Israel HELPS Pro-ISIS Group in Gaza Clash? Airstrike KILLS Hamas Fighters |IDF, Proxies to End Hamas

In a shocking turn, Israeli forces launched a drone airstrike in Gaza that targeted Hamas fighters—just as they clashed with an ISIS-linked faction. The strike killed four Hamas members and marked the first time Israel is seen directly aiding a Daesh-affiliated group. Netanyahu admitted to arming anti-Hamas militias in Gaza following a leak by Avigdor Lieberman. The targeted group, led by Yasser Abu Shabab, has long-standing ISIS ties. Netanyahu defended the move, claiming it helps save Israeli soldiers’ lives—raising new questions about covert alliances and proxy warfare in Gaza. #Israel #Hamas #ISIS #Gaza #MiddleEastConflict #IDF #Netanyahu #Airstrike #ProxyWar #Daesh #AbuShabab #HAMAS #HamasVsISIS #LiebermanLeak #NetanyahuSpeech Also Read Israel Retrieves Body of Thai Hostage as Military Actions Result in 95 Fatalities in Gaza :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israel-retrieves-body-of-thai-hostage-amid-gaza-conflict-011-4175299.html?ref=DMDesc Middle East: UN Labels Gaza 'The Hungriest Place On Earth' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/middle-east-un-labels-gaza-the-hungriest-place-on-earth-4168609.html?ref=DMDesc Shots Fired Outside CIA Headquarters Hours After Israeli Embassy Staff Killings :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/shots-fired-outside-cia-headquarters-hours-after-israeli-embassy-staff-killings-4161067.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~GR.125~

Netanyahu makes BIG Admission in fight against Hamas | Opposition BLASTS the Prime Minister

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has admitted to secretly arming militias in Gaza to fight Hamas—without cabinet approval—sparking political uproar. Opposition leaders, including Avigdor Liberman and Yair Lapid, condemned the move, warning these militias could turn against Israel. Critics say Netanyahu is empowering extremists akin to “ISIS,” destabilizing Gaza further. Hamas denounced the militias as criminal traitors, vowing retaliation. With no oversight or long-term strategy, concerns grow over the explosive consequences of Netanyahu’s covert weapons program.

Iran’s SILENT REVENGE? Khamenei Rearms Proxies For ‘Final’ War With U.S. & Israel [Video]

Iran’s SILENT REVENGE? Khamenei Rearms Proxies For ‘Final’ War With U.S. & Israel

Iran is secretly rearming its regional proxies after the ceasefire with Israel, plotting a “silent revenge” against the U.S. and its allies. Houthi rebels have resumed Red Sea attacks, Hezbollah is regrouping despite major losses, and Iranian-backed militias in Iraq are targeting vital oil fields. With Assad’s fall blocking key supply routes, Tehran is racing to rebuild its network of influence. U.S. officials warn Iran could use these proxies as leverage in future nuclear talks, raising fears of a renewed wave of proxy wars across the Middle East. #Iran #SilentRevenge #IranProxies #MiddleEastConflict #AxisOfResistance #Hezbollah #Houthis #IRGC #IsraelIranTensions #USIran #ProxyWar #IranNews #RegionalTensions #Tehran #IranIsraelConflict #RedSeaAttacks #IranianProxies #YemenWar #IraqDrones #LebanonHezbollah #SyriaConflict #KurdistanOil #IranianWeapons #NuclearTalks #MiddleEastWar #IranEscalation #Geopolitics #TehranStrategy #IranVsUS #IranVsIsrael #BreakingNews Also Read India Advises Its Citizens Against Non-Essential Travel To Iran :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/india-advises-its-citizens-against-non-essential-travel-to-iran-7802657.html?ref=DMDesc Iran To Buy Chinese J-10C Fighter Jets :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/iran-to-buy-chinese-j-10c-fighter-jets-7788123.html?ref=DMDesc Iran’s Uranium Mystery: 400kg Vanishes Without a Trace :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/iran-s-uranium-mystery-400kg-vanishes-without-a-trace-011-7787491.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.102~HT.408~

Israel and Syria Uniting to ISOLATE Iran? Two BIG Reasons Behind Al-Shara's Tectonic Shift Explained [Video]

Israel and Syria Uniting to ISOLATE Iran? Two BIG Reasons Behind Al-Shara's Tectonic Shift Explained

In a stunning diplomatic development, officials from Israel and Syria are holding quiet, backchannel talks for the first time in over a decade. This move comes after months of intense regional conflict involving Iran-backed groups like Hamas and Hezbollah, pushing both Jerusalem and Damascus to reassess their long-standing enmity. The United States, with backing from Donald Trump and his envoy Tom Barrack Jr., is mediating the effort, aiming to cool tensions along the volatile Golan Heights border. At the center of this pivot is Syria's new president, Ahmed al-Shara, who has signaled a dramatic shift from the hardline rejectionism of the Bashar al-Assad era. The primary driver for this newfound diplomacy is a shared strategic goal: limiting the influence of Iran and its proxies in southern Syria. For Israel, this is a matter of national security; for al-Shara's new government, it's a path toward securing sovereignty, gaining Western legitimacy, and obtaining much-needed economic relief. While full normalization seems distant, both sides are exploring a revival of the 1974 U.N. Disengagement Agreement, which previously ensured stability in the Golan Heights. In a significant gesture, the Trump administration has lifted the terrorist designation on al-Shara's former group, and Israeli leaders have softened their tone, describing him as someone they could potentially work with. However, analysts remain cautious, pointing to al-Shara’s past and the lack of public support for peace in Syria as major hurdles. Despite the challenges, the fact that these talks are happening at all represents a potential seismic shift in Middle East politics. This report breaks down the key players, the high stakes, and what this surprising diplomacy could mean for the future of the region. #IsraelSyriaTalks #MiddleEast #BreakingNews #WorldNews #Israel #Syria #DonaldTrump #Iran #OneindiaNews #AhmedAlShara,

Trump, Al-Sharaa on GIANT Hoardings in Damascus | Syrians thank U.S President for lifting sanctions

Giant billboards of Donald Trump and Syrian President Ahmed Al-Sharaa have appeared in Damascus, thanking Trump for lifting U.S. sanctions on Syria. The hoardings read “Strong Leaders Make Peace” and “Syrian People Thank You.” This follows Trump’s June 30 executive order ending broad sanctions to support Syria’s post-Assad regime. Al-Sharaa, a controversial former Al-Nusra figure, has pledged inclusive governance. Trump met him in May, calling him “tough” and “attractive,” marking the first U.S.-Syria leader meeting in 20+ years. #Trump #Syria #AlSharaa #MiddleEastPolitics #SanctionsLifted #USForeignPolicy #Damascus #BreakingNews #TrumpInSyria #Geopolitics #PeaceInitiative #TrumpMoves #SyriaReconstruction #AssadFall #SyrianLeadership #Diplomacy #StrongLeaders #TrumpAlSharaa #GlobalPolitics #USSanctions #TrumpSpeech #MiddleEastUpdate #WhiteHouse #SyrianPeople #PoliticalShift #TrumpExecutiveOrder #ForeignRelations Also Read US President Donald Trump Announces 25% Tariffs On Japan, South Korea :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-president-donald-trump-announces-25-tariffs-on-japan-south-korea-7794333.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Calls Musk’s America Party Plan ‘Ridiculous’ And ‘Unworkable’ :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-calls-musk-s-america-party-plan-ridiculous-and-unworkable-7793443.html?ref=DMDesc America Will Be Richer, Safer, and Prouder: Trump As Big, Beautiful Bill Passes Congress :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-s-big-beautiful-bill-passes-congress-in-big-win-for-us-president-011-7790919.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.420~HT.408~

Saudi Arabia to give $6Bn to Syria | Big jolt to Netanyahu | Israel's role in Syrian Civil War ends?

Saudi Arabia has signed over $6 billion in investment deals with Syria, signaling strong support for President Al-Sharaa amid ongoing unrest. The agreements cover energy, infrastructure, real estate, and agriculture, aiming to revive Syria’s war-torn economy and create up to 200,000 jobs. Analysts see this as a major geopolitical shift—and a blow to Israel’s regional influence—as Tel Aviv has actively targeted Syrian positions during its civil war. The move comes after Saudi and Qatari efforts cleared Syria’s World Bank debt, unlocking fresh international lending. #SaudiSyriaDeal #MiddleEastShift #SyriaReconstruction #BreakingNews #IsraelBlow #AlSharaa #SaudiInvestment #SyrianCivilWar #Geopolitics #DruzeCrisis #QatarSyriaDebt #MiddleEastUpdate #DamascusDeals #EnergyInvestment #SaudiDiplomacy #ArabUnity #RebuildSyria #SyriaEconomy #IsraelVsSyria #ConstructionBoom #NetanyahuSetback #HumanRightsCrisis #PostWarRecovery #WesternSanctions #SaudiSoftPower #GulfPolitics #SyriaNews #SectarianUnrest #JobCreation #SyriaFuture #RedrawingAlliances #oneindianews #oneindiaenglish #breakingnews #worldnews #englishnewslive #englishnews #latestnews #news ~HT.410~ED.194~
