a few Hezbollah flags on the border fence, IDF tried it again with another force of tanks and armoured personnel carrier (APCs).

Dogs and jamming equipment were also deployed.

Sayyed Hasan Nasrallah about the fuel shortages in Lebanon:”the Iranian offer is still on the table (oil in LBP), if the state doesn’t solve the problem, we will bring our own tankers to the port of Beirut and we dare anyone to stop it.”

🛢💵 As Sayyed Nasrallah and Iran announced, the imports of fuel will be in Lebanese pounds, helping save the Lebanese economy whose reserves in foreign currency are depleted. The subsidy on fuel is crucial to all Lebanese.

Iran won't sacrifice its economy for Lebanon's sake, since it will reduce the financial contributions in foreign currency (dollar) to Hezbullah. Instead, payments will be made in Lebanese currency at the market exchange rate. Iran's foreign reverses will be preserved, money will keep circulating.

Iran pays a large sum of Hezbullah salaries. Hezbullah has 30,000 paid employees, at an average of 600$, this is about 220 million dollars a year.

The recent Alma report about exposing Hezbullah "Rabat" officials in south Lebanon is rather funny and pathetic.

Rabats are public figures in villages, known to organize all public activity. Their names and images are on Facebook pages.
The man they exposed can be found on the village's official page giving a COVID-19 message to the locals.

Other images exist online.
Hopefully soon I'll start with a small research paper about the Syrian conflict and its implications on the general Sunni political conscious in Palestine.

I'm still undecided in what language to do it, especially that I hope it can reach fellow Palestinians.
🚨 IDF aggression on Syria just minutes after jets were heard over south Lebanon.
IDF missiles allegedly fired from over Keserwan, Lebanon.

The explosions heard in south Lebanon were of Syrian AD.
According to initial news, yesterday's Israeli aggression on Syria stroke a scientific research base and ammunition warehouses in Homs.

It killed 8 people, among them a colonel, an engineer and several SAA soldiers and NDF fighters.
The issue with Syrian MoD's statement (hiding the martyrs) stems from backward mentality. It plagues all former Soviet and Russian allies, and it is disturbing, unethical and a display of weakness.

Russia's MoD too, keeps on hiding the names and numbers of fallen Russian soldiers in Syria. They are buried in secrecy, barely reaching news.

With regards to Syria, the most disturbing happened when General Muhammad Suleiman died. A pillar in the Syrian army, he was a unique commander who understood (unlike his pairs) the need to improve and work harder. Israel killed him in 2008, the same year they killed Imad Moghnieh. While Imad is commemorated, Suleiman is barely heard of.
Funeral of the fallen soldiers after the Israeli aggression on Syria yesterday.
