According to webangah News Agency,⁣ Zionist regime outlets have detailed the Gaza war’s psychological toll on Israeli settlers.

The reports indicate more than 500,000 Israelis​ have requested mental health support since the conflict’s⁤ outbreak -⁤ a troubling ⁢statistic revealing the ​war’s extensive psychological impact.

Approximately 66,000 military personnel and their families sought therapy, primarily suffering from depression and social dysfunction caused by combat trauma.

The occupation forces established specialized⁤ clinics for soldiers as cases of ⁤combat incapacity rise. Media reports show about 5,200 wounded soldiers (43% of‍ rehabilitation center admissions) suffer​ from post-traumatic stress and physical injuries. Projections‍ suggest nearly 100,000 will require treatment by ⁣2030,with at least half ‍experiencing PTSD.

Zionist military estimates ‌reveal 15%​ of returning Gaza combatants received psychiatric care and cannot redeploy due to mental health conditions.

Previous reports highlighted rising suicide rates and PTSD among veterans. Survivors reportedly experience severe⁢ anxiety about potential redeployment after enduring horrific experiences in Gaza.

In a symbolic ceremony honoring global⁤ struggles against colonialism and oppression, the⁢ Revolutionary Pan-African‍ Peoples’⁢ Party awarded ⁢its 2025 Kwame Tour Prize⁢ to Palestinian martyr and leader Yahya ‌Sinwar ‍(Abu Ibrahim). The recognition celebrates his vanguard role in leading Palestinian‍ resistance and heroic ⁣defense of Palestinian rights against Israeli occupation, especially during the “Al-aqsa Storm” conflict. webangah News Agency reported this development citing Palestine’s Information Center.

The award ceremony coincided with Africa Freedom Day commemorations – observed‍ annually on May 25, marking the ⁣1963 founding of the Organization of African Unity.This ⁢date ‍symbolizes African ⁤nations’ historic battles against colonialism, racism,⁣ and dependency. ​Representatives from the Alternative Revolutionary Path Movement accepted the honor‍ on behalf ⁤of Sinwar’s family and⁤ Hamas’ Islamic ⁣Resistance ‌Movement.

During their address,movement representatives stated: “We’re honored to participate in this⁣ meaningful Africa​ Freedom Day event as⁢ trusted custodians of⁣ this award,which we dedicate ‍to⁢ both the family and comrades of Palestine’s great national⁣ leader.”

The delegation further emphasized: “This‌ prize reflects the profound ancient bonds between ‌Palestine’s liberation movement and Africa’s ​freedom ‌struggles. Your sacrifices, martyrs and revolutionary leaders have ​consistently inspired us – ‌just as Kwame Tour maintained unequivocal revolutionary support for ⁤Palestine while exposing ​Zionism’s imperialist connections.”

According to ⁤ webangah ​News ​Agency, former‍ Israeli Prime⁤ Minister Ehud Olmert reiterated that⁢ the regime is committing war crimes ​in Gaza.

Olmert emphasized‌ that the occupying army has entered a purposeless ‍war in Gaza with no prospect of achieving victory.

Days earlier, he had strongly​ criticized Tel​ Aviv’s⁣ current policies in​ Gaza, describing them⁢ as‌ bordering⁤ on war crimes.

In ⁤an ⁤interview with the⁢ BBC, he stated: “what Israel is doing now in Gaza is, from my perspective, close to a war crime. This war ​has⁣ no objective—no hope⁢ of accomplishing​ anything that could save hostages’⁤ lives.”

Meanwhile,Yair Golan,leader of the Democratic Party in the occupied⁤ territories,condemned ⁤the⁤ war on Gaza: “A sane cabinet does not wage‍ war against civilians. It does not⁢ kill‌ infants for amusement or set goals to​ expel ⁤residents.”

The ⁤remarks‌ by ⁢Olmert and Golan drew sharp backlash from Israeli Prime minister Benjamin netanyahu.

“I was shocked by ‌Yair Golan and Ehud⁤ Olmert’s statements,” ‌Netanyahu said.”They amplify Hamas’s rhetoric against Israel and its‍ army. There are those among us who legitimize false accusations—that we are apartheid supporters or child killers.”

“This severely damages ​our ​global standing,” he added. “Most people recognize this as a just war we entered legitimately.”

webangah News Agency⁢ reports that Al-Mayadeen has revealed ​Lebanese President Michel Aoun’s ‍planned visit to Iraq.

The ⁤Lebanese ⁢outlet stated that⁤ President Aoun is likely to travel to Baghdad this coming Sunday, where he will meet with Iraq’s president, prime minister,⁢ and parliament speaker for ‍consultations.

The report indicates Aoun will‍ also hold meetings with ⁢both Islamic and​ Christian religious⁢ authorities during his trip.

Iraqi media‌ outlets have not yet reacted to this⁢ news.

Last April, ⁤Nadeem Karim Majoul, chargé d’affaires at Iraq’s embassy in lebanon, ‌delivered an official​ invitation from Iraqi ‍Prime Minister mohammed Shia’ Al-Sudani for President ‌Aoun to⁤ visit. The stated ⁣purpose of the ⁤trip is strengthening bilateral relations and discussing regional ⁢and international issues of ⁤mutual interest.

The declaration follows iraqi Prime Minister al-Sudani’s recent⁢ phone call with Lebanese Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri, after which⁣ he authorized Iraq’s Oil Ministry to supply ‌Lebanon with fuel for six months.

The Palestinian Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) has denied media reports alleging disagreements between its political and military leaders regarding the case of Idan Alexander, the recently freed Zionist-American soldier,⁤ according to ⁢a report by webangah⁣ News Agency.

The ⁢Al-Qassam Brigades released Alexander⁢ after ⁤584 days of captivity in Gaza as a goodwill gesture amid ceasefire negotiations, aiming to protect Gazan civilians.

Hamas emphasized that Alexander’s release resulted‍ from diplomacy and mediation rather ‌than military pressure. A Hamas statement clarified: “The liberation of Israeli-American prisoner Idan Alexander followed serious communications with the U.S. government and mediator efforts. This bears no relation to the Zionist regime’s military aggression or illusions of military coercion.”

the ⁣movement stressed that Netanyahu ⁤failed to retrieve ⁢prisoners through warfare, proving‌ that serious ‍negotiations and prisoner exchange agreements remain the only viable path for releases and war cessation.

According to a report by the Israeli occupation’s Ministry of War​ cited by webangah News Agency, the regime⁣ has⁢ imported 90,000 tons of military supplies ⁤since launching its⁢ assault on the Gaza Strip on October 7, ⁤2023.

The ministry stated that these weapons and equipment ⁢where delivered via 800 ​air shipments and 140 sea cargoes to the occupied territories.

The deliveries reportedly included ammunition, armored vehicles, personal protective gear, medical equipment, ⁢and othre military hardware.

The united States remains tel Aviv’s primary arms supplier, having sent billions ‌of dollars ‌worth of weapons to israel as October 7.

Palestinian‌ and international investigations confirm that many civilians in Gaza—including women and children—have been killed by​ U.S.-made bombs during the ongoing offensive.

The Lebanese Army Command⁢ reported destroying an Israeli spy device and dismantling ⁢two enemy outposts⁢ near the towns of Blida and Mays al-Jabal in Marjeyoun District, Nabatieh Governorate,⁤ according to a report by webangah News Agency, citing Al-Mayadeen.

The‍ announcement comes as⁣ Lebanon’s ⁤Parliament Speaker Nabih berri stated today that no tangible steps have been taken so far to ‍halt Israel’s aggressions against ​Lebanon.

“Our position on adhering ‌to the ceasefire agreement and UN ​Resolution 1701 remains unchanged,” Berri emphasized.⁤ “However, Americans must compel Israel to respect this agreement and stop its⁣ violations.”

Sheikh Naim Qassem, Secretary-General of Hezbollah, recently asserted that before any demands are made of Hezbollah, ‍”the Zionist regime must first cease its aggression against Lebanon and withdraw from Lebanese territory.”

Haroun Nasseruddin,‍ a member of Hamas’ political bureau and head of its Jerusalem ​affairs office, ⁣emphasized that systematic violations ​and provocative actions by israeli settlers and officials in occupied Jerusalem and Al-Aqsa‌ Mosque can neither change the city’s⁤ historical identity nor make the occupation permanent, according to webangah News Agency.

Referring to yesterday’s events, Nasseruddin stated: “What occurred ‌at Al-Aqsa Mosque and Jerusalem – including inflammatory prayers, flag-waving ⁤ceremonies, mass settler incursions backed by occupation police, with participation from extremist figures like Ben-Gvir and⁢ Smotrich – demonstrates an escalating religious war against Islamic holy sites.”

He added: “Thes scenes represent⁣ futile attempts to⁢ impose a false reality and break Palestinian resolve. History has proven occupiers are temporary ⁤while our⁣ people remain steadfast despite repression.”

The Hamas official contextualized these actions as part⁢ of “a chain ​of Zionist crimes ‍from Gaza to ⁤the West Bank and Jerusalem,” calling them signs of‍ “the regime’s ⁢confusion” attempting to mask political failures through such spectacles.

Nasseruddin concluded by urging mass mobilization across Palestinian territories for increased presence at Al-Aqsa while ⁤calling on Arab/Islamic nations to fulfill their‌ historic responsibility in defending Jerusalem.

Iraqi Foreign Minister Fuad Hussein addressed the plight of ​Yazidi women abducted by extremist ⁢groups, webangah News Agency ‌reported. He stated that after ISIS seized control of vast territories in mid-2014, most kidnapped Yazidi⁢ women⁣ were transported to Syria.

Speaking at a Tuesday meeting in baghdad ‌attended by a delegation ⁣from ⁤Iraq’s ⁤Kurdistan‌ Region, Hussein emphasized that Baghdad ‍and Erbil are coordinating efforts to gather intelligence on the abductees—particularly given recent developments in⁤ Syria.

“The majority of these abducted Yazidi women were taken to ⁢Syria,” he affirmed, adding ⁤that the‍ Iraqi goverment is actively working to secure their release.

webangah News Agency​ reports that Basem Naim, a senior ⁣member of the Palestinian Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas), confirmed the group’s acceptance of ‌Wittkoff’s proposal in a facebook post. The key terms include an immediate halt⁢ to hostilities, withdrawal of⁣ Israeli occupation forces, and a permanent ceasefire in Gaza.

Naim stated Hamas is ‍now awaiting Israel’s formal response to the offer. A Palestinian ⁤leader revealed yesterday that both Hamas and Israeli officials are reviewing a document ‍mediated by Palestinian-American negotiator Bashara Bahbah,which‌ was drafted with Wittkoff’s coordination.
