Tory ex-Foreign Office minister investigated by party after Israel comments
Thursday, 4 April 2024 A Tory former Foreign Office minister is being investigated by his party after giving an interview in which he called for two Conservative peers and a minister to face repercussions for their support of Israel.
Ebrahim Raisi, the Iranian President known for his hard-line stance and close ties to the country's supreme leader, passed away at the age of 63. Raisi was heavily involved in the large-scale executions of thousands in 1988 and subsequently oversaw Iran's efforts to enrich uranium to levels close to those required for nuclear weapons. Additionally, he led Iran as it conducted a significant drone and missile strike against Israel. Given Raisi's polarising leadership and the myriad internal and external challenges confronting Iran, conjecture has arisen regarding the potential involvement of domestic adversaries or even external entities such as Israel.

Islamic Resistance in Iraq launched a drone attack on a strategic site in Israel's port of Eilat, targeting a vital installation. The group released a video showing the moment of the strike, claiming it as part of their ongoing struggle against the Israeli regime. This marks the first use of Al-Arfad suicide drones in operations against Israel. The frequency of such attacks has increased since the renewed Israeli offensive in Gaza. The resistance group pledged to continue targeting and destroying important Israeli installations.

In the heart of the night, tragedy unfolded in Gaza's central Nuseirat refugee camp as the relentless conflict between Israel and Gaza took another devastating turn. At least 20 lives were tragically cut short in an Israeli airstrike, shattering the peace of the Hassan family home.

Additionally, air raids targeted the vicinity of Kamal Adwan Hospital in Beit Lahia, located in the northern region of Gaza, adding to the already devastating toll of casualties.
