🚨 IDF eliminates Hamas commander behind October 7 kibbutz massacre
Israeli forces on Wednesday eliminated Bilal Abu Assi, a Hamas Nukhba platoon commander who led the deadly infiltration into Kibbutz Nir Oz on October 7—where dozens of civilians were murdered or abducted.
This targeted strike follows a blatant ceasefire violation in which terrorists opened fire on IDF forces in northern Gaza, critically wounding a reserve officer.
Abu Assi was also involved in holding hostages and directing attacks on IDF troops throughout the war.
🎯 The operation used precision intelligence and surveillance to minimize civilian harm. The IDF expressed regret over reports that uninvolved civilians may have been harmed, including a medical staff member.
Israel will continue to defend its forces and civilians—and pursue those responsible for October 7—even under ceasefire conditions.

Hamas is still using ambulances to wage war.
🎥 New IDF footage from Jabaliya shows Hamas terrorists moving weapons and fighters from a hospital to a school—*using ambulances.
This isn’t an exception. It’s a system.
🟥 Hamas continues to violate international law
🟥 Exploits hospitals, schools, and aid vehicles
🟥 Rebuilds its terror machine—even under ceasefire
👉 So long as Hamas exists, Trump’s Gaza plan has zero chance.
You cannot rebuild Gaza while Hamas is rebuilding terror.

Israeli forces eliminated Ali Raziana, Commander of Islamic Jihad’s Northern Gaza Brigade—a key figure behind hostage operations, coordinated attacks with Hamas, and the attempted reconstitution of terror forces under ceasefire cover.
Raziana built Islamic Jihad’s defense plans, deployed its operatives, and sat on its military council.
🛑 Ceasefire or not, Israel will not allow terror commanders to rebuild.

The French Embassy in Baghdad sits on stolen Jewish property.
For over 50 years, France has operated its embassy in a home taken from a Jewish family during Iraq’s antisemitic purge of the 1950s.
📜 The Lawee family fled Baghdad under duress.
🇫🇷 France initially paid rent to the family in exile—then redirected payments to Saddam’s regime.
🧑⚖️ Now, a French court says the family must seek justice in a Shi’ite court in Baghdad.
France claims to stand for human rights. But this embassy sits on theft—and silence.

🚨 Australia releases man who threatened Israeli president
An Australian court has granted bail to a 19‑year‑old Sydney man accused of threatening to kill Israeli President Isaac Herzog—just days before Herzog’s arrival in Australia.
🔹️ The suspect posted threats on social media, including a claim he would shoot the Israeli president.
🔹️ Despite prosecutors opposing bail due to the timing of the visit, the court cited the suspect’s lack of criminal history and access to weapons.
🔹️ Bail conditions include house confinement with parents and a ban on social media use.
The case raises serious questions about how threats against world leaders—especially Israeli officials—are treated in Western democracies.
