News Update

Raza Zarei, an Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corps advisor, was killed in an Israeli attack in Syria this morning. Zarei was reportedly involved in transferring Iranian weaponry to and from Syria, Lebanon, Russia on behalf of Iran’s Quds Force. Two other Hezbollah terrorists were also killed in the strike.

The air force continues to strike Hezbollah targets in Lebanon, as Hezbollah continues to fire rockets into northern Israel. At least 5 senior Hezbollah members, including brigade commanders with years of control over certain areas near the Israel border, were eliminated this week. At least 250 Hezbollah terrorists have been killed since Oct. 7.

Two terrorists opened fire on people at a gas station near the settlement of Eli in Samaria, killing Yitzhak Zeiger, 57, a resident of Shavei Shomron, and Uria Hartum, 16, Dolev. One of the owners of the Hummus Eliyahu restaurant at the station, who recently returned from reserve service in Khan Younis, shot and killed the terrorist. The terrorist has been identified as Muhammad Manassara, a resident of the Qalandiya refugee camp who was a Palestinian Authority police officer with the rank equivalent to major. The other terrorists was killed by security forces as he tried to flee. For more, click here. 

The IDF spokesman confirmed that IDF soldiers did NOT fire at Palestinian civilians who stormed humanitarian aid trucks, coordinated by Israel, in northern Gaza yesterday. The trucks ran over the looters, killing dozens. Other civilians died in the stampede. The Palestinians are claiming that Israeli forces shot at the crowd, killing 100 civilians, and the media, along with some world leaders (including French President Macron) are perpetuating this blatant lie. [Meanwhile, over 130 Israeli hostages are still being held captive and tortured and raped, in Gaza. All Hamas needs to do is to release them and and the suffering of their own people. Unfortunately, Hamas only cares about its own terrorists, who are safely hidden, and well fed, in their underground sanctuaries beneath the hell of Gaza.]
