In a dramatic revelation, Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah has unveiled the strategic reasoning behind his group's delay in retaliating for the assassination of Fuad Shukr.
According to Nasrallah, the postponement was not merely a wait-and-see approach but a deliberate and bold tactic designed to keep Israel on edge.
He emphasised that the delay allowed Hezbollah to monitor the outcome of ongoing Gaza truce negotiations and assess the potential response from the "axis of Resistance," which includes Iran and its regional allies.
Nasrallah’s announcement sheds light on Hezbollah's strategic calculus, revealing that the timing of their response was intended to maximise psychological and tactical impact.
The delay was also a calculated move to punish Israel by keeping it in suspense for nearly a month, demonstrating Hezbollah's capacity for strategic patience and complex planning.

The UK has suspended free trade talks with Israel and summoned its ambassador amid growing outrage over military actions in Gaza and the West Bank. Foreign Secretary David Lammy condemned Israeli ministers’ extremist rhetoric and the humanitarian crisis, with sanctions targeting settlers and linked groups. The EU has launched a formal review of ties. As Israel accuses the West of bias, PM Keir Starmer calls Gaza’s civilian toll “intolerable,” with critics demanding a full arms embargo and recognition of Palestine.

In a devastating blow to the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF), Al-Qassam Brigades have claimed responsibility for the deadly explosion that killed an IDF soldier in southern Gaza. This marks the second IDF casualty in just two days, following the tragic death of Sgt. Yosef Yehuda Chirak from friendly fire in northern Gaza. The latest attack underscores the relentless offensive by Hamas, as the militant group continues to target Israeli forces with increasing intensity. With the conflict showing no signs of slowing down, the toll on the IDF grows, bringing the total number of Israeli soldiers killed since the war’s outbreak to 858.

U.S. intelligence suggests Israel may strike Iranian nuclear sites this year, despite President Trump’s ongoing diplomatic talks with Tehran. Military activity and intercepted messages indicate Israel is preparing for possible action as negotiations stall. Trump issued a 60-day ultimatum to Iran, keeping military options open. Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu faces pressure to block a weak deal without alienating Trump. With Iran’s defenses weakened and enrichment continuing, the risk of unilateral Israeli action grows, potentially disrupting U.S.-Iran diplomacy and escalating regional tensions.

Israel has eliminated a senior Hezbollah commander, just one day after Prime Minister Netanyahu vowed to target Houthi leader Abdul-Malik al-Houthi. The deadly operation is being seen as a chilling signal to Iran-backed factions across the region, especially Yemen’s Ansarallah (Houthis). The strike comes amid Israel’s ongoing confrontations with Hezbollah on its northern front and follows escalating rhetoric against Houthi leadership for their continued attacks in solidarity with Gaza. Is Al-Houthi next?

Israel launched powerful airstrikes on Houthi-controlled ports in Hodeidah and Al-Salif, Yemen, in retaliation for continued missile attacks toward Israeli territory. Defense Minister Israel Katz declared that Israel would hunt down and assassinate Houthi leader Abdul Malik al-Houthi, comparing the threat to past targeted killings of Hamas and Hezbollah leaders.

Trump delivered his strongest condemnation yet of Hezbollah, declaring that the Iran-backed group has been "crippled" following last year’s deadly conflict with Israel. Citing the loss of key Hezbollah leaders and the collapse of its vital arms pipeline due to the fall of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, Trump stated that Lebanon now faces a “once-in-a-generation opportunity” to break free from the militant group’s grip.

Israel has gone "beyond just self-defence" as an "intolerable" military offensive continues in Gaza, Environment Secretary Steve Reed has told Sky News. Sky News
Israeli right-wing figure Moshe Feiglin is under fire after declaring “every baby in Gaza is an enemy,” calling for full colonization of the region and the removal of all children to win the war. His remarks came as former IDF General Yair Golan accused Israel of committing atrocities and warned of becoming a global pariah. Golan's comments were denounced by PM Netanyahu as “blood libel.” The escalating rhetoric reflects a growing ideological divide in Israel as tensions over the Gaza war intensify.
