In a dramatic escalation of hostilities, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) confirmed the death of Ibrahim Qubaisi, the commander of Hezbollahâs rocket and missile division, in a targeted airstrike in Beirut's Dahiyeh suburb.
This strike, aimed at crippling Hezbollah's military leadership, marks a significant blow to the militant group's operational capabilities.
The IDF reported that Qubaisi was killed alongside several senior officers during the raid, highlighting his pivotal role in coordinating missile attacks against Israel over the years.
Having joined Hezbollah in the 1980s, Qubaisi was a key figure in various missile units, including precision-guided missile operations.
His elimination follows a series of Israeli strikes against Hezbollah leaders, intensifying tensions in the region and prompting outrage from Hezbollah, which vows to respond to this targeted action.
As the conflict escalates, the implications of this strike reverberate through the security dynamics of both Lebanon and Israel.
Yemenâs Ansarullah leader Abdul-Malik al-Houthi has accused Israel of committing atrocities in Gaza and the occupied West Bank as part of a wider âGreater Israelâ expansion plan. In a fiery televised speech from Sanaâa, he claimed Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahuâs vision is rooted in distorted religious ideology aimed at dominating the Muslim world. Al-Houthi cited the 1969 Al-Aqsa Mosque arson attack, warning that Israel seeks to destroy the holy site and replace it with a third Jewish temple. He also condemned Egyptâs gas deal with Israel and criticized Arab regimes for supporting the disarmament of Hamas and Hezbollah. Branding Zionism a threat to global society, the Ansarullah leader urged Muslim nations to resist what he described as the âcrime of the centuryâ against Palestinians. He reaffirmed Yemenâs military operations in solidarity with Gaza, vowing that ships violating the Red Sea embargo will be targeted.

A new video shows an Israeli drone crossing into Lebanon near Haddatha village, signaling potential further strikes on Hezbollah targets. Israel has carried out multiple drone operations, targeting alleged operatives and rocket sites, while critics accuse it of endangering civilians. The campaign aims to enforce the November 2024 ceasefire, demilitarize Hezbollah, and weaken Iranâs regional influence. Diplomatic pressure from the U.S. and France is ongoing, but Hezbollah continues to resist disarmament. Netanyahuâs operations are escalating tensions, destabilizing local governance, and drawing international scrutiny.

The Middle East spirals into deeper chaos as Hamas vows revenge after Israeli airstrikes killed 10 people in Yemenâs capital, Sanaâa. The strikes followed Houthi missile attacks on Tel Aviv, intensifying Israelâs two-front war. Hamas denounced Netanyahuâs âfascist aggressionâ and urged Arab unity, while Islamic Jihad signaled readiness to join the fight. Analysts warn that a Hamas-Houthi-Islamic Jihad coalition, backed by Iran, could overstretch the IDF. With Netanyahu rejecting peace deals and Iran pushing for revenge, fears of World War 3 escalation grow.

A dramatic twist in the Gaza war has rocked Israelâs military establishment. Reports claim Hamas fighters have captured and destroyed hundreds of Israelâs vaunted Merkava tanks, delivering a stunning blow to the backbone of the IDFâs ground forces. In response, Israelâs Defense Ministry has rushed to approve a massive $1.5 billion program to accelerate production of Merkava tanks, Namer armored personnel carriers, and Eitan APCs to replenish battlefield losses. Verified footage shows Hamas deploying RPGs, anti-tank missiles, and tunnel ambushes that turned the Gaza battlefield into a graveyard of armor. For Hamas, destroying a Merkava is seen as a symbolic and strategic victory, undermining the image of Israeli military superiority. The scale of losses has raised serious questions about Israelâs readiness, sparking urgent debate on the future of ground warfare. Watch how this battle is reshaping the entire conflict.

Tensions deepen as Hamas accuses Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu of rejecting multiple ceasefire dealsâdespite IDF Chief Eyal Zamir urging him to accept a hostage agreement. Hamas official Bassem Naim claims Israel wants only a U.S.-backed âcomprehensive deal,â while admitting just 20 hostages remain alive. Reports suggest Netanyahu is stalling to preserve his far-right coalition, escalating war instead of ending it. Meanwhile, Israel has launched fresh assaults on Gaza City, prompting U.N. warnings of mass starvation and devastation.

Six Lebanese soldiers were killed on Saturday in a powerful explosion at a Hezbollah weapons depot in Wadi Zibqin, near the Israeli border. The Lebanese army said troops were dismantling munitions from the Iran-backed groupâs facility when the blast occurred. The tragedy comes just days after Beirut announced a plan to disarm Hezbollah by yearâs end under heavy U.S. pressure, a move strongly opposed by both Hezbollah and Iran.
UN peacekeepers recently uncovered fortified tunnels and large weapons caches in the same area. The incident underscores the volatile climate in southern Lebanon despite last yearâs ceasefire with Israel, which mandated that only Lebanese state forces hold arms. Israeli strikes on Hezbollah targets have continued, further inflaming tensions. Investigations are underway into the cause of the deadly blast as leaders mourn the fallen soldiers.

Horns blared, flags waved, and convoys snaked through Beirut and beyond, protesting the governmentâs US-backed plan to Strip the group of its weapons. The demonstration â dominated by Iran-aligned loyalists â sent a defiant message that Hezbollah will not yield its arms, which it calls vital for defending Lebanon against Israel.

Israeli media report plans to call up 80,000â100,000 IDF reserve troops for a potential occupation of Gaza City under PM Netanyahuâs strategy to dismantle Hamas. The operation, approved in principle by IDF Chief of Staff Herzi Halevi, could last until late 2026. Hamas vows fierce resistance, condemning Netanyahuâs âGreater Israelâ remarks as dangerous delusion. With Israel already engaged on multiple fronts, including Lebanon and Yemen, tensions are soaring. Hamas claims recent strikes on an Israeli Merkava 4 tank and D9 bulldozer.

Iran has issued a fierce denunciation of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahuâs recent remarks promoting the so-called âGreater Israelâ project, branding it a âdiabolical ideaâ rooted in fascist intent. Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei accused Netanyahu of openly declaring his regimeâs ambition to seize territory from Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, and Syria in a blatant violation of the UN Charter and international law.
Baghaei condemned the plan as a direct assault on regional sovereignty, warning it would impose occupation over Muslim nations and expand ongoing atrocities in Palestine. The spokesman also urged the UN, the Organization of Islamic Cooperation, and all world governments to condemn the scheme. Drawing attention to the worsening humanitarian disaster in Gaza, he called for urgent Arab and Muslim unity to deliver aid, end the genocide, and hold Israeli leaders fully accountable for war crimes and systemic violations.
