Israel at War

Terror chief admits 'unprecedented blow' to Hezbollah, claims 4,000 devices detonated simultaneously in alleged Israeli operation, while vowing retaliation.

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) immediately responded with artillery fire into Lebanon. Reports of additional ATGM impacts in the Galilee Panhandle.

According to reports, devices also include Walkie-Talkie style radios and other communication gadgets. Some explosions took place during the funeral of the son of Hezbollah parliament member Ali Ammar, who was killed during the massive pager explosions that took place in Lebanon on Tuesday.

The report indicates that Israel had initially planned to use the weaponized pagers only during a full-scale conflict. But Hezbollah operatives apparently compromised the operation when they saw something was off, forcing Israel to act quickly.

The resolution includes a six-month timeline for withdrawal from "Palestinian territories"; Israeli ambassador Danny Danon: "This is a shameful decision that backs the Palestinian Authority’s diplomatic terrorism."

Sgt. Agam Naim, a 20-year-old paramedic from Kibbutz Mishmarot, became the first female soldier to fall in combat in Gaza since Israel launched its ground campaign following Oct. 7.

The New Tolerance Campaign says the initiative is designed to be a "wake-up call" to groups like "Queers for Palestine" that have emerged since the Oct. 7 Hamas attack on Israel.

The incident took place in the Rafah area in the southern part of the strip. The names of the KIAs, are as followed: First Major Dotan Shimon, from Elazar; First Major Agam Naim, from Mishmarot; First Major Amit Bakri from Yoshvia; and Captain Daniel Mimon Toaff, from Moreshet.

More than 200 suffer severe injuries as communication pagers unexpectedly detonate in Hezbollah operatives' pockets. Hezbollah says this is "the biggest intelligence breach yet" as pagers were reportedly latest model and were only recently imported. Iran-backed terrorist group says, "We will respond from an unexpected place."

A high-ranking Israeli official characterizes the escalating tensions with Hezbollah as a situation "on the precipice of conflict."
