📹 Despite the ceasefire, despite the war ending, despite Lebanon's adherence and the fall of Assad...

The IDF attacked tonight several locations in Janta and Beqaa area, targeting locations they claimed "posed a threat" to the Israeli home front....some 200+ km away.

They claim attacking border crossing with Syria, weapon facilities, and underground manufacturing sites.

This grave aggression is unacceptable. We are not in an active war. The whole government and army should be mobilized to condemn them and pressure foreign mediators

📹 Similar to last time, an unofficial road between Lebanon and Syria was attacked.

The thing is, like last time, these exact roads were in Wadi Khaled and other sunni towns and not used by Hezbullah.

They are used by locals to smuggle Lebanese fuel and goods to Syria.

🥀 However, the other attack on Janta murdered 2 and injured 10 others.

Janta is a Lebanese Shia area, close to Hezbullah.

📹 Similar to last time, an unofficial road between Lebanon and Syria was attacked.
📸 As for the other road...

Israeli warplanes cut off the main road linking Syria to Lebanon, which links the Lebanese town of Tufail to the Syrian town of Assal al-Ward in western Qalamoun.

The raid created a seven-meter-deep hole and cut off the main road, damaged voltage poles, and cut off the power lines between Syria and Lebanon.

🇱🇧l🇺🇸 Deputy US Middle East envoy Morgan Ortagus began her first visit to Lebanon yesterday with a meeting with the head of the ceasefire monitoring committee, US General Jasper Jeffers, at the US embassy.

A new date for the committee’s meeting, which has been suspended for about two weeks, has not yet been announced.

There has also been no indication of any guarantees that the Israeli occupation forces will be obligated to withdraw by February 18 and that they will be forced to stop their continued attacks.

She's a hardcore Zionist Jew assigned in a role in a region where there is only one Jewish state vs dozens of Arab Muslim ones.

Ffs is there only Jews in the U.S.? For them to always take most portfolios? She is the successor of Amos.

Amos was better. Just go check her Twitter Account.

Let's be very clear because the situation is this unstable, for us and for Palestinians but that's a different topic.

Aoun and the Lebanese government accepted the extension of Israeli presence for 22 days to 18-Feb, weakening the ceasefire agreement that explicitly announced Israelis will stay at most 60-days.

By weakening the ceasefire agreement and accepting an extension, they opened the path for Israelis to ask for additional extensions which the U.S. Jewish administration will happily accept and then pressure Lebanon to adopt.

Let's be very clear here. After 18-Feb, will Aoun and whoever is a PM accept a new extension? How they will act of no extension is agreed on?

Hezbullah already said they refuse the extension, but didn't act because they are both in not a favorable situation to act and because they want to give the state additional time to achieve the results that would be optimal to everyone. For the state's backers, for the withdrawal, for the end of conflict, etc....

Withdrawal has signs. We are seeing none. Will they continue to act as everything is normal while Israel violates the ceasefire even on terms excluding the withdrawal part?

The attack on Beqaa is an act of war. The area is neither south of the Litani river, nor any active weapon. Attacking roads for alleged claimed smuggling is unacceptable, let alone attacking and killing people in Janta.

That all aside, as a Lebanese Shia it only drives me closer to supporting Hezbullah when I see that many Lebanese not only justifying the Israeli presence and attacks in Lebanon or mocking the airstrikes on us, but those who are openly calling for stripping us from our jobs, including in the Lebanese state, putting our leaders in prisons and shockingly saying they hoped Israel continued the war and actually ended us (exterminated us)

Each of these words are documented in hundreds of tweets and TV interviews from Lebanese journalists, politicians, and locals.

See, I don't ask Hezbullah of anything but becoming stronger.

EXCLUSIVE: Elizabeth Tsurkov visited Lebanon illegally for 3 months

Lebanese security services are conducting investigations to identify the individuals with whom Tsurkov, who served in Israeli military intelligence during the war on Lebanon, may have communicated
Remember Elizabeth the Russian-Israeli who was kidnaped in Iraq?

I'm not sure exactly what's happening but Israeli media is hinting that Iraqi friends gave her up to Hezbullah as a negotiation token to exchange her release in return to returning Hezbullah's POWs who were captured during the 66-day war on Lebanon.

What I didn't quite understand yet, is what operation the Israelis are talking about to free her in Lebanon, something they described as a "dangerous operation deep in Lebanon"
