📹 During the funeral, various leaders gave a statement, including Hezbullah's official responsible for the Palestinian portfolio.

🗣️ Additionally, Ismail Hanieh gave a statement, where he tackled various topics including:

- Today, Palestine and Lebanon bid farewell, along with the people of the nation, to strong men who fought battles in all fields.

- The assassination of the martyr in the heart of the capital, Beirut, is evidence of the bloody mentality of the occupation and its approach for decades.

- Al-Arouri carried the trust and raised the flag as a leader in our jihadist movement and at the head of the leadership of the West Bank, where he charted strategic paths.

- The West Bank faces multiple challenges from the enemy, from near and far, and Al-Arouri succeeded in resuming resistance there.

- Assassination is an Israeli policy for long as it also affected the leadership of the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon [Hezbullah], with the cases like Sayyed Abbas Al-Moussawi

📝 Genuinely glad to see some Hezbullah flags, despite the deeply rooted hate it faces from many in that area and probably many from the attendees. Something I think is hypocrisy above simple sectarian and political ignorance.

📌 Hezbullah's military media taunts Israel, reiterates its SG's threat to punish Israel for the crime of attacking Beirut and murdering Sheikh Saleh Al-Arouri.

📑 Al-Mayadeen claims that they got insider info, that 4 Israeli soldiers were killed and another 11 injured by Hezbullah.

There is no confirmation or any news that implies this in Israel.

📹 Hezbullah release footage of an attack on a group of Israeli soldiers in Al-Marj area on 2 January.

Footage shows an ATGM impact against two soldiers who were walking on the road, to only drop (dead).

This is followed by the movement of other soldiers that come to their rescue.

The Israeli army claimed only two light injuries in Hezbullah's 10 attacks that day.

📑 US military drafts plans for war with the Axis of the Resistance

Biden administration officials are drawing up plans for the U.S. to respond to what they’re increasingly concerned could expand from a war in Gaza to a wider, protracted regional conflict.

Four officials familiar with the matter, including a senior administration official, described internal conversations about scenarios that could potentially draw the U.S. into another Middle East war. 

The potential for wider conflict is growing, officials said, following a series of confrontations in Iraq, Lebanon and Iran over the past several days.

Those have convinced some in the administration that the war in Gaza has officially escalated far beyond the strip’s borders — a scenario the U.S. has tried to avoid for months.

Tensions in the region ratcheted up even higher on Thursday after the Biden administration launched a drone strike in Baghdad that killed leader Mushtaq Taleb al-Saidi, or “Abu Taqwa,” and at least one other militant, according to two Defense Department officials.

The scramble inside the administration to draw up reports on potential points of attacks and possible U.S. responses this week came as a result of orders from the top echelons of the administration over fears that the violence in the region will only continue to grow and that Washington will eventually have to intervene.

🌷Israeli forces executed 17 y/o Usaid Rimawi, and critically injured two other men, who tried to help him during a raid into Beit Rima in Ramallah overnight.

All three were clearly unarmed and posed no threat to the Israeli occupational forces.

The vehicles seen in the video are US funded and supplied.

📷 "The battle in Gaza is a war over the Temple Mount" - written by Israeli soldiers on the roof of a Palestinian house in Gaza.

You'd be lying to yourself if you don't acknowledge that Israel is religiously driven in its campaign of aggression and terror in Gaza.
