Israeli Bombardment, Airstrikes Wipe Out 70% of Jabalia's Buildings; Gaza City Reduced to Ashes

Israeli airstrikes and relentless bombardment have devastated Gaza's Jabalia refugee camp, destroying 70% of its buildings and turning the once-thriving area into a ghost town. The attack has left thousands of Palestinians trapped under rubble, with entire neighborhoods reduced to ash. This destruction is part of Israel's ongoing offensive against northern Gaza, where towns like Jabalia, Beit Lahiya, and Beit Hanoun have been besieged for over 40 days, enduring constant shelling, drone strikes, and a complete blockade. Despite the dire humanitarian situation, Hamas's armed wing, the Ezzedine al-Qassam Brigades, has continued launching retaliatory strikes against Israeli forces, intensifying the ongoing violence. #JabaliaDevastation #GazaUnderAttack #IsraelAirstrikes #GazaGhostTown #PalestinianResistance #GazaBombardment #JabaliaDestroyed #IsraelWarCrimes #GazaCrisis #SavePalestine #PalestinianLivesMatter #GazaRubble #EndTheSiege #IsraeliAggression #PalestineInCrisis Also Read UN Peacekeepers in South Lebanon Targeted by Israeli Airstrikes Amid Escalating Hezbollah Conflict :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/un-peacekeepers-south-lebanon-israel-hezbollah-conflict-011-3958449.html?ref=DMDesc IDF To Launch 'Powerful Airstrikes' Across Middle East Tonight, Israeli Military Confirms :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/idf-to-launch-powerful-airstrikes-across-middle-east-tonight-israeli-military-confirms-3949997.html?ref=DMDesc Israel All Set For A 'Lethal' Attack From 'Land, Sea and Air' On Gaza In Ongoing War With Hamas :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israel-all-set-for-a-lethal-attack-from-land-sea-and-air-on-gaza-in-ongoing-war-with-hamas-3666547.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~PR.152~ED.194~

Iran's Khamenei Says Hezbollah, Hamas, Houthis Act Independently, Rejects ā€˜Proxy Forceā€™ Accusations

Iranā€™s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, has rejected claims that groups like Hezbollah, Hamas, and the Houthis act as proxy forces for Tehran. Speaking on Sunday, Khamenei emphasized that these groups operate independently based on their own interests and decisions, while acknowledging Iranā€™s support for their causes. Hezbollah in Lebanon, Hamas in Palestine, and the Houthis in Yemen are often accused by Western nations of serving as Iranā€™s regional proxies to expand its influence. However, Khamenei dismissed such accusations, stressing that these organizations are motivated by local grievances and ideological commitments, not Iranian directives. #Iran #Khamenei #IranProxies #MiddleEast #Hezbollah #Hamas #Houthis #ProxyForce #IranianPolicy #RegionalConflicts #Geopolitics #IranSupport #IndependentGroups #MiddleEastTensions #IranianInfluence #AyatollahKhamenei Also Read Syria's Future: Insights from the Arab Spring's Democratic Transitions :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/syrias-future-lessons-from-arab-spring-nations-011-4022149.html?ref=DMDesc Iran Halts Implementation of New Stricter Headscarf Law Amid Protests Concerns :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/iran-pauses-strict-headscarf-law-implementation-011-4018843.html?ref=DMDesc Iranian Singer Parastoo Ahmady Arrested For Performing In Online Youtube Concert Without Hijab :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/iran-singer-arrested-performing-online-concert-without-hijab-011-4016049.html?ref=DMDesc ~PR.152~ED.103~HT.336~GR.121~

Israel Vs Russia Face-off At UN: Iran Fumes As U.S Rejects Gaza Ceasefire Proposal

Tensions at the United Nations have escalated as Israel and Russia clashed over the ongoing Gaza conflict, with Iran strongly condemning the U.S. for rejecting a proposed ceasefire. The UN General Assembly has called for an immediate ceasefire to address the worsening humanitarian crisis, but the U.S. vetoed the measure, citing security concerns and ongoing threats from Hamas. Iran has accused the U.S. of enabling violence by siding with Israel. Meanwhile, Israel criticized the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA), alleging that dozens of its 13,000 workers in Gaza participated in Hamas attacks, further complicating relations with the UN. These developments highlight deep divisions among global powers, leaving the path to resolving the Gaza conflict uncertain. #IsraelVsRussia #UNFaceOff #IranFumes #USRejectsCeasefire #GazaCeasefireProposal #UNRWAControversy #IsraelBlastsUNRWA #MiddleEastConflict #UNDebates #IsraelPalestine #RussiaVsIsrael #UNResolution #CeasefireDebate #GazaCrisis #DiplomaticTensions ~HT.178~PR.152~GR.124~
