Anniversary of the July War:

In the July War, the resistance fighters in the city of Ghandouriya in southern Lebanon were able to capture several Spike missiles that were left by Zionist soldiers who fled.

The system and missile was then transfered to Iran, to create Iran's model of a Spike top-attack ATGM.
I've also read in hebrew media that a whole case of these ATGMs were lost by the IDF in 2006, when a parachute deployment of the system went wrong.
Iranain mines and a small explanation of what is known:

1- Anti-personnel directional mine with thousands of metal balls.

2- Anti-vehicle and anti-building (to kill personnel) EFP mine.

3- Long range anti-personnel directional mine.
4- Copy of the Russian OZM mine.

5- Iranian anti-personnel landmine. YM1

6- Anti-tank / vehicle landmine

7- Anti-personnel mine. Jumps in the air like an OZM and detonates in a 360 degree like an OZM.

A German court in Saxony-Anhalt has issued a 15-year prison sentence against Lebanese-Palestinian Tawfiq Al-Masri (who also holds German and British citizenship) on charges of financing the resistance in Palestine and Lebanon and participating in Quds Day Rally.

Sanctions on political class?

The French ambassador in Beirut Anne Grillo and the American ambassador Dorothy Shea will together visit Saudi Arabia to talk with regional and international partners to put pressure on Lebanese officials and coordinate aid to Lebanese security forces.
Hopefully last time I have to say this.

I'm not a news agency, I'm just one man translating Lebanese and MENA news from Arabic accounts to English. I do not own the reports, unless I specify so, and I usually add the source if it's by small accounts not news agencies.

Purpose of this account is to provide Lebanese news to those outside Lebanon and eventually counter zionist and western propaganda.

It's as simple as that. So please, don't point out the source of my news, I never claimed any is mine especially when I'm translating from agencies
From the tragedies of the civil war is the Safra massacre (7 ⁠July 1980), and with this tragedy, the story of this photo presented by the Lebanese News Agency (affiliated with the Kataeb party) showing “Pakistani and Egyptian mercenaries".

As soon as it was published, the families of those missing in the war however recognized their relatives. Lebanese relatives.

It turned out that most of them were prisoners from the area of ​​Tel Zaatar and Nabaa who had been kidnapped by the Phalanges since 1976. Some parents were fortunate, had relations back then, and freed some. However, the majority couldn't do a thing. Many were executed, while others were handed as prisoners to Israel. They have been lost since then.
