Resistance operations against Israeli occupation are visibly scaled up.  It is difficult to count as these are sometimes pinprick attacks from 12 or so different groups in different areas, highly ready soldiers and motivated up to the heavens with sneak attacks.  They are actively resisting attacks in the West Bank villages.  (A reminder, the lies are falling apart, there is no Hamas active in the West Bank Villages.  So, this is not an attack against Hamas.  Hamas is purely the false equivalent or false flag deliberately put forth to manipulate the context, perception, or frame in which Israel is killing Palestinians.  )

What a slogan!

“Yemen Yemen make us proud… turn another ship around”

Yemeni President and Supreme Commander of the Yemeni Armed Forces, Mahdi Al-Mashat:
—
The blood of the martyrs of the Naval Forces (https://t.me/PalestineResist/25188) has inaugurated a new battle with the American enemy, and the response to them is inevitable.

We, in the Republic of Yemen, are a nation of 40 million fighters ready to engage in battle, and the army is but the vanguard of this great people.

This battle greatly opens up horizons for us at the national and regional and in the area in general.

Resisting the injustice practiced against our people in Gaza is one of the best forms of jihad for the sake of Allah, and we cannot stop doing that.

Our humanitarian, faith-based, ethical, and political responsibilities oblige us to support our people in Palestine.

Any ship associated (https://t.me/PalestineResist/20021) with the zionist entity (https://t.me/PalestineResist/22386) will not pass through the Red Sea, whatever the cost.

Preventing the navigation of the zionist enemy is a Yemeni choice to impose peace and a dignified life for our people in Gaza.

If the American is committed to protecting the zionist entity, we are committed to protecting the oppressed servants of Allah in this land.

The American talks about peace while pushing towards war and has vetoed three resolutions in the Security Council to stop the war on Gaza.

Peace can be achieved firstly by stopping the daily crimes in Gaza and stopping the zionist aggression and the American terrorism supporting it.

The resistance is fighting like machines.  Nothing is too hard or too difficult.  This is only Hezbollah’s list for the day:

In support of the steadfast Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip and in backing their noble resistance, the Islamic Resistance carried out a number of operations against the positions and deployment of the “israeli” army at the Lebanese-Palestinian border on Saturday, January 6, 2024, as follows:

– Eastern Sector:

1- At 9:40 (https://t.me/PalestineResist/25346), targeting the “Metulla” site with appropriate weapons and achieving a direct hit.
2- At 9:55 (https://t.me/PalestineResist/25347), targeting a gathering of “israeli” army infantry near the Hounin barracks with appropriate weapons and achieving a direct hit.
3- At 15:40 (https://t.me/PalestineResist/25362), targeting the Bayad-Blida position with rocket weapons and achieving a direct hit.
4- At 17:15 (https://t.me/PalestineResist/25385), targeting a gathering of “israeli” army soldiers near the Manara site with appropriate weapons and achieving a direct hit.

– Western Sector:

1- At 7:50 (https://t.me/PalestineResist/25335), targeting the “Meron” base at the highest peak in occupied Palestine (Jabal Al-Jarmaq) which serves as the sole center for administration, monitoring, and air control in the north of the entity, concerned with air operations and electronic jamming in the region (Syria, Lebanon, Turkey, Cyprus, etc.) with 62 missiles of various types (https://t.me/PalestineResist/25391), causing confirmed direct hits as an initial response to the crime of assassinating the great leader Sheikh Saleh Al-Arouri (https://t.me/PalestineResist/24926) and his martyr brothers in the southern suburb [Dahiye] of Beirut.
2- At 16:40 (https://t.me/PalestineResist/25376), targeting a gathering of “israeli” army soldiers in “Avivim” with appropriate weapons and achieving a direct hit.
3- At 17:05 (https://t.me/PalestineResist/25384), targeting a gathering of “israeli” army soldiers near the Jal Al-Alam position with appropriate weapons and causing them to be killed and wounded.

There were again massive protests in the streets of most capital cities today.

And now israel has to detain its own settlers: Israeli forces on Saturday cracked down on Israeli settlers, who were protesting in occupied Jerusalem, demanding to stop the war on Gaza and engage in a deal to release Israeli detainees. At least 2 protesters were reportedly detained.

This is the most serious ever ….

The Iranian president:
🔹The enemy knows our strength and our response to the attack on Kerman will be determined by our forces at the appropriate time and place.
🔹The end of the Al-Aqsa flood will mark the end of the Zionist entity.
🔹The Zionist entity is killing children and women in Gaza, and victory will be the ally of the Palestinians. [the second bullet point is not hyperbole. What the crazed Zionists unleashed in Gaza is unlivable for any people of honor to countenance. They must now broaden the Annihilation to encompasse the entire region, or themselves be totally annihilated. This was stated indirectly by all the Israeli leadership — that it will necessarily be a long war (unsaid: not only limited to Gaza). And by Nasrallah two days ago, affirming all zionists will need to leave the Holy Land now, back to Europe or N America, and that ALL of Palestine will revert to Palestinians. These are not cheap words. All the intelligent worldwide recognize the raised stakes. The madmen opened the eschatological pandora’s box. This is why South Africa urgently requested the ICJ to halt the genocide, understanding there is no prospect of the Zionists stopping now….]

Two pieces of news made me laugh today.  First, that Kirby character must have made a speech or something because quotes from him are all over the place, and man, are they dumb?  Here we have, “based on “mosaic” of intelligence “knit together” and that North Korea supplied Russia with missiles for Ukraine attacks.”  They do not know what they are talking about.  They are making it up:

And then we have a name and a blast from the past. Daesh claims responsibility for terrorist bombings in Kerman.   The two terrorists apparently had their explosive belts on, blew themselves to pieces, and now they cannot be identified.   Who do you think is going to believe and buy this?

And just like clockwork, Daesh is back by remote control. pic.twitter.com/P9fzOSf0s8

Jan 3 (From Pepe Escobar)

The genocidals are now totally out of control.

Killing women and children is the way of cowards.

As their army continues to be humiliated in Gaza.

Enter a deadly provocation against Hezbollah.

Plus a deadly provocation against Iran.

Blowback is a given.

Asymmetrical and surgical.

Hamas announced a freeze on ceasefire negotiations with Israel after the faction’s deputy chief, Saleh al-Arouri, was killed on Tuesday evening in an Israeli attack in Lebanon.

“We have informed the brothers in Qatar and Egypt of the freezing of negotiations,” the source said on condition of anonymity. So far, Qatar and Egypt have been mediating a ceasefire.

Hamas rejected any talks about reaching a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip amid escalated Israeli aggression and “assassination schemes” against Palestinian leaders.

Several aides of Al-Arouri, deputy head of the Hamas politburo, were also killed in the Israeli attack targeting a Hamas office in the southern suburb of the Lebanese capital of Beirut.

2 explosions, 10 minutes apart, hit Soleimani’s cemetery.  Iran says it was a terrorist attack. 103 dead, 188 injured. This terrorist act will be met with a strong and decisive response from the security and military apparatus in the shortest possible time – Iranian interior minister

https://www.presstv.ir/Detail/2024/01/03/717528/terror-attack-in-Iran-Kerman-leave-at-least-20-dead

The West is desperate to kick up a regional war and the more it can involve Iran, the happier the US lawmakers will be.  The complete area is experiencing an uptick of contempt, mocking, and sheer fakery in information.  These people want a war.

It’s no coincidence that on the anniversary of his assassination, Israel also kills a Hamas leader in Beirut + an Iranian officer in Syria last week.

Israel is playing with fire to hide its failures in Gaza.

Just a few hours ago, Israeli troops conducted a targeted airstrike on the Beirut suburb of Ad-Dahiya. The objective of the attack was to eliminate the deputy head of the Hamas Politburo, Saleh al-Arouri.  Along with him, six other individuals lost their lives. According to some Palestinian sources, the leader of Hamas’ military wing in South Lebanon, Abu Amer, may also have been among the casualties. However, this information has not yet been confirmed.

Hezbollah’s reaction is unpredictable, especially given the recent increase in attacks in the south of Lebanon. Hassan Nasrallah, has a scheduled speech tomorrow.

Tomorrow is also the fourth anniversary of the assassination of Iranian commander-in-chief Qasem Soleimani. Therefore, in the Middle East, it is reasonable to anticipate increased activity.  We shall see.

Jan 2 – Russia is cleaning up!  OK, there is the retaliation for the Belgorod and Donbass strikes but the cleanup is clear to see. 

Putin said it clearly:  “Russia will not retaliate in kind to Kiev’s actions, despite being capable of doing so, Putin stressed. “Of course, we can, we are capable of carpet-bombing Kiev and any other [Ukrainian] city,” the president noted.

Instead, Russia will continue targeting Ukrainian military assets and infrastructure, Putin said, warning that the number of such strikes is bound to grow. The Ukrainian authorities’ terrorist activities will not be left unanswered, he stressed.”

Russian Defence Ministry report on the progress of the special military operation

(2 January 2024)

Part I (see Part II (https://t.me/mod_russia_en/11708))

▫️ The Armed Forces of the Russian Federation delivered a group strike with high-precision long-range weapons and unmanned aerial vehicles on enterprises of the military-industrial complex of Ukraine that carried out orders for the production of missiles, unmanned aerial vehicles, and repair of weapons and military hardware in Kiev and its suburbs, as well as storage sites for missiles, ammunition, and aircraft weapons supplied to the Kiev regime by Western countries. The purpose of the strike has been achieved. All the targets have been engaged.

In addition to the group strikes, the denazification cleanup :

Two sites associated with WW2-era Nazis – hailed in present-day Ukraine as national heroes – were damaged in the western city of Lviv overnight on January 1st. A major explosion entirely destroyed the house-museum dedicated to Roman Shukhevich. An early leader within the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists, Shukhevich participated in terrorist activities and assassinations when Lviv was part of Poland during the interwar years.  He went on to serve with the Nazi SS and later on led the Ukrainian Insurgent Army (UPA), which has been accused of extensive ethnic cleansing targeting the region’s Jewish and Polish populations. He died in 1950 during a shootout with Soviet counterintelligence.

The main building of the Lviv National Agrarian University was also damaged overnight; an explosion blew off its roof and set the historic structure on fire. The university is known as the alma-mater of Stepan Bandera, another Ukrainian nationalist leader and WW2-era Nazi collaborator who is commemorated with a statue in front of the now-damaged building.

On a possible US-UK-EU Assault on Yemen

The US via Saudi Arabia already waged war on Yemen for years, including aerial bombardments and a ground invasion, both of which failed.

The US (and the UK) were heavily involved, choosing targets, shipping additional arms to Saudi Arabia, carrying out maintenance on Saudi weapons including warplanes, and even providing special forces on the ground.

The US, UK, and EU launching a military operation against Yemen now will unfold in a very similar manner, and expend weapons the US requires for its proxy war in Ukraine and its expanding military aggression in Asia-Pacific.
