Israel intensifies strikes on Gaza despite calls for restraint from UN and US – BBC News

Published

on



The Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has told militants in the Gaza Strip they will “pay a very heavy price” after another day of escalating violence between Israel and the Palestinians.

Despite appeals for restraint from the UN and the United States, an Israeli air strike destroyed an apartment block in Gaza City after residents were warned to leave.

Hamas and Islamic Jihad in Gaza responded by firing a large number of rockets towards the Israeli city of Tel Aviv and its suburbs. A woman was killed in the attacks.

The latest round of violence began around the Al-Aqsa mosque in east Jerusalem which is sacred for both Muslims and Jews.

During Ramadan there have been clashes there between Palestinian protesters and Israeli security forces who imposed tight restrictions on the site.

Tensions in east Jerusalem, which has been occupied by Israel since 1967, are also running high over plans to evict dozens of Palestinians from a neighbourhood claimed by Jewish settlers.

Sophie Raworth presents BBC News at Ten reporting by middle east correspondent Tom Bateman.

    Israel is not fighting the citizens of Gaza.

    Surah Al Baqara 114
    And who are more unjust than those who prevent the name of Allah from being mentioned in his mosques and strive toward their destruction. It is not for them to enter except in fear. For them in this world is disgrace, and they will have in the Hereafter a great punishment

    I wasn’t that long ago when American corporations used – children – to do the work that adults could not… nothing changed in the Muslim world as the “children” they use as political props are actually used to dig those terrorist tunnels… do our Democrat Party Mefia Apparatchiks report this? Nope. They hide it as they show children injured by the result war that they encourage and finance with our taxes dollars…

    ISRAEL HAS EVERY RIGHT TO PROTECT ITSELF, HAMAS IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE DEATHS OF MANY PALESTINIANS. WHY USE THEM AS HUMAN SHIELDS?

    IF IT WASN'T FOR THE IRON DOME, HOW MANY ISRAELITES WOULD'VE BEEN KILLED AS A RESULT OF THIS RUTHLESS MISSILES COMING FROM PALESTINE?

    AGAIN, WHO FIRED THE FIRST MISSLE BETWEEN THE TWO? You know the truth. If someone dared to kill your family, would you smile and leave the person roam around with the threat of doing it over and over again? I don't think so.

    Israel is not fighting Palestine it fighting a terrorist organization name Hamas This is the problem with the narrative of the news because you don’t know the full story Hamas has attacked Israel with rocket and suicide bombing for the last 20 years we cannot take it anymore for the sake of the life of the civilians and no other country in the world Would do differently and if you think so think about your country is being attacked by missiles and rocket for over two decades by your neighboring countries and you do nothing about it and the world will criticize you for protecting your civilian's

    Zionisam is migration movement of Talmud people to 1 state. Zionists invented idea of 1st world war and 2nd world war. Ask yourself who was truly winner in 1st world war and 2nd world war? Rockefeller and his Zionist group sacrificed millions of Jews who follow Torah to gain state of Israel. Rockefeller famously said " if you wanna achieve success you need to be crystal clear what you want and be willing to pay the price."

    It's not a matter of religion or Jews against Muslims or Arabs, it's this:
    The bullies of this world – Western countries that are members of NATO and Israel – have one aim: military dominance in EVERY part of the world.
    When such bullies eye-ball a territory, be it of Muslim, Christian, Buddhist or any other religion, there are 3 ways in which bullies act:
    1. people are cooperative: bullies then support them in every way, financially, just to have military access and that of their corporations
    2. people are resistant: bullies use all possible propaganda against them and bomb the f*ck out of them into submission, they don't always succeed
    3. people are resistant but have 1 or several powerful countries covering their back: bullies tread carefully and use softer propaganda tactics
    (Russia and China ambitions are restricted to economic dominance and a few disputed territories that are bordering their countries).

US hits ‘dozens’ of Iranian sites in strikes, as Iran targets US bases in region | BBC News

Published

on



The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.

The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.

“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.

In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

Trump demands 20% toll on cargos passing through strait of Hormuz | BBC News

Published

on



President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.

He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.

Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.

Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.

The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.
