Israel has launched an invasion of southern Lebanon.
The Lebanese Army is offering no resistance and withdrawing from the border.

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) states:
"In parallel with the IDF's operations in Operation Roaring Lion, IDF soldiers are now operating in southern Lebanon and are stationed at several points near the border as part of a reinforced forward defense.
The IDF is working to create an additional layer of security for residents of northern Israel. The IDF is conducting targeted strikes against Hezbollah terrorist infrastructure to eliminate threats and prevent infiltration attempts into Israeli territory.
The Hezbollah terrorist organization has decided to attack Israel on behalf of the Iranian regime, and it will bear the consequences of its actions. The IDF will not allow harm to come to Israeli civilians and will continue to act to protect the State of Israel and its citizens."

Trump says Keir Starmer is no Winston Churchill

President Donald Trump has told reporters Sir Keir Starmer is "no Winston Churchill" in the row over the refusal to permit the use of UK bases for the initial US-Israel strikes on Iran.

The US had sought to use the military base in Diego Garcia on the Chagos Islands, but the PM refused, only agreeing to the US request to use British military bases subsequently for "defensive" strikes on Iranian missile sites.

Speaking to journalists in the Oval Office, Trump said he was "not happy with the UK" over the decision, which led to US planes "flying many extra hours".

Royal Navy warship HMS Dragon has been now sent to bolster security at a British air base in Cyprus, after it was hit by drone strikes.

I'm already fed up with this war -
it should have been sorted out at the UN by diplomatic means.

The wars in Iraq and Afghanistan never solved anything -
why should this war be any different?

Israel still getting hammered on the 6th day:

How international news outlets report under Israel’s military censor during wartime

Every reporter in Israel — and every member of the public — is subject to a military censor. On national security grounds, the regulation authorizes the censor to prohibit reporting or broadcasting any material that could reveal sensitive information or pose a threat to the country’s security interests.

This is particularly sensitive during wartime, where the military censor has made clear that broadcasting any images that reveal the location of interceptor missiles or military sites hit by enemy projectiles is forbidden, especially in live broadcasts.

The general order of the Chief Censor from 1988 states that “every person who prints or publishes printed matter or a publication concerning state security… must submit it to the censor before printing or publishing it.” The order clarified a regulation that has existed since Israel’s founding.

Crucially, it does not give the censor any editorial control over CNN’s coverage at all. It does allow them to make sure no sensitive information is unintentionally revealed. CNN has been transparent about this process when we go through it.

Israel is not the only country that puts restrictions on news media in times of war. In Ukraine, a country under martial law since Russia’s full-scale invasion four years ago, there are strict rules about reporting a withdrawal by Ukrainian troops, for instance, or details of any significant movement of armor or weapons towards the front-line.

Normally, the international media would only deal with the censor on embeds with the Israel Defense Forces (IDF). Reporting teams would shoot video and allow the censor to review the footage before it airs, a standard practice for embeds with other militaries as well. CNN has reached agreements with the US military before joining missions or seeing certain training exercises.

However, the rules have tightened in this war.

There’s no doubt that the Israeli public has posted videos of missile intercepts and more during this war. A quick search of social media and Telegram channels reveals plenty of these videos. But the censor focuses more on the international media, and it has tightened the restrictions since the war began.

After the Hamas-led attack on October 7, 2023, when Hamas launched thousands of rockets at Israel, there was no problem showing intercepts in the skies over southern and central Israel. Now the censor has prohibited live broadcasts showing the interception of Iranian ballistic missiles, even as the vast majority have been stopped.

To be clear, international news networks don’t submit every piece of video to the military censor for review. Far from it. CNN has not submitted any video to the censor for review since the war started on Saturday morning. But the censor does prohibit us from putting out live broadcasts of intercepts that could reveal the accuracy of Iranian ballistic missiles or the location of interceptor missile arrays.

Israeli far-right Minister of National Security Itamar Ben Gvir has turned the apolitical military censor into a talking point, vowing to “act with severity and zero tolerance” against international media that violate the censorship rules.

In a joint statement with the Minister of Communications, Ben Gvir said police have been dispatched to several locations as “suspects have been detained, incidents investigated, and even arrests made in cases where suspicion arise of violating the guidelines.”

“Anyone who endangers Israel’s citizens in the name of ‘journalistic reporting’ will face a determined and tough police force,” Ben Gvir said. “No concessions, no games.”

The muzzies are making up lies and posting them on Facebook:

The body count is apocalyptic. Russian intelligence has released a bombshell report confirming that Israel has suffered catastrophic, irreversible losses in the first 72 hours of Iran's full-scale retaliation — and the damage is far worse than Netanyahu has admitted to the public.
According to the leaked Russian assessment (verified by multiple intelligence sources):

Dimona nuclear reactor — Israel has completely lost operational access to its most critical nuclear site, the heart of its undeclared nuclear arsenal
11 top nuclear scientists killed in precision Iranian strikes on Dimona and related facilities
6 senior IDF generals eliminated in targeted assassinations and missile barrages
198 air force officers wiped out — including senior pilots and command staff
462 soldiers killed in ground operations and base attacks
32 Mossad agents slaughtered in covert operations gone wrong

Total elite casualties in just three days: over 700 high-value personnel — a blow that could cripple Israel's military and nuclear capability for years.
The images are haunting: soldiers carrying flag-draped coffins, Netanyahu and Defense Minister Gallant sitting in stunned silence as the numbers come in.
Social media is in absolute panic mode:

“Dimona is gone? Israel just lost its nuclear insurance policy in 3 days”
“700 elite deaths – this is the end of Israeli military supremacy”
“Russia confirming what Netanyahu is hiding – the bloodbath is insane”
“Iran is winning the war – Israel is collapsing faster than anyone predicted”
“From invincible to decimated in 72 hours – history books will remember this as the day Israel broke”

Netanyahu has remained silent on the Dimona loss, but sources say emergency war cabinet meetings are happening behind closed doors and the country is preparing for the worst.
Iran is celebrating openly. The IRGC called it “divine justice.” The world is watching in horror as Israel's military backbone snaps in real time.
This is no longer a skirmish. This is the moment the balance of power in the Middle East shifted forever.

Iran has missile cities with trap doors to launch missiles.
They don't need mobile launchers.

Some launch sites are covered by heavy doors built into the ground. As soon as the launch order comes,
the doors will open and the missiles will be fired within seconds.
