❗️Ansarallah reportedly signaling readiness to join war against Israel, vows Hezbollah will not stand alone
According to sources close to Yemen’s Ansarallah movement cited by Mehr News Agency, political, military, and operational coordination between Ansarallah, the Lebanese resistance, and other Axis of Resistance groups has never stopped.
The sources said any new escalation by Israel would be met with a unified response from the Axis of Resistance, stressing that Sanaa will not allow Lebanon to be left exposed to Israeli attacks and will not allow Hezbollah to stand alone on the battlefield.
They also said there is widespread public readiness and enthusiasm in Yemen to join the fight alongside the Lebanese resistance, with Yemeni fighters reportedly eager to take part in any future confrontation.

It seems all the fronts are mobilizing.
They have said this thoughout the war though, this and threats to the read sea - at most we have gotten a few rockets here and there but nothing substantial. Not that I blame them in the slightest, they are a warrior people but they also need time to build civilly and militarily before they join battle again.
What I think is most interesting are the reports of Hamas having started building fiberoptic drones. If they can learn from Hezbollah, there could be a more asymmetry on the Palestinian front. So when shit breaks loose, hopefully it will be too ouch for the Zionists, but we’ll see.
I think this is more credible considering the evacuation warning and complete cease of negotiations.
What I think is most interesting are the reports of Hamas having started building fiberoptic drones.
I’m going to be honest, I’m skeptical of that claim. I’ve only yet seen it from Israeli military sources, which isn’t reliable. Not to say that Hamas is completely incapable of finding methods to produce them (their resilience and adaptability is unmatched) but I’m still a bit squeamish about declaring it as fact considering the source of information. It sounds to me more like the Zionist project promoting fear in the settlers to further license it’s continued aggression against Palestine.
It could very well be true, and the resistance is being strategic by not stating it, and I hope that is the case. Though if you have a non-zionist source on the claim, please provide it, I would much appreciate it!
I’m skeptical of that claim.
Yeah I’m with you there. The israeli blockade of Gaza is crazy right now. There is next to no chance of a drone offensive coming out of Gaza.
❗️Handala claims responsibility for Tel Aviv car bombing, says senior Mossad influence warfare official was targeted
Hacktivist group Handala claimed responsibility for a car bombing in Tel Aviv on 4 June, alleging that the operation eliminated “one of the senior managers of Mossad’s New Influence Unit (Iran Desk)” after “months of surveillance, pursuit operations, and close monitoring.”
In a statement, the group said the official was killed when “a bomb planted in his personal vehicle exploded” on Highway 20 (Ayalon Highway).
Handala described the attack as a response to Israeli operations against Iran, adding: “This is the fate of criminals. Even the regime’s most security-protected individuals are not safe in their usurped homes.”
The group also challenged Israeli authorities, asking: “Will the security services of the Zionist regime dare to tell the truth, or will they continue to deny it?”
Israeli authorities have not confirmed the claim. Meanwhile, Israeli media reports have presented conflicting accounts regarding the identity of the victim. Initial reports said a man had been killed in the explosion, while later reports cited by Israeli outlets, including The Times of Israel, said investigators were examining the possibility that the victim was actually a woman.
Israeli police said the incident remains under investigation and described the suspected background as “criminal.”
Handala’s allegations regarding the victim’s identity and affiliation have not been independently verified.

—❗️🇺🇸/🇮🇷/🇱🇧 Iran’s IRGC-affiliated Tasnim News Agency:
‘Given the continuation of the crimes of the Zionist entity in Lebanon and considering that Lebanon was part of the preconditions for the ceasefire, and that this ceasefire has been violated on all fronts, the Iranian negotiating team will suspend talks and the exchange of texts through intermediaries.
Iran emphasizes the following:
-
The neccesity of an immediate cessation of attacks by the Zionist regime in Gaza and Lebanon.
-
The necessity of a complete Israeli withdrawal from the occupied areas in Lebanon.
-
Until Iran’s view in this regard is met, there will be no further talks.
-
The Resistance Axis and Iran, together, have jointly determined to completely block the Strait of Hormuz and activate other fronts including the Bab Al-Mandeb Strait, in order to punish the Zionists and their allies.

@Middle_East_Spectator
The Iranian diplomatic patience has run out, at last 👀 I wonder if the Israeli armed forces will be stupid enough to ignore the Iranian warnings.
It’s not about stupidity, the Zionist project can not exist without endless war and advance. Ignoring the threat is fundamentally against Israel at its foundation. Their only rational option (in the context of zionism), which happens to be the stupidest option, is to double down.
You’re right. In that case, I guess I’ll be here appreciating the fireworks sent by the IRGC.
I dunno if its their patience that has run out or if they have done everything they needed to in preparation for the next bout.
More likely, yes 🙏 it’s more of a “proverbial” patience than a literal one

❗️Jewish settlers, under the protection of Israeli occupation forces, have set large fires across agricultural lands in the village of Madama, south of Nablus in the occupied West Bank.
According to local reports, the settlers are burning dozens of dunams of farmland, fruit trees, and a civilian vehicle, while Israeli troops reportedly fired live ammunition at residents attempting to repel the attack, detained dozens of young men, confiscated Red Crescent volunteers’ equipment, and prevented civil defense crews from extinguishing the blaze as the fires continued to spread.

Every time I post one of these my blood boils more. There are few if any “innocent” in the settler colony. The zionists are not to be mourned.
To hell with the genocidal state.
Every last settler bastard deserves a noose around their necks. They deserve no peace, quarter, or right to exist.

Immediate evacuation order From the IRGC to the Residents of the settlements in northern occupied Palestine are informed that the area marked on the attached map, including Upper Galilee, Lower Galilee, the Golan Heights, and Haifa, is now designated as a closed military zone. In the event that your criminal leaders attack the southern Dahieh of Beirut or the city of Beirut, this area will become a target of the Iranian armed forces.
And to the honorable Palestinian people, we say: it is time to reclaim your land. Our fire is at your service. The evacuation of settlers from the occupied territories may be a preliminary step for your return to it.

🇮🇷🇺🇸🇰🇼| Iranian military correspondent for Tasnim:
Didn’t we attack the US bases during the night? Why’s the footage from the attack on Kuwait’s airport during day time?
Which is a very valid point. The launch footages Iran released clearly shows it’s during night time.
@FotrosResistancee
https://t.me/FotrosResistancee/21852?single
The angle on the shadows in the day light pics are pretty shallow which could indicate it was morning. The launch pictures could have been just pre-dawn. Factoring in transit time I don’t think that proves anything.
That said I still think that was a Lukas. Even if it was an Iranian drone, who cares? If Iran wanted to target civilians they could have killed thousands by now.

The number of injuries among the army since the start of the battle in southern Lebanon has risen to 1,243, including 72 in serious condition and 140 in moderate condition.

❗️Hezbollah kills invading Israeli officer with anti-tank missile in south Lebanon
The Israeli army announced that Captain Eitan Shmuel Lemberg, 21, of the 75th Battalion of the 7th Armored Brigade, was killed on 4 June after a Lebanese resistance fighter fired an anti-tank guided missile at an Israeli tank operating north of the Litani River in south Lebanon.
According to the Israeli military, the attack took place at around 16:00, striking the tank and killing Lemberg.
The incident comes amid ongoing clashes between Hezbollah and invading Israeli forces in southern Lebanon.

Yedioth Ahronoth indicated that the concerns have been confirmed, and the “Israeli” army is worried about the use of explosive loitering gliders at night.
The Hebrew newspaper added that one of the Givati Reconnaissance fighters who came to visit those wounded in the drone incident that struck the force heading toward Al-Shaqif Castle said: “It is very strange that a drone was able to strike a military force at night. This has never happened before to combat units.”
Yedioth Ahronoth cited “Israeli” security sources as saying, “There is a constantly rising learning curve, and not only in the field of drones. They improve the accuracy of their fire every time anew. Therefore, we try to move as much as possible within the security zone along the Yellow Line, and during maneuvers we avoid remaining in fixed positions.”
“The Israeli army and Hezbollah are engaged in what security sources describe as a ‘learning battle’. According to these sources, Hezbollah studies the army’s methods and improves from time to time.”
The paper pointed out that Israeli soldiers continue arriving at Rambam Hospital in Haifa to visit their wounded comrades, adding that they describe the atmosphere as difficult and frustrating.
Yedioth Ahronoth interviewed a soldier who came to check on his friend wounded by a suicide drone.
“Fifteen killed during what is called a ‘ceasefire,’ while there is no ceasefire at all. Perhaps Hezbollah’s drones now have new thermal cameras, and they can actually see our forces while they are moving,” he said.
Fighters also continue entering treatment rooms to support the families of the wounded, according to the Zionist paper.

The Lebanese government is so stupendously cucked it’s almost funny. Unfortunately, their naked treachery only results in Lebanon being unable to mount an effective national resistance and effectively decolonize itself.
I think we are seriously approaching a point where Hezbollah and non-puppst elements of the Lebanese military will have no choice but to stage coup. Unfortunately, as long as it’s dirty Shi’ites being butchered, a large part of Lebanon will look the other way.
I’m not sure who is more feckless and utterly diabolical in their servitude to zionists, the Palestinian Authority, or the Lebanese government. It’s frankly a close race between Aoun and Abass.
How can Lebanon reach a cease fire when the Lebanese army isn’t fighting back? They already have a ceasefire that israel didn’t comply with.
So basically, the empire and its dogs brokered an agreement with other dogs of empire and are pretending this is a legitimate deal. Meanwhile, the resistance is still going to resist because a whole people are being MASS MURDERED by the empire.
I heard some folks referring to them as the Lebanese Authority as a reflection of how captured they are by Israel.
— 🇮🇱/🇱🇧/🇮🇷 NOTE: Hezbollah has said many times that it does not recognize Israeli-Lebanese ceasefire talks and won’t abide by them
It is very likely that Hezbollah will simply keep fighting until there is an unconditional Lebanese ceasefire as part of the Iran-U.S. negotiations.
@Middle_East_Spectato
The Lebanese government, under the directive of its masters, is trying to create the legal and societal excuses to start a civil war with Hezbollah.
They’ve been trying to do this for the last year, but it’s a fools errand in my perspective. The Lebanese military has strongly discouraged rhe disarming of Hezbollah during the faux ceasire due to the conflict with Israel before. Why would they change their minds now when there’s an active invasion and ethnic cleansing occurring?
The Lebanese military, at least a large portion of it, is not going to mobilize against Hezbollah. Whether due to pragmatism, sympathy, or the fact that they have no chance if winning, I find it highly unlikely the Military follows the government’s plan.
I mean, the Lebanese Army has been pathetic against Israel and the IDF. How the fuck does anyone think they’d be capable against Hezbollah of all forces, one of the most effective militant organizations in the world? It’s suicidal, and I just don’t think the Lebanese military has the stomach for it, I’d sooner expect them to coup the government instead, and subdue any remaining loyalists with the aid of Hezbollah.
Though, frankly I think it’s more likely that they just do nothing. Stoking a civil war is only going to further delegitimize the comprodor Lebanese government. I don’t think there’s enough phalangists to try and create a civil war.
