This is breaking I am not sure what going on Israel blasts reported plan to sanction IDF battalion The Israeli government has responded with indignation after a report that the United States plans to sanction a West Bank unit of the Israel Defense Forces (IDF). Under the reported plan, members of the Netzah Yehuda unit — which is accused of human rights breaches — would be barred from receiving US military support or training. A report by the US news outlet Axios said it had information from three US government sources that US Secretary of State Antony Blinken would announce the sanctions within days. The decision is based on incidents that all took place in the West Bank and occurred before the October 7 Hamas terror attack on Israel, the report said. The unit was withdrawn from the West Bank in 2022. It reportedly comes after an assessment of several IDF and police units accused of human rights violations. The other units will not be sanctioned after they remedied their behavior, Axios said. The decision would comply with the 1997 "Leahy Law," which bans foreign aid and defense training programs for foreign security and military units that are credibly guilty of human rights www.dw.com/en/middle-east-updates-israel-angered-by-possible-us-sanctions/live-68881098

Bibi going for it Netanyahu vows to increase 'military pressure' on Hamas Israel will increase "military pressure" on the Palestinian militant group Hamas to secure the release of hostages held in the Gaza Strip, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said. "In the coming days we will increase the military and political pressure on Hamas because this is the only way to free our hostages," Netanyahu said in a video statement on the eve of the Jewish holiday of Passover. He also threatened "additional and painful blows," without giving details. Despite an international outcry, Netanyahu has repeatedly said the army will launch a ground assault on Rafah, a southern Gaza town that has so far escaped an Israeli invasion and where more than 1.5 million Palestinians have sought refuge. Israel and Hamas have been in indirect negotiations for months over a cease-fire and the release of more hostages taken in the October 7 Hamas attack on Israel. Until a few weeks ago, Israel believed that about 100 of the 130 rema www.dw.com/en/middle-east-updates-israel-angered-by-possible-us-sanctions/live-68881098

I be doing that Khnarori if I were you LOL! Iran's Khamenei congratulates military for attack on Israel Iran's Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei has thanked his country's military for their "success" after the country's first-ever direct attack on Israel from its own territory, last weekend. The 85-year-old leader on Sunday called upon the armed forces to "ceaselessly pursue military innovation and learn the enemy's tactics." Iran sent a barrage of more than 300 missiles, drones, and rockets at Israel from Saturday into Sunday last week, although some 99% of these were intercepted by Israel and its allies. It was in retaliation for an airstrike on the Iranian consular building in Damascus. Khameini said the key issue was that Iran had shown its power in attacking Israel, not the number of missiles launched or that penetrated Israel's defenses. www.dw.com/en/middle-east-updates-israel-angered-by-possible-us-sanctions/live-68881098

Here more update yeah probably searching for guns Devastation in Gaza as Israel wages war on Hamas Aid missions to hospitals in northern Gaza hampered by checkpoint delays, WHO says From CNN's Ibrahim Dahman Efforts to reach two hospitals in northern Gaza over the weekend were only partly successful because of delays at checkpoints and ongoing fighting, according to Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, Director-General of the World Health Organization. "On 20 April, WHO and partners could only partially complete their mission to Kamal Adwan and Al-Awda hospitals due to severe delays at checkpoints and ongoing hostilities," Tedros wrote Monday on X. As a result, he said "fuel and medical supplies did not reach Kamal Adwan, for the second time in the last 7 days, and partners were also unable to assess needs at Al-Awda to support restoration of services. This is further increasing the health risks of critical patients being treated there.” The mission was nonetheless able to evacuate four critically edition.cnn.com/middleeast/live-news/israel-hamas-war-gaza-news-04-22-24/index.html

WHOA that alot of bodies Nearly 300 bodies found in mass grave in Nasser hospital, says Gaza Civil Defense A mass grave with nearly 300 bodies has been uncovered at the Nasser hospital in southern Gaza by Gaza Civil Defense workers, following the withdrawal of Israeli forces from the area on April 7. "We have recovered 283 bodies of martyrs from the mass grave in the courtyard of the Nasser Medical Complex since the withdrawal of the Israeli army,” Colonel Yamen Abu Suleiman, Director of Civil Defense in Khan Younis, told CNN Monday. The city of Khan Younis has been left in ruins after a months-long Israeli offensive. Suleiman claimed that some of the bodies had been found with hands and feet tied. "There were signs of field executions. We do not know if they were buried alive or executed. Most of the bodies are decomposed," he said. CNN is unable to verify Suleiman’s claims and cannot confirm the causes of death among the bodies being unearthed. CNN has put a number of questions to the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) about the discovery of the mass grave. One man at the scene told CNN that he has yet to fin edition.cnn.com/middleeast/live-news/israel-hamas-war-gaza-news-04-22-24/index.html

Remember we going put sanctions on IDF unit well Bibi is not happy Netanyahu critical of reported US plans to sanction IDF unit Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and other ministers have sharply criticized the reported plans of the Biden administration to sanction a unit of the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) for alleged human rights abuses in the occupied West Bank. The alleged abuses precede Hamas’ attack on Israel on October 7 and are said to have involved members of the Netzah Yehuda battalion in the occupied West Bank. Netanyahu posted on X at the weekend: “Sanctions must not be imposed on the Israel Defense Forces!” "At a time when our soldiers are fighting the monsters of terror, the intention to impose a sanction on a unit in the IDF is the height of absurdity and a moral low," Netanyahu said. He claimed he and his government will "act by all edition.cnn.com/middleeast/live-news/israel-hamas-war-gaza-news-04-22-24/index.html#:~:text=Israeli%20Prime%20Minister%20Benjamin%20Netanyahu%20and,his%20government%20will%20%22act%20by%20all

Raisi's comments were made on the second of his three-day official visit to Pakistan, at a university in Punjab province.

Well least they give them warninggg LOL! IDF warns people to leave "dangerous combat zone" in parts of northern Gaza The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) has issued a warning to people in parts of the area of Beit Lahia in northern Gaza. Identifying several blocks from its map of Gaza, the IDF warns: “You are in a dangerous combat zone. The IDF will work with extreme force against terrorist infrastructure and subversive elements in the region.” The IDF called on residents to evacuate and "head towards the known shelters in Blocks No. 1770, 1766" in the west and south of the city. “The most excused is he who warns,” the message ends. It’s unclear how many people would receive the warning, given the sporadic nature of electricity and connectivity in northern Gaza. Reports from journalists in Gaza speak of artillery bombardments and air strikes in the north and renewed airstrikes in Zeitoun in central Gaza. edition.cnn.com/middleeast/live-news/israel-hamas-war-gaza-news-04-23-24/index.html

This is interesing IDF says suspicious aerial targets intercepted off Israel's north coast The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) says it has “successfully intercepted two suspicious aerial targets off the northern coast.” “The sirens regarding rocket fire sounded following the possibility of fallen shrapnel from the interception. The incident has concluded,” it said. Sirens sounded in the city of Acre for the first time since December. Hezbollah said that “in response to the Israeli aggression on the town of Adloun and the assassination of one of our mujahideen brothers,” it had launched an attack on the command headquarters of the Golan Brigade and the Eguz 621 unit near Acre. Earlier, Hezbollah had acknowledged the death of a senior operative, Hussein Ali Azkul. The IDF said it had killed Azkul, whom it described as “a significant terrorist operative in Hezbollah's Aerial Defense Unit” in southern Lebanon. edition.cnn.com/middleeast/live-news/israel-hamas-war-gaza-news-04-23-24/index.html
