Hezbollah Chief Warns Netanyahu: “We Fear Nothing..” — 4,000 Dead, Lebanon’s Patience is Running Out [Video]

Hezbollah Chief Warns Netanyahu: “We Fear Nothing..” — 4,000 Dead, Lebanon’s Patience is Running Out

Hezbollah's Secretary-General Sheikh Naim Qassem delivers a fierce warning to Israel amid escalating tensions and ongoing violations of the ceasefire agreement. With over 4,000 lives lost in Lebanon since the conflict reignited, Qassem makes it clear: “We have options — and we fear nothing.” In this powerful address, he underscores Hezbollah’s readiness to act, condemns Israeli expansionist ambitions, and calls out U.S. interference in Lebanese affairs. As the ceasefire teeters on the edge, Lebanon’s resistance signals that its patience has limits. #Hezbollah #Lebanon #Israel #MiddleEastTensions #Ceasefire #NaimQassem #Resistance #LebanonStrong #IsraelVsHezbollah #BreakingNews #MiddleEastCrisis #PoliticalUpdate #WarAndPeace Also Read Netanyahu Warns Hamas As Israel Strikes Gaza Amid Truce Collapse: 'Negotiations Only Under Fire' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/netanyahu-warns-hamas-as-israel-strikes-gaza-amid-truce-collapse-negotiations-only-under-fire-4098633.html?ref=DMDesc Justice Department and FBI Establish Task Force to Investigate Hamas Following October 7 Attack :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/justice-department-fbi-task-force-hamas-october-7-attack-011-4097559.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Issues Last Warning To Hamas To Release All Remaining Hostages Held In Gaza :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-issues-last-warning-to-hamas-to-release-all-remaining-hostages-held-in-gaza-4087647.html?ref=DMDesc

‘ARM PALESTINIANS NOW’: Houthi Urges Arab Nations To Defend Gaza Against U.S. and Israel

Houthi leader Abdul-Malik al-Houthi issued a fiery warning, urging all Arab nations to arm every Palestinian in defense against what he calls the U.S.-enabled “genocidal war” on Gaza. He claims Washington is supplying Israel with weapons while turning a blind eye to mass civilian deaths, medical facility destruction, and Gaza's forced displacement. As Rafah faces encirclement, al-Houthi warns Egypt’s national security is at risk. The Houthis blame Arab regimes for past disarmament and call for immediate military support to Palestinian resistance groups. Israel, backed by the U.S., continues strikes across Gaza and Lebanon. #Houthi #Gaza #Israel #Palestine #USPolitics #MiddleEast #WarOnGaza #AbdulMalikAlHouthi #Rafah #Resistance #ArabWorld #GazaWar #IsraelStrikes #Ceasefire #ArabNations #AnsarAllah #Hezbollah #QassamBrigades #QudsBrigades #MiddleEastConflict #GazaCrisis #HumanitarianCrisis #Zionism #ArmsSupply #USWeapons #TelAviv #IsraelGaza #Displacement #PalestinianResistance #GlobalTensions Also Read Netanyahu Warns Hamas As Israel Strikes Gaza Amid Truce Collapse: 'Negotiations Only Under Fire' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/netanyahu-warns-hamas-as-israel-strikes-gaza-amid-truce-collapse-negotiations-only-under-fire-4098633.html?ref=DMDesc Israeli Airstrikes Have Killed At Least 200 People In Gaza, Health Officials Say :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israeli-airstrikes-have-killed-at-least-200-people-in-gaza-health-officials-say-4097629.html?ref=DMDesc Explainer: How Israel’s Growing Entry Restrictions Are Blocking Doctors and Aid Workers from Gaza :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/explainer-how-israels-growing-entry-restrictions-are-blocking-doctors-and-aid-workers-from-gaza-4096773.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.194~HT.410~

The White House has issued a clarification on the explosive 245% tariff targeting Chinese imports. The new addendum reveals a two-tier structure—some goods will face the full 245%, while others remain at 145% for now. Trump’s administration has unleashed a historic wave of tariffs, including legacy measures from his first term, Biden-era expansions, and new 2025 hikes. China’s Foreign Ministry spokesman Lin Jian condemned U.S. pressure, warning of firm retaliation. From lithium batteries to squid and syringes, the fallout is just beginning.

‘Hamas Not Stupid’: Netanyahu’s SHOCKING Outburst Stuns Israelis After Al-Qassam Kills IDF Troops

Netanyahu stunned the nation by openly admitting that Hamas fighters “are not stupid,” rejecting strategies that involve misleading the group for tactical advantage. The shocking outburst followed reports that Al-Qassam Brigades, Hamas’s military wing, had killed several Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) troops in Gaza. Netanyahu’s remarks, viewed by many as a rare moment of candor and a potential sign of mounting pressure, have sparked fierce debate across Israel as the war drags on with no clear end in sight. #Hamas #Netanyahu #IsraelHamasWar #NetanyahuWarning #HamasHostages #IsraelVsHamas #IDFCasualties #GazaConflict #AlQassamBrigades #IsraelUnderFire #HamasAttack #CeasefireCrisis #MiddleEastTensions #NetanyahuSpeech #IsraelSecurity Also Read Netanyahu Warns Hamas As Israel Strikes Gaza Amid Truce Collapse: 'Negotiations Only Under Fire' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/netanyahu-warns-hamas-as-israel-strikes-gaza-amid-truce-collapse-negotiations-only-under-fire-4098633.html?ref=DMDesc Justice Department and FBI Establish Task Force to Investigate Hamas Following October 7 Attack :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/justice-department-fbi-task-force-hamas-october-7-attack-011-4097559.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Issues Last Warning To Hamas To Release All Remaining Hostages Held In Gaza :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-issues-last-warning-to-hamas-to-release-all-remaining-hostages-held-in-gaza-4087647.html?ref=DMDesc ~PR.152~HT.408~GR.344~

2500 U.S Troops In Real Danger: Iran Send BIGGEST Missiles Towards Israel In Iraq | U.S-Iran War

Just days before crucial nuclear talks, Iran has escalated tensions by transferring long-range missiles to Shia militias in Iraq. This bold move challenges U.S. and Israeli interests and reshapes the regional power game. The Times reports that the missiles crossed the Iran-Iraq border last week. While Tehran faces growing U.S. pressure and weakened allies like Hamas and Hezbollah, it now leans on Iraqi proxies. Trump has responded with renewed threats, saying military action is on the table. Iraq remains stuck in the middle of this high-stakes geopolitical showdown. #Iran #Missiles #MiddleEastCrisis #USIranTensions #Iraq #ShiaMilitias #NuclearTalks #Geopolitics #BreakingNews #Trump #Israel #ProxyWar #IranianProxies #RegionalConflict #MiddleEastUpdate #LongRangeMissiles #USMilitary #IranEscalation #PowerStruggle #Hamas #Hezbollah #IraqiMilitias #DefenseNews #USIsraelRelations #Tehran #BidenAdmin #TrumpSpeech #IranNuclear #USForeignPolicy #SecurityCrisis #DiplomacyUnderFire Also Read Iran Flexes Military Muscle, Unveils Underground 'Missile City' Amid Rising Tensions With US | WATCH :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/iran-flexes-military-muscle-unveils-underground-missile-city-amid-rising-tensions-with-us-watch-4110019.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Warns Iran: Strike A Nuclear Deal In Two Months Or Face Unprecedented Bombing :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-warns-iran-strike-a-nuclear-deal-in-two-months-or-face-unprecedented-bombing-4109797.html?ref=DMDesc How US Missile Strike Killed ISIS Leader Abu Khadijah - Watch :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/how-us-missile-strike-killed-isis-islamic-state-in-iraq-leader-abu-khadijah-watch-4095515.html?ref=DMDesc
