Israel’s war on Gaza has destroyed much of the enclaves housing and infrastructure, with UNRWA warning there are no safe areas in the enclave.
Israel’s evacuation orders of Bureij and Nuseirat in central Gaza have sent tens of thousands of Palestinian residents fleeing to safe areas of the enclave.
Affirming the right of the Palestinian people to resist Israeli occupation, representatives of 14 Palestinian factions have signed an agreement to end their divisions and form a temporary government of national unity
The Popular Resistance Committees (PRC) is a loose coalition of armed Palestinian terrorist organizations in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank that oppose Israel’s right to exist and the leadership of the Palestinian Authority. Since its founding in 2000, the PRC has carried out numerous attacks against Israelis and Americans with support from the Islamic Republic of Iran. Members of the PRC joined Hamas in attacking from Gaza into southern Israel on October 7, 2023. Despite its track record, the PRC is currently not a U.S.-designated foreign terrorist organization.
The Tulkarm and Tubas governorates in the northern West Bank have lately become hotspots of terrorist activity against Israel, a situation that undermines the control of the Palestinian Authority (PA) in those areas, as has already happened in the governorates of Jenin and Nablus. This process – in which militias comprising fighters from multiple Palestinian organizations, including Hamas, the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ), and Fatah’s Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, gain strength and engage in escalating terror against Israel while undermining the security control of the PA on the ground – began before the outbreak of the Gaza war. But since then it has steadily increased, and in the recent months Hamas and other organizations have even been threatening to carry out attacks in the West Bank similar to Hamas’ October 7, 2023 attack in southern Israel.[1]
The “Beijing Declaration”, signed by 14 Palestinian factions, represents a significant step forward in negotiations between the groups, although it didn’t detail how to actually achieve Palestinian unification.
Leaders of Hamas, Fatah and other Palestinian factions have agreed, after three days of talks in Beijing, to form a national unity government at an unspecified point in the future, the Guardian newspaper reports.
The Mounting Pressure to Fight Hezbollah in Lebanon—and Why That Is So Dangerous
More than nine months into its war with Hamas in the Gaza Strip, Israel now appears closer than ever to a second, even larger war with Hezbollah on its northern border. In June, the Israel Defense Forces announced that plans for a full-scale attack in southern Lebanon had been approved. And in mid-July, Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah said that the Iranian-backed Shiite group was prepared to broaden its rocket attacks to a wider range of Israeli towns.
Une délégation turque dirigée par le ministre des Affaires étrangères Hakan Fidan a visité le Niger. Selon des sources officieuses, Ankara s’intéresse à l’accès aux gisements d’uranium, dont le géant nucléaire français Orano pourrait bientôt perdre totalement le droit d’exploitation.
ISIS carried out at least 69 confirmed attacks in March in the Aleppo, Homs, Hama, Raqqa, and Deir Ez Zor governorates. These attacks killed at least 84 pro-Assad regime soldiers and 44 civilians and wounded at least 51 more soldiers and civilians. There were also 19 high quality* attacks during the month. March was, by every metric, the most violent month of ISIS’s Badia insurgency since late 2017, when the group first lost control of its territory in central Syria. The number of attacks conducted in March exceeded the previous high point in January 2021, when ISIS cells were battling against significant regime operations across much of the desert. This month’s activities also far outpaced those of last year’s truffle season, when ISIS cells killed at least 115 people in April. However, most of the attacks that month —as well as the two preceding high-intensity months—were against civilians.
In October 2018, Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, delivered a speech at Tehran’s Azadi Stadium in front of 80,000 members of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) to promote the patriotic political program “Islam First.” He urged his fellow countrymen to take pride in Iran’s prestige in the region and the world, and its invincibility.
Zachary Foster énumère et décrit les 8 catégories, ou niveaux juridiques, qui segmentent la population en Palestine occupée, c’est-à-dire ce qui correspond à ce qu’on appelle l’État sioniste et à ce qu’on appelle les territoires occupés (Gaza et Cisjordanie)
Ces niveaux correspondent à des types de populations différents (juifs et non juifs) et à des localisations géographiques différentes. Cette dernière dimension est particulièrement importante en Cisjordanie marquée par une division en quatre zones : Jérusalem-Est, zones A, B et C.
