Israel's Sky Dew Falls Flat: Hezbollah Drone's Dramatic Downing of Israel's Largest Spy Balloon
Hezbollah carried out its deepest strike in Israel by targeting the Israeli Air Force's Sky Dew base near Golani Junction, about 35 kilometres from the Lebanon border.
The Sky Dew, Israelâs largest spy balloon, acts as a detection radar for unmanned aircraft and missiles.
Two explosive-laden Hezbollah drones were launched in the attack, with one being downed by air defenses and the other successfully hitting the facility.
The extent of the damage to the balloon is still being assessed by the Israeli military.
This attack is seen as a retaliation for recent Israeli strikes on southern Lebanese villages and civilian homes.
Hezbollah has vowed to continue its operations as long as Israel's military campaign in Gaza persists.
In what may be its most lethal strike yet, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) have eliminated a senior Hezbollah commander in a high-precision attack captured in dramatic footage. The video shows the moment Israeli forces target and destroy the vehicle carrying the top militant, marking a significant blow to Hezbollah's operational leadership. The strike, part of ongoing cross-border escalations, underscores the rising intensity of the Israel-Lebanon conflict and signals a serious shift in Israelâs tactical approach.

Just hours after launching the massive "Operation Black Flag" airstrikes on Houthi targets in Yemen, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu departs for Washington to meet with President Donald Trump.
In his statement before leaving, Netanyahu reaffirmed his mission: to crush Hamas, confront Iran and Hezbollah, bring all hostages home, and ensure Gaza will never again threaten Israel. This marks his third meeting with Trump since the 2024 elections â a critical moment for U.S.-Israel coordination as regional tensions boil over.
With fire raining on the Red Sea and new alliances forming, Netanyahuâs visit could reshape the Middle East â militarily and diplomatically.

Hezbollah Deputy Chief Naim Qassem has firmly rejected any normalization deal with Israel, vowing continued resistance until full Israeli withdrawal and ceasefire conditions are met. Speaking on the final day of Ashura commemorations, Qassem said defending Lebanonâs sovereignty requires no foreign approval and warned against disarmament under U.S. pressure. While open to dialogue, he stressed that any peace must respect Lebanonâs dignity and resistance. The remarks come amid rising regional tensions and renewed calls for a security agreement.

Chilling new video captures the exact moment an Israeli drone strike destroyed a vehicle on a busy civilian road in Khaldeh, south of Beirut. The targeted attack, which took place amidst regular traffic, resulted in the death of one individual and left three others injured. The incident has sent shockwaves through the region and raised fears of a wider conflict.
The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) swiftly claimed responsibility for the strike. In a public statement, the IDF claimed it had successfully targeted and eliminated a militant affiliated with Iranâs Quds Force. According to Israeli military sources, the individual killed was deeply involved in smuggling weapons into the region and was actively planning terror attacks against both Israeli civilians and military forces. However, neither Israeli nor Lebanese officials have officially released the name or confirmed the identity of the person killed.
This strike is not an isolated event but the latest in a series of escalating Israeli military actions in Lebanon following the collapse of a ceasefire weeks ago. On July 2, another Israeli airstrike in a civilian zone in Nabatieh injured two people, including a child. Furthermore, Israeli troops recently conducted a raid in the Al-Adisa area, targeting Hezbollah fighters. This pattern of conflict was also seen on June 28, when an Israeli drone strike in Kounine killed three people, including senior Hezbollah leader Hassan Hammoudi. These continuous strikes are fueling a volatile situation on the Israel-Lebanon border.

In a scathing joint statement, 100 prominent Muslim scholars from over 25 countries declared Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu as âenemies waging war against God.â The scholars accused the two leaders of bloodshed, corruption, and crimes against humanity, condemning U.S.-Israeli policies on Palestine. The declaration brands Israel a âcancerous entityâ and forbids normalization. Citing attacks on Muslim groups and the Jerusalem embassy move, the statement calls for global Muslim unity and unwavering resistance until Palestine is fully liberated.

A harrowing attack in southern Gaza claimed the life of Master Sgt. Abraham Azulay, 25, an Israeli combat-engineering reservist, as Hamas gunmen attempted to abduct him during a tunnel ambush. Azulay was killed in the struggle, and militants tried to drag his body away before IDF forces intervened. In a related move, Israel's military has intensified its ground offensive in northern Gaza, deploying the Givati Brigade and 99th Division near Beit Hanoun, aiming to dismantle Hamas tunnels. IDF Chief Lt.âŻGen. Eyal Zamir said the operationâdubbed "Operation Gideonâs Chariots"âaims to set conditions favorable for a hostage swap. The violence has slowed ceasefire progress, even as Israeli PM Netanyahu left Washington without a breakthrough. Gaza's civil defense reports at least 22 more civilian deaths from Israeli strikes, worsening fuel shortages at Gaza Cityâs Al-Shifa Hospital. As both sides hold firm, international pressure for a truce grows louder.

On July 10, 2025, a missile launched from Yemen by Iran-backed Houthi rebels was intercepted by Israelâs air defense systems. Sirens blared across Jerusalem, central Israel, and parts of the West Bank as civilians rushed to shelters in panic. The IDF confirmed the interception and has since carried out retaliatory airstrikes on Houthi launch sites.
This strike is part of a growing wave of regional escalation, with missile threats now emerging from Gaza, Lebanon, and Yemen. Houthis claim the attack was in solidarity with Palestinians in Gaza, where over 57,000 have reportedly been killed since the Israeli military campaign began in late 2023. With tensions mounting, the region stands on the brink of a broader war.

In a move meant to demonstrate ânecessary flexibility,â Hamas has announced plans to release ten Israeli hostages to help accelerate stalled ceasefire negotiations with Israel. The militant group said the gesture is part of âintensive and responsible effortsâ to reach a comprehensive agreement. However, the core demands â including Israelâs withdrawal from Gaza, a permanent ceasefire, and the influx of humanitarian aid â remain under intense negotiation. Israel has so far rejected the terms. The announcement comes just days after Defense Minister Israel Katz revealed plans to relocate Gazaâs population to a so-called âhumanitarian cityâ built on Rafahâs ruins. Rights groups have condemned it as an internment plan. With around 50 hostages still in captivity and only half believed to be alive, pressure is mounting. Over 57,000 Palestinians have died in Israelâs military campaign since October 2023, raising global demands for a resolution and accountability.

In a dramatic escalation, the Israeli Air Force launched a precision night raid targeting the Houthi-controlled Galaxy Leader cargo ship â a vessel seized in 2023 and used as a propaganda symbol by Yemenâs 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 Israelâs 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 â 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.

At the 17th BRICS Summit in Rio, Turkey's Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan delivered a chilling warning: Israelâs unchecked aggression could spiral into global instability. Fidan accused Tel Aviv of reversing decades of development through its war in Gaza and said multilateral institutions are now facing a legitimacy crisis.
He called on the international community to act before itâs too late. His warning came amid growing BRICS concerns over AI weaponization, global peace, and economic fairness. Fidan alleged that Israel has used artificial intelligence as a tool of warfare, fueling unrest from Gaza to Yemen. With over 57,000 dead in Gaza and rising tensions across Lebanon, Syria, and Iran, BRICS leaders are urging urgent reforms. The summit, already focused on AI governance and peacekeeping, now confronts the fallout of Israelâs regional ambitions and the Westâs blind eye.
