In support of our steadfast Palestinian people in Gaza and in reinforcement of their courageous and honorable resistance, at 3:30 PM on Sunday, December 17, 2023, fighters of the Islamic Resistance targeted the gathering of enemy vehicles and soldiers in the vicinity of the occupied Lebanese village of Hunin with appropriate weapons, resulting in direct injuries.

Latest Updates On Yemen, 17 December 2023

According to statements made by Lieutenant General Mohammed Al-Qadiri, the commander of the Yemeni Coastal Defense Forces, the Ansar Allah movement carried out a missile operation against the MSC Alanya ship in the west of Hanish Island. He stated that our objective is to prevent the movement of ships towards Israel, not to sink them. However, we also have suitable weapons to sink them if needed. If the Israelis do not respond to demands for the cessation of aggression against the Gaza Strip, a third phase will come, which will be difficult for them.

WATCH: Interesting speech by the brother of Alon Lulu Shamriz, one of the 3 israeli prisoners who was killed by friendly fire:

“My brother Shamriz & companions, who were killed by the treacherous [israeli] airstrike, deserve special attention: You came from the tunnel to the open air, witnessed freedom, and stood against a ridiculous chain of command, an irresponsible regime [israel]. You overcame everything, needing no one. You did everything right. Alon, I promise that your death was not in vain; we will rise and shake the country [lol]. We ensure that your name becomes a symbol of courage, a symbol of revolution. We won't forget those who betrayed us on the 7th day; we won't forgive. We will pursue the officials. They will regret it”

It is the duty of every insurgent not to forget and forgive those who betrayed, pursue the officials responsible for our tragedy, and make them regret.
