Give up Ali al-Taher, remove the cause and get peace However the reality is very different Give up Ali al-Taher to give up al-Dabsha But how can you not give up Sujod and Jabal al-Rafeea'. But also Al-Rayhan and all those mountains Naive is anyone who thinks it ends at Ali al-Taher. Naive you are if you think it ends at Sujod and Al-Rayhan. Ali al-Taher today withheld against all odds, fighters in isolation with no sun comfort or sufficient food and water. If it falls the battlefield moves to the new grand goal. The war doesn't end there Israel is a beast that has unleashed the most major power grab since 1948 and is on the most destructive path in its history. Netanyahu, Katz, Smotrich and Ben Gvir have said it every day: We are destroying these villages on purpose. We will never leave. We need to kill more. They don't want the Lebanese negotiations to even succeed, the farce negotiations by the traitor Aoun and Nawaf, whose family sold Al-Hula plain to the Zionist movement. Israel will not be tamed by anything even a direct U.S order. The whole word is changing because of this. But always remember, as his eminence once said: There is always a sunrise 🌅 And tbh, have your faith in who you always did. Do not betray them when weak. It is only now when our faith is truly tested Hezbullah is the only light in this whole world. Accept it, embrace it, and support it

“This shutdown is pushing the healthcare system toward catastrophic crises with grave consequences,” said Dr. Mohammad Abu Afash, director of Medical Relief in Gaza, as he warned that medical and health services at relief centers could stop within the next 24 hours due to a severe shortage of generator fuel and maintenance necessities, in exclusive remarks to Palestinian Raya radio, on Sunday, August 16. ￭ Abu Afash said “The occupation is preventing the entry of supplies and stockpiled medications and refuses to coordinate their transport to field centers and clinics," adding that Israel “has destroyed alternative energy sources, forcing the organization to rely entirely on generators.” Follow us on X and Instagram !

“The US Navy is considering a major redesign of its new aircraft carriers to better match President Donald Trump’s preferred aesthetic for the warships, according to seven current and former US officials familiar with the matter,” reported The Washington Post. ￭ “The review, which has not been previously reported, is in response to Trump’s concerns about the ‘look’ of the new Ford-class ships, where the tower is near the rear… The timing and extent of the Navy’s evaluation is unclear, with current and former officials cautioning that the service was concerned that such a change would require significant time and money.” ￭ The news comes as US aircraft carrier capacity is already stretched thin by the war on Iran, and Trump struggles to revive the lagging US shipbuilding industry.

🇮🇷🇺🇸| The Iranian Army has put a bounty reward for delivering an American soldier Commander-in-Chief of the Iranian Army, Maj. General Hatami, says a $30,000 reward for every American military aggressor, dead or alive. And… if a women were to hand over the American soldier, she will receive TWICE the reward. The weapon used to kill an American invading soldier will be purchased for twice its value, and they will receive a new weapon as well. @FotrosResistancee

🇸🇾 | The current reality in occupied Syria is becoming increasingly disturbing. What is emerging is not simply a political transition or a security crisis, but a struggle over Syria’s religious identity, cultural character, institutions, and social fabric. Under the Internationally wanted terrorist Julani-led authorities, Syria appears increasingly exposed to the influence of Turkey, Qatar, UAE, Saudi Arabia, america, and israeli entity, while Israeli forces continue to occupy and penetrate parts of southern Syria. From attacks against the Popular Mobilization Forces and the kidnapping of an Iraqi driver from the Nineveh Plain to Israeli incursions in Quneitra, Syria’s security environment has become deeply unstable. At the same time, reports of targeted killings, disappearances, attacks against minorities, torture in detention facilities, and attacks against figures considered rivals or opponents of the new authorities point toward a country where law, security, and accountability remain dangerously weak. The religious transformation is particularly alarming. In Latakia, an overwhelmingly Alawite province, a Turkish-based Salafi organization has reportedly moved to establish a mosque inside Latakia University, while plans have also been announced for a College of Sharia. Reports of Salafi clerics already operating inside the university and approaching Alawite students through religious outreach raise serious questions about whether Syria’s educational institutions are being turned into instruments of ideological transformation. The contrast is especially striking when university buildings, dormitories, and the needs of displaced Syrians remain unresolved. The situation surrounding Syria’s minorities is equally painful. Reports of the killing of Christian Nader Tannous in Homs, the alleged torture of Abdul Salam Akko in Hama Central Prison, and repeated reports of disappearances and attacks demonstrate the growing insecurity faced by ordinary Syrians. No community should have to wonder whether its religious identity, physical safety, or cultural existence is becoming negotiable under the new order. Even the holy shrine of Sayyida Zaynab (S) is reportedly facing attempts at ideological and administrative interference. Allegations that foreign liberal and Zionist-linked networks are seeking access to the shrine, its archives, treasury, and administration raise a fundamental question: who will determine the future identity of Syria’s sacred places, the Syrian people themselves or foreign networks operating through political and religious influence? The Sayyida Zaynab (A) shrine in Damascus has now become another important point of concern in the broader struggle over Syria’s religious and cultural identity. The issue is not simply the physical preservation of the shrine. It also concerns who will influence its administration, archives, religious-tourism policies, surrounding institutions, and ultimately the ideological character of one of the most important Shi’a holy sites in Syria. One organization that has publicly become involved in this process is UMAA, the Universal Muslim Association of America. UMAA’s own project describes its objective as supporting the renewal of the Sayyida Zaynab district, facilitating religious tourism, coordinating with Syrian ministries, addressing security and infrastructure concerns, and pursuing energy, healthcare, and other projects around the shrine. UMAA also publicly describes itself as a U.S.-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit with ECOSOC status at the United Nations. Separately, reporting published in December 2025 said that UMAA had held consultations with Syrian officials concerning the restoration and rehabilitation of the shrine, including discussions with current and former U.S. State Department officials. At the same time, Noor Zaidi, an assistant professor of history at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County, has become directly involved in the preservation and digitization of the shrine’s historical archives. 🔹@enemywatch +

#CentralSyria: Another young man falls victim to torture in Jolani prisons… The young man “Abdul Salam Abdul Hakim Akko,” age 24, from the Sunni community, was released after a full year of detention in the notorious Hama Central Prison. “Abdul Salam Akko” had also previously been detained under the former regime, and was released alive when that regime fell, but he was arrested again, this time by the #HTS-led General Securit militias. He was handed over to his family yesterday, August 14, 2026, in critical condition, suffering from paralysis as a result of the torture he was subjected to. It is worth noting that shocking testimonies from detainees released from Hama Central Prison have spoken of inmates being sexually assaulted with wooden implements by jailers in alJolani prisons.

#WesternSyria | Rural #Hama: Civilian from the Murshidi Sect Killed, Others Wounded in Bombing of Home in the Ghab Plain Aziz Mohammed Salloum, 52, a member of the Murshidi sect, was killed, and his sister, Wissam Salloum, 47, along with his three-year-old niece, Emily Salloum, were wounded when a gunman threw a bomb at their home in the village of al-Rasif, in the northern countryside of Hama, on the evening of Saturday, August 15, 2026. Eyewitnesses reported seeing the gunman enter the village on a motorcycle from the south before throwing the bomb at the victim’s house, located in the village’s southern section. They added that the assailant dismounted, threw the bomb, and then fled the scene in the direction he had come from, heading south. Neighbors of the victim, a civilian from the Murshidi sect, confirmed that he had spent most of his life dividing his time between Lebanon and Iraq, where he worked for years at a stone quarry in Lebanon. One neighbor said: “Here in al-Rasif, we all know that Aziz Mohammed Salloum’s family lived in Lebanon, and that Aziz was a simple, respectable man of good standing, known throughout the village for his fine character. He had nothing to do with politics, the military, or any armed group or faction. For years, he and his brothers lived and worked abroad.”

Statement by the *Gathering of Families of Child Martyrs in Lebanon* Against the Zionist Israeli Massacre in the southern Lebanese village of Ansar- August 15, 2026 The Gathering of Families of Child Martyrs in Lebanon condemns the new massacre perpetrated by the Israeli occupation forces at dawn today, 15 August 2026, against a family in the southern Lebanese town of Ansar. The massacre resulted in the killing of Ali Al-Hajj Hassan, Zeinab Nasser Al-Din, and their children Zahraa, Hassan, Hussein and Abbas. From the shared place of pain that unites us as fathers and mothers who have lost their children, we extend our deepest condolences to the martyrs' family. We affirm that their children are not numbers in a record of massacres. Each one of them had a face, a story, a dream, and a life that should have continued. We, the families of child martyrs, know what it means to have a child torn from our arms. We therefore cannot accept that the killing of Lebanese children becomes a scene that is repeated, only to be forgotten. We will not become accustomed to the killing of our children, nor will we allow their targeting to become normalized. From this position, we call on our people across Lebanon to stand in solidarity with the martyrs’ families, because the blood of a Lebanese child belongs to no one region over another. We also call on the Lebanese state to assume its full responsibilities, to document this massacre and all crimes targeting civilians and children, and to urgently refer them to regional and international human rights and judicial bodies, ensuring that evidence is preserved and that those responsible are pursued through all available legal paths. We call on the Lebanese authorities to take practical and firm measures to protect civilians, and to build a unified national position that safeguards Lebanon and its people's right to defend themselves in the face of brutal Israeli aggression, while preventing the enemy from exploiting any existing "understandings" or frameworks to justify the continued assault on the Lebanese people. We further call on the media to assume its ethical and professional responsibility by placing the issue of child martyrs at the forefront of its coverage and documenting their stories, names and faces. We also call for clear language condemning the criminal enemy responsible for killing children, rather than promoting its claims, even indirectly. We affirm that Lebanon and its people have an inherent right to defend themselves against aggression, and that this is first and foremost the responsibility of the state. Otherwise, the state would be relinquishing its sovereignty. We will not become accustomed to the killing of our children, and we will not allow them to be reduced to numbers. May the blood of our children become a force for uniting the hearts and will of all Lebanese people, in defense of human life, of Lebanon and of the future of every child in Lebanon.

Mujamma Haraket writes on X: In his most recent appearance on the “India and Global Left” program, Norman Finkelstein avers that Yahya Sinwar and the Hamas leaders in Gaza who undertook Tufan al-Aqsa were undertaking an impulsive “gamble” rather than a strategic operation. When the interviewer (correctly) observes that there are reasons to believe that the short-term goal was to free prisoners and the long-term objective was to halt regional normalization while galvanizing the Palestine issue globally, Finkelstein vehemently disagrees. Were Finkelstein to familiarize himself with the “Our Narrative” documents produced by Hamas or consider the various testimonies where figures ranging from Mahmoud Mardawi to Jasser al-Barghouti elaborated on Sinwar et al.’s modus operandi, perhaps he would not be so dismissive. Yet Finkelstein then insists that “like Nat Turner, who had only read the Bible” (a claim that is itself contravened by Christopher Tomlins’s recent scholarship on Turner), Sinwar was unlearned—and had, following the 2011 Shalit prisoner exchange which precipitated his return to the besieged Gaza Strip, but “gone from one prison to another”. According to Finkelstein, Sinwar was thus constitutionally incapable of political prudence, acting from rash and extruding compulsions alone. It is rather mystifying that someone who prides themselves on their granular research (and, it should be noted, has undoubtedly assiduously assayed the 2010 Mavi Marmara case and various human rights reports) is unaware of Sinwar’s well-established and arrayed literary record—as a writer, reader, and translator. Furthermore, Finkelstein argues that it is folly to focus on the resistance, as this merely bolsters the occupation’s misbegotten narrative that Tufan al-Aqsa was a war rather than a genocide. Finkelstein beseeches the interviewer: “Can you name me a single battle? You can’t as there were none.” However—and putting aside the issue that the categories of “wars” and “genocides” do not definitionally exclude one another (e.g., the 1994 Tutsi genocide occurred amidst a war)—a cursory review of the Palestinian resistance’s witness accounts is punctuated by references to the “Battle of Khan Younis” (Dec. 2023 - April 2024), what Abu Obeida called the “Battle of Rafah” (May-August 2024), and the “Battle of Shujaʿiyya” (Dec. 2023), to name but a few. These were, of course, conducted as guerrilla rather than conventional military battles. But to take the resistance’s operational and political history seriously neither entreats minimization of the occupation’s “dolus specialis” (genocidal intent) nor bestows parity upon the two parties.

Violence in 'New' Syria is not even sectarian anymore, it is drug-fuelled savagery directed at anyone defenceless or vulnerable. Remind you of another unlawful entity? Yeah me too.

#WesternSyria : Young man tortured after three days of detention in the #Latakia countryside, transferred to intensive care The young man “Mohammed Ghmeira,” a Civil Defense volunteer belonging to the Sunni sect, suffered severe bleeding in the head and abdomen after being detained by the directorate of al-Haffah district in the Latakia countryside. Details: A patrol stopped the young man on the pretext of a financial complaint, telling him, “We’ll take you with us to ask a few questions.” When his family learned of his arrest, they went to the al-Haffah district directorate and told them the young man was ill, asking that he not be beaten. They brought him his medication and received promises that he would not be beaten or tortured. Upon arriving at the police station, he told them: “Guys, don’t hit me, I have a bleeding disorder [hemophilia], don’t hit me” but one of the officers cursed him and struck him in the face, after which several terrorists at the station continued beating him on the head and abdomen. The young man remained detained at the station for three days, was never given his medication, and was in very bad condition after being beaten and tortured. A judge ordered his release, and his family rushed him directly to the hospital. While in the hospital, the young man was hallucinating and repeating: “I told him don’t hit me, I have a bleeding disorder, I told him…” The young man has internal bleeding and fell into a coma; he is in a state of clinical death in intensive care. His family reported that his heart stopped before doctors managed to resuscitate him. It is noted that brutal and inhumane torture continues in most of alJolani prisons and detention centers, with several hundred people (mostly from the Alawite sect and other minorities) killed and tortured inside al-Jolani prisons, which have come to be described as human slaughterhouses. Several shocking testimonies have been recorded of men being raped with objects by guards at Hama Central Prison. It is noted that the story of the young man “Mohammed Ghmeira” was circulated by media outlets and “journalists” loyal to the #STG because the young man belongs to the Sunni sect, while this same sectarian “journalists” stays silent when the victims of torture and killing belong to minorities, which points to the moral decline of Syrian media (as well as Saudi and Qatari media) and their departure from the noble goals of journalism. This news comes after the visit of the UN Secretary-General António Guterres (@antonioguterres) to Syria last month and condemned the torture crimes committed at Sednaya Prison during Assad’s era, yet he did not dare condemn the torture crimes in the alJolani prisons, despite being informed (or presumably informed) of the reports from the UN Human Rights Council’s Commission of Inquiry, which are documented with testimonies about torture and killing operations.
