Israeli INVASION of Lebanon Likely Imminent | Now that Comms are taken out, it is likely an Israeli invasion of Lebanon will commence within hours. Multiple injuries have so far been reported across Lebanon, including in Dahiye, Beirut, after communications devices exploded in the pockets - or in the hands - of people connected to Hezbollah in Lebanon. Israeli media reports that Hezbollah's entire encrypted internal communications network is down. With Hezbollah communications now out, it seems likely to most observers that Israel will commence a full scale invasion of southern Lebanon within hours. The thinking is that Israel shut down the comms before the assault begins.

Israeli media highlight "Hamas’ restoration of its capabilities in northern Gaza," while reserve General Yitzhak Brik warns of "the army's losses if the fighting continues" and calls for a ceasefire deal to return the captives. | Israeli media cited a security source confirming that "Hamas has successfully restored its capabilities in the northern Gaza Strip." Reports indicate that an estimated 3,000 Hamas fighters "have resumed operations in the northern Gaza Strip and are actively working to enhance the organization's operational capabilities." These estimates suggest that the issue involves Hamas recruiting new members in recent months, rather than transferring fighters from the southern to the northern part of the Gaza Strip. That said, senior officials in the security and military establishment have stated that a large-scale incursion into the northern Gaza Strip is becoming inevitable.

The International Criminal Court judges have yet to issue arrest warrants for the Israeli prime minister and defense minister four months after prosecutor Karim Khan requested them | The chief prosecutor of the International Criminal Court (ICC) says world leaders pressured him not to apply for arrest warrants for the Israeli prime minister and defense minister on allegations of war crimes in Gaza, the BBC reported on 5 September. Karim Khan told the BBC, “Several leaders and others told me and advised me and cautioned me,” he said. ● In May, Khan said there were reasonable grounds to believe that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Yoav Gallant had committed war crimes during the Israeli assault on Gaza that has killed over 40,000 Palestinians, the majority women and children. The state of Israel faces separate genocide charges at the International Court of Justice (ICJ).

US journalist says that Israel is killing journalists who are democracy observers because the nature of the regime is not democratic, adding that Tel Aviv resorts to 'democracy' like a prostitute who wears a lot of 'perfume'. | The Israel-Gaza war has taken an unprecedented toll on Gazan journalists since the Israeli regime started the invasion of Gaza on October 7, 2023. ● According to the Journalist Syndicate in Gaza, the total number of journalists killed in Gaza since 7 October 2023 has become 157. OHCHR has raised similar serious concerns about killings of journalists in the past in the context of the current escalations in Gaza. ● Journalists in Gaza face particularly high risks as they try to cover the conflict during the Israeli regime's ground assault, including devastating airstrikes, disrupted communications, supply shortages, and extensive power outages. This has meant that it is becoming increasingly hard to document the situation.

Israel has now admitted 28 Apache helicopters discharged their ammunition and had to be reloaded. [...] The IDF Air Crews were dispatched to several places and told there were ongoing terror attacks taking place; they were ordered to "shoot everything that moves" and had NO IDEA they were hitting their own Israeli citizens. The troops involved were desperately trying to take out "the bad guys" but were not told there were Israeli citizens mixed-in and trying to flee. The poor troops didn't find out until well after the 10/7 incidents, that THEY KILLED their own citizens by mistake.

Israeli forces have shot a 16-year-old Palestinian girl in the occupied West Bank city of Jenin and denied medical access to her for over half an hour, leaving her to bleed to death, says the Palestinian Red Crescent. | The teenage girl, identified as Lujain Osama Musleh, was killed in the town of Kafr Dan in Jenin on Tuesday. The agency said the regime’s forces prevented its medical team and its ambulance from reaching the area of the shooting for some 30 minutes and left the Palestinian girl to bleed to death. ● Doctors Without Borders warned earlier that Israeli forces delay people’s access to care by obstructing access to health facilities, blocking traffic and targeting ambulances amid its "alarming" assault on Jenin. Israeli forces also shot a 14-year-old Palestinian boy in the tight in the city. The victim’s identity and condition remain unknown.

The latest Israeli killings bring the recorded death toll to 40,786 | Gaza’s Health Ministry said Monday that Israeli forces killed at least 48 Palestinians in Gaza, bringing the recorded death toll to 40,786.

💬 “Israeli forces killed 48 people and injured 70 others in three ‘massacres’ of families in the last 24 hours,” the ministry said, according to Turkey’s Anadolu Agency. “Many people are still trapped under the rubble and on the roads as rescuers are unable to reach them.”

The ministry said that the 70 Palestinians who were injured bring the total number of wounded since October 7 to 94,224. Israeli strikes were reported across the Gaza Strip, including in Gaza City, where seven Palestinians were killed in two separate airstrikes. Two Palestinians, including a child, were reported killed in the Nuiserat camp in central Gaza.

The Iranian foreign minister has warned that the continuation of Israel’s crimes against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank is causing a “dangerous crisis” in West Asia. | In an X post on Monday, Abbas Araqchi said Israel’s Western supporters bear responsibility for their failure to end “criminal provocations” by the occupying regime in the region.

💬 “By persisting in Gaza genocide and now dispatching its killing machine to West Bank, Israel's pushing region to brink of dangerous crisis,” he said. “If Bibi's Western enablers fail to curb these criminal provocations, they'll share responsibility for consequences—and be held accountable,” he added, referring to Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

Israel launched a genocidal war on the besieged Gaza on October 7, 2023 after the Hamas resistance group carried out a surprise operation against the usurping entity in retaliation for its intensified atrocities against the Palestinian people. So far, however, the Tel Aviv regime has failed to achieve any of its declared objectives in the Gaza Strip despite killing at least 40,786 Palestinians, mostly women and children, and injuring 94,224 others.

A high-ranking official with the Palestinian Hamas resistance movement says the six Israeli captives found dead in a tunnel in the southern Gaza Strip were killed in Israeli airstrikes against the besieged coastal territory. |

💬 “The ones who kill our people daily are the Israeli colonizers with American weapons. The captives found in Gaza were not killed by us but by the relentless Zionist bombardment,” Izzat al-Rishq, a member of the political bureau of Hamas, said in a statement on Sunday. He further criticized the United States, saying,

💬 “If President [Joe] Biden truly cares about the lives of Israeli hostages, he should cease his support for this enemy with money and weapons and pressure Israel to end its aggression immediately.”

Rishq emphasized that Hamas had been more concerned about the lives of the hostages than Biden himself, citing Hamas’s agreement to a ceasefire proposal and the UN Security Council’s resolution, both of which were rejected by Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu. ■ Earlier on Sunday, Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari, the Israeli military spokesperson, alleged that Hamas murdered the six captives, whose bodies were found inside a tunnel in the southern Gaza city of Rafah.

Then came a flash of light, 18-year-old Murad said, an explosion of white heat and sprayed earth. Murad felt pain in his neck. Halimy was bleeding from his head. ■ A car on the coastal road in front of them was engulfed in flames, the target of an Israeli air strike. It took 10 minutes for an ambulance to arrive. Hours later, doctors pronounced Halimy dead.
