Beirut 'like a horror movie': Families return from Lebanon after fleeing Israeli bombings
Saturday, 28 September 2024 Beirut was "like a horror movie," a man who returned to the UK from Lebanon told Sky News after witnessing Israel's airstrikes first-hand.
An Israeli airstrike on Beirut killed three senior PFLP commanders, marking the first such attack on central Beirut since the Gaza war began. The PFLP, a significant PLO member, lost key figures including Mohammed Abed al-Al. Lebanon reported over 100 deaths from Israeli bombardments in 24 hours. In...
Nasser Al-Laham, the prominent head of Al Mayadeen TV’s Palestine bureau, has been arrested by Israeli forces following a violent pre-dawn raid on his home. According to reports by Al Mayadeen, Shin Bet officers stormed the house and destroyed belongings while searching for the studio from where Al-Laham appeared on-air.
The arrest comes amid increasing crackdowns on pro-resistance media voices in the occupied territories. Al-Laham was transferred to the notorious Ofer Court in the occupied West Bank, where his detention was extended until Thursday. The operation has triggered outrage among journalists, human rights groups, and regional media networks, who condemn the targeting of press freedom. Al Mayadeen, a Beirut-based channel often critical of Israel and aligned with the Resistance Axis, has described the arrest as an attempt to silence Palestinian voices. This development adds further tension to an already volatile West Bank, where media suppression is becoming increasingly common.

Hezbollah’s Deputy Secretary-General Sheikh Naim Qassem delivers a fiery warning to Israel and the U.S., vowing that Lebanon will never surrender to foreign “tyranny.” Speaking from Beirut, Qassem declared the resistance against Israeli occupation and American influence as “divine and unstoppable.” As Israeli strikes escalate in South Lebanon, Hezbollah calls for national unity, warns against Western-backed factions, and frames its struggle as one for dignity, justice, and regional sovereignty. A bold message amid rising Middle East tensions.

In blatant defiance of a ceasefire agreement, Israeli drone strikes on Saturday killed at least two people and wounded several others in southern Lebanon. A drone strike in Mahrouna targeted a motorcycle, killing one and injuring two bystanders in a passing car. Hours earlier, another Israeli UAV strike hit a vehicle in Kounine, killing a Hezbollah resistance fighter, identified as Hassan Mohammad Jumaa.
These attacks mark yet another violation of the extended truce that began on November 27 and was supposed to hold past February 18. Despite its expiration, Lebanon had hoped for stability, but Israel’s continued occupation of strategic southern areas and recurring strikes have reignited regional tensions. Beirut has condemned the aggression and vowed to take “all necessary measures” to end Israel’s unlawful military presence. The international community remains silent as Tel Aviv pushes the boundaries of legality and human rights with impunity.

Officials praised Iran's military and intelligence services for what they described as a “historic triumph” over Israeli operations.

Israel's Defense Minister Israel Katz has threatened further strikes on Lebanon unless Hezbollah disarms, following recent airstrikes on Beirut’s southern suburbs. The IDF claims it targeted an Iran-backed Hezbollah drone unit, though Hezbollah denies this. Lebanon’s President Aoun condemned the attack as a breach of international law, accusing Israel of endangering civilians to make a political statement. With tensions high and ceasefire lines crossed repeatedly, Lebanon's leaders demand international action to stop what they call systematic Israeli aggression.

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) are witnessing a disturbing surge in suicides, with five soldiers taking their own lives in just two weeks. This includes a 19-year-old Norwegian immigrant and a Golani Brigade serviceman, both victims of psychological trauma tied to Israel’s prolonged war in Gaza and its broader military campaigns across seven active fronts. In 2024 alone, over 20 IDF suicides have been confirmed, primarily among active-duty reservists recently returned from intense combat.
Army officials blame post-traumatic stress and long deployments for the spike. Opposition leaders are calling it a silent crisis, with thousands of soldiers withdrawing from combat roles due to mental breakdowns. Meanwhile, official numbers may underreport the true toll, as additional non-combat veterans’ deaths remain uncounted. With Israel’s military stretched thin across Gaza, Lebanon, Syria, Iran, Iraq, Yemen, and the West Bank, the cost is not only strategic—but deeply human.

Explosions have rocked the Israeli port city of Eilat, following a sudden missile and drone attack allegedly launched by Iran-backed Houthi fighters from Yemen. Sirens blared and fireballs lit up the night sky as Israeli air defenses attempted to intercept the incoming threats. The Houthi escalation marks a dangerous new front in the Middle East conflict, directly targeting Israeli territory far from Gaza or Lebanon.

On July 10, 2025, a missile launched from Yemen by Iran-backed Houthi rebels was intercepted by Israel’s air defense systems. Sirens blared across Jerusalem, central Israel, and parts of the West Bank as civilians rushed to shelters in panic. The IDF confirmed the interception and has since carried out retaliatory airstrikes on Houthi launch sites.
This strike is part of a growing wave of regional escalation, with missile threats now emerging from Gaza, Lebanon, and Yemen. Houthis claim the attack was in solidarity with Palestinians in Gaza, where over 57,000 have reportedly been killed since the Israeli military campaign began in late 2023. With tensions mounting, the region stands on the brink of a broader war.

A Comoros-flagged livestock ship was attacked off Yemen’s Red Sea coast near Mocha by unidentified gunmen in a small boat. The vessel was en route from Somalia to Saudi Arabia when it came under fire. Though no group has claimed responsibility, the incident adds to growing fears over shipping safety amid ongoing Houthi threats. Security firm Ambrey warns vessels to avoid eastern waters near the Hanish Islands. With the U.S. drawing back and Israel escalating strikes, tensions in the Red Sea continue to rise.

In a dramatic shift on the global chessboard, Israel and Ukraine have agreed to initiate a joint dialogue aimed at neutralizing the growing threat posed by Iran. Both nations—haunted by Iran’s military exports and nuclear ambitions—announced the new cooperation in Kyiv during Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar’s visit. Ukraine accuses Iran of fuelling Russia’s war machine with kamikaze drones, while Israel views Iran’s nuclear program as an existential threat.
Foreign Minister Andriy Sybiga of Ukraine declared Iran a “global security menace,” and thanked Israel for its surprise strike on Iranian military targets last month. The move marks a pivotal tightening of Israel–Ukraine ties, despite past tensions over Israel’s neutrality in the Russia-Ukraine war. Both countries have now drawn a clear red line around Tehran’s expanding influence—and plan to counter it. The anti-Iran dialogue could reshape the Middle East–Eastern Europe dynamic in the months ahead.

A horrifying Israeli airstrike killed the Al-Shaer family — including journalist Wala al-Jaabari, her husband, and their five starving children — while they were sleeping in Gaza City. Blood-soaked white shrouds marked their bodies, with names scribbled in pen. According to Gaza’s Health Ministry, over 100 Palestinians were killed in just 24 hours, including 10 from starvation.
More than 111 have starved to death in recent weeks as aid remains blocked. While Israel blames Hamas and claims enough aid is allowed, the UN and relief groups accuse Israel of choking humanitarian access and shooting civilians near aid points. Amid ongoing ceasefire talks led by the U.S., Qatar, and Egypt, peace remains elusive. Hamas has responded to the latest proposal with conditions, but Israeli hardliners threaten to collapse the government if concessions are made. As children starve and corpses pile, diplomacy struggles to keep up with the carnage.
