2K views 3 weeks ago

,On November 29, the Ezzedine Al-Qassam Brigades, Hamas's armed wing, claimed responsibility for a shooting near Ariel in the West Bank. The attack targeted a bus carrying Israeli soldiers and settlers, leaving eight people injured, including three seriously. The assailant, 46-year-old Samir Muhammad Ahmad Hussein, ambushed the bus, shattering its windshield with over a dozen bullet holes. Israeli forces neutralised the assailant near the Ariel settlement. Hamas described the attack as a heroic operation. In Gaza, Israeli airstrikes killed at least 40 Palestinians, including casualties in the Nuseirat refugee camp and Beit Lahiya. Medics recovered 19 bodies from northern Nuseirat and more fatalities were reported across Gaza. Israeli military operations disrupted rescue efforts as tanks entered and withdrew from northern Nuseirat. Meanwhile, Hezbollah leader Naim Qassem declared a "great victory" in Lebanon following a ceasefire. He emphasised coordination with the Lebanese army to enhance defensive capabilities. Separately, the Israeli army reported targeting a Hezbollah rocket launcher in southern Lebanon, citing ceasefire violations. In Israel, IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi hinted at resignation after October 7 attack investigations, pledging accountability and personal decisions once the probe concludes. #israel #hezbollah #israelhezbollah #worldnews n18oc_world n18oc_crux CRUX is your daily video news guide to the big events that are shaping our world.

,Iran’s Foreign Minister Amir-Abdollahian has arrived in Islamabad, Pakistan’s foreign ministry confirmed on Monday, amid strained ties between the two neighbors over recent tit-for-tat strikes and days after gunmen killed nine Pakistanis in southeast Iran. The deceased Pakistanis, who had been working as laborers, were killed in Iran’s restive southeastern border area of Saravan on Saturday, according to relatives of the victims. The Saravan attack came a day after Pakistani and Iranian ambassadors returned to their posts after being recalled when both countries exchanged missile strikes last week at what they said were militant targets. The strikes were the highest-profile cross-border intrusions in recent years. However, both Iran and Pakistan quickly moved to de-escalate tensions following a telephonic conversation between their foreign ministers. On his arrival, the Iranian foreign minister was greeted by Pakistan’s additional foreign secretary for Afghanistan and West Asia, Rahim Hayat Qureshi, Iran’s envoy to Pakistan, and other officials. “Foreign Minister of Iran Abdollahian has arrived in Islamabad at the invitation of Foreign Minister Jalil Abbas Jilani,” Pakistan’s foreign office spokesperson, Mumtaz Zahra Baloch, said in a statement. “During the visit, Foreign Minister Abdollahian will hold in-depth talks with Foreign Minister Jilani and call on Prime Minister Anwaar ul Haq Kakar,” she added. The two foreign ministers are also scheduled to hold a joint press briefing after their meeting in Islamabad. Asked about the significance of the visit, Naghmana Hashmi, a former Pakistani diplomat, said it was important with regard to the recent developments and their possible impact on the diplomatic relations between the two countries. In the last few decades, she noted, both countries had seen a rise in militancy, which needed to be addressed at the highest level. “There have been some issues which have more to do with the overall geostrategic and geopolitical situation that has evolved, particularly in our neighborhood,” she told Arab News. “After the recent attacks, the two governments promptly established contact, initiating a hectic diplomatic effort, as we cannot afford to have either Iran or Pakistan open another front in the region.” Hashmi said any military action between the two neighbors would not only impact Pakistan but also extend consequences to Iran and the broader Middle East region. “It is important to sit down and discuss common concerns and find ways out to address them,” she added. Syed Muhammad Ali, a Pakistani security expert, said the visit would allow both countries to timely address bilateral issues, particularly the recent rise in militant attacks and the killing of Pakistani nationals in Saravan. “Pakistan expects Iran to timely identify those responsible and bring them to justice and ensure that such terrorist attacks neither affect the bilateral relations between Pakistan and Iran nor harm major regional economic, trade and connectivity projects which will benefit both nations,” he told Arab News. #pakistan #iran #iranvspakistan #middleeasttensions #pakistani #worldnews n18oc_world n18oc_crux CRUX is your daily video news guide to the big events that are shaping our world.

Pentagon Reveals Details On New US Strikes On Houthi Targets In Yemen | Gaza War Impact On Red Sea

,Space-based assets play a crucial role as the US contends with various threats in the Middle East. John Plumb, the assistant secretary of defense for space policy, emphasizes the essential nature of space in all US military missions. Recognizing this, US Central Command (CENTCOM) established SPACECENT in late 2022 as one of the first geographic commands to set up a Space Force component command. Plumb underscores the importance of Space Force providing necessary effects for military operations. While specific surveillance assets are not disclosed, the Department of Defense publicly acknowledges the use of airborne assets in protecting shipping under Operation Prosperity Guardian. Space-based assets likely contribute to intelligence on Houthi military capabilities in Yemen, including tracking their missiles. Missile warning, imagery, and intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance are highlighted as key capabilities provided by space assets. US forces launched strikes against the Houthis in Yemen on January 17 using Navy vessels, marking the fourth round of strikes in less than a week. CENTCOM states that the missiles posed an imminent threat to merchant vessels and US Navy ships. The US has been tracking Houthi-launched drones and missiles in Yemen, though specific details on tracking methods are not disclosed. Commercial ships can be tracked by satellite online, and commercial satellite imagery has offered insights into the damage caused by previous strikes. On January 16, the US military destroyed four anti-ship ballistic missile targets, prepared for launch. CENTCOM announced another Houthi attack on a commercial ship on January 17, leading to additional US strikes. The Pentagon Press Secretary, Air Force Maj. Gen. Patrick S. Ryder, affirms that CENTCOM has the authority to conduct dynamic strikes. The US is committed to protecting its forces and deterring future Houthi attacks. Similar to Air Forces Central (AFCENT) and Naval Forces Central (NAVCENT), Space Forces Central Command plays a vital role in responding to contingencies in the Middle East, reflecting its integral role in US military operations. #usmilitary #houthi #pentagon #middleeasttensions #usmilitarypower #worldnews n18oc_world n18oc_crux CRUX is your daily video news guide to the big events that are shaping our world.

Taiwan Election Results | China Watches Counting In Taiwan Presidential & Parliamentary Elections

,Taiwan is holding presidential and parliamentary elections on Saturday, closely monitored by China, which considers the island a Chinese province despite Taiwan's rejection of Beijing's sovereignty claims. Taiwan, having struggled for decades to establish democracy and end authoritarian rule, will see three main parties competing: the ruling Democratic Progressive Party (DPP), the Kuomintang (KMT), and the Taiwan People's Party (TPP), established in 2019. Currently, the DPP holds a majority in parliament with 63 seats, while the KMT has 38 and the TPP has five. The DPP advocates for Taiwan's separate identity from China, rejecting Beijing's claims and emphasizing the right of Taiwan's people to determine their future. The KMT, which fled to Taiwan in 1949 after losing a civil war with the Communists, seeks close ties with China but denies being pro-Beijing. The TPP aims to re-engage with China. Other smaller parties, such as the pro-independence Taiwan Statebuilding Party and the overtly pro-China New Party, are also participating in the parliamentary elections. However, their chances of securing seats are limited. Three presidential candidates are in the running: DPP's Vice President Lai Ching-te (also known as William), KMT's New Taipei City Mayor Hou Yu-ih, and TPP's former Taipei Mayor Ko Wen-je. Vice President Lai has consistently led opinion polls leading up to the election. New polls have been restricted from publication since January 3, in adherence to election law. The newly elected president will take office on May 20, serving a four-year term with the possibility of a maximum of two consecutive terms. The president holds key roles such as commander-in-chief of the military, appointing the premier who forms the cabinet, and signing legislation into law. #taiwan #taiwanelection #taiwannews #taiwanelections2024 #worldnews n18oc_world n18oc_crux CRUX is your daily video news guide to the big events that are shaping our world.

Watch 1st Commercial Moon Mission Take Off | Astrobotic Launches Peregrine Lander Via Vulcan Centaur

CRUX check_circle

1 views 11 months ago

,The countdown is underway for the highly anticipated launch of the "Peregrine" lunar lander, a pioneering mission by the Pittsburgh-based company Astrobotic. Scheduled for liftoff at 2:18 a.m. ET on Monday, the uncrewed Peregrine lander will ride atop the United Launch Alliance's cutting-edge Vulcan Centaur rocket from Cape Canaveral, Florida. This mission is poised to achieve several historic milestones. Firstly, it marks the inaugural launch of the next-generation Vulcan Centaur booster. Secondly, if successful, Astrobotic could secure the title of the first private company to execute a controlled, or "soft," landing on the moon. NASA, a key collaborator in this venture through its Commercial Lunar Payload Services program, has reported an 85% chance of favorable weather conditions for the scheduled launch. A successful landing would not only represent a significant achievement for Astrobotic but also a groundbreaking moment for the burgeoning commercial space industry. Thus far, only the space agencies of four countries—the United States, the former Soviet Union, China, and India—have accomplished lunar landings, with no private enterprise having achieved this feat. Despite being a private initiative, the Peregrine mission receives sponsorship from NASA, emphasizing the collaboration between governmental and private sectors in space exploration. The mission is part of NASA's broader strategy to return astronauts to the moon, utilizing the Commercial Lunar Payload Services program to contract private firms for transporting scientific instruments and equipment to the lunar surface. Joel Kearns, a deputy associate administrator at NASA headquarters, highlighted the agency's belief in leveraging entrepreneurship and innovation within the American industrial base through initiatives like the Commercial Lunar Payload Services program. The success of the Peregrine mission could further open up access to space exploration beyond traditional government and military entities, paving the way for increased involvement of private enterprises in future lunar endeavors. #nasa #vulcan #moonlaunch #vulcanrocket #vulcancentaur #astrobotic #moonmission #worldnews n18oc_world n18oc_crux CRUX is your daily video news guide to the big events that are shaping our world.

UN Security Council Passes "Diluted Resolution" To Boost Gaza Aid After US Abstains | Israel Hamas

CRUX check_circle

1 views 11 months ago

,The UN Security Council adopts a resolution on Dec 22, urging the acceleration of humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip amidst widespread reports of hunger. However, it falls short of demanding an immediate suspension of hostilities between Israel and Hamas. The resolution passes with a 13-0 vote, with the United States and Russia abstaining. Hamas considers the resolution insufficient, while Israel suggests the UN should prioritize the release of remaining hostages in the Palestinian enclave. The Palestinian representative to the UN views the vote as a positive step but emphasizes the need for an immediate ceasefire. Israel's military issues an order for residents of Al-Bureij in central Gaza to relocate south immediately, indicating a shift in focus for the ground assault that has caused extensive damage to the Strip. A UN report released Thursday highlights that over half a million people in Gaza are facing starvation due to inadequate food supplies since the beginning of the Israel-Hamas conflict. Israeli officials report 1,139 casualties in the Hamas-led attacks on southern Israel on October 7, including 695 Israeli civilians, including 36 children. The health ministry in the Hamas-run enclave indicates that over 20,000 people have died in Israel's subsequent assault on the Gaza Strip. #unsc #unitednations #unsecuritycouncil #israelhamaswar #israel #hamas #worldnews n18oc_world n18oc_crux CRUX is your daily video news guide to the big events that are shaping our world.
