📹 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.

📷 The destruction caused by the Israeli army in Nour Shams camp in Tulkarm after more than two days after the aggression against it.

After the intifada and before 7-October, we would never have seen such scenes.

📷 Locals in Deir al-Balah camp in Gaza gather to inspect the damages caused from an Israeli air raid at dawn today, which killed 14 from Hamouda family.

This was one of many attacks that targeted full families, as such are most cases where refugees gather at one or few family houses in the alleged remaining safe zones.

📑 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.

🩸 Israel murders a victim in Gaza, to only murder the guys who arrived to help

In Deir Balah on 1 January, a civilian received a call from the Israeli army to flee to a "safe zone". He compiles, packs, and goes through the road designated for him.

The moment he reaches a road junction, he was attacked by a drone or a tank shell. He was killed.

His brother rushes to retrieve him. Save or evacuate him if still alive, but he was also murdered.

Their cousin rushes to save them. He was killed.

When Hezbullah's SG said yesterday to just wait and see how Israeli politicians will go berserk on each other after the war, he knew exactly what he was talking about it.

The divisions before the war didn't disappear and only got worse. Jews are only temporary united for the sake of the lust in the ongoing blood shed in Gaza now.

Yesterday, the Israeli cabinet meeting was just put to an end after 3 hours by Netanyahu after Likud and Otzma Yehudit ministers aggressively attacked the IDF Chief of Staff Halevi.

Then, came to his aid the Defense Minister Gallant and war cabinet member Gantz.

It was a total chaos, during the discussion of the "the next day", where investigations will take place and responsibilities alongside blame directed at some.

The discussion heated when the army officially decides to set up an internal investigation commission for the 7/10 failures, headed by former general and defense minister Shaul Mofaz, alongside others.

The debate's trannoscription, part 1/2:

Minister Regev: Has an investigation committee been established in the army on the 7.10 failures?

Chief of Staff: Now we are busy fighting

Regev: You didn't answer my question

Minister Shasha Biton: The man told you once, one more time, five times - what are you attacking him for?

Smoritch: I have a full stomach [I'm ready to take down] for the army and I am silent now but waiting for the war to end [to act].

Shasha: You have a full stomach for the army and the political level, don't you?

Smoritch: From now on, the political echelon is the one that has to dictate policy to the army

Shasha: Yes, only the army was here in last year [in power]. You, the government, were not here

Amsalem: Aren't you ashamed?

Shasha : No

Gallant : Listen, you're sitting here in the middle of a war fighting the military personnel who are waging a war [on your behalf]and that's all what you're busy with?

Ben Gvir: The concept again. You bring the disengagement people to investigate the failure

Part 2/2

Gantz: How we missed you, we saw how the security situation in the country improved [sarcasticall] during your tenture. The Chief of Staff is talking to you, doing a fucking investigation on what is needed from a military point of view to serve the war, these are the conclusions that are needed for now

Chief of Staff Halevi tried to fend off the ministers' criticism: something happened here that the army should learn from. Tomorrow, if an incident happens in another sector [Lebanon] we want to understand what went wrong in the chain of command. I am not doing the investigation with the national conclusions, but an investigation by the army [internal].

⚠️ Senior Hamas military and political leader Saleh Al-Arouri has been killed in Beirut, in an Israeli assassination.
📖 Something that went under the radar, but it seems that the apartment which was targeted to kill Hamas leader in Beirut, Sheikh Saleh Al-Arouri, was a known office for the group.

At least known for Israel.

The office was fully evacuated on the 7th of October, and was only used again the night of the assassination. The attack killed 4 Palestinians and 3 Lebanese Sunnis affiliated with Hamas.

The office was first discovered publicly, some time ago, in the Lebanese security forces' trannoscripts of investigations with spies arrested in Lebanon, who worked for the Mossad.

📑 Israel closes all roads in Gaza which were designated for few hours every other timeframe for evacuating areas, and shut down Salah Eddine road for good.

All attempts to move away from conflict zones is now routed to the coastal road, which the Israeli navy is attacking non-stop.

You can go there if you survive moving from inside the cities through the open lands and abandoned areas on daring roads towards that area.

Movement is all directed towards the Egyptian border. No movement allowed to north, central, or southern Gaza only.
