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.

Thousands of Hezbollah supporters took to Lebanonâs streets in a massive show of force, unleashing a roaring sea of vehicles that stretched for miles. 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.

Massive explosions rocked western Syria overnight as the Israeli Air Force launched precision strikes on the Brigade 107 headquarters in Zama village, near the Golan Heights. The IDF confirmed it successfully targeted and eliminated senior Hezbollah commander Hossam Qasem Ghorab, who was directing cross-border rocket attacks on Israeli territory. Fireballs and plumes of smoke were seen for kilometers, as the strategic military site was reduced to rubble. With tensions escalating in the region, the Israeli military vows to prevent further terror infiltration from Syria and Lebanon.

A damning UN report has placed Israel and Russia âon noticeâ over credible allegations of sexu@l violence by their armed forces in conflict zones. UN Secretary-General AntĂłnio Guterres warned that both nations could be formally added to the blacklist of violators in next yearâs report if patterns persist. The findings cite abuses by Israeli security forces against Palestinian detainees, including forced nud!!ty and genital violence, while Russia faces similar scrutiny in Ukraine. In a historic first, Hamas has also been added to the list for sexu@l violence during the October 7 massacre and against hostages, following evidence from Project Dinah

In a chilling accusation, the Director of Al-Shifa Hospital claims that Israel is preparing a major massacre in Gaza and has begun by targeting journalists to silence the truth. Al Jazeera reporters Anas al-Sharif and Mohammed Qraiqea, along with three cameramen, were killed in a strike near the hospital. Al Jazeera has called it a "targeted assassination" and a direct attack on press freedom. The IDF claims the journalists were affiliated with Hamas but has provided no credible evidence. With international outrage growing and journalists under fire, is this the beginning of a blackout before a bloodbath?

Yemenâs Houthi Armed Forces claim responsibility for four major drone strikes targeting Israeli sites in Haifa, the Negev, Eilat, and Beersheba. Spokesman Yahya Saree says the attacks were carried out in solidarity with Palestinians in Gaza and warns that more operations will follow until the siege is lifted and Israeli aggression ends. Israeli military reports shooting down one drone near Eilat, but the fate of the other five remains unclear.

Nasser Al-Laham, the prominent head of Al Mayadeen TVâs Palestine bureau, has been arrested by Israeli forces following a violent pre-dawn raid on his home. According to reports by Al Mayadeen, Shin Bet officers stormed the house and destroyed belongings while searching for the studio from where Al-Laham appeared on-air.
The arrest comes amid increasing crackdowns on pro-resistance media voices in the occupied territories. Al-Laham was transferred to the notorious Ofer Court in the occupied West Bank, where his detention was extended until Thursday. The operation has triggered outrage among journalists, human rights groups, and regional media networks, who condemn the targeting of press freedom. Al Mayadeen, a Beirut-based channel often critical of Israel and aligned with the Resistance Axis, has described the arrest as an attempt to silence Palestinian voices. This development adds further tension to an already volatile West Bank, where media suppression is becoming increasingly common.
