Israel At War Thurs Feb 6

Israel  at war day 489

- IDF striking deep inside Lebanon 

An Israeli source confirms that Israel is attacking in Lebanon and says, We are attacking following Hezbollah's violations of the ceasefire agreement—attempts to smuggle weapons into Lebanon via the border with Syria and the establishment of Hezbollah infrastructure in the areas being attacked.

- Netanyahu on the eliminations of the leaders of Hezbollah, Hamas, and the pager operation in Lebanon: 

"I was advised to inform the Biden admin of the decision in advance. I said over my dead body, It won't happen, because they'll leak it."

- Prime Minister Netanyahu met with the leadership of the US Senate in Washington, and the Senate expressed full support for Israel. Netanyahu clarified Israel's position to prevent Iran from getting nuclear weapons and to eliminate Hamas. The Senate agreed with his positions and pledged to pass a law against the International Criminal Court

-The Mekubal  Rabbi Yaakov Adas tells Kikar Hashabbatqàa: There is disrespect for the army, disrespect for the lives of hostages, and disrespect for human life. They were offered to put a system in the soldiers' helmets that would identify hostages so as not to shoot them, and they refused.

- Trump: The Gaza Strip would be turned over to the United States by Israel at the conclusion of fighting. The Palestinians, people like Chuck Schumer, would have already been resettled in far safer and more beautiful communities, with new and modern homes, in the region. They would actually have a chance to be happy, safe, and free. The U.S., working with great development teams from all over the World, would slowly and carefully begin the construction of what would become one of the greatest and most spectacular developments of its kind on Earth. No soldiers by the U.S. would be needed! Stability for the region would reign!!!

- Two Israeli soldiers were killed and eight others were wounded in an accident in the Gaza Strip late last night after a Crane collapsed due to harsh winds falling on their tent.

- Jordanian Foreign Minister said yesterday regarding the "expulsion of West Bank residents to Jordanian territory: A mass or forcible expulsion of Palestinians from the West Bank to Jordan means a declaration of war. Jordan will fight with everything at its disposal. This is a declaration of war from our perspective. We will fight. This is, in fact, a transfer of the occupation crisis to Jordan. This is an undermining of the state of Jordan and an undermining of the rights of the Palestinian people to their homeland.

- The covers of newspapers in the Arab world and Europe: “No concessions and no slogans regarding our position on Palestine." “Wide Arab and international rejection of Trump's 'bombshell'"
