Hamas Rips into ‘MAD’ Netanyahu over ‘DELIRIOUS’ plans of ‘Greater Israel’ | Vows REVENGE for Gaza

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. #Hamas #Netanyahu #GreaterIsrael #Palestine #Israel #Gaza #WestBank #MiddleEastConflict #BreakingNews #Iran #ArabWorld #Resistance #OccupiedTerritories #Annexation #RegionalTensions #PalestinianRights #IsraelPolitics #MiddleEastNews #Jerusalem #GazaWar #PalestinianResistance #SettlerViolence #InternationalRelations #IranIsrael #RegionalStability Also Read Netanyahu Defends Expanded Military Offensive in Gaza Amid Domestic and International Criticism :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/netanyahu-defends-new-military-offensive-in-gaza-011-7825995.html?ref=DMDesc Netanyahu Defends Expanded Military Offensive in Gaza Amid Domestic and International Concerns :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/netanyahu-defends-new-military-offensive-in-gaza-011-7825985.html?ref=DMDesc Netanyahu Defends Expanded Military Offensive in Gaza Amid International Criticism :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/netanyahu-defends-new-military-offensive-in-gaza-011-7825981.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.194~HT.408~

‘Greater Israel Or Fascist Plot’ Iran Slams Netanyahu For Israel’s Expansion Plan As Gaza Starves [Video]

‘Greater Israel Or Fascist Plot’ Iran Slams Netanyahu For Israel’s Expansion Plan As Gaza Starves

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. #Iran #Netanyahu #GreaterIsrael #FascistIntent #MiddleEast #Palestine #Gaza #WarCrimes #InternationalLaw #UNCharter #OIC #ArabUnity #MuslimUnity #StopGenocide #HumanRights #IsraelPalestine #Occupation #RegionalSecurity #EndApartheid #GlobalCondemnation ~HT.410~GR.124~ED.103~

Iron Dome Fails? Houthis RAIN UAVs On ‘Criminal Zionists’ | Attack Sparks PANIC And SIRENS | Israel [Video]

Iron Dome Fails? Houthis RAIN UAVs On ‘Criminal Zionists’ | Attack Sparks PANIC And SIRENS | Israel

Tensions between Yemen’s Houthis and Israel escalated once again as the Israeli Defense Forces confirmed a drone attack launched from Yemen. Though intercepted mid-air by the Israeli Air Force, the unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) sent shockwaves across southern Israel. Sirens blared in towns like Sderot and Ibim, forcing residents to brace for impact. While the IDF later declared it a false identification, the psychological impact was undeniable. The Houthis, who have repeatedly warned of retaliation against Israeli aggression in Gaza and beyond, appear determined to demonstrate their reach. With no physical damage reported, the attack still achieved its objective—rattling Israeli nerves. This calculated strike underscores the Houthis' growing drone capabilities and rising confidence amid the wider regional unrest. As false alarms and interceptions multiply, so do fears of a larger confrontation that could drag Israel deeper into a multi-front conflict. #Houthis #Israel #DroneStrike #YemenAttack #IDF #IsraelAirForce #Sderot #Ibim #MiddleEastConflict #HouthisVsIsrael #HouthiDrone #IsraelUnderAttack #YemenStrikesBack #FalseAlarm #AirDefense #HouthiPower #RedAlertIsrael #GazaConflict #IsraelTensions #HouthiUAV ~ED.102~HT.318~GR.125~

Israel-Syria BREAKING: U.S Announces Israel-Syria Ceasefire | 300 Killed in Sweida Violence [Video]

Israel-Syria BREAKING: U.S Announces Israel-Syria Ceasefire | 300 Killed in Sweida Violence

Israel and Syria have reportedly agreed to a ceasefire after days of violent clashes between Druze and Bedouin communities in Syria’s southern Sweida province. Over 300 have died. The violence spiraled when Israel launched airstrikes on Damascus, claiming it was acting to protect the Druze minority. The Israeli Air Force targeted Syrian regime positions in the south, insisting on their withdrawal. Although Tel Aviv insists the action was to shield its "Druze brothers," experts suggest deeper motives, from political posturing to preventing a strong, unified Syria under interim President Ahmad al-Sharaa. While the U.S. confirmed the ceasefire, ground reports indicate that fighting continues in several regions. Netanyahu urged Israeli Druze not to cross the border. With historic roots of autonomy and past alliances, the Druze community finds itself fractured in post-Assad Syria, unsure of its place under the new regime. Is this protection-or a geopolitical gamble by Tel Aviv? #IsraelSyriaCeasefire #DruzeClashes #TelAvivStrike #DamascusBombing #SyriaUnrest #IDFStrikes #MiddleEastTensions #Netanyahu #GolanHeights #SweidaClashes #DruzeCommunity #AssadFallout #IsraelAirstrike #BRK #BedouinFighting #AhmadAlSharaa #GeopoliticalCrisis #USMiddleEastPolicy #AlJazeeraReports #SyriaNews ~ED.102~HT.408~GR.122~

Galaxy Leader Destroyed in Israeli Strike—Ship Used by Houthis to Mock IDF Finally Reduced to Rubble [Video]

Galaxy Leader Destroyed in Israeli Strike—Ship Used by Houthis to Mock IDF Finally Reduced to Rubble

In a dramatic escalation, the Israeli Air Force launched a precision night raid targeting the Houthi-controlled Galaxy Leader cargo ship — a vessel seized in 2023 and used as a propaganda symbol by Yemen’s Houthi forces. The IDF says the ship was repurposed for surveillance and terror coordination in the Red Sea, following the year-long captivity of 25 international crew members. This strike was part of Israel’s broader retaliation campaign under "Operation Black Flag" against Houthi infrastructure. Defense Minister Israel Katz warned that any tool used to threaten Israeli citizens would be eliminated — and this ship was no exception. Footage shows the Galaxy Leader engulfed in flames as Israeli fighter jets dropped dozens of munitions across western Yemen, including ports and power stations. The Red Sea is now a live combat zone, and the message from Israel is clear: No more warnings. #GalaxyLeader #IDFStrike #IsraelVsHouthis #RedSeaConflict #OperationBlackFlag #MiddleEastCrisis #HouthiRebels #IsraelDefenseForces #BreakingNews #Airstrike #MilitaryAction #HostageCrisis #YemenConflict #IranProxy #NavalWarfare
