Bedouin family offers $1 million for info on hamas terrorist who their killed son
[JPost] An Israeli-Bedouin family from Tel Sheva is offering $1 million for information regarding the Hamas terrorists who killed their son Osama Abu Assa during the October 7 mass infiltration and massacre of Israelis.

Osama, from the bereaved family that resides in the Negev Bedouin town, was one of 1,400 Israelis murdered in the massacre, which included the beheading and killing of children and infants.

He was murdered after not being able to hide from terrorists who massacred over 240 partygoers at a music festival in Re'im.

According to Maariv, footage recorded from a vehicle's dashcam obtained by security forces showed the terrorists ordering Abu Assa to strip, torturing him before shooting him dead.

"They murdered him despite knowing he was a Bedouin," his uncle told Maariv this week. "We want to know who is responsible - our mentality is blood vengeance," he added.

"We will reach [the terrorist], no matter where they are. If they have family in Israel or Jordan, we will reach the father, the brother, and the uncle. They will have to pay the price."

Gazans are evacuating to the south: 'The IDF is shooting - but not at us'
[Ynet] Hundreds of residents of Gaza City’s Zeitoun neighborhood were captured on video Tuesday morning leaving their homes through humanitarian corridors opened by the IDF and evacuating south, with some waving white flags as a sign of surrender. The IDF has taken over the neighborhood in the south of the city, and more and more residents in the northern Gaza Strip realize that, in light of the advance of the IDF soldiers, it is better for them to evacuate to the south - even on foot.

...A Gazan in the A-Shati camp interviewed by the Qatari Al-Araby channel said: "We were walking in the street and we were afraid. We raised our hands, and we had identity cards on us. They (the army) shot, but they didn't aim at us, and they let us go." Another resident said that, despite the fear, he and other residents preferred to "go toward the south and not stay in the fighting area." He emphasized that the sights on the road are horrifying and that the IDF "gave us the opportunity to pass and did not harm us."

Not forced, but choosing to be safe rather than protecting their evil overlords with their bodies. So kind of the IDF to keep the safe passage open when Hamas tried to keep them in place.

Israel Shoots Down Ballistic Missile Fired From Yemen in Huge First
[REDSTATE] On Monday, Israel shot down a ballistic missile in flight outside of the Earth's atmosphere. This marks a historical first time that an anti-ballistic missile has successfully intercepted a target in space during combat. The missile was fired by Iran's Houthi sock puppets
...a Zaidi Shia insurgent group operating in Yemen. They have also been referred to as the Believing Youth. Hussein Badreddin al-Houthi is said to be the spiritual leader of the group and most of the military leaders are his relatives. The legitimate Yemeni government has accused the them of having ties to the Iranian government. Honest they did. The group has managed to gain control over all of Saada Governorate and parts of Amran, Al Jawf and Hajjah Governorates. Its slogan is God is Great, Death to America™, Death to Israel, a curse on the Jews They like shooting off... ummm... missiles that they would have us believe they make at home in their basements. On the plus side, they did murder Ali Abdullah Saleh, which was the only way the country was ever going to be rid of him...
rebels in Yemen
...an area of the Arabian Peninsula sometimes mistaken for a country. It is populated by more antagonistic tribes and factions than you can keep track of...
and was targeting Israel. The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) used their Arrow anti-ballistic missile defense system, which is a joint American-Israeli project first deployed in Israel over 20 years ago.

While the Israel Defence Forces (IDF) has released few details about the interception, the Air Force is known to operate several batteries of the Arrow 2 system, which uses a hypersonic interceptor to take out incoming missiles in space.

The Israeli defence ministry released a video showing the moment of interception, with the faint cylindrical shape of the incoming ballistic missile barely visible in the false-colour image, before a kaboom smears across the screen.

In a statement, the IDF said that air force systems tracked the missile’s trajectory and intercepted it "at the most appropriate operational time and location".

The missile, which was classified as a Qadr-110 Intermediate Range Ballistic Missile (IRBM), is an improved version of the Iranian-designed Shahab-3 ballistic missile. It is approximately 52 feet long and four feet wide, weighs just over 37,400 pounds, and has a range of just over 1,200 miles. The missile has the ability to carry a conventional or nuclear warhead and can carry a warhead of up to 2,200 pounds.

The Arrow anti-ballistic missile system was designed specifically to deal with these types of threats and is also capable of intercepting land or sea-based cruise missiles as well. The IDF used this system before in 2017 when it successfully intercepted a Syrian S-200 surface-to-air missile, which was fired at an Israeli aircraft but missed and veered off-course in the direction of Israel. The missile is approximately 6,200 pounds, 23 feet long, and has a two-stage body. It has a top speed of MACH 9, which means it is capable of high hypersonic speeds and carries a 330-pound high-explosive warhead.

#5  On of the Yemeni missiles knocked down by the USS Carney was ballistic above the atmosphere. It was headed towards Eilat. The Saudis have also shot down at least one that was headed for Israel.

university and amusement park, the IDF revealed Tuesday.

The Paratrooper Brigade and the 7th Brigade uncovered chemicals, explosives and RPGs in the tunnel next to the university.

Lt.-Col. Almog, commander of the 202nd Battalion, said "we uncovered a very significant tunnel opening seemingly leading to a tunnel system. We’ll continue destroying infrastructure."

"This is all further evidence of Hamas’ cynical use of the civilian population and various facilities as a human shield for its needs," the IDF Spokesperson’s Unit added.

The tunnel opening, which was next to a ferris wheel in an amusement park was destroyed by Israeli soldiers in the Paratrooper Brigade.

"We found a logistic tunnel. The tunnels didn’t pass over this area. We blew it up now, the opening has been destroyed and we intend to do this in every place we get to," Maj. Roi, a commander, said.

Israeli army reaches 'heart of Gaza,' traps senior-most Hamas leader in bunker
Good. Give him consequences until he chokes on them.
[NYPOST] The Israeli army Tuesday said its troops have entered the "heart of Gazoo

The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage.

’ senior most leader there in an underground bunker.

Yahya Sinwar, 61 — dubbed Israel’s most wanted and called a "dead man walking" by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin — orchestrated the terror group’s Oct. 7 massacre in Israel that killed more than 1,400 people, mainly civilians, Israeli officials have said.

"[Israel Defense Forces] ... came from the north and the south. They stormed it in full coordination between land, air and sea forces," said Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, referring to the ground invasion, on Tuesday.

"They are maneuvering on foot, armored vehicles and tanks, along with military engineers from all directions, and they have one target — Hamas terrorists," he said.

The Israeli official said Sinwa is now isolated inside a bunker, with IDF soldiers determined to destroy it along with any infrastructure operated by the terrorists.

"They are tightening the noose around Gaza City," Gallant boasted of Israeli forces.

IDF kills four extremists in West Bank
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.
[Regnum] During a raid in the city of Tulkarm on the West Bank, the Israeli army (IDF) killed four Palestinian extremists. The Israeli newspaper The Jerusalem Post wrote about this

During the raid, Israeli security personnel discovered and eliminated terrorists responsible for planning and carrying out terrorist attacks and transporting terrorists into Israeli territory.

Four extremists were killed. All those liquidated are responsible for dozens of attacks, deaths, for planning and carrying out terrorist attacks with shooting, explosive devices, sniper attacks and sending terrorists to Israel, the publication emphasized.

As Regnum reported, at least eight Palestinian citizens were killed in an Israeli military airstrike on the Nasser hospital complex in Gaza City.

The medical complex includes a children's, ophthalmological and psychiatric hospital, as well as a specialized clinic.

Separate IDF raids in the vicinity of the Kamal Adwan and Al-Quds hospitals in the Gaza Strip also killed at least two Palestinians and injured several others.

UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres condemned the IDF attack on ambulances in the Gaza Strip. He called the photographs of the bodies of the dead near the hospital terrible. Guterres added that the humanitarian situation in Gaza is catastrophic - there is no medicine, no water, no food. In his statement, the Secretary General pointed to overcrowded morgues and an increase in illness among Gaza civilians, especially among children.

Doctors Without Borders employee killed in attack
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.
[Regnum] A Doctors Without Borders employee and his family died during the bombing of a refugee camp in the Gaza Strip, the organization announced on its page on the social network X.
Very often it turns out that the locals these international organizations hire in the West Bank and Gaza Strip are simultaneously members of the local terror organizations. Will we later learn this one was too?
“We mourn the loss of one of our team members in Gaza, Mohammed Al Ahel , who was killed along with several members of his family on November 6,” the statement said.

According to the organization, the deceased employee worked as a laboratory assistant for more than two years. At the time of the attack, he was in his home in the Al-Sheit refugee camp. As a result of the bombing, his house collapsed, killing dozens of people.
And y’all are quite, quite certain it wasn't one of the 20-25% of Hamas/Islamic Jihad missiles/rockets that came straight down instead of arcing off into Israel as intended?
Doctors Without Borders emphasized that throughout Gaza, people are losing their homes, dying, and world leaders are not taking meaningful action.

As Regnum reported , the World Health Organization (WHO) does not have the ability to check what is underneath hospitals in the Gaza Strip, but the buildings are filled with patients, WHO spokesman Christian Lindmeier said. Any attacks on those hospitals or ambulances are “unjustified and unacceptable,” he said.
What happens to human shields is the responsibility of those hiding behind them, according to international law. But it's nice that WHO admits to knowing what they were shielding underneath them.
The Qatari TV channel Al Jazeera, citing the Ministry of Health, reported on November 7 that at least eight Palestinians were killed as a result of an Israeli military airstrike on the Nasser hospital complex in Gaza City. The medical complex includes a children's, ophthalmological and psychiatric hospital, as well as a specialized clinic.

It was also stated that after separate IDF raids on the vicinity of Kamal Adwan and Al-Quds hospitals in the Gaza Strip, at least two Palestinians were killed and several others were injured.

Another misrepresntation. There may have been camps with tents and etc. in the early years after 1948, but they've lived in real buildings for a long, long time now. Al-Sheit is a neighborhood now, not the tent city that Hamas an its enablers would like you to believe.

[NAHARNET] Israel bombed Tuesday al-Labbouneh, near the southern Lebanese town of Naqoura, and the outskirts of the southern towns of Mhaibib and Aitaroun, as two Iron Dome missiles landed in an open area in the outskirts of the town of al-Tiri in south Leb

Formerly inhabited by hardy Phoenecian traders, its official language is now Arabic, with the usual unpleasant side effects. The Leb civil war, between 1975 and 1990, lasted a little over 145 years and produced 120,000 fatalities. The average length of a ceasefire was measured in seconds. The Lebs maintain a precarious sectarian balance among Shiites, Sunnis, and about a dozen flavors of Christians, plus Armenians, Georgians, and who knows what else? It is the home of the original Hezbollah, which periodically starts a war with the Zionist Entity, gets Beirut pounded to rubble, and then declares victory and has a parade. The Lebs have the curious habit of periodically murdering their heads of state or prime ministers...

Israeli media said that Israeli residents of the Galilee Panhandle near Lebanon's border had been asked to stay near shelters over a suspected security incident.

"An IDF tank attacked a terrorist squad in Lebanese territory that tried to launch an anti-tank missile towards Israeli territory near the Shatula area," Israeli army spokesperson Daniel Hagari said.

He added that earlier today, Israeli forces attacked a position of Hezbollah, "in order to remove a threat."

Israel also bombed al-Bustan and Yarin, after Hezbollah targeted the Israeli Birket Risha post facing the two towns.

On Monday, Hezbollah fighters attacked at least three Israeli military posts along the border around sunset, while the military wing of Paleostinian group Hamas

The Israeli army responded by shelling the origin points of rocket launches and carried out Arclight airstrike

The violence along the border has forced thousands of people along both the Lebanese and Israeli sides to move to safer areas.

#2  I read or listened, forget, but i digested a fairly high ranking IDF member and he was saying that Hamas broke from a secret attack plan they had with Iran and its proxies.

He was saying the Nova Rave was so close, and Hamas had the means - that Hamas jumped the gun and executed their part of the plan without coordination with Iran and Proxies.

He continued and was saying that the plans for after the initial blitzkrieg on the neighboring kibbutz, Hamas had further targets deeper inside Israel Proper. But the blood lust: the raping, the pillaging, the killing, and hostage taking - hostage seeking, slowed and broke their larger plan of action.

The plan got snarled up on the border kibbutz. The sneak attack on paper was to be deeper and deadlier. And had they waited to coordinate with Iran, regional.

But that was not the case. Some context and $.02

#3  That makes sense, mossomo. Iran held them on a leash for two years, but it wasn’t reasonable to expect longer. And in the meantime the West Bank had been hit with nightly raids vacuuming up personnel and war matériel, while Hezbollah’s cross-border tunnels were filled up with blue goo... some things just do not translate from plan to reality,

Israel strikes Hezbollah in response to shelling from Lebanon
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.
[RIA] Israel Defense Forces (IDF) fighter jets struck targets of the Lebanese Hezbollah movement, the military's Telegram channel reported.

“In response to shelling from Lebanon earlier today, IDF fighters attacked Hezbollah terrorist targets,” the publication said.

It is noted that the army also attacked a “terrorist cell” that was trying to fire anti-tank missiles from Lebanon into the territory of the Jewish state.

ESCALATING CONFLICT IN THE GAZA STRIP
The Palestinian-Israeli conflict is associated with the territorial interests of the parties and has remained a source of tension and clashes in the Middle East for many decades . A UN decision with the active role of the USSR in 1947 determined the creation of two states - Palestine and Israel, but only the latter was created.

A new round of confrontation began after Israel was subjected to an unprecedented rocket attack from the Gaza Strip on the morning of October 7. After massive shelling, Hamas fighters entered the border areas in the south of the Jewish state, where they opened fire on both military and civilians, and also took hostages. The movement's military wing, the Al-Qassam Brigades, announced Operation Al-Aqsa Flood.

In response, the Israel Defense Forces launched Operation Iron Swords in the Gaza Strip. Within days of the attack, the Israeli military took control of all settlements near the border and began carrying out airstrikes against targets, including civilians, in the enclave. In addition, Israel announced a complete blockade of Gaza: supplies of water, food, electricity, medicine and fuel were suspended.

The number of victims in the Gaza Strip exceeded10,000, over 25,000 were injured. More than 1,400 people died in Israel, including 20 Russians. In addition, according to various estimates, about 240 people may be held captive by Hamas.
