In a covert operation spanning over a decade, Israel's Mossad meticulously orchestrated one of its most audacious intelligence campaigns against Hezbollah.

‘No One Will Be Left…’: Al-Quds Brigades’ Warning Video Shocks Israeli; Ultimatum For Netanyahu [Video]

‘No One Will Be Left…’: Al-Quds Brigades’ Warning Video Shocks Israeli; Ultimatum For Netanyahu

The Al-Quds Brigades, the military wing of the Islamic Jihad Movement, has released a chilling video titled "No One Will Be Left to Tell the Tale... Time is Running Out," sending a stark warning to Israel. The video highlights the dire consequences of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's continued delay in finalizing a captive exchange and ceasefire agreement. It specifically raises alarms about the lives of Israeli captives held in Gaza, with the brigades making clear that the delay could lead to irreversible harm. The warning comes amidst Israel’s ongoing military aggression in Gaza, which has already claimed the lives of numerous Israeli captives over the past year. Israeli media recently reported on a failed rescue mission that tragically resulted in the death of captive Sahar Baruch, 25, while attempting to free another Israeli, Noa Argamani. This incident has intensified concerns about the risk to captives, as public opinion in Israel shifts, with 74% of Israelis now supporting a comprehensive deal to return all captives, even if it means ending the war. #AlQudsBrigades #IsraelCaptives #NetanyahuUltimatum #GazaCrisis #CaptiveExchange #TimeIsRunningOut #IsraeliHostages #CeasefireDeal #PalestinianResistance #IsraelGazaConflict #GazaWar #AlQudsBrigadesWarning #SaveIsraeliCaptives #MiddleEastTensions #IsraelWar ~PR.152~ED.346~HT.318~GR.122~
