-Lurid Crime Tales-
''Tren de Aragua'' migrants busted for pistol-whipping woman during $75K jewelry heist
Very bad people who should never have been allowed in the country do bad things to the innocent natives they chose for their prey. In the old days it would be an F27 — I’m not sure what we do now.
[NYPOST] Four reputed members of the vicious Venezuela

...a country in Central America that sits on an enormous pool of oil. Formerly the most prospereous country in the region, it became infested with Commies sniffing almost unlimited wealth. It turned out the wealth wasn't unlimited, the economy collapsed under the clownish Hugo Chavez, the murder rate exceeded places like Honduras and El Salvador. A significant proportion of the populace refugeed to Colombia and points south...

n street gang ''Tren de Aragua'' are behind bars after a tense 8-hour standoff with cops in Texas following a violent mostly peaceful mostly peaceful $75,000 jewelry heist.

Dallas police said the migrant thugs followed the victim into her garage, pistol-whipped her and forced her into the Elsby Avenue home, where they made off with the valuables inside the woman's Gucci bag on Sept. 21, WFAA-TV News reported.

Authorities later rounded up three of the gangbangers — Yean Brayhan Torralba, 20, Alberto Martinez Silva, 34, and Manuel Hernandez-Hernandez, 28 — but the leader of the crew barricaded himself inside a home as Dallas cops and the Irving Police Department SWAT team deployed outside, the outlet said.

Wilmer Colmenares Gonzalez, 27, held police at bay for hours before he was taken into custody Thursday.

Police used surveillance video from the woman's garage and fingerprints from the scene in Northwest Dallas to identify the suspects and track them down, WFAA said.

According to Fox affiliate KDFW-TV, the migrants colonists colonists tied up the victim and threatened to cut off her fingers if she didn't lead them to the pricey gems during the robbery.

Hernandez-Hernandez told cops he didn't know his cohorts, and said he was told the crew was collecting money from a hooker who owed the gang, according to police records reviewed by the station.

Tren de Aragua has fanned out across the US after sneaking across the border with Mexico among the millions of asylum seekers who have flooded the country since 2022.

They are luring desperate women into the nation, holding them hostage and forcing them to sell their bodies until they pay off exorbitant smuggling fees to the gang.

The gang has also laid down roots in the Big Apple, infiltrating city-run migrant shelters to run guns, drugs, robbery crews and sex trafficking operations, law enforcement sources contend.

Multiple members of Tren de Aragua (TDA) arrested in Texas
[FoxNews] Multiple members of Tren de Aragua (TDA) were arrested Saturday after police in Texas raided a vacant apartment complex that the violent Venezuelan gang was "in control of" and using to commit crimes, authorities said.

Law enforcement agencies conducted the raid after receiving multiple complaints about narcotics violations, human trafficking and threats to apartment personnel at the complex, San Antonio Police Chief William McManus told reporters at a news conference.

"We had information that members of the transnational gang Tren de Agua were in control of the area and committing various crimes," McManus said.

Authorities cleared nearly 300 vacant apartments at the complex and arrested 19 of 20 individuals taken into custody. McManus said 15 of those individuals had detainers and several had confirmed warrants.

McManus said four of those taken into custody were confirmed to be members of the transnational gang Tren de Aragua, adding that one acted as an enforcer for the violent gang.

The four TDA members are currently in the custody of Homeland Security Investigations (HSI), the chief said.

The gang was known to be operating in the area for "several months," according to McManus, and the investigation into the illegal activity had been ongoing for weeks.

activist said, amid a crackdown on civilians following festivities with an army-allied militia.

Mudaththir Hussein Mustafa told Sudan Tribune that the arrests took place in Kutum town and the Kassab camp for displaced people. The RSF also imposed a strict curfew in both locations, starting at 4 p.m. local time (1400 GMT) and lasting until the following morning.

''The RSF carried out a widespread arrest campaign— and assaulted dozens by beating them and expelling them from their homes after accusing them of supporting the armed movements,'' Mustafa said.

He added that the RSF raided homes, looted property, and issued orders to close Kutum's main market and ban the use of Starlink satellite internet devices.

The RSF has not commented on the arrests or the reported curfew.

El Fasher receives major reinforcements as fighting with RSF intensifies
[SUDANTRIBUNE] Significant military reinforcements have arrived in El Fasher, the capital of North Darfur, a spokesperson for the joint force of gangs aligned with the 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...
ese army said on Sunday.

The reinforcements from the northern desert regions come amid intensified festivities with the Rapid Support Forces (RSF).

Last week, heavy fighting occurred between the joint force and the RSF in the areas of Sayah, Madu, and Taqabu, north of El Fasher. Both sides claimed gains.

''El Fasher has received large military reinforcements from the northern axis of North Darfur state,'' Ahmed Hussein Mustafa, the spokesperson for the joint force, told Sudan Tribune. He added that their forces clashed with the RSF in the northern part of the city early Sunday, forcing them to retreat towards Mellit.

Videos circulating online, purportedly from supporters of the joint force, showed the arrival of the reinforcements being welcomed by residents. A statement from the Justice and Equality Movement, one of the gangs in the joint force, confirmed that the reinforcements linked up with other forces arriving from the north.

El Fasher has been under a tight RSF siege since April. In May, the RSF launched an offensive to capture the city, a key government stronghold in Darfur. The offensive slowed after the death of its commander, Ali Yaqoub, in June, but fighting escalated again in September and October, causing civilian casualties.

The Abu Shouk camp for displaced people, home to some 400,000, has been repeatedly targeted by RSF shelling, according to a statement from the camp's emergency room. The shelling has resulted in deaths and injuries, forcing over 60% of the camp's residents to flee to Tawila, west of El Fasher, and other areas in Jebel Marra.

Tens of thousands of Moroccans protest ties with Israel on eve of Oct. 7 anniversary
[IsraelTimes] Demonstrators in Rabat wave Palestinian flags and portraits of Hassan Nasrallah, calling for the kingdom’s 2020 normalization deal with Israel to be revoked

Tens of thousands of Moroccans protested in Rabat on Sunday against the kingdom’s four-year-old normalization of ties with Israel, one day before the first anniversary of Hamas
..one of the armed feet of the Moslem Brüderbund millipede,...
’s October 7 attack.

Demonstrators waved Paleostinian flags and brandished signs denouncing the country’s participation in the Abraham Accords normalization deals, chanting "Resistance® does not die" and "The people want an end to normalization."

They also waved Lebanese flags and held portraits of slain Hezbollah terror group leader His Eminence Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah

, who was killed in an Israeli strike on southern Beirut on September 27.

Khadija Mokhtari, a 56-year-old retiree living in the capital, told AFP at the protest near parliament, "We consider Paleostine to be a national cause."

She said she joined the protest to demonstrate against "flagrant injustice, Israeli killings and the genocide" against Paleostinians.

Another protester, Noufissa Souad, 39, said: "They are going to kill the entire Paleostinian people for their land," and said Arab and Moslem leaders must speak out.

"We are hand in hand with the enemy," she added.
Possibly that made more sense in the original Moroccan Arabic, a dialect unintelligible to those trained in the Palestinian, Egyptian, and Saudi versions, as Mr. Wife was. When he worked in Morocco, he spoke to the natives in his schoolboy French.
The protest came a day before the first anniversary of Hamas’s attack last year.

The streets of Rabat also saw anti-Israel demonstrations last year in the immediate wake of the Hamas attack, with protesters burning an Israeli flag and celebrating the onslaught.

Morocco established official ties in Israel in 2020 as part of the US-led Abraham Accords, which also saw agreements with the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, and Sudan

It is currently ruled with a rusty 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.

…knowing, as they do, which side their bread is buttered on.
Ahead of October 7, 2023, ties between Israel and Morocco had expanded rapidly, with Rabat buying advanced drones and other military equipment as well as cybersecurity products.

Bilateral trade grew by a third in 2022, while some 200,000 Israelis visited Morocco, according to official figures. Some 700,000 Israelis are of Moroccan descent, and many have maintained strong ties.
Sentiment is all very well, but they still will not move back, any more than the minority of Jewish Moroccans who settled in Europe and the Americas. Whether in a few more generations they still will be sentimental about the Olde Countrie that has housed ancestral bones since the 1st century AD will depend on how Morocco behaves.
Sunday’s rally was organized by the National Action Group for Paleostine, which brings together leftist groups and the Islamist Justice and Development Party.

Britain
Several migrants killed while crossing Channel to UK as illegal migrant Channel crossings hit record
[GEO.TV] Several migrants colonists died and a two-year-old boy was crushed to death in two separate tragedies overnight when their overcrowded boats tried to cross the Channel to Britannia, French officials said Saturday.

The child was found unresponsive in an overloaded dinghy when migrants colonists, who were onboard a boat carrying nearly 90 people, issued a call for assistance on Saturday morning.

The boat suffered engine failure off the coast of Boulogne-sur-Mer in northern La Belle France. The boy could not be saved, a regional prefect told news hounds.

Citing initial information, Boulogne-sur-Mer prosecutor Guirec Le Bras said the child — who was born in Germany to a Somali mother — was "crushed" to death, AFP reported.

Fourteen other migrants colonists were picked up by French authorities including a 17-year-old teenager who had to be hospitalised with burns to his legs, officials said. The other passengers continued their journey.

Another boat overcrowded with migrants colonists also suffered engine failure off the coast of Calais, leading to panic. Some migrants colonists fell into the sea and were rescued.

Three people — two men and a woman aged around 30 — were then discovered unconscious at the bottom of the boat, Pas-de-Calais prefect Jacques Billant said.

The three were "probably crushed, suffocated and drowned" in the water at the bottom of the boat, added the prefect. One of the adult victims was Vietnamese, and the other two are of "African origin," according to prosecutors.

Illegal Migrant Crossings of English Channel Hit Daily Record

[Breitbart] Illegal crossings of the English Channel hit a new record for the year as nearly a thousand migrants colonists were brought ashore by British authorities Saturday after setting sail from the French coastline.

A total of 973 illegal aliens in 17 people smuggler-operated small boats crossed the Channel on Saturday, marking a fresh high in daily crossings for the year. Before Saturday, the previous record occurred on June 18th when 882 illegals reached UK soil in 15 boats.

The latest crossings came after another 395 illegals reached Britannia on Friday, taking the total for the year to 26,612. This means that the illegal boat migration is up over the previous year, with 25,330 crossing by this time in 2023. However,
if you can't be a good example, then you'll just have to be a horrible warning...
the number of illegal arrivals is slightly down from its peak in 2022 when 33,611 had landed at this point of the year, the PA News agency reports.

The yearly high for boat migrant landings on Saturday came as another four people, including a two-year-old boy, died as they attempted to traverse the busy and dangerous waterway in unseaworthy small boats.

French Interior Minister Bruno Retailleau revealed that the young boy was "trampled to death in a boat" by other migrants colonists. According to the Daily Mail, the dead child was found on a boat with almost 90 other migrants colonists.

This week, Home Secretary Yvette Cooper said that the government would immediately invest £75 million to ramp up border security measures and to facilitate National Crime Agency investigations to thwart people smuggling networks.

It came as Britannia and other G7 countries agreed to increase cooperation in confronting smugglers, which will include joint investigations as well as more intelligence sharing about migrant routes used by traffickers.

The G7 plan also committed to "working collaboratively" with social media companies to "do more to respond to online content that advertises migrant smuggling services".

However,
if you can't be a good example, then you'll just have to be a horrible warning...
despite the continued influx of illegal migrants colonists, the left-wing Labour Party government, like successive Tory governments before it, has refused to enact a turn-back-the-boats approach as successfully demonstrated by former Australian PM Tony Abbott’s Operation Sovereign Borders.

India-Pakistan
Three foreign nationals dead, several injured in explosion near Karachi airport
[GEO.TV] At least three foreign nationals died while 17 others sustained injuries in a huge explosion near Jinnah International Airport, Bloody Karachi
...formerly the capital of Pakistain, now merely its most important port and financial center. It is among the largest cities in the world, with a population of 18 million, most of whom hate each other and many of whom are armed and dangerous...

, with Home Minister Zia Ul Hassan Lanjar suspecting it to be an improvised bomb (IED) strike.

Sources told Geo News that the sound of the earth-shattering kaboom was heard in different areas of the city, including Karimabad, Defence and Jamshed Road, with television footage showing massive thick clouds of smoke and a blazing fire from the site.

All injured have been transferred to Jinnah hospital for emergency treatment.

In a statement, Malir Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) confirmed a huge explosion near the airport's traffic signal.

Initial reports suggested that an oil tanker blew up, engulfing a number of vehicles present at the site, the police official said.

Law enforcement agencies and firefighters have reached the spot.

Rescue officials claimed that one person and several others have sustained injuries in the blast and shifted to hospital.

Meanwhile,
...back at the revival hall, the congregants were being herded into the paddy wagon...
Sindh Chief Minister Murad Ali Shah has sought a detailed report from the Malir SSP regarding the incident.

''We need to ascertain the facts,'' the statement said, ordering authorities to provide best medical treatment to injured people. The CM also ordered to not block any roads leading to and from the airport.
The BBC adds:
Two Chinese nationals have been killed after an explosion near Jinnah International Airport in Karachi, Pakistan.

The Chinese embassy in Pakistan said "many Pakistani personnel were killed and injured" in the blast, which happened around 23:00 local time (17:00 GMT). The overall death toll is as yet unclear.

The embassy added that the explosion targeted a convoy of Chinese engineers working on a power project in the country's Sindh province.

The separatist Balochistan
...the Pak province bordering Kandahar and Uruzgun provinces in Afghanistan and Sistan Baluchistan in Iran. Its native Baloch propulation is being displaced by Pashtuns and Punjabis and they aren't happy about it...
Liberation Army (BLA) - which has in recent years carried out attacks on Chinese nationals involved in projects - has claimed responsibility for the attack.

In a statement released on Monday, the militant group said it had "targeted a high-level convoy of Chinese engineers and investors" arriving from Karachi airport.

The Chinese embassy said that the engineers were part of the Chinese-funded enterprise Port Qasim Power Generation Co Ltd, which aims to build two coal power plants at Port Qasim, near Karachi.

The plant is part of the China-Pakistan economic corridor, which is also funding a number of infrastructure and energy projects in Pakistan's Balochistan province, which has a rich supply of natural resources, including gas and minerals.

The BLA along with other ethnic Baloch groups has fought a long-running insurgency for a separate homeland.

It has regularly targeted Chinese nationals in the region, claiming ethnic Baloch residents were not receiving their share of wealth extracted from foreign investors.

The Chinese embassy on Monday reminded its citizens and Chinese enterprises in Pakistan to be vigilant and to "do their best to take safety precautions". The embassy added that it will thoroughly investigate the attack and "severely punish the murderer".

There has also been heightened security in Pakistan as it prepares to host the leaders' summit of the Shangai Cooperation Organisation (SCO).
A few details from Khaama Press:
Zia ul Hassan Langer, the Sindh provincial minister, stated that the explosion was likely caused by an improvised explosive device (IED) planted by the roadside.

According to Pakistani officials, the vehicle of foreign nationals was the target of this attack.

In recent months, armed attacks have surged in various parts of Pakistan, including Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Balochistan. According to statistics from the Pakistan Institute for Peace Studies, 74 people were killed and 166 others injured in armed attacks across the country in August of this year.

Govt slaps ban on Pashtun Tahafuz Movement citing ''risk to peace, security''
[GEO.TV] The Shehbaz Sharif-led coalition government on Sunday issued a notification banning the Manzoor Pashteen-led Pashtun Tahafuz Movement (PTM).

"The federal government having reasons to believe that the PTM is engaged in certain activities prejudicial to peace and security of the country [...] is pleased to list the PTM in the First Schedule as a proscribed organization," read the notification issued by the Ministry of Interior.

The ban has been placed under Section 11B of the Anti-Terrorism Act 1997.

The development comes as the country is facing a rather tumultuous political and security situation amid ongoing protests by the Pakistain Tehrik-e-Insaf
...a political party in Pakistan. PTI was founded by former Pakistani cricket captain and philanthropist Imran Khan. The party's slogan is Justice, Humanity and Self Esteem, each of which is open to widely divergent interpretations....
(PTI) in Islamabad as well as a surge in terrorist attacks in parts of the country.

A day earlier, a Pakistain Army lieutenant colonel was among six soldiers who embraced martyrdom during a shootout with turbans in North Wazoo's Spinwam area.

The attack came as the country has witnessed a surge in terror incidents with total fatalities from three-quarters of the ongoing year surpassing the total fatalities recorded for the entire 2023 as reflected in the data gathered by the Centre for Research and Security Studies (CRSS).

PM Shehbaz slams PTI''s ''politics of violence'' following policeman''s martyrdom

...a political party in Pakistan. PTI was founded by former Pakistani cricket captain and philanthropist Imran Khan. The party's slogan is Justice, Humanity and Self Esteem, each of which is open to widely divergent interpretations....
(PTI) protests in Islamabad turned deadly.

Condemning the tragic incident, PM Shehbaz castigated the Imran Khan
...aka The Great Khan, who anti-establishment Pak premier, who was hounded out of office, arrested, jailed, and will likely be hung by his political opponents...
-founded party, accusing it of always adopting the path of violence under the guise of protest.

The premier's comments came after a policeman, Abdul Hameed, was attacked by miscreants and badly tortured while performing his duties at Chungi Number 26 on GT Road.

Later, the cop — reportedly subjected to violence after being "kidnapped" — departed this vale of tears.

The law and order situation in Islamabad remained volatile as PTI tried to stage a protest at D-Chowk, despite the imposition of Section 144 (which bars political activities and gatherings) in the twin cities to ensure security ahead of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation's meeting.

The opposition party initiated a series of protests for the independence of the judiciary and the release of its founder, Imran Khan, who has been incarcerated at Rawalpindi's Adiala Jail for more than a year.

Clashes also broke out between law enforcers and party workers, with both sides blaming each other for starting the violence.

A woman has been 'executed' during a suspected terror attack which left 10 more injured in the southern Israeli city of Beersheba.

The shooter, named locally by the Israel Hayom as Ahmed Suliman Al-Ukbi, 29, an Israeli citizen, had opened fire at a central bus station before targeting a McDonald's and a nearby coffeeshop before police arrived.

The ambulance service earlier said a severely wounded woman in her twenties was being treated at the scene before she succumbed to her injuries, as security forces remain on high alert ahead of the anniversary of Hamas' October 7 attack on Israel.

The assailant was killed by cops at the scene, but police forces from the Southern District remained at the shooting site while they searched for accomplices, saying that 'the situation is still active.'

A witness at the scene told N12 News he saw soldiers fire at the assailant, who media reported was a member of the Bedouin minority in Israel's Negev desert.

Another 10 other people were hurt in the attack, including one in a moderate to serious condition, who is receiving treatment in nearby Soroka Hospital.

Police did not identify the assailant but said they were treating it as a terror attack.

Following the attack, National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir called for the deportation of the terrorist despite his Israeli citizenship and his family, according to Israeli media.

'I call on the Prime Minister to pass the law we proposed today to deport families of terrorists. Pass the law of deporting families of terrorists,' he said.

'There are many Bedouins loyal to the state, but there are some who are not. Those who are unfaithful should be dealt with firmly.'

This is the second mass shooting incident in Israel in a week.

A suspected terror attack was reported in Israel's Tel Aviv on October 1 with Israeli police reporting a suspected shooting in Jaffa that resulted in multiple casualties.

Police confirmed that eight people were killed and seven others were injured in the attack, which occurred on Jerusalem Street near a light rail station.

Sunday's mass shooting comes after Israel last night launched 30 airstrikes on Lebanon just a day before the anniversary of the October 7 massacre.

Terrifying video footage captured the moment an orange blaze erupted above Lebanon's capital with reports suggesting the strike may have hit a petrol station, according to a map provided by the Israeli military.

Lebanon's official National News Agency said the Hezbollah stronghold in south Beirut was hit by more than 30 strikes overnight, which were heard across the city, with smoke still seen billowing from the site after dawn.

Israel's military said it 'conducted a series of strikes on a number of weapons storage facilities' and infrastructure, stressing it had taken 'numerous steps were taken to mitigate the risk of harming civilians'.

In the Sabra area, near the southern suburbs, dozens of people, some carrying bags on foot and others on motorbikes, fled one of the most intense bombardments of the Israel-Hezbollah war.

Israel says it's now struck more than 2,000 Hezbollah targets in southern Lebanon and the Iranian-backed militia group continues to fire back.

In a televised address last night Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the country was fighting against the forces of 'barbarism', led by Iran.

In a Sunday morning update from the IDF, it said the Israeli air force intercepted a 'number' of aerial targets launched from Lebanese territory overnight.

The post on X says the targets did not cross into Israeli territory but that alerts were issued due to the risk of fragments falling from the sky.

It followed warnings being issued in the Western Galilee area.

In a separate update from earlier, the IDF also said an Israeli navy missile ship intercepted two drones 'launched from the east' in the Mediterranean Sea, while the air force intercepted one unmanned aerial device (UAV) in the maritime area off the coast of Gush Dan - also launched from the east.

No casualties were reported in either case, it added.
The Times of Israel adds:
The victim was identified as Sgt. Shira Suslik, 19, a Border Police officer from Beersheba. She was killed when a gunman stormed into a McDonald’s in the southern city’s central bus station and opened fire on those inside.

The shooter, who was said to be killed at the scene by IDF soldiers, was identified as Ahmad al-Uqbi, 29, an Israeli citizen from the unrecognized Bedouin village of Uqbi, near Hura. He is said to have a prior criminal record.

The Magen David Adom ambulance service said that 10 people were wounded in the attack and taken for treatment to the Soroka Medical Center, including a woman in serious condition and four men in moderate condition, all of whom sustained gunshot wounds.

Another five were listed in good condition after being hit by glass shards or blunt trauma, while three others were treated for acute anxiety, MDA added.

In November 2023, Suslik posted on Instagram about celebrating her 19th birthday in the shadow of war, writing that the situation “gives even more meaning to the privilege I have to celebrate life in uniform, just over a month after kids my age were killed in battle for the state in the same uniform.”

In a statement, the Israel Police said she is survived by her parents and three siblings.

According to the Kan public broadcaster, al-Uqbi is a relative of Muhanad al-Uqbi, from the same Bedouin town, who carried out a deadly 2015 terror shooting inside the Beersheba central bus station.

#3  An dramatic video, Glavinter Peacock7962, but dated Oct 1, 2024. Still, the IDF expected today to be busy, given that it’s the one year anniversary of the 10/7/2023 massacre, so they geared up last night and prepared to repel boarders. Probably there are more videos like yours showing what happened today and tonight, about to be posted. I imagine you’ll find us a good one.

Large strikes in Beirut target Hezbollah - check out the gorgeous secondaries!
[IsraelTimes] Targets reportedly include building near Lebanese airport and one previously used by Hezbollah-tied Al-Manar broadcaster; IDF issues new evacuation alerts for 25 areas in south Lebanon.

on Sunday, with the military saying it carried out a series of pinpoint attacks on Hezbollah targets in Beirut overnight, including several weapons depots and other terror infrastructure.

The strikes caused large fireballs and huge plumes of smoke in the southern suburbs of the Lebanese capital. Smoke was still billowing from the site after dawn. The Lebanese health ministry did not release information on casualties.

The strikes reportedly targeted a building near a road leading to Lebanon’s international airport and another formerly used by the Hezbollah-run broadcaster al-Manar.

The military said the strikes were preceded by extensive steps to avoid harm to civilians, including advance warning.

The IDF accused Hezbollah of placing its arms storage and production sites under residential buildings in the Lebanese capital, endangering the population, and vowed to keep striking Hezbollah’s military assets in full force.

On Sunday morning, Lebanese media reported another large Israeli strike in Beirut. There was no immediate comment from the IDF.

The Lebanese health ministry said Sunday that Israeli strikes killed 23 people across the country a day earlier. An additional 93 were maimed, the ministry said, without including casualties in the airstrikes on Beirut’s southern suburbs after midnight. The health ministry figures did not differentiate between civilians and combatants.

The military said one airstrike killed Hezbollah’s company commander in the southern Lebanese village of Kafr Kila, who was responsible for a deadly anti-tank missile attack in January. Hader Ali Tawil was behind the attack that killed Barak Ayalon, 45, and his mother Miri Ayalon, 76, when an anti-tank missile slammed into their home in Kfar Yuval, the IDF said.

The strikes came amid continued rocket fire and drone launches from Lebanon at northern Israel on Sunday.

Fighting continued in southern Lebanon as the IDF issued new evacuation alerts for residents of around 25 areas in southern Lebanon, calling on them to head immediately north of the Awali River.

Meanwhile,
...back at the barn, Bossy's udder had begun to ache...
Lebanon’s Prime Minister Najib Mikati called for "pressure on Israel" for a ceasefire as Hezbollah continued to fire rockets and launch drones at Israel. Mikati said he backed US and French efforts for a truce.

Lebanon said the start of the new school year was being postponed until November 4 due to the escalation in fighting. Education Minister Abbas Halabi said the start date for more than one million students would be delayed because of "security risks."

Israel says it has widened operations against Hezbollah to enable the safe return to their homes in the north of some 60,000 Israeli civilians who were evacuated when the Iran-backed terror group began firing rockets on October 8. Hezbollah said the attacks were in support of the Paleostinians in Gazoo

’s devastating onslaught a day earlier.

So far, the skirmishes in the north have resulted in 26 civilian deaths on the Israeli side, and — excluding the soldiers killed in the ground operation — the deaths of 22 IDF soldiers and reservists.

Two soldiers have been killed in a drone attack from Iraq, and there have also been several attacks from Syria, without any injuries.

The IDF’s toll in the ground offensive against Hezbollah in Lebanon stands at nine.

Hezbollah has named 516 members who have been killed by Israel during the ongoing skirmishes, mostly in Lebanon but some also in Syria. Another 94 operatives from other terror groups, a Lebanese soldier, and dozens of civilians have also been killed.

These numbers have not been consistently updated since Israel began a new offensive against Hezbollah in September, including a ground operation in which the military says at least 440 Hezbollah operatives have been killed.

Iran grounds all flights through Monday morning for ''operational restrictions'', but nothing happened
*Snicker*
[NYPOST] All flights from Iran's airports were canceled on Sunday through 6 a.m. local time on Monday due to ''operational restrictions,'' according to reports.

Iran's state media cited a spokesperson for Iran's Civil Aviation Organization, which announced the flight cancellations.

State media said the flights were canceled due to operational restrictions, though no further details were provided.

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...

The Times of Israel adds:
Flight restrictions were then lifted after ensuring safe conditions, state media reports, some six hours before rules grounding flights from airports around the country were due to expire.

While the US has generally supported Israel’s intention to retaliate, saying that it would work with Israel to ensure consequences for the attack, but has urged the Jewish state not to hit Iran’s oil facilities.

The US has offered Israel compensation in the form of diplomatic support and increased military aid in exchange for not targeting certain Iranian sites, according to a report by the Kan public broadcaster on Sunday evening.

“We take the US, our ally, into consideration and are always willing to listen, but at the same time, we will do whatever necessary to protect Israel’s citizens and security,” an unnamed Israeli source told the news outlet in response.

Additionally, several suspected drones launched from Lebanon were shot down by Israeli air defenses, the IDF said.

According to the military, the "suspicious aerial targets" did not cross into Israeli airspace.
