'Repeated #Israeli strikes to disable Damascus and Aleppo airports are a strong indication that
the #Iranian regime is trying to move strategic weapons to or via #Syria to open a northern front and the Israelis are determined to preempt that. It demonstrates that if the Israelis were to decide that Assad must pay the price for hosting Khamenei & Nasrallah’s front, they can take out any target'

#Iranian President Ebrahim 'Raisi and #Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman #mbs held a phone call on Wednesday to discuss the #Israel - #Gaza conflict, state media in #Tehran reported.

It marked the first known call between the leaders since China negotiated a deal between the two after seven years of hostility.

at the moment, no crossings into #Gaza are functioning.

All the crossings into #Israel have been closed since #Hamas launched its deadly attack on Israel on Saturday.

Until yesterday, the #Rafah crossing between Gaza and #Egypt was operating.

On Sunday, it was open for goods and about 200 trucks of food, fuel and construction materials were allowed in, acc to OCHA

V reuters:
#Turkey is carrying out negotiations regarding civilians held by the #Palestinian #Hamas militant group after its attack on #Israel on the weekend, a senior Turkish official said on Wednesday, as Ankara ramped up efforts and diplomacy to mediate the conflict.

The official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the talks were being carried out by Turkey's relevant institutions upon orders by President Tayyip Erdogan, but provided no further details

V Haaretz:
Benny #Gantz , who joined an emergency govt with #Netanyahu, stated that his cooperation is "a clear message to our adversaries and to all #Israeli citizens: all of us together are mobilizing." Gantz said after the Security Cabinet meeting, "Just as people from left and right, from the city and the village, go out to fight, decisions of the government will also be made by people from different camps. Now, we are all one camp - the camp of the people of Israel."

#Iran has continued to warn #Israel that if it escalates the conflict in #Gaza it risks drawing in the involvement of Iran's military.

"If they do not cease their atrocities in Gaza, Iran cannot simply remain an observer," For Min Amirabdollahian told Al Jazeera.

"If the scope of the war expands, significant damages will also be inflicted upon America," he added.

It comes one day after Amirabdollahian met with the leader of Hamas in Doha.

Which math is the biggest lie:

a) trickle-down economics
b) "I'm 6 feet tall"
c) the "8 rolls = 24" on the side of a package of "jumbo" toilet paper rolls

The holidays and the Iowa caucus are right around the corner and I don’t think any of Trumps opponents have come close to touching his numbers. This party is deeply unserious about defeating Trump and it’s only going to get worse. He’ll eventually die and be elevated to Ronald Reagan status. #Politics #Election2024 #Trump

“If it is decided that we don’t need to know how many Palestinian children and adolescents have been killed in both the West Bank and in Gaza this year or over the years of occupation […] then we have decided that we do not want to know the history of violence, mourning & outrage as it is lived by Palestinians. We only want to know the history of violence, mourning & outrage as it is lived by Israelis” - Judith Butler. https://www.lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v45/n20/judith-butler/the-compass-of-mourning

So funny that “ghost hunter” YouTube channels just rent Airbnbs pretend they’re haunted and get millions of views.
