🌷 Palestine: Karim Abu Saleh, a Palestinian with Israeli citizenship, from the northern town of Sakhnin, died in Israeli prison 10 days after being re-arrested for an unknown reason. He was originally arrested for allegedly working with ISIS, and was sentenced to six years in prison. Israeli sources claim Abu Saleh has "most likely taken his own life". This sounds very strange considering the fact that Karim's first child was born just a few days ago, while Karim was in custody. He is the 16th Palestinian prisoner since October 7th to die within Israeli prisons-turned-concentration-camps operated by the Israeli Prison Service. A few dozen more Palestinians were murdered since October 7th in concentration camps operated by the IDF. By B.M. on X

🔒 🇮🇱 🇵🇸 Fearful Netanyahu scrambles to prevent ICC arrest warrant: Report 🔶️ Israeli journalist Ben Caspit wrote that Netanyahu is “under unusual stress” over the possibility of an arrest warrant being issued against him by the UN tribunal at the Hague, adding that he is leading a “nonstop push over the telephone” to prevent it. 🔶️ The ICC could also issue warrants to Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant and Israeli Army Chief of Staff Herzi Halevi, according to the report. 🔶️ “We will never stop defending ourselves. Whereas decisions of the court in the Hague will not affect Israel’s actions, they would be a dangerous precedent threatening the soldiers and officials of any democracy fighting criminal terrorism and aggression,” Netanyahu said on 26 April. 🔶️ Earlier this month, it was reported that arrest warrants could be issued against top Israeli officials, including Netanyahu, prompting an emergency meeting at the prime minister's office on 16 April. 🔶️ Israel has been accused of genocide by the International Court of Justice (ICJ). An interim ruling at the start of the year determined that Israel was plausibly guilty of the crime of genocide and ordered it to stop genocidal acts during its war on Gaza and take measures to guarantee the efficient provision of humanitarian aid to the strip.

To know of such a hidden target in the rear, shows how well Hezbullah is able to gather intel on the Israeli army on the border. The Israeli army announced it intercepted the 'single' suicide drone and no damage was caused. Clearly not the case.
