A new video shows an Israeli drone crossing into Lebanon near Haddatha village, signaling potential further strikes on Hezbollah targets. Israel has carried out multiple drone operations, targeting alleged operatives and rocket sites, while critics accuse it of endangering civilians. The campaign aims to enforce the November 2024 ceasefire, demilitarize Hezbollah, and weaken Iran’s regional influence. Diplomatic pressure from the U.S. and France is ongoing, but Hezbollah continues to resist disarmament. Netanyahu’s operations are escalating tensions, destabilizing local governance, and drawing international scrutiny.

In a chilling echo of the October 7 attacks, 18 Hamas fighters launched a brazen assault on an IDF military base, attempting to breach defenses and abduct Israeli soldiers. The fighters reportedly tried to replicate the shock tactics of last year’s attack, triggering a fierce firefight with Israeli forces.
According to early reports, the attackers were heavily armed and sought to seize hostages, but the plot was foiled after a rapid Israeli military response. The IDF confirmed clashes at the base, underscoring ongoing security threats and the high stakes of the conflict.

Israel’s Defense Minister Israel Katz has approved Operation Gideon’s Chariots II, a major IDF plan to capture Gaza City. Backed by Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir, the operation will call up 60,000 reservists to reinforce troops already deployed. Civilians will be evacuated south before the offensive, aimed at isolating Hamas. Families of hostages expressed concern over risks, while Egypt’s ceasefire proposal was rejected for excluding all hostages. Katz declared Israel is at a decisive stage and vowed no hostage will be left behind.

A senior military advisor to Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, has issued a stark warning: there is no ceasefire in place, Tehran and Jerusalem remain in a state of war, and the threat of renewed conflict looms large. Yahya Rahim Safavi, a key military aide, emphasized the urgency of bolstering Iran’s military capabilities, specifically its missile, drone, and cyber capacities, as preparations escalate. In chilling terms, Safavi declared: “We are not in a ceasefire… another war may happen,” adding ominously that such a clash could unfold "at any time." His message leaves little room for optimism.

Hamas’ Al-Quds Brigades fired Quds-3 rockets at Israeli positions near the Nir Am settlement in the Gaza envelope, claiming the strike was retaliation for Minister Ben Gvir’s controversial actions at the Al-Aqsa Mosque. New combat visuals show fighters preparing and launching the rockets from infiltration axes inside Gaza. The militants say the attack targeted Israeli troops before, during, and after the Gideon’s Chariots operation. As Israel pushes deeper into Gaza under Netanyahu’s new control plan, Hamas-aligned groups intensify guerrilla strikes on IDF forces and armored units.
