Genocide of Gazans
The Israeli regime continues its genocidal onslaught on Gaza, killing more Palestinians in its incessant air and artillery strikes. In the latest airstrikes, 52 Palestinians lost their lives across the besieged strip, including 30 people sheltering in a UN-run school in the southern city of Khan Yunis. The UN says this is the fourth school to be hit in the past four days. The total Palestinian death toll is now nearing 38,300 since early October. The regime has ordered residents there to leave the city. That comes amid efforts to resume Gaza ceasefire talks. Hamas says Israel is deliberately escalating attacks to delay the negotiations.
Hezbollah warning
The Hezbollah Secretary General has stressed resistance fighters will not stop attacking Israel until after the regime ends its genocidal war on Gaza. Seyyed Hassan Nasrallah made the remark at a memorial service for slain resistance leader Mohammad Nimer Nasser. He reaffirmed the resistance's support for and commitment to the al-Aqsa flood operation. The Hezbollah chief said the movement’s border conflict with Israel aims to drain the regime’s capabilities and press it into stopping the war on Gaza. Nasrallah said the Israeli enemy has conceded to the strategic achievements of the resistance in Gaza, and admitted its failures there. He added a clear sign of such defeat is the regime’s forced drafting of ultra-orthodox Jews to replenish its depleted army. As regards tensions at the border, Nasrallah stressed Hezbollah is fully prepared to repel any large-scale aggression on its soil.
US military aid for Ukraine
US President Joe Biden announces plans to supply new air defenses to Ukraine in his opening speech at the NATO summit in Washington. During the speech Biden also vowed that Ukraine will get critical air defense interceptors before anyone else. According to the NATO Chief, the Ukraine war is high on the summit's agenda and decisions will be made regarding the country’s situation. NATO is celebrating its 75th anniversary with a three-day summit where 32 members of the alliance and the Ukrainian president are in attendance. Meanwhile, the Kremlin says it is following the summit with the greatest attention. Moscow sees NATO as a vehicle for US dominance and has accused the western military alliance of returning to a Cold War mindset. Russia has repeatedly warned that providing arms to Kiev would only prolong the war.
