In a decisive military operation, the Israeli Air Force conducted a drone strike near the Syrian-Lebanese border, resulting in the elimination of three Palestinian Islamic Jihad terrorists, including key operative Faris Qasim, and one Hezbollah terrorist.
This bold move by Israel sends a clear message to terror groups operating in the region.
In this video, we provide an in-depth analysis of the strike, its implications for regional security, and the potential fallout between Israel, Syria, and Lebanon.
Watch now to understand the full impact of this significant event in the Middle East conflict.
Hezbollah's relentless rocket and missile attacks have left Metulla, a key Israeli settlement near the Lebanese border, reeling. Over 60% of the settlement's buildings have been damaged, with more than 450 homes suffering structural damage of at least 60%. The attacks, which have continued for over a year, have devastated the settlement, transforming it into a closed military zone.
The scale of the destruction is staggering, with more than 7,000 vehicles destroyed, and the total damage exceeding 2 billion shekels (over $550 million). Metulla’s mayor, David Azoulay, described the situation as dire, emphasizing the uncertainty of the settlement’s future and the necessity of demolishing homes in severely impacted areas.

In a significant counterterrorism operation, the Syrian military, backed by Russian forces, has eliminated approximately 2,000 foreign-backed Takfiri jihadists in northern Syria over the past week. The strikes targeted key terrorist positions, gathering points, and supply routes, dealing a crushing blow to Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) fighters.
The campaign saw heavy clashes northwest of Hama, where the Syrian army expanded its security perimeter by 20 kilometers, killing 300 jihadists and destroying 25 drones. Missile strikes in Idlib inflicted further casualties, leaving hospitals overwhelmed with wounded fighters.

Iran’s Foreign Minister, Abbas Araghchi, has stated that Iran is prepared to deploy troops to Syria if the Syrian government formally requests assistance in combating a resurgence of terrorism. In an interview with New Arab, Araghchi emphasized the growing security threat posed by terrorist groups in northwestern Syria, which he warned could impact neighboring countries, such as Turkey and Iraq, more severely than Iran.
He also expressed concerns about the possible collapse of the Astana process, a diplomatic initiative aimed at resolving the Syrian conflict, which involves Russia, Turkey, and Iran. Araghchi criticized Turkey for failing to uphold its commitment to prevent militancy in Syria, given its historical support for certain opposition groups.

Israeli forces have launched a deadly retaliation in southern Lebanon, killing at least 11 people following a breach of the ceasefire by Hezbollah. The attack came after Hezbollah fired projectiles toward Israeli positions in a warning over what it called Israeli violations of the truce. Israel responded with airstrikes targeting Hezbollah fighters and infrastructure across Lebanon. This escalation tests the fragile ceasefire, which had aimed to end months of conflict. While the White House downplayed the significance of the strikes, the violence threatens to derail the truce and further destabilize the region.

Iraqi fighters, backed by Iran, have crossed into Syria to join forces with Syrian and Russian military units in a fight against Turkey-backed jihadist rebels. The deployment comes after the jihadists seized Aleppo, marking a significant blow to the Syrian government's control. These reinforcements, primarily from Iraq's Badr and Nujabaa groups, are expected to focus on defending key Shiite shrines and supporting Assad’s forces on the frontlines.
However, Lebanon's Hezbollah, a key ally of Syria and Iran, has decided to stay out of this latest conflict. Despite Hezbollah's earlier role in supporting Syrian forces, particularly in the fight against rebels, it is not ready to commit forces in the current escalation, reportedly due to the strain from its ongoing war with Israel.

In a dramatic escalation of hostilities, Hezbollah launched a series of missile strikes targeting key Israeli air bases and armoured vehicles in a deadly 24-hour blitz. The attacks hit the Ramat David and Tel Nof Air Bases, crucial hubs for the Israeli Air Force, marking a significant escalation in the ongoing conflict. Precision-guided rockets tore through the air bases, inflicting serious damage. In addition to the air base assaults, Hezbollah destroyed two Israeli armoured vehicles along the Lebanon-Israel border, including a bulldozer and an armoured personnel carrier, further intensifying the violence. This marks a sharp escalation in Hezbollah's military tactics, signalling a new phase of conflict as tensions between Israel and the militant group continue to rise.
