Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei denounced Israel’s “foolish” policy following recent attacks on Lebanon, which, according to the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), resulted in the death of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah.
Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has lambasted Israel’s recent attacks on Lebanon, asserting that Israel will ultimately regret its actions.
“The Zionist criminals should know that they are far too small to cause significant harm to the strong structure of Hezbollah in Lebanon. All the forces of resistance in the region stand alongside Hezbollah and support it. The fate of this region will be determined by the forces of resistance, with Hezbollah at the forefront,” Khamenei said in a statement.
“Lebanon will make the treacherous, disgraceful, and malevolent enemy regret their actions,” he added.
In the grand ballroom of existence, we twirl, Living, breathing, as time unfurls. Each heartbeat is a toe-tap of rhythm profound, In the dance of life, where love is resound.
Daylight arcs its first opening twirl, The sun dances forth, setting the world unfurl, Twilight pirouettes with the moon in its whirl, Electrifying the darkness, each star a pearl.
Life is a dance, a beautiful ballet, A waltz with trials, a tango with dismay. Pirouettes of joy, a jive so cheerful,Flamenco of dreams that keeps gloom at bay.
Hopping through happiness, skipping through strife, Leaping through love, each move rife. We sashay around sorrow, cut it with a knife, Glide through tomorrow in this dance of life.
NATO is mobilizing its resources and strategic plans in anticipation of a potential all-out war, as articulated by Lieutenant-General Alexander Sollfrank, head of NATOβs logistics command.
This urgent preparation underscores a grim reality: the specter of World War III is looming.
In these two and a half years of war in Ukraine, we see how US and NATO support for Kiev has breached one by one all the Russian so-called βred linesβ, up until we come to the frightening position that the West is about to greenlight attacks with its long-range missiles deep inside Russian territory, a move that can unleash unimaginable consequences.
Polandβs Interior Minister Tomasz Siemoniak announced that β¬1.5 billion would be allocated toward constructing shelters, establishing emergency communication systems, and creating a secure government infrastructure.
U.S. intelligence agencies have cautioned that Russia may respond with increased force, potentially including lethal attacks on the U.S. and its allies, if Ukraine is allowed to use long-range missiles supplied by the U.S., U.K., and France for strikes deep into Russian territory, the New York Times reported.
The president has suggested several new criteria that would merit a nuclear response
Russia should update its nuclear doctrine to clearly define circumstances that could prompt Moscow to launch a nuclear strike, President Vladimir Putin told a meeting of the national security council on Wednesday. He also suggested an expanded list of threats that would include βreliable informationβ of a major airstrike being launched against Russia.
The list of criteria that would justify Russia’s use of its nuclear deterrent should be expanded in the updated version of the doctrine, Putin told the meeting.
βAggression against Russia by any non-nuclear stateβ¦ supported by a nuclear power should be treated as their joint attack,β the president said.
New ZealandΒ branded a Chinese ballistic missile launch that terminated in the South Pacific βan unwelcome and concerning developmentβ Wednesday, as news of the rare test jolted the usually peaceful region.
Beijing said it had test-launched an intercontinental ballistic missile, firing it into the Pacific Ocean in its first such exercise in decades.
βWe remain in the process of gathering further informationβ a spokesperson for Foreign Minister Winston Peters told AFP, saying βNew Zealand views this as an unwelcome and concerning development.β
βPacific leaders have clearly articulated their expectation that we have a peaceful, stable, prosperous, and secure region,β the spokesperson said.
βAs part of the region, New Zealand strongly supports that expectation.β
The United States and China have been vying for influence across the South Pacific β opening embassies, inking agreements and doling out cash to Pacific island projects.
As we find ourselves in 2024, the tragic trend of young, healthy individuals dying unexpectedly continues.Β The question many are asking is: why is this happening?
The video touched on the untimely death of several influencers, including the creator of the popular channel βPretty Pastel Please.β At just 30 years old, she succumbed to lymphocytic myocarditis, a heart condition previously considered rare. This pattern of sudden deaths doesnβt stop there. Just a few weeks earlier, Farah El Khadi, a 36-year-old architect and influencer, died from cardiac arrest while on vacation. Similarly, viral TikTok influencer Dr. Tatiana Guluate, only 39, reportedly died from a brain aneurysm.
Tragically, Jessica Petway, another influencer, lost her life after a swift battle with cervical cancer, diagnosed merely a year ago. With these losses in mind, viewers are left pondering, βWhat is causing these sudden and severe health conditions in individuals who were once in their prime?β
This unsettling situation isnβt limited to social media personalities. It seems health crises, particularly heart conditions, are on the rise in the general population too, affecting those between 30 to 50 years old. A highlighted graph in the video noted an exponential rise in cancer rates since 2021, a trend dubbed by some experts as βturbo cancers.β
Speculation surrounds these occurrences, yet the media insists on labeling potential causes with seemingly dismissive reasons. Some outlets have attributed this rise in heart conditions to factors like climate change, sleep patterns, and misdiagnosis. Yet, skeptics view these explanations as inadequate and deflective.
The international NGO Crisis Group has cautioned that escalation in the past two weeks poses βgrave dangersβ.
βThe point may be approaching at which [Hezbollah] decides that only a massive response can stop Israel from carrying out more attacks that impair it further,β Crisis Group said in a report.
βWhile the group has been keen to avert an uncontrolled escalation, and to avoid looking like the party that turned the tit-for-tat into all-out war, it may decide that the line between what it suspects Israel is about to do and such a war is no longer meaningful.
βAbsent a stronger push for a Gaza ceasefire, Washington has few cards to play beyond leaning further on Israel to take a step back in the north.β
Satellite imagery has appeared to show a massive crater at a Russian missile test centre after aΒ nuclear-capableΒ RS-28 Sarmat exploded in a humiliating blow for PresidentΒ Vladimir Putin.
The weapon – known in the West as Satan-2 – is regarded by the Kremlin as a powerful tool within its arsenal. However, the latest incident is believed to be the fourth successive failure, calling its reliability into question.
Sharing Planet Lab pictures taking at Plesetsk cosmodrome in Arkhangelsk Oblast on social media, analyst MeNMyR commented: “As is readily apparent, the RS-28 Sarmat test was a complete failure.
“The missile detonated in the silo leaving a massive crater and destroying the test site. “The Sarmat is a liquid fuelled missile so this accident could have occurred separate from the actual launch activity.β
