At least 40 civilians killed in El Daein by Sudanese warplanes
[SUDANTRIBUNE] At least 40 civilians were killed and more than 50 others were injured on Tuesday after Sudanese army warplanes bombed the vicinity of the 20th Infantry Division in East Darfur state.

The airstrikes occurred shortly after the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) announced their control of the military base, marking the fourth such takeover since the outbreak of conflict in mid-April.

The RSF, a paramilitary group led by General Abdel Rahim Dagalo ”Hemetti”, has now seized control of the 20th Infantry Division marking the fourth military base to fall under its control since the outbreak of conflict in the country in mid-April.

According to journalist Abu Bakr Al-Sandali from El-Daein, the civilian casualties resulted from Sudanese army airstrikes targeting the area around the 20th Infantry Division and the Al-Qubba neighbourhood, hours after the RSF assumed control of the military base.

Al-Sandali explained that the victims were civilians who had gathered to celebrate with RSF soldiers following their successful takeover of the military base.

He further added that calm had been restored to El-Daein after the RSF decided to open the markets, and took measures to prevent military vehicles and motorcycles from entering these areas.

DAGALO PLEDGES

In a speech delivered to a military gathering in front of the army headquarters, RSF Deputy Commander Abdel Rahim Dagalo affirmed the readiness of his forces to protect civilians in the cities of El-Daein, Nyala, Zalingei, and El Geneina.

Dagalo pledged to hand over power to the Sudanese people and establish a civilian government without the involvement of the Muslim Brotherhood. He also appealed to supporters of the banned National Congress Party (NSP) in East Darfur to refrain from inciting unrest.

“To the supporters of the National Congress Party in El-Daein, respect yourselves and be responsible citizens,” Dagalo stated. “We will not try you, but if you cross the line and instigate conflict, we will arrest you.”

Dagalo called on members of the armed forces who had fled El-Daein to return to their city and urged his forces to treat army prisoners and their families with respect and protect them within their homes.

#1  El Daein is located about 500 miles from Khartoum. It is the capital of the state of East Darfur, created in January 2012. The region was once known as a homeland to the Arab Rizayqat tribe. Over the centuries clashes with the Fur of eastern Darfur were common. That the RSF has taken control of Daein is significant insofar as it provides another indication that Arab Khartoum leadership is fast losing control over its eastern provinces.

Arabia
Yemen says rockets hit Israeli military targets
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.
[Regnum] The Ansar Allah rebel movement ruling in northern Yemen launched a rocket attack on the Israeli city of Eilat. Houthi military representative Yahya Saria announced this on November 22 on the Al Masirah TV channel .
In the real world, launching does not guarantee hitting. Especially when Allah clearly does not will it.
“The Yemeni Missile Forces fired a new salvo of cruise missiles at various military targets of the Israeli entity in the city of Umm Rishrar (Arabic name for Eilat) in the south of occupied Palestine,” a spokesman for the movement said.

As Regnum reported , on November 9, the Houthis shelled the city of Eilat in Israel. A Syrian drone fell on a school, the military said.
To be fair, in much of the Arab world schools are indeed military targets. Despite having an equally ancient civilization, Israel is civilized.
The Shiite movement Ansar Allah claimed responsibility for the attack. In response, the Israelis attacked Syrian territory.

The Houthis are ready to strike all Israeli civilian ships within the range of their weapons, representatives of the Ansar Allah movement warned. They called on all countries around the world to disembark their citizens crewing on Israeli-linked vessels, to suspend transportation on such vessels and to stay away from Yemen.
This generation’s version of the Oil Crisis, wherein the Muslim Middle East punishes anyone linked — however peripherally — to Israel, even if they have to invent one. Except this time it’s not all of them.

German police raid properties of Hamas supporters in Berlin, elsewhere
[NEWS5CLEVELAND] Hundreds of coppers searched the properties of Hamas
...the braying voice of Islamic Resistance®,...
members and followers in Germany on Thursday morning following a formal ban on any activity by or in support of the Death Eater group.

The German government implemented the ban on Nov. 2 and dissolved Samidoun, a group that was behind a celebration in Berlin of Hamas' Oct. 7 attack on Israel.

Germany's domestic intelligence service estimates that Hamas has around 450 members in the country. Their activities range from expressions of sympathy and propaganda activities to financing and fundraising activities to strengthen the organization abroad.

"We are continuing our consistent action against radical Islamists," German Interior Minister Nancy Faeser said. "By banning Hamas and Samidoun in Germany, we have sent a clear signal that we will not tolerate any glorification or support of Hamas' barbaric terror against Israel."

The raids, which mostly took place in Berlin, were meant to enforce the bans and to further investigate the groups, the German interior ministry said in a statement.

A total of 15 properties were searched in Berlin and the states of Lower Saxony, North Rhine-Westphalia and Schleswig-Holstein.

In Berlin alone, more than 300 coppers carried out searches at 11 locations in order to seize evidence and assets. Seven searches were related to Hamas and four to Samidoun. The searches mainly took place at the homes of supporters and the premises of a Paleostinian association, German news agency dpa reported.

Germany has been clamping down on groups supporting antisemitism in the wake of the latest Israel-Hamas war.

On Tuesday, police raided the homes of 17 people in the southern German state of Bavaria who were accused of spreading antisemitic hate speech and threats targeting Jews online. On Nov. 16, German police raided 54 locations across the country in an investigation of a Hamburg-based organization suspected of promoting the Iranian leadership's ideology and possibly supporting activities of Hezbollah in Germany.

"We are keeping a close eye on the Islamist scene," Faeser said. "Islamists and antisemites cannot and must not feel safe anywhere here." She said the members and supporters of Hamas in Germany are also committed to influencing the political and social discourse in the country.

Pro-Palestinian Protesters Disrupt Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, Glue Themselves to 6th Avenue
[BREITBART] A cadre of pro-Paleostinian activists disrupted the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade when they covered themselves in fake blood and glued themselves to the middle of 6th Avenue.

"Several protesters — wearing white jumpsuits with protest slogans and already splattered with red — interrupted the floats and balloons just before 11 a.m., forcing the parade to be halted," noted the New York Post.

"They walked 6th Avenue with large signs including ’Liberation for Paleostine and Planet,’ a message they also chanted," it added. "Several then pretended to be dead on the ground as others walked around pouring fake blood over them and the road — with their chants met by loud boos from spectators."

Fox News noted that some activists were heard saying, "There is only one solution, intifada revolution."

Some of the activists were heard yelling the anti-Israel chant, "From the river to the sea, Paleostine will be free!" The chant generally means support for the destruction of Israel. Some had messages like "militarism," "racism," and "ethnic cleansing" emblazoned over their jumpsuits. When an officer approached to move them, a protester said, "I’m glued down, I can’t get up ... We need a ceasefire."

"The Paleostinians deserve the right to return to their ancestral land," the activist could be heard saying.

Another activist even included some climate change messaging, "There’s an ongoing genocide, and our planet is dying."

If you dig down to the 1000 AD line in the Americas you won't find any writing, tablets, or parchments with English or Spanish. If you dig in that part of world to the 500 BC line, you will find stuff with Hebrew on it. Just who's ancestral land?

At the end of 19th century, Jews started settling and developing the land - incidentally, not taking anything but buying it from absentee Arab landlords .
Once Jews developed the land, Arab immigration (aided and abetted by the Perfidious Albion) started - just like Muslim emigration to the Western countries today: they do love other People's property.

Israel-Palestine-Jordan
Free at last! 13 women and children Israeli hostages are finally released after 48 days in captivity in Gaza - along with 12 Thai nationals who were also being held by Hamas
[DM] The first group of hostages have been released from Gaza after 48 days of captivity as part of a truce deal between Israel and Hamas that went into effect this morning - with children and a grandmother thought to have died in captivity among them.

Thirteen Israeli women and children and 11 Thai and Filipino hostages, who were kidnapped and taken into the territory by the terror group in its October 7 attack on Israel, were finally freed today after an agonising wait.


Israeli media reported the hostages had been transferred by Hamas to the Red Cross, then on to the Egyptians, before crossing into Egypt. Live footage showed the hostages leaving Red Cross vans and entering a trauma centre at the Rafah Crossing to undergo medical examinations.

Qatar's foreign ministry said tonight that ten Thai prisoners, and one Filipino citizen have been released, alongside the 13 Israeli prisoners, who are now back in Israel and will soon be reunited with their families, the IDF confirmed.

Going the other way were 39 Palestinian prisoners - 24 women and 15 teenagers - who have been released by Israel as part of the deal that paused the fighting in the Gaza Strip for the first time in seven weeks which was sparked by Hamas's attack, Qatar's foreign ministry confirmed.

Israeli prison transport vans have been seen leaving the Ofer military prison near Jerusalem, with Palestinian prisoners believed to be onboard.

The lists of all civilians that would be released from Gaza has been agreed, but was not released publicly ahead of time. Some 30 children are currently believed to be among the 240 captives who were taken into Gaza by Hamas.

The full list was later revealed as Margalit Moses (72), Adina Moshe (72), Danielle Aloni (45) and her daughter Emilia (six), Doron Asher (34) and her daughters Raz (four) and Aviv (two), Hanna Katzir (77), Keren Munder (54) and her son Ohad Munder-Zichri (nine), Ruti/Ruthi Munder (78), Yafa/Yaffa Adar (85), and Hannah Perry/Chana Peri (79).

All of the hostages were taken from Nir Oz, a kibbutz less than two miles from the Israel-Gaza border, apart from Chana Peri - who was snatched from kibbutz Nirim.

#4  The 'Pause' or cease fire is supposed to be contingent on a specific number of detainees being released each day. Stop the releases, the shooting starts back up.
Supposedly the hostages have been identified by name, sorted into groups, and each are assigned a slot and day.
You'd expect the ones that are 'iffy' for whatever reason (injured, etc) to be held to the end, because if they can't / aren't released on schedule, them the deal blows up. But the deal blows up in 4 days anyway.

IDF says it shot down cruise missile — apparently fired by Houthis — over Red Sea
[IsraelTimes] The Israel Defense Forces said Wednesday a fighter jet successfully shot down an incoming cruise missile over the Red Sea, close to the southernmost city of Eilat.

The missile is believed to have been fired by the Iran-backed Iran's Houthi sock puppets
...a Zaidi Shia insurgent group operating in Yemen. They have also been referred to as the Believing Youth. Hussein Badreddin al-Houthi is said to be the spiritual leader of the group and most of the military leaders are his relatives. The legitimate Yemeni government has accused the them of having ties to the Iranian government. Honest they did. The group has managed to gain control over all of Saada Governorate and parts of Amran, Al Jawf and Hajjah Governorates. Its slogan is God is Great, Death to America™, Death to Israel, a curse on the Jews They like shooting off... ummm... missiles that they would have us believe they make at home in their basements. On the plus side, they did murder Ali Abdullah Saleh, which was the only way the country was ever going to be rid of him...
s in Yemen
...an area of the Arabian Peninsula sometimes mistaken for a country. It is populated by more antagonistic tribes and factions than you can keep track of...
.

The Houthis have fired several ballistic missiles and drones at Eilat since the beginning of the Israel-Hamas
...the braying voice of Islamic Resistance®,...
war last month, all of which were intercepted or missed their targets. On Sunday, Houthis seized the Galaxy Leader, an Israel-linked fat merchantman sailing in the Red Sea.

The IDF said the missile did not enter Israeli territory. Air raid sirens went off in the southern resort city of Eilat around the time of the incident.

An F-35 stealth plane was sent out to intercept the missile, the military said. It did not specify how far the weapon was from the country when the jet shot it down.

Though no group took responsibility, Hezam al-Asad, a member of the Iran-backed Houthi’s political bureau, wrote on the social media platform X, in Hebrew, "What is happening in Eilat?"

Al-Asad occasionally posts Hebrew-language taunts at Israel.

IOF Bomb West Bank, Resulting in 6 Martyrs and Multiple Injuries
[ENGLISH.ALMANAR.LB] Five Palestinian civilians lost their lives when an Israeli occupation army drone targeted a house and gathering of citizens in the Tulkarm camp.

The bombing also left several others wounded, with one of the injured individuals later being arrested after the occupation forces stormed the emergency department of Thabet Thabet Governmental Hospital.

According to local sources, the occupation forces bombed a house in the Balouneh neighborhood of the Tulkarm camp using two missiles, resulting in at least three young men being injured.

The occupation forces then proceeded to bomb other gatherings of citizens.

Syria-Lebanon-Iran
Son of a Lebanese parliament member was killed in an Israeli attack
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.

Beirut , November 23, 2023, 04:40 - IA Regnum. In the village of Beit Yahun in southern Lebanon, one of the houses where activists of the Shiite Hezbollah party were located was hit by an Israeli rocket. The IDF attack killed four people, Al Nashra news portal reported on November 22.

“At least four people were killed in an Israeli strike in southern Lebanon, including the son of MP Muhammad Raad , head of the Allegiance to Resistance parliamentary faction, which includes Hezbollah MPs, ” the publication said.

As Regnum reported , on November 22 it became known that the Israeli army carried out air strikes on targets of the Shiite organization Hezbollah in response to shelling from Lebanon. The IDF also shot down several Lebanese drones using air defense.

In early November, US President Joe Biden's senior adviser on energy and investment, Amos Hochstein , visited Lebanon and conveyed a warning to Hezbollah through Lebanese Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri and other officials not to escalate the situation on the Israeli border. After the visit, the adviser to the head of the White House got the impression that the Lebanese authorities and the Hezbollah movement were disinterested in a military confrontation with Israel.

Hezbollah's Mohammad Raad: The Father Who Joined Ranks of Martyrs' Families
[ENGLISH.ALMANAR.LB] Despite the tempest of loss, smiling Hezbollah MP Mohammad Raad stood firmly, as he received the body of his son, who was martyred in an Israeli strike on south Leb
...an Iranian satrapy currently ruled by Hassan Nasrallah situated on the eastern Mediterranean, conveniently adjacent to Israel. Formerly inhabited by hardy Phoenecian traders, its official language is now Arabic, with the usual unpleasant side effects. The Leb civil war, between 1975 and 1990, lasted a little over 145 years and produced 120,000 fatalities. The average length of a ceasefire was measured in seconds. The Lebs maintain a precarious sectarian balance among Shiites, Sunnis, and about a dozen flavors of Christians, plus Armenians, Georgians, and who knows what else? It is the home of the original Hezbollah, which periodically starts a war with the Zionist Entity, gets Beirut pounded to rubble, and then declares victory and has a parade. The Lebs have the curious habit of periodically murdering their heads of state or prime ministers...
late Wednesday.

Abbas, also known with his nom de guerre, "Siraj", was martyred along with four other Hezbollah fighters in an Israeli strike on the southern town of Beit Yahoun.

"He pursued a path and arrived. My only issue with him is that he preceded me. He surpassed me. May Allah accept him and brighten his face," MP Raad said about his son, Abbas, who walked the path of honor and freedom.

"We are firm on this path. We congratulate our martyr ’Siraj’ on this elevation," said the Hezbollah MP who emerged as a pillar of strength in face of the grief.

"We extend our congratulations to Sayyed Hasan Nasrallah who taught us how to be patient, steadfast, strong, and keen to pursue the path of freedom," MP Raad told al-Manar before dawn on Thursday.

Earlier on Wednesday, Hezbollah’s Islamic Resistance® mourned "with full pride and honor the loss of five of its dedicated mujahideen All the Way to al-Quds," a statement by the party’s Military Media Center read.

Among the deaders were Abbas Mohammad Raad "Siraj" from Jbaa, Khalil Jawad Shahimi "Siraj" from Markaba, Ahmed Hassan Mustafa "Malak Houla" from Houla, Mohammad Hassan Ahmad Sherri "Karbala" from Khirbet Salam, and Bassam Ali Kanjo "Abu Hussein Thaer" from Shaqra.

The five deaders were laid to rest in their hometowns on Thursday.
