Hezbullah issues a statement congratulating the attack, calling it an effort against Israeli crimes and a rebuttle to the Arab traitorous behavior towards the occupation.

It refrains from naming the shooters, unlike previous incidents, calls it "Independent Palestinian decision"

⋯ According to a statement by ISIS spokesman Abu Hamza Al-Qurashi (killed last month) which was ennoscriptd “God destroyed them and the unbelievers likewise” and broadcast by the Al-Furqan Foundation in 2020, ISIS announces a very important message that puts this week's events into perspectives...

The message highlights that ISIS is shifting focus to Palestine, and starting a new phase of operations in Israel.

⋯ “To a new stage”

Here is a translated excerpt of the new speech where ISIS announces its intent to carry operations against Jews in Israel to liberate Palestine.

⋯ Message can be heard here [Arabic], calls for a new phase of attacks and asks Wilayat Sina and Sham [Syria, Lebanon etc] to assist in the attacks against Jews in and out of Palestine and calls for using and testing chemical weapons.

⋯ To conclude this there are two points:

1- Beware of laying the foundation for ISIS in Palestine by giving it the PR it needs to recruit

2- One of the shooters had a brother in Israeli police, he might have started the operation at home considering his attack was on the Israeli police

In a plot twist, reports that the army arrested the Lebanese who allegedly was the one to capture the Syrian who participated in the murder in Ansar.

It was revealed that Mohammed Nasriddine, who was hailed as a hero, is a human smuggler between Lebanon and Syria.

Mohammed claims he lured and captured the Syrian criminal from Homs, Syria.

Updated reports indicate that the Syrian effort to nominate Hijazi was by the Syrian ambassador only, however the Syrian leadership opted to leave the decision to Hezbullah to nominate whoever on their list for the non-party shia candidate

Hezbullah's SG have recently met Hijazi

⋯ Hijazi's only relevance to the political scene in Lebanon is that he is now the head of the Baath political party in Lebanon.

The Baath has a supporter base of a couple tens of thousands.
