Hezbollah built tunnels about 100 meters from UNIFIL in south Lebanon. They took years to build and were used to fire anti-tank missiles at Israeli civilians across the border the past year until Israeli soldiers invaded southern Lebanon. It's incomprehensible that UNIFIL didn't

I just saw indescribable, raw footage of Hamas’ massacre along with 100 other international journalists, provided by Israeli authorities. Here are the notes I took: 1: Hamas terrorist screaming Allah Akhbah as he frantically tries to behead a dead man with a shovel.

So many more scenes but I hope you get the gist. The authorities asked is not to film the screening out of respect for the relatives of the Israeli victims. If anyone has any doubt about what happened, I truly don’t know what to say anymore.

7: Scores of dead people on the road after Hamas executed them in their cars. Yelling Allahu Akhbah. 8: Hamas terrorist calling his parents: “I killed 10 Jews with my own hands. I’m using the dead Jewish woman’s phone to call you now.” The mother says “May god protect you.”

3: Hamas terrorists enter a house, where a small girl is seen hiding under the table. After some talking back and forth they shoot and kill her as she hides under the table. Hard to say how old she is but looks like 7-9 years old.

2: A father and two sons (roughly 7 & 9) running for their lives in their underwear into what appears to be a bomb shelter with an open entrance. A Hamas terrorist throws a hand grenade into shelter, killing the father, and badly injuring the two sons who run back into the house

2 continued: The two sons are screaming for their dad, saying they are gonna die. A Hamas terrorist casually and calmly takes a bottle of water from the family’s fridge and drinks it as the two boys weep.

We saw Hezbollah’s tunnels in southern Lebanon today. They took years to build, were used to launch anti-tank missiles at Israeli civilians across the border and they were located some 100 meter from UNIFIL. It’s impossible that UNIFIL didn’t know about this.

I went to the Gazan side of the Kerem Shalom border crossing today to see for myself the nearly 1,000 trucks’ worth of aid waiting to be picked up by the UN. Stay tuned 📰

An obscene amount of aid is waiting to get picked up on Gazan side of the border with Israel. 950 trucks to be precise. Why are international NGOs not picking it up when they warn - every single day - about starvation in Gaza? @WFP

🧵 I joined @piersmorgan to explain why Al Jazeera journalist Anas Al Sharif was a Hamas supporter who celebrated terror attacks against civilian Jews and Israelis. I debated Anas’ colleague from Al Jazeera, Jamal, who - surprise surprise - is also a Hamas propagandist and an

To the left; Al Mayaden journalist in Lebanon telling civilians in northern Israel: We are sending drones your way. Run. May you all die: To the right: Same journalist doing “serious” reporting. If he’s killed tomorrow, he’ll be included in data over journalist casualties.

Long 🧵 Israel killed Al Jazeera journalist Anas Al Sharif along with 4 other journalists in Gaza on Monday. But a closer look at Al-Sharif, the most popular of the 4, reveals his deep support for Hamas, outright glorification of terror attacks, close ties with Hamas members, and
