CHILLING FOOTAGE: Al-Qassam Fighters DESTROY Israeli Positions With Mortars & RPGs | IDF Backtracks?

Al-Quds Brigades have released new video footage showing mortar strikes on Israeli military positions in Khan Younis. The video captures masked fighters assembling and firing mortars from civilian areas, followed by multiple explosions targeting Israeli supply lines and troop buildings.

Hamas BLAMES Trump & Netanyahu for Sabotaging Gaza Ceasefire |Trump LIED to Send U.S Troops In Gaza? [Video]

Hamas BLAMES Trump & Netanyahu for Sabotaging Gaza Ceasefire |Trump LIED to Send U.S Troops In Gaza?

Another Gaza ceasefire deal has crumbled, with Hamas accusing former U.S. President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu of undermining peace efforts. Hamas officials claim they were never informed of the U.S.-Israel decision to abandon indirect talks. Trump blamed Hamas for “acting in bad faith,” hinting at possible U.S. military action in Gaza. As rockets rain on Israel and IDF strikes continue, families of hostages and thousands of Palestinians lose hope for an end to the conflict. Netanyahu echoed Trump, vowing “alternative options” with U.S. backing. #TrumpVsHamas #HamasVsIsrael #GazaCeasefire #AbuObeida #AlQassem #USArmyGaza #TrumpOnHamas #FinishTheJob #GazaNegotiations #GazaHostages #IsraelHamasWar #CeasefireTalks #HumanitarianCrisis #StandWithIsrael #StandWithGaza #TrumpStance #HamasRefusal #WarInGaza #MiddleEastConflict #HostageNegotiations #USPolicy #GazaRelief #TrumpSpeaks #IsraelDefense #HamasLeaders ~HT.410~

Israel, Ukraine Launch Joint Talks To CRUSH Iranian Threat Amid Rising WW3 And Nuclear Fears [Video]

Israel, Ukraine Launch Joint Talks To CRUSH Iranian Threat Amid Rising WW3 And Nuclear Fears

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. #IsraelUkraine #IranThreat #DroneWarfare #NuclearIran #MiddleEastTensions #UkraineWar #GideonSaar #AndriySybiga #TehranWarning #RussiaUkraine #IranianDrones #Geopolitics #AlliesAgainstIran #NuclearDealCollapse #AxisOfResistance #KyivDiplomacy #IsraelStrikesIran #MilitaryTechWar #GlobalSecurityCrisis #AntiIranAlliance ~HT.410~GR.124~ED.420~

Iran, Russia, China Unite in Nuclear Talks—US Sidelined, EU Threatens Sanctions Showdown in Istanbul

As global tensions rise, Iran hosts trilateral nuclear talks with Russia and China—just days before a critical summit with European powers in Istanbul. The U.S., once central to negotiations, now watches from the sidelines as Tehran rejects direct dialogue. With the 2015 nuclear deal hanging by a thread and “snapback” sanctions looming, the geopolitical stakes have never been higher. Will this new Iran–Russia–China axis reshape the global balance of power? And can Europe force Iran back into compliance—or will diplomacy collapse once again? #Iran #NuclearTalks #ChinaRussiaIran #USIran #SnapbackSanctions #MiddleEast #Geopolitics #IstanbulSummit #IranDeal #RussiaChinaAlliance #JCPOA #BreakingNews #GlobalDiplomacy #IranNuclearDeal #TehranTalks ~PR.274~HT.408~ED.420~

Iran's Nuclear Warning To U.S And Israel: Iran Refuses To QUIT Nuke Plans|Trump Says 'Will Strike..' [Video]

Iran's Nuclear Warning To U.S And Israel: Iran Refuses To QUIT Nuke Plans|Trump Says 'Will Strike..'

Iran has vowed to continue uranium enrichment despite devastating U.S. and Israeli airstrikes that severely damaged its nuclear sites. Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi called the program a “national pride,” rejecting any abandonment of nuclear ambitions. The strikes, which followed failed U.S.-Iran talks, sparked a 12-day air war before a ceasefire. Trump hailed the attack’s success, warning more strikes “if necessary.” Despite pressure, Tehran says it will rebuild its facilities, viewing nuclear power as a vital deterrent against Western and regional rivals. #Iran #USIranTensions #Israel #NuclearProgram #MiddleEastConflict #UraniumEnrichment #AbbasAraghchi #Trump #Airstrikes #Ceasefire #IranNuclearDeal #RegionalPower #Khamenei #USForeignPolicy #IsraelIranWar #Tehran #OmanTalks #MiddleEastNews #Geopolitics #MilitaryConflict #GlobalSecurity #IranVows #AirWar #NuclearSites #IranVsUS #DefenseStrategy #IranIsrael #WarThreats #NuclearCrisis #BreakingNews Also Read ChatGPT Surges: 2.5 Billion Daily Prompts Signal Massive User Growth :: https://www.oneindia.com/artificial-intelligence/chatgpt-surges-2-5-billion-daily-prompts-signal-massive-user-growth-011-7807321.html?ref=DMDesc Kristin Cabot Affair Drama: How a Coldplay Concert Threw a Boston Brahmin Family into the Limelight :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/kristin-cabot-affair-drama-how-a-coldplay-concert-threw-a-boston-brahmin-descendant-into-the-limeli-011-7807127.html?ref=DMDesc Andy Byron Divorce: Is Astronomer CEO’s Net Worth at Risk Over His Affair With HR Kristin Cabot? :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/andy-byron-divorce-is-astronomer-ceo-s-net-worth-at-risk-over-affair-with-hr-kristin-cabot-011-7806289.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~ED.103~GR.122~

Triple Threat to Trump|Moscow, Beijing, Tehran in a huddle over Nuclear Programme to challenge U.S

Russia, China, and Iran are set to hold high-level trilateral talks to counter renewed EU threats of snapback sanctions over Iran’s nuclear program. Tehran claims the U.S. is not part of any negotiation and rejects new IAEA demands as biased and unlawful. While France, Britain, and Germany warn of penalties unless Iran complies, Moscow and Beijing back Tehran’s call for diplomacy. Separate Iran-EU talks in Istanbul are scheduled, but Iran maintains it will not engage with the U.S., escalating nuclear tensions ahead of a critical month. #IranNuclearDeal #RussiaChinaIran #NuclearTalks #SnapbackSanctions #IAEA #IranUS #Trump #Putin #XiJinping #Khamenei #Araghchi #TehranDiplomacy #IranNuclearCrisis #Geopolitics #BreakingNews #IranSanctions #ChinaIranAlliance #RussiaIran #NuclearStandoff #USIranTensions #DiplomaticCrisis #JCPOA #NoTalksWithUS #IranEnergyProgram #TehranStatement #IranEU #IstanbulTalks #WesternPressure #MiddleEastNews #UNSecurityCouncil #TrumpThreat #IranRejectsIAEA ~ED.194~HT.408~
