Israeli intelligence

Two recently retired senior Israeli intelligence agents shared new details about a deadly clandestine operation years in the making that targeted Hezbollah militants in Lebanon and Syria using exploding pagers and walkie talkies three months ago.

Israeli airstrikes hit three branches of a financial institution linked to Hezbollah in Beirut on Sunday night, one of which was located near the international airport of Lebanon’s capital.

The leader of Hamas Yahya Sinwar is dead, according to the Israeli army.

Tensions between Iran and Israel have escalated dangerously in recent weeks, culminating of course in Tehran’s recent attack on Tel Aviv with 200 ballistic missiles.

The situation in the Middle East remains highly volatile and appears increasingly grim. In Western capitals, there is significant concern about a potential escalation of Israel’s conflict with the terrorist organizations Hamas in Gaza and Hezbollah in Lebanon. Iranian involvement cannot be dismissed either.

An Israeli ground invasion of Lebanon could trigger ‘apocalyptic’ scenes and lead to all-out war, warns a high-ranking diplomat from Lebanon, explaining that the Israel Defense Forces would face troops trained by the British.

The case involving the mass explosions of pagers in Lebanon, which resulted in the death of 12 people, including two children, and injured nearly 3,000, resembles a spy thriller.

The Istanbul police have apprehended Liridon Rexhepi, a Kosovar national identified as orchestrating Mossad's financial network within Türkiye, marking the latest phase in a series of operations against the Israeli spy network.

The US Central Command announced that Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin has ordered the aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln to expedite its deployment to the Middle East, reflecting growing concerns over a potential regional conflict amidst the ongoing Israel-Hamas war in the Gaza Strip, the Pentagon reported on Sunday.

The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) have announced that they have eliminated Mohammed Deif, the military leader of Hamas, in an airstrike.

The Israeli military targeted the compound where Deif was hiding, and other terrorists were killed in the attack, according to the announcement.
