The Israel-Gaza battles raging on TikTok and X – BBC News
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.

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.

Explosions have been heard near two Iranian port cities, Bandar Abbas and Bushehr, state media has reported.
It comes after another night of strikes between the US and Iran, with Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps saying it hit two UAE tankers in the Strait of Hormuz and targeted US facilities in Jordan and Bahrain.
The UAE called the attack “brazen”, adding that an Indian crew member was killed and eight others were injured.
Meanwhile, the US military says it completed strikes on targets aimed at degrading “Iran’s ability to attack commercial shipping” – Iranian state media reports three people were killed.

The US military said it was carrying out a new wave of strikes on targets in Iran. It said the aim of the attacks was to degrade Iran’s ability to attack shipping in the strait of Hormuz. It came ass the US Navy resumed its blockade of Iran’s ports.
Iran said that control of the strait of Hormuz was required for its national security and it will exercise sovereignty over the key shipping lane, whatever the cost.
President Trump announced that he was scrapping a plan he had announced a day earlier, for placing a 20% toll or tariff on all cargos passing through the strait of Hormuz.

I used to see TikTok as a threat. But I am glad there is a large social media to counter balance the misinformation spread by the western media. Instagram, Facebook, Twitter are all promoting Israel and its war crimes.

🙋♀️🇪🇦I firmly believe that there should never have been an invention called Israel without first signing a legitimate, millennial state of the Palestinians with its own identity when the UN decided to divide the territory of Palestine together with the UNITED KINGDOM, evicting Palestinian citizens from their homes and territories. to implement them by ultra-radical Zionists allied with the Nazis with the intention of transferring Nazism from Europe to the Middle East and the Near East and, out of solidarity, empathy and common sense, the leaders of Arab and Muslim countries should never have continued financing the UN so that they would continue to consent. the genocidal invasions exclusively against Arabs and Muslims from whom the USA, UK and the EU steal their natural resources to enrich themselves what, is exactly the same purpose of the invading Israeli terrorist Zionism to steal the gas and oil of the Eastern Mediterranean from the Gaza Strip , it can be said that the Arab and Muslim leaders are necessary accomplices of what is happening in Palestine because instead of abandoning the UN and not legitimizing the colonizing occupation of Israeli Zionism, they have allowed them to have embassies in their territories and maintain bilateral agreements, which is what the same as being with God and the devil at the same time.

New report from NYT of evidence Israel was aware of Hamas' attack plans lays credence to the perspective that Netanyahu and his cronies allowed the border to be left open for Hamas to commit these atrocities at the time of a Peace & Love Music Festival !
This has now allowed Netanyahu to remain in power indefinitely while war continues (probably for months and years) even though he would have been removed by now otherwise !!
In addition it gives Israeli armed forces justification with its allies for committing ethnic cleansing of Gaza !!!

International financial boycotts were the primary factors in the collapse of apartheid in South Africa.
The only way to end apartheid in Israel is to boycott them. And a one state solution is the answer……..

instagram and youtube is pushing me to pro Palestinian content even though I have no interest in it. Having been to palestine years ago I can tell you first hand most of the "innocent" people are complacent and often agree with hamas. although I do feel for innocent people having their lives crushed literally or metaphorically, people who have not been there simply do not understand the mindset of the palestinians, and they do not understand that hamas is isis. its disgusting to me that people try to frame israelis as committing war crimes, they deserve to defend themselves and in war, sometimes terrible distasteful things, like death of innocents, happen. Its awful but that's war. They are at war and as long as hamas hides behinds hospitals and schools, these terrible things are going to happen… until israel wipes them out completely. It's just the awful reality. It really annoys me that I'm being pushed towards all this political content, I dont want to see any of it, let alone the pro palestine stuff. it feels like I am being forced by these platforms.

"In 2000 a couple of “green” (naive) reserve soldiers (one a newcomer to Israel) tried to get to their post by driving through Ramallah, a Palestinian town. They were detained by police and taken to a police station for questioning. About 15 minutes later a mob of more than1000 people stormed the building, attacking the honorable Palestinian police officers, capturing the Israeli soldiers and proceeded to beat and stab the them.
After this, the crowd celebrated and cheered as one of the soldier's bodies was thrown out of the window and stamped and beaten by the frenzied crowd. One of the two was shot, set on fire and his had head beaten to a pulp.Soon after, the crowd dragged the two mutilated bodies to the city center and began an impromptu victory celebration." ……these were regular palestinian civilians, even children, don't be fooled by this country of terrorists or the young people who support them.

Gaza Genocide has exposed Europe and America who call themselves defenders of humanity and human rights in the world and teach the world the lesson of freedom. Who have forced Palestinians to live like prisoners in their own country for 70 years. Western countries say that the condition of Gaza is because of Hamas, but if the Zionists had not captured Palestine, Hamas would not have existed. Zionists, with the help of America, are occupying villages of Palestine and then demolishing the ancestral homes of Palestinians, calling them illegal. And for protesting, Palestinians are being branded as terrorists and put in jail. And the world has been watching all this silently for 70 years. Zionism has nothing to do with any religion. This is a mentality whose aim is only to dominate the world. Zionists have occupied Palestine in the name of Jews because if any atrocities are committed in the name of religion then no one opposes them. And Zionist people hold big positions in European and American countries. And for this reason, whoever the government is in America and Europe, it has to follow Zionist principles and do or not do something for its country. But it has to do something for Israel.
