According to a report by webangah News Agency, Turkey’s Directorate of Communications stated that President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan held a phone conversation with⁣ saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman bin Abdulaziz⁤ Al Saud.

The discussion reportedly covered bilateral ⁤relations between Turkey and Saudi Arabia,along with other regional and international matters.

the statement noted that ‌Erdoğan reaffirmed Turkey’s full support for Palestine at all ‌levels​ during the‌ call. He also welcomed⁤ Western countries’ decision to ⁣lift sanctions‌ on Syria.

While ‌this year’s Hajj pilgrimage continues in Saudi Arabia,Erdoğan extended eid al-Adha greetings to Mohammed bin Salman and‌ praised the successful organization of Hajj ceremonies.

according to webangah News Agency,the Zionist‍ magazine Marker revealed that Eilat port’s 2024 revenues dropped by 80% following Yemen’s maritime blockade,which prevents ships from⁢ docking at ⁣the strategic Red Sea ‍facility.

The Israeli cabinet will vote on a proposed 3.2 million shekel ($860,000) conditional compensation package during its upcoming Sunday‍ session.

The legislation underscores the severity of losses⁤ inflicted by the blockade, forcing Israeli vessels to reroute around‌ Africa‌ to reach Mediterranean ports of Ashdod and Haifa⁣ instead.

Zionist sources ‌confirmed only six ships docked at Eilat between January ‍and mid-May 2025,resulting in 21 employees being placed on unpaid leave. Just 16 vessels used‍ the ‍port throughout the‌ previous calendar year.

Eilat’s revenue ⁤plummeted from 212 million shekels ($57 million)⁢ in 2023 to just 42 million shekels ($11.3 million) in ⁢2024 -‍ a year that saw⁣ only ⁢one-tenth of the previous year’s ship traffic (134 vessels in 2023).

According to webangah‌ news Agency, Lebanese MP Ali Ammar, a member of the Loyalty to the Resistance bloc affiliated with Hezbollah, condemned last night’s large-scale Zionist regime aggression⁣ against Beirut’s southern suburbs ‌(Dahieh). ​He asserted that​ “the Zionist enemy persists in its arrogance and⁣ violations against⁣ Lebanon and its people, undermining the⁢ country’s sovereignty, stability, and security.”

Ammar accused ‍Zionist forces of ⁤continuing their assaults on Lebanon under false pretexts and overt U.S. cover while disregarding international‌ laws. ​He⁢ described the Zionist regime’s ⁤blatant violation of the ceasefire agreement between​ Lebanon and Israel during Eid al-Adha as a “war crime,” reflecting what ‍he‍ called “the enemy’s malicious intent to destabilize Lebanon and sabotage economic recovery efforts.”

The senior Hezbollah official held ceasefire-supporting countries-particularly the U.S.-responsible for these crimes, alleging america has⁤ never been a neutral mediator ‌but rather complicit in all Israeli aggressions against Lebanon. “The U.S. not only arms Zionists with internationally banned weapons but‍ justifies their‌ crimes,” he said, adding that Washington uses its UN security Council veto to shield ‍Israel from⁣ accountability.

Ammar⁢ cited unified ​condemnations ⁤by Lebanese President Michel Aoun, parliament Speaker Nabih ​Berri, Prime Minister‌ Najib ⁤Mikati, military leaders, and political factions as ⁤proof of national ‌solidarity against Israeli aggression. He emphasized ⁤that⁣ these attacks target all of Lebanon while exposing‍ Israel’s broader war ambitions.

“These violations only reinforce‍ our strength and ⁢resolve,”⁣ Ammar declared. “What the Zionist enemy and ⁣its American partner failed to‌ achieve through war will not ⁢be accomplished through escalation-the resistance remains steadfast in defending Lebanon’s land⁤ and people.”

According to webangah News agency, Israeli ‍regime media reported‍ a⁤ second Palestinian resistance operation in the Gaza Strip today.

The report states​ that Israeli regime helicopters landed in Gaza for the ​second ⁤time‌ today to evacuate the bodies of casualties and wounded soldiers. Zionist media confirmed these helicopters transported military casualties⁣ to Hadassah Ein Kerem ⁣Hospital.

Zionist officials described the incident ⁣as highly dangerous ​but have not yet released further details about their casualties.

Earlier, Israeli regime media reported another resistance ambush in Khan Younis city that killed 5 Zionist soldiers and injured 12 others.

News​ sources ‍stated a building ⁢collapsed ⁤on occupying forces ⁤during the Khan Younis ambush in southern Gaza, ​killing and⁢ wounding numerous ‌regime soldiers. Israeli helicopters ‌are extensively transporting both⁢ dead‌ bodies and wounded soldiers ‌to hospitals‍ within occupied ⁤territories.

According to webangah News Agency, ‌Lebanese sources reported that three people were wounded in ​an Israeli airstrike on Nabatieh.

The‍ Emergency Operations Center under Lebanon’s Health Ministry stated that three Lebanese citizens were injured in yesterday’s Israeli airstrike on Ain Qana village in Nabatieh.

Together, Lebanese sources confirmed ⁣Israeli drone flights over ⁣Beirut’s southern suburbs (Dahiyeh).

The Lebanese Army Command condemned Israel’s attacks and violations, notably last night’s ‍strikes on Ain Qana and southern Beirut suburbs, ​calling ⁤them a clear attempt by‍ Israel ⁣to undermine stability ​in ⁢Lebanon and exploit positive developments.

The army stated: “Our forces promptly ‌coordinated with the Ceasefire Monitoring Committee upon ‍detecting ⁢Israeli ​threats to prevent an ⁢attack.Despite⁣ enemy objections, our patrols deployed to multiple positions for reconnaissance.”

While ‍reaffirming commitment to UN Resolution 1701 and the cessation of hostilities ⁢agreement, the army warned: “Israel’s continued violations‌ and refusal to‌ coordinate with the⁣ monitoring committee weaken both the committee’s role and our military institution.‌ This coudl force‍ us to suspend cooperation with the ‘Mechanism’ regarding reconnaissance operations.”

The statement emphasized: “Israel has escalated attacks ‌against Lebanon recently, targeting civilians, residential buildings, and infrastructure​ across multiple‍ regions-including last night’s assaults on southern Beirut suburbs and south Lebanon-while continuing its ‍occupation of Lebanese territory. These​ daily breaches‍ show complete disregard for ceasefire mechanisms.”

The ‌army vowed: “Despite these‌ challenges, we remain determined to fulfill our ⁢complex mission of extending state authority over all Lebanese ⁣territory and​ ensuring citizen⁣ security.”

Overnight,after‍ issuing urgent warnings to residents of Dahiyeh and Ain qana,Israeli‌ forces instructed civilians to‍ evacuate ⁣eight buildings in Hadiyeh (El-Hadath),Harat⁤ Hreik (Haret Hreik),burj El-Barajneh (Borj El Barajne),plus two structures in Ain Qana.

Within hours following these alerts:

• At least ⁤ten warning explosions rocked Dahiyeh before Israeli jets conducted over 20 precision strikes on designated targets;
• Ain Qana ​village was hit three times⁤ by separate ⁤attacks.

According to a report by ‍ webangah News Agency,citing ⁤The Intercept,the U.S. magazine‌ published an article‍ asserting that America does not plan‌ to withdraw its troops ⁢from Syria even as political control shifts within ​the nation.

The Pentagon confirmed that Washington’s ⁤new⁣ policy toward ⁣Damascus does not⁣ include ending its⁣ occupation⁤ of Syrian territory.‌ Currently, approximately 1,000⁣ U.S. troops remain stationed in Syria.

The U.S. military has‍ operated in Syria⁣ for years as ⁢part of its complex⁤ and ofen⁢ confusing regional strategy. Late last ‌year,‌ Bashar al-Assad’s government was overthrown following a swift offensive by rebel forces led by Abu Mohammad al-Julani. Recent reports indicate that the U.S. ⁤is closing three of its eight small military bases in Syria.

Experts argue‍ that while the withdrawal from a handful of ⁣bases has been delayed for some time,it remains essential for ⁤any meaningful shift in America’s regional strategy​ and policy.

“Over 1,000 American troops remain stuck in Syria with ⁢no clear mission or timeline⁢ for their return,” said Rosemary Kalinik, Middle‌ East ‍program director at Defense⁣ Priorities.​ “These forces are ​remnants of the war‌ against ISIS-but ISIS was defeated over five ⁤years ago and lost all its territory. It’s time for these soldiers to come home.”

When asked whether the U.S. intends to withdraw from Syria entirely, a Pentagon spokesperson⁢ stated last April: “The American ⁣presence⁤ will decrease to‍ fewer than 1,000 troops but will not end completely.”

“Fear of an ISIS resurgence has long been ​used as justification,” Kalinik added, “but recent history in ​Afghanistan proves such claims false-America doesn’t need ground ⁣forces to counter any potential reemergence.”

In her interview with The intercept, she noted: “The ⁣primary argument for staying‍ in Afghanistan was ⁤preventing terrorism⁤ from groups like al-Qaeda or ISIS-yet these groups ‍never directly targeted americans there.”

“Keeping troops in ⁢Syria exposes them to retaliatory attacks,” ‍Kalinik concluded. “It’s almost like handing hostages over⁢ to America’s enemies-ready targets whenever they choose.”
