Heavy fighting engulfs North Darfur capital
[SUDANTRIBUNE] Intense fighting erupted in El Fasher, the capital of North Darfur, on Wednesday, as the Sudan

It is noted for its affinity for rule by ex- or current generals, its holy men, and for the oppression of the native Afro population by its Arab conquerors.

Eyewitnesses told Sudan Tribune the festivities were among the most violent mostly peaceful in El Fasher since the conflict began in May. The battles involved heavy artillery, drones, and Arclight airstrike

s.

The army launched airstrikes targeting RSF positions, attempting to destroy heavy weaponry used to attack central El Fasher and key locations.

The RSF responded with anti-aircraft fire and renewed artillery shelling. Local authorities reported over 60 deaths and nearly 100 injuries from RSF shelling in recent days.

Both sides also deployed drones in El Fasher, further escalating the violence. Heavy weapons festivities continued throughout Wednesday in the southern and eastern parts of the city.

The intensified fighting has triggered a mass displacement of civilians and internally displaced persons (IDPs) towards areas controlled by the Sudan Liberation Movement in Tawila and Jebel Marra.

MSF warns of rising deaths in El Fasher, condemns hospital attacks, supply blockade
[SUDANTRIBUNE] Medical charity Medecins Sans Frontieres (MSF) on Wednesday called for an end to repeated attacks on hospitals and a blockade of medical supplies in Sudan
...a Moslem country located in the Horn of Africa. It is noted for its affinity for rule by ex- or current generals, its holy men, and for the oppression of the native Afro population by its Arab conquerors. South Sudan, populated mostly by the natives, split off from Sudan proper, which left North and South Darfur to be oppressed by the guys with turbans...
’s El Fasher, warning they are causing a rising corpse count.

More than 2,170 maimed people have been treated at MSF-supported hospitals in the city since fighting escalated 80 days ago, and over 300 have died from their injuries, MSF said in a statement.

The Rapid Support Forces (RSF) have held MSF supply trucks for the past four weeks, threatening to deplete essential resources at Saudi Hospital, the last functioning public hospital in El Fasher, the statement said.

"The warring parties must prioritize the protection of healthcare facilities and ensure unhindered access to medical care for all," said Stephane Doyon, head of MSF’s emergency response in Sudan.

The RSF did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

The repeated attacks on hospitals, including a shelling of Saudi hospital on July 29 that killed three caregivers and injured 25 people, highlighted a disregard for international humanitarian law and civilian lives, MSF said.

MSF said its trucks, carrying essential surgical kits and therapeutic food for malnourished children, had been held in Kabkabiya by the RSF.

"If the blockade on humanitarian aid is not lifted urgently, there is going to be an even greater corpse count," Doyon said.

ese army on Thursday regained control of positions previously held by the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) in the al-Muhandisin and al-Fatihab neighbourhoods in southern Omdurman.

This advance follows a February operation where army forces from the Wadi Sidna military base north of Omdurman broke through an RSF siege and linked up with the Corps of Engineers in the city centre. The RSF subsequently withdrew towards the neighbouring areas of al-Mansoura, al-Muraba’at, and al-Bustan.

The armed forces reported that special forces successfully executed an operation in the al-Muhandisin and al-Fatihab axis, Square 13, "killing dozens" and seizing weapons and ammunition from the RSF, which they labelled a "terrorist militia belonging to the Daglo family".

Military sources informed Sudan Tribune that the army also neutralized RSF pockets in the Hamad al-Nil area and near the al-Mansoura roundabout, situated on the border between Omdurman and Umbada localities.

Pro-army social media pages shared footage depicting the military seizing RSF sniper positions in western al-Muhandisin.

Over the past few months, the army has systematically retaken control of Omdurman’s historic districts from the RSF, including the headquarters of the state broadcaster.

US aircraft carrier arrives in Persian Gulf amid rising tensions
[GEO.TV] Amid rising tensions in the Middle East, a nuclear-powered US aircraft carrier, Theodore Roosevelt, has arrived in the Persian Gulf.

Anjem is a loathesome little attention prostitute who is to be heard cheering for the home team anytime anybody with a turban manages to slaughter a group of unarmed infidels. Anjem was born in the UK in 1967 and is, as you would expect, of Pakistaini descent. The Ghost of Dante is of the opinion that when he goes to hell his knees will be broken once a month.

#3  @2 The exchange deal sets a precedent.

Islamists in every corner of the world have an interest to gain power and prestige by forcing the West to release top-tier Islamist figures serving long prison terms by way of taking hostages.

As in the 1970s, Western nations giving in to such pressure increases the risk to Western citizens in general.

Suspect in fatal Southport stabbing at Taylor Swift-themed event ID'd as Axel Rudakubana
[NY Post] See the OLD photo and then the courtroom drawing. They're doing the Trayvon thing again
The UK teen accused of fatally stabbing three little girls and wounding 10 others at a Taylor Swift-themed dance class was identified for the first time Thursday as Axel Rudakubana.

The 17-year-old, who was born in Wales to Rwandan parents, smiled during an initial appearance Thursday in Liverpool Magistrates’ Court.

He is charged with the murders of Bebe King, 6, Elsie Dot Stancombe, 7, and Alice Dasilva Aguiar, 9, as well as 10 counts of attempted murder for stabbing eight other children along with two adults who tried to help them at the kids’ event Monday in Southport.

Fifth Column
A woman is arrested in vandalism at museum officials' homes during pro-Palestinian protests
[ARABNEWS] A woman who police say helped vandalize the homes of the Brooklyn Museum’s leaders with red paint during a wave of pro-Paleostinian protests has been arrested on hate crimes charges.

Taylor Pelton, 28, was arrested Wednesday on charges of criminal mischief and criminal mischief as a hate crime, police said.
Bet she turns out to be an Antifa cadre making bank for the work.
Police say Pelton was one of six people seen on surveillance video vandalizing the homes of Brooklyn Museum Director Anne Pasternak and museum President and Chief Operating Officer Kimberly Trueblood on June 12.

Pelton was arraigned Wednesday night and released with court supervision, a spokesperson for the Brooklyn district attorney’s office said.

In an email, Pelton’s attorney, Moira Meltzer-Cohen, criticized "the increasing trend of characterizing Paleostine solidarity actions as hate crimes."

According to court papers, Pelton was part of a group of people seen on surveillance video spray-painting red paint the homes of Pasternak and Trueblood and hanging banners that with slogans like "BLOOD ON YOUR HANDS" AND "WHITE SUPREMACIST, FUNDS GENOCIDE."

An inverted red triangle that authorities say is a symbol used by Hamas
..a contraction of the Arabic words for "frothing at the mouth",...
to identify Israeli military targets was sprayed onto Pasternak’s door, according to court papers.

The other people seen in the videos are still being sought, the district attorney said.
The Times of Israel adds:
Pelton’s attorney wrote that the willingness of prosecutors “to endorse the rhetorical collapse of Zionist ideology and protected religious identity, in order to criminalize criticism of Israel, signals a troubling departure from the principles on which our legal and political systems rest.”

The paint splashing happened days after hundreds of pro-Palestinians protesters marched to the museum, occupied its lobby, vandalized artworks and hung a “Free Palestine” banner from its roof. Police arrested several dozen people.
The march on museum was a project of Within Our Lifetime, one of the many tentacles of the pro-Hamas section of Antifa, which increases the odds that our miscreant is that sort of nasty Fifth Columnist.

Israel-Palestine-Jordan
IDF kills Palestinian Islamic Jihad deputy weapons production head Mohammed al-Jabari
[JPost] Another one bites the dust
Mohammed al-Jabari's role in the terror group was to finance weapon manufacturing infrastructure for the Islamic Jihad in northern Gaza.

The IDF killed the Palestinian Islamic Jihad's deputy head of weapons production, Mohammed al-Jabari, in a targeted intelligence-based operation, the Israeli military said on Friday morning.

According to the IDF, Al-Jabari was responsible for financing weapon manufacturing infrastructure for the Islamic Jihad in northern Gaza.

Al-Jabari was also reportedly in charge of the distribution of salaries and funds to the organization's terrorists and actively participated in efforts to restore the group's rocket manufacturing capabilities and infrastructure.

The IDF emphasized that before the strike, which eliminated Al-Jabari, steps were taken to mitigate the risk of harming civilians through the usage of "precise munitions, surveillance, and additional intelligence."

30 terrorists killed
In addition to the strike, IDF troops of the 162nd Division have continued operational activities in the area of Rafah, resulting in the elimination of approximately 30 terrorists in the last 24 hours, the military continued.

The troops carried out "precise, intelligence-based operational activities" to eliminate the terrorists, the IDF said. They also added that the attacks were done "during close-quarters encounters and in aerial strikes."
Tunnel identification

In addition to the elimination of terrorists, troops of the IDF's 16th Brigade began operations in central Gaza that resulted in the finding of a terror tunnel after a group of terrorists emerged from it to attack the troops.

IDF says it destroyed rocket launchers in Khan Younis primed for attack on Israel
[IsraelTimes] Rocket launchers in southern Gaza’s Khan Younis primed for an attack on Israel were destroyed in a drone strike, the IDF says.

The military says that some 35 more targets were hit by Israeli Air Force fighter jets and drones over the past day, including cells of gunmen and buildings used by terror groups.

Meanwhile, troops with the 162nd Division continue to advance in southern Gaza’s Rafah. The IDF says the division has been carrying out raids in Rafah’s Tel Sultan neighborhood, and destroyed a booby-trapped building in an area where Hamas was operating.

Reservists with the 252nd Division are meanwhile operating in the Netzarim Corridor of central Gaza. The IDF says the reservists directed drone strikes on several gunmen in the area in the past day.

Israeli forces arrest nine 15 24 in Hebron: report
[GEO.TV] Israeli forces have carried out a series of raids throughout the Hebron governorate in the occupied West Bank, taking nine people into custody, Al Jazeera reported citing the Wafa news agency.

The raids took place in Hebron city, the town of Beit Kahil and the town of Dura, according to Wafa.

These latest arrests follow reports of an earlier detention campaign in Nablus, where at least six people were apprehended by the Israeli military.
The Times of Israel adds:
The IDF says troops detained 24 Palestinians affiliated with the Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad terror groups in arrest raids across the West Bank overnight.

Since October 7, troops have arrested some 4,400 wanted Palestinians in the West Bank, including more than 1,850 affiliated with Hamas, according to the IDF.

At least 10 Palestinians killed in Israeli strike on school in Gaza, emergency services say
[GEO.TV] Israeli forces hit a school in Shejaia in Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. 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. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...
City on Thursday, killing at least 10 people, Paleostinian civil emergency services said.

The Hamas
..the well-beloved offspring of the Moslem Brotherhood,...
movement's Al Aqsa television said as many as 15 people were killed in the strike, which came as Israeli forces have continued battling Paleostinian fighters in various parts of the Gaza Strip.

The military said it had targeted fighters operating in a compound within the school that it said was used as a hideout for Hamas commanders and fighters.

"Prior to the strike, numerous steps were taken to mitigate the risk of harming civilians, including the use of precise munitions, surveillance, and additional intelligence," it said in a statement.
Do you ever wonder why they never seem to hit anything but schools, hospitals, and nursing homes?
It is odd indeed, Fred.
The Times of Israel adds:
A group of Hamas operatives gathered at a school in Gaza City’s Shejaiya neighborhood were struck by a fighter jet a short while ago, the military says.

According to the IDF, Hamas was using the Dalal School as a hideout for operatives and commanders, and it had planned attacks against Israel from the site.

The IDF says it carried out “many steps” to mitigate harm to civilians, including using aerial surveillance and precision munitions.

Hamas authorities reported at least 12 dead in the attack

#2  Israel could take him out any time it wants. While it waits for an attack, military planners are at work. My own proclivity would be a bunker buster on Qom. Secondly, would be a psywar attack on Tehran; ordering everyone out in 24 hours. However, if this next attack on Israel has more success than the last one, perhaps an attack on Iran's parliament will be approved.

#3  Also need to get the word out that several mullahs in the Guardian Counsel and several IRNG big shots are in the pay of Mossad.

Some of this may even be true.

Hezbollah says fired 'dozens' of rockets at north Israel
[ARABNEWS] Hezbollah said it launched rockets at northern Israel Thursday "in response" to a deadly Israeli strike in south Leb
...an Iranian satrapy currently ruled by Hassan Nasrallah situated on the eastern Mediterranean, conveniently adjacent to Israel. 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...
— the group’s first attack after Israel killed a top commander earlier this week.

The Iran-backed group said in a statement that it "launched dozens of Katyusha rockets... in response to the Israeli enemy’s attack on... (the southern village of Shama) that killed a number of civilians."

The Israeli military said that shortly after the rocket fire, the air force "struck the Hezbollah launcher from which the projectiles were launched."

Earlier Thursday, the Lebanese health ministry said four Syrians were killed in an Israeli strike on the south, where Hezbollah and Israel have exchanged near-daily fire since the Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. 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. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...
war began in October.

"The health ministry announces... four Syrian nationals were martyred" in an "Israeli strike" on the southern village of Shama, it said in a statement.

The ministry said the toll might rise once DNA tests had been carried out.

The strike also maimed five Lebanese nationals, it added.

Emergency services told AFP that the dead were farmer workers and part of the same family.

Plumes of smoke billowed from the site of the strike, which heavily damaged two nearby buildings and burnt a vehicle to a crisp, a photographer contributing to AFP reported.

The attack was Hezbollah’s first since an Israeli air strike killed its top commander Fuad Shukr on Tuesday evening, with leader His Eminence Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah
...The satrap of the Medes and the Persians in Leb...>
saying operations would resume on Friday morning.

Nasrallah warned his group was bound to respond to the killing of Shukr.

His death was followed hours later Wednesday, by the killing of Hezbollah ally Hamas
..a contraction of the Arabic words for "frothing at the mouth",...
’s chief Ismail Haniyeh
...became Prime Minister of Gaza after the legislative elections of 2006 which Hamas won. President Mahmoud Abbas dismissed Haniyeh from office on 14 June 2007 at the height of the Fatah-Hamas festivities, but Haniyeh did not acknowledge the decree and continues as the PM of Gazoo while Abbas maintains a separate PM in the West Bank...
in a strike in Tehran, which Iran
...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan. The abbreviation IRGC is the same idea as Stürmabteilung (or SA). The term Supreme Guide is a the modern version form of either Duce or Führer or maybe both. They hate Jews Zionists Jews. Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol...
and Hamas have blamed on Israel. Israel has declined to comment on his killing.
The Times of Israel adds:
In a statement, Hezbollah claims to have launched dozens of rockets at the northern border community of Metzuba in response to an Israeli strike in the Lebanese village of Chamaa earlier today.

There were no reports of injuries in the rocket barrage on the Western Galilee.

The strike in Chamaa reportedly killed four Syrians and wounded several Lebanese civilians.
