A UNIFIL patrol was intercepted today by residents after entering the valley between Hallousiyyeh and Deir Qanoun al-Nahr without ‘Lebanese army’ coordination, underscoring mounting tensions between southern communities and the UN force.

Several residents were injured as the Lebanese army intervened to break up a clash with a UNIFIL patrol attempting to re-enter Wadi Deir Qanoun al-Nahr.

The UNIFIL has forfeited any right to operate independently in Lebanon as they gravely abused Lebanese sovereignty by allowing access to BBC.

Furthermore, the fake international entity has never intervened to stop the US-BACKED terror colony from bombing southern Lebanon at will.

On the contrary, the UNIFIL turned a blind eye at each passing of such Zionist infringements in southern Lebanon.

Reminder:

The Zionist colony, too , had granted access to the Zionist enemy at the height of the war.

Four activists from the Gaza-bound Madleen vessel, including Greta Thunberg, were deported by Zionist colony on 10 June after signing expulsion papers, while eight others remain imprisoned for refusing to do so.

“Anyone who refuses to sign deportation documents and leave ‘Israel’ will be brought before a judicial body in accordance with ‘Israeli law’, in order to approve the deportation,” Israeli Foreign Minister Israel Katz said.

On 9 June, Israeli forces intercepted the UK-flagged vessel in international waters, more than 60 nautical miles off Gaza’s coast.

The ship was seized by Shayetet 13, Israel’s naval commando unit, and towed to Ashdod port. Activists say they were held at sea for hours, denied communication, and sprayed with choking agents from drones before being forcibly detained.

Among those still detained are French MEP Rima Hassan and journalists from Al Jazeera and Blast media, both of whom were covering the aid mission when the ship was seized.

They are currently being held at a detention facility near Ramle, southeast of Tel Aviv, according to legal representatives.

“These antisemitic flotilla activists closed their eyes to the truth and once again proved they prefer the murderers over the victims,” Katz said. “They continue to ignore the atrocities committed by Hamas against Jewish and Israeli women, the elderly, and children.”

At over 60 nautical miles from shore, the Madleen was operating well within international waters, where foreign civilian vessels are protected under maritime law.

According to the Hind Rajab Foundation (HRF), Israel’s interception lacked any legal basis, as exceptions – such as piracy or weapons smuggling – require specific UN authorization, which was not present in this case.

Key allegations in the HRF’s complaint include the unlawful use of chemical irritants, arbitrary arrest, incommunicado detention, and degrading treatment of unarmed civilians.

The foundation argues that, as a UK-flagged ship, the Madleen constitutes British territory under international law, making the raid a direct violation of British jurisdiction.

The complaint, filed with the London Metropolitan Police War Crimes Unit, names Shayetet 13 and Israeli Navy Commander David Saar Salama, and calls for a criminal investigation.

It also urges UK authorities to collect testimonies, issue arrest warrants, and coordinate with Interpol and the International Criminal Court (ICC).

The foundation says the raid violates multiple international legal instruments, including the Fourth Geneva Convention and binding International Court of Justice (ICJ) rulings requiring unimpeded humanitarian access to Gaza.

It draws parallels to Israel’s 2010 assault on the Mavi Marmara, warning that failure to hold perpetrators accountable will only embolden further attacks on humanitarian missions.

Our conditions in the last few hours were nothing compared to what people are going through in Palestine, especially in Gaza, right now.

At least 20 Palestinians have been killed by the Zionist occupation military as they attempted to collect aid near a food distribution point in Gaza, according to local officials, marking the latest casualties of a new system to provide supplies that critics say is unethical, chaotic and dangerous.
Palestinian witnesses said Israeli forces opened fire on Tuesday morning as people went to receive supplies from a site in central Gaza run by the so-called Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF), an Israeli and US-backed group.
The authorities added that more than 120 others were wounded in the incident.
The latest attack comes hours after Israeli forces killed 14 Palestinians who had gathered at the GHF site in southern Rafah.
The deaths bring to over 110 the number of people killed while trying to find food in Gaza since May 27, when the GHF became responsible for civilian food provision. More than 1,000 others have been injured.
Earlier this month, 31 Palestinians were killed by Israeli fire as they went to receive food.
The Israeli military alleged it had fired warning shots towards several suspects who advanced towards troops.
The Israeli military resumed bombardment of Gaza on March 18, killing thousands of Palestinians, and injuring many others, after it shattered the 2-month ceasefire agreement with the Palestinian group Hamas and the deal on the exchange of Israeli captives with Palestinian abductees.

At least 54,927 Palestinians have been killed, mostly women and children, and another 126,615 individuals injured in the brutal Zionist occupation military onslaught on Gaza since October 7, 2023.
The International Criminal Court issued arrest warrants last November for Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former minister of military affairs Yoav Gallant, citing war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza. The colony also faces a genocide case at the International Court of Justice for its war on the besieged coastal territory.

PressTV report

The ‘Lebanese army’ says it has completed its inspection operations for weapons and military equipment in the southern Beirut suburb of Dahiyeh — a stronghold of the Hezbollah resistance movement — without finding anything suspicious.

The military said in a statement that it had carried out the search on the al-Marija and Laylaki streets of the Dahiyeh district following guidance from the UN ceasefire monitoring committee, which warned that the area would be bombed if weapons were present.

The army initially resisted the request, citing the committee’s limited jurisdiction to areas south of the Litani River.

However, the committee urged a deep search, requesting digging up to 10 meters deep, which suggested the presence of suspicions of underground facilities that could violate the ceasefire terms.

The inspections came after Israeli warplanes launched a series of airstrikes on Beirut’s southern suburbs, targeting the densely populated neighborhoods of Hadath, Haret Hreik, and Burj al-Barajneh, on the eve of the Muslim Eid al-Adha (Feast of Sacrifice) holiday.

On January 27, 2025, Lebanon had announced its decision to extend the ceasefire with Israel until February 18. However, since the beginning of the ceasefire, Israeli occupation forces have repeatedly violated the agreement by launching assaults on Lebanese territory, including aerial bombardments across the country.

Although the February 18 deadline has passed, Israel continues to occupy five key regions in southern Lebanon—Labbouneh, Mount Blat, Owayda Hill, Aaziyyeh, and Hammamis Hill—all located near the border.

Under the terms of the ceasefire agreement, Israel was obligated to fully withdraw from southern Lebanon by January 26. The deadline was later extended to February 18, yet Tel Aviv has refused to comply. To this day, Israel maintains a military presence at the five border outposts of Labbouneh, Mount Blat, Owayda Hill, Aaziyyeh, and Hammamis

Lebanese authorities have reported nearly 3,000 Israeli violations of the truce, including the deaths of at least 208 people and injuries to more than 500 since the agreement took effect.

Lebanon has condemned the continued presence of Israeli military forces, viewing it as a violation of the ceasefire agreement. Senior officials in Beirut have expressed their commitment to take “all necessary measures” to remove the occupying troops from the country.

Al Manar report

The fourth large-scale attack on Beirut since the November ‘ceasefire agreement’ last week caused major damage.

Thousands from Mauritania, Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, and Libya  will set off to break the siege, coinciding with the efforts of the march in Egypt and the Freedom Flotilla, set to arrive within 48 hours.

Thousands of people will attempt to break the siege on Gaza from Egypt. From June 12th to 15th, they will embark on a three day desert trek from Cairo to Rafah, while an Egyptian team will manage food and other accomodations.

In addition to the march to break the siege from Egypt, a massive convoy is launching today, starting in Tunisia, to break the siege on Gaza.

Thousands from Mauritania, Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, and Libya  will set off to break the siege, coinciding with the efforts of the march in Egypt and the Freedom Flotilla, set to arrive within 48 hours.

Nearly 10,000 people have signed up. Organizers say that it is the first real land convoy to Gaza since the start of the war, and that its goal is more than just delivering aid, but to break the siege.

In Algeria, a large popular sendoff was held for the Resilience (Sumud) Convoy, a massive land march in which thousands of volunteers will cross from Algeria to Tunisia, Libya, and Egypt, eventually arriving at the Rafah border crossing between Egypt and the Gaza Strip. In each country that the convoy passes through, more volunteers are expected to join.

The Resilience Convoy aims to break the siege on the Gaza Strip and bring humanitarian aid to millions of struggling Palestinians in the face of brutal IOF siege and aggression.
