❗️🇸🇾 BREAKING: The suicide attack on Imam Ali mosque in Homs, which left 8 people dead, has been claimed by 'Saraya Ahl Al-Sunnah'

Sayara Ahl Al-Sunnah is a Syrian terrorist organization that split from Hay'at Tahrir Al-Sham (HTS) in February 2025, less than a year ago.

This is the same group that carried out a suicide bombing against the Mar Elias Greek Orthodox Church in Damascus earlier this year, killing 30 Christian worshippers.

So, we are all just supposed to believe this is an 'offshoot' of HTS, even though they were the exact same thing less than a year ago?

These are the same guys that were involved in the Alawite coastal massacres too btw.

A freak state recognizing another split freak state.

Remarkable not for being the only one, but because it is close to Yemen. And that is the key why Israel is interested in the horn of Africa

Locals in Beit Yahoun allowed the Lebanese army to search 4 houses in town without judicial orders after the army was barked at by Israel through the mechanism to search the houses for weapons

This is the 5-6th house searched in the past two weeks that didn't contain any weapons or military means

The Lebanese army also searched houses in Kuneen and Beit lief. Nothing found.

The Lebanese army should be public about such actions and issue official statements

🇮🇷| President of Iran, in an interview with the leader’s media office:

We are in an all-out war with America, Israel and Europe. This war is worse than the war Iraq waged against us.

But we will overcome all difficulties, including sanctions.

Until yesterday, they were saying Iran could collapse in 12 days, now they claim 36 months. If we stand together, they can’t do a damn, even in 36,000 years.

We are now militarily stronger than we were at the time when the enemies attacked Iran.

If they want to engage, they will naturally face a more decisive response.

Their hope is that something must happen from within (riots, protests) so that they can come and start an intervention.

🇮🇷| Iran’s FM, Araghchi:

If abandoning enrichment was ever on the table, a deal would have been reached years ago, and war might have been avoided.

But Tehran will never surrender its lawful rights or bow to US pressure.

Similar to everyday, Israeli army soldiers continue to fire bullets at civilian homes in the border towns, especially Kafarshouba

The bullets penetrates the walls and glass and almost hit the family there

This daily terrorism isn't considered a breach of the ceasefire and is underreported.

Similar to yesterday, The Lebanese army inspected 7 houses in Bint Jbeil (5 destroyed and 2 inhabited) and 6 inhabited houses in Aynatha

This happens even though the Lebanese Army command said they won't inspect houses without legal justification from a Lebanese court

They claim so but then arrive at a house and tell the owner: Israel said we have to search here and if we don't, they will bomb you

They are working like guard dogs for Israel through the mechanism unfortunately

None of the houses had weapons or any military gear

Today: Sheikh Naim Qassem:

"Don't ask anything of us anymore. The state is not required to be Israel's policeman, nor to be without sovereignty."
👍25🫡12👎6🤬3👀3
Highlights from the speech of the Secretary-General of Hezbollah, His Eminence Sheikh Naim Qassem, at the commemorative ceremony on the occasion of one year since the martyrdom of the great jihadi founding commander Haj Mohammad Hassan Yaghi “Abu Saleem”:

– Haj Abu Saleem, from his earliest youth, was on the path of authentic Islam.
– He was among the first to receive the Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and was chosen by the Shura as a Hezbollah parliamentary representative for the Baalbek–Hermel region from 1992–1996 and from 2000–2005.
– His foremost role models were the Grand Marja’ Sayyed Mohammad Baqir Al-Sadr, Imam Sayyed Musa Al-Sadr, Imam Khomeini, and Imam Khamenei.
– Abu Saleem Yaghi grew in an environment surrounded by leading scholars, which deeply shaped his intellectual and jihadi journey.
– The resistance path formed the core of his life; he was a field commander who dedicated himself fully to confrontation and defense.
– He aspired to be among the soldiers of Imam Al-Mahdi (May Allah hasten his reappearance), directing his entire life toward upholding the word of truth.
– He spent his lifetime carrying the concerns of the people, particularly the poor, and supporting the fighters and the resistance.
– He represented a model of the believing, mission-driven, courageous man, marked by high social awareness — a true reflection of the Bekaa people’s embrace of the resistance, honor, pride, and dignity.
– The founding of Hezbollah began from the Baalbek–Hermel region, whose sons were among the first to offer sacrifices and blood.
– Abu Saleem Yaghi was a dear brother from the founding generation and was a figure of trust for The Master of the Ummah’s Martyrs, His Eminence Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah (May Allah’s blessings be upon him).

– We congratulate the Christians of Lebanon and the world on the birth of the Prophet Issa (Peace be upon him), hoping that his divine teachings prevail over this global space and direct the world toward virtues and moral values we are most in need of.
– We are proud that the Bekaa stands at the forefront of defending the South and all of Lebanon.
– I extend condolences on the passing of Sheikh Reda Mahdi, who had a remarkable role in education and religious guidance in West Beirut.
– Lebanon today lies at the heart of the storm and instability, caused by the oppressive U.S. policies and the “Israeli” enemy.
– The United States sponsored corruption in Lebanon, protected its symbols, and since 2019 worked to sabotage the economic situation, seeking to impose tutelage, and today controls many joints of the state.
– The “Israeli” aggression on Lebanon has not stopped despite the 2024 agreement.
– Hezbollah’s path in Lebanon has always been radiant and shining.
– Hezbollah and the Islamic Resistance liberated Lebanon — not only the South — in cooperation with various factions and with the support of the Lebanese Army and the people.
– Hezbollah’s performance in parliamentary, governmental, and public fields was marked by clean hands.
– Hezbollah contributed to the building of the Lebanese state.
– Serving the people is the basis and essence of Hezbollah’s path.
– The biography, role, and standing of Hezbollah are all great and honorable — in ethics, work, politics, resistance, liberation, and state-building.
– We are today at a decisive historic juncture: either we grant the United States and “Israel” full guardianship over Lebanon, or we rise nationally to reclaim our sovereignty, our land, and build our nation and state.
– Disarmament is an “Israeli”–American project, even if currently marketed under the noscript of “the exclusivity of weapons.”
– Calling for exclusive arms while “Israel” continues its aggression on Lebanon means those behind such proposals are not working in Lebanon’s interest, but rather serving “Israel.”
🫡15👎5👍4
– Disarmament is part of a project targeting the dismantling of Lebanon’s military capability, weakening a powerful segment of the Lebanese, and fueling division with the Amal Movement.
– Disarmament falls within a scheme to incite strife between the resistance and the people and to maintain occupation in the five points, allowing continued killing without accountability.
– “Israel” occupies — but the question is: until when?
– The occupation faces setbacks; we have a 42-year experience during which we thwarted what “Israel” sought to impose.
– The state succeeded in Lebanon because a resistance existed; it failed in Syria because there was no resistance.
– More than a year has passed since the agreement; the Lebanese side provided commitments and concessions, while the “Israeli” enemy continues relentless violations.
– The Lebanese government added free concessions, while “Israel” offered nothing in return.
– I am surprised by those who do not see what is required from “Israel,” but instead try to interpret the agreement by placing more demands on Hezbollah and Lebanon.
– The resistance adhered to the agreement, as did Lebanon through the state and the army, while “Israel” continued its violations through security infiltration inside Lebanese territory.
– Where is the state regarding the recent kidnapping incident of officer Ahmad Shaker in the Zahle area?
🫡15👎3🤬2
– They want the Lebanese Army to execute with a heavy-handed force.
– They were disturbed by the image of cooperation existing between the Lebanese Army and the Resistance.
– What the Lebanese Army achieved in terms of deployment south of the Litani during the past period should have taken place only if “Israel” had abided by halting the aggression, withdrawing, and beginning reconstruction.
– Lebanon is no longer required to take any measure, on any front, before the “Israeli” enemy fulfills its obligations.
– Do not ask anything of us anymore.
– Lebanon is not required to be a police officer for “Israel.”
– Because we are the rightful owners of the land and demand justice, “Israel” must leave.
– We will defend, persevere, and achieve our goals — even if after some time.
– Aggression must stop by land, sea, and air, along with full withdrawal, release of captives, and the beginning of reconstruction of the South.
🫡18👎5🤬1
– Ride your fiercest horses, use your brutality and crimes — we will neither retreat nor surrender.
– The relationship between Hezbollah and the Amal Movement is strong and solid, and we will continue to stand as one hand.
– It is our right to defend ourselves while at the same time participating in state-building and presenting the best national model.
– If South Lebanon falls, Lebanon will not remain — and all Lebanese are concerned with defending it.
– The enemy must implement the agreement and stop its violations; only then can we discuss a national security strategy that serves Lebanon’s interest.
– We fully bear responsibility for this stance.
👍13🫡7👎6🤬1
– I say to the Lebanese: If South Lebanon is lost, Lebanon will not remain. All Lebanese are concerned with unity of word to save the nation. It is unacceptable to claim that the burden rests on one side — the burden must be shared by all. No one has the right to ask us: “Why do you defend yourselves?” Rather, we ask: Why do you not defend Lebanon? Why do you not safeguard the back of those who are defending it? Why do you not stand with Lebanon’s sovereignty and its national unity?
– The one who does not defend, does not confront, and does not work for national unity — that is who should be questioned.
– Lebanon is a single vessel. Whoever thinks he can throw others into the sea to claim the spoils alone — we say to him: beware where you place your feet. As for the swimmers — they do not drown, no matter how deep the sea. And if the swimmers do not survive the storm, no one will survive, and nothing will remain.
– We in Hezbollah and the Resistance are assured that we will remain dignified, strong, and courageous defenders no matter how great the hardships and sacrifices. Allah is with us, truth is with us, and our people are with us. And whoever is with Allah does not care whether he falls upon death or death falls upon him.
