Iran has issued a fierce denunciation of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s recent remarks promoting the so-called “Greater Israel” project, branding it a “diabolical idea” rooted in fascist intent. Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei accused Netanyahu of openly declaring his regime’s ambition to seize territory from Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, and Syria in a blatant violation of the UN Charter and international law.
Baghaei condemned the plan as a direct assault on regional sovereignty, warning it would impose occupation over Muslim nations and expand ongoing atrocities in Palestine. The spokesman also urged the UN, the Organization of Islamic Cooperation, and all world governments to condemn the scheme. Drawing attention to the worsening humanitarian disaster in Gaza, he called for urgent Arab and Muslim unity to deliver aid, end the genocide, and hold Israeli leaders fully accountable for war crimes and systemic violations.

In a historic first, Hamas has also been added to the list for sexu@l violence during the October 7 massacre and against hostages, following evidence from Project Dinah

Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas is expected to announce a unilateral declaration of Palestinian statehood at the September UN General Assembly, outlining borders and constitutional principles until a full constitution is passed. France, the UK, and other nations signal possible recognition, with President Macron pledging support. Israel’s National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir has condemned the plan, urging Netanyahu to dismantle the PA. The move could mark a turning point in Palestine’s international recognition strategy, but risks sparking intense political backlash.

Hamas has condemned Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu’s “Greater Israel” remarks as “madness” and a threat to regional stability, urging Arab states to cut ties with Israel and back Palestinian resistance. Hamas accused Israel of using settler violence as part of an annexation strategy in the West Bank, vowing continued defiance against occupation. Iran’s Foreign Ministry also slammed the plan, warning it targets territories in Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, and Syria. Netanyahu called the vision a historical and spiritual mission for Israel.

Israeli media report plans to call up 80,000–100,000 IDF reserve troops for a potential occupation of Gaza City under PM Netanyahu’s strategy to dismantle Hamas. The operation, approved in principle by IDF Chief of Staff Herzi Halevi, could last until late 2026. Hamas vows fierce resistance, condemning Netanyahu’s “Greater Israel” remarks as dangerous delusion. With Israel already engaged on multiple fronts, including Lebanon and Yemen, tensions are soaring. Hamas claims recent strikes on an Israeli Merkava 4 tank and D9 bulldozer.

Six Lebanese soldiers were killed on Saturday in a powerful explosion at a Hezbollah weapons depot in Wadi Zibqin, near the Israeli border. The Lebanese army said troops were dismantling munitions from the Iran-backed group’s facility when the blast occurred. The tragedy comes just days after Beirut announced a plan to disarm Hezbollah by year’s end under heavy U.S. pressure, a move strongly opposed by both Hezbollah and Iran.
UN peacekeepers recently uncovered fortified tunnels and large weapons caches in the same area. The incident underscores the volatile climate in southern Lebanon despite last year’s ceasefire with Israel, which mandated that only Lebanese state forces hold arms. Israeli strikes on Hezbollah targets have continued, further inflaming tensions. Investigations are underway into the cause of the deadly blast as leaders mourn the fallen soldiers.

Thousands of Hezbollah supporters took to Lebanon’s streets in a massive show of force, unleashing a roaring sea of vehicles that stretched for miles. Horns blared, flags waved, and convoys snaked through Beirut and beyond, protesting the government’s US-backed plan to Strip the group of its weapons. The demonstration — dominated by Iran-aligned loyalists — sent a defiant message that Hezbollah will not yield its arms, which it calls vital for defending Lebanon against Israel.

Hamas welcomed the BRICS summit statement demanding an immediate ceasefire in Gaza and full Israeli withdrawal. The BRICS communiqué accused Israel of using starvation as a weapon of war and condemned its ongoing military siege. With over 57,400 Palestinians killed, BRICS backed Palestinian statehood with East Jerusalem as its capital. Hamas urged BRICS nations-including China, Russia, and South Africa-to intensify global pressure on Israel’s blockade and occupation. The group also reaffirmed support for UNRWA and denounced aid politicization in Gaza.
