The Maldives has officially banned the entry of Israeli nationals into the country starting Sunday, June 2, 2024.
The announcement was made by the Minister of Homeland Security and Technology, Ali Ihsaan, during a news conference at the President’s Office on Sunday afternoon.
Following a recommendation from the Cabinet, President Dr. Mohamed Muizzu resolved to impose a ban on Israeli passports.
The decision, which aims to express the Maldives' strong solidarity with Palestine, includes amending necessary laws to prevent Israeli passport holders from entering the Maldives and establishing a Cabinet subcommittee to oversee these efforts.
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 Iran’s 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 its most chilling warning yet, Iran has vowed a far more devastating retaliation against Israel if aggression continues. Major General Abdolrahim Mousavi declared that Iran held back during its June 24 counterattack and did not unleash its full military capabilities. The warning comes after Israel’s June 13 assassination strike on top Iranian military and nuclear figures, followed by U.S. airstrikes on Iranian nuclear sites. Speaking to Al-Mayadeen, Mousavi accused Israel and its allies of years-long plots against Iran and warned that any further provocation would be met with overwhelming force.

Senator Lindsey Graham is facing global backlash after sarcastically suggesting that Israel should bomb Greta Thunberg’s aid flotilla headed to Gaza. Graham posted “Hope Greta and her friends can swim!” linking to her mission report. Thunberg, joined by actor Liam Cunningham and other volunteers, is sailing from Italy to deliver humanitarian aid to the besieged Gaza Strip. The flotilla defies Israel’s naval blockade, weeks after a similar ship was reportedly hit by drones. Greta says silence amid genocide is more dangerous than direct action. Israel has yet to comment.
