Drugs smuggled into #Syria - weapons smuggled into Lebanon.

The common denominator? Hezbollah.

The Lebanese Army seized drugs, incl. over 200,000 Captagon pills, during an attempt to smuggle them via Yabrud corridor in Syria.

They also seized rockets & 24 kg of TNT being smuggled into Lebanon from Qusseir countryside.

This comes in addition to 524,000 Captagon pills seized by Syrian Customs in 2 failed smuggling attempts from Lebanon via Jdeidet Yabous border crossing in less than 48h.

Hezbollah is trying to rearm while facing its worst financial squeeze in years, according to multiple sources, as its main backer - Iran - comes under mounting US pressure.

Meanwhile, the Bekaa (legal & illegal) border crossings continue to serve both purposes: a lifeline for Hezbollah, facilitating drugs flowing into Syria & weapons flowing into Lebanon.

I’m still trying because my children still need me to.

We lost our home, our work, and our stability. After years of displacement, I’m still struggling to provide the most basic things for my family.

I’m not asking for luxury. I’m asking for a chance to keep going.

If you can’t donate, please share this.

Really, it hurts... painful beyond what you can imagine. 💔

To see the world live its life, and you enjoy comfort and safety, while my family and I do not ask you for the impossible, and we do not want well-being or a luxurious life; All we asked for is some food that satisfy our hunger, and help with which we can pay the rent of a house that shelters us and preserves what is left of our dignity.

We knocked on your doors, wrote to you from the ache of our hearts, and raised our voices to anyone who hears us, but we are tired of waiting, and we are tired more than feeling that our suffering means nothing to anyone.

Nothing breaks the heart like you need the simplest rights of life, then you have to beg for them, as if you are asking for the impossible.

So, forgive me... I won't blame anyone anymore, and I won't ask anyone to feel us against his will. We have left the matter to God, for He knows our hunger, knows our fear, and knows the tears we hide from people's eyes.

Everyone may abandon us, and all doors may be closed in our faces, but God's door never closes.

God is sufficient for us and the best deputy, He alone knows what we are going through, and He alone is able to repair our hearts after all this disappointment. 💔🤲

ضمن العمليات الأمنية الاستباقية، فكّك جهاز الاستخبارات العامة، بالتعاون مع قوى الأمن الداخلي، خلية مرتبطة بتنظيم داعش في منطقة الحولة بريف حمص، وأحبط مخططات إرهابية كانت تستهدف دور العبادة ودوريات لقوى الأمن الداخلي.

وأسفرت العملية عن القبض على اثنين من أفراد الخلية، وهما المدعوَين (أ.ج)، و(م.ع)، وضبط عبوتين ناسفتين كانتا معدّتين للاستخدام في تنفيذ أعمال إرهابية.

وكشفت التحقيقات عن تولي المقبوض عليهما مهام استلام ونقل العبوات المتفجرة لصالح التنظيم الإرهابي، إلى جانب مهام رصد دور العبادة ودوريات الأمن الداخلي، ضمن مخططات تخريبية تهدف إلى إثارة الفتن وزعزعة الأمن والاستقرار في المنطقة.

كما أظهرت التحقيقات تورط أحد أفراد الخلية في محاولة تفخيخ سكة للقطار، حيث أُلقي القبض عليه بالجرم المشهود أثناء محاولته زرع العبوة.

وتواصل الجهات المختصة تحقيقاتها لكشف وملاحقة كامل أفراد الخلية والوقوف على ارتباطاتها وأبعاد نشاطها، تمهيداً لاتخاذ الإجراءات القانونية بحق المتورطين.

First #ISIS cell officially busted in Houla (NW. #Homs).

The cell was planning attacks vs Security forces, places of worship to trigger sectarian strife & sabotage operations.

One of the members was caught red-handed while attempting to detonate a railway track.

2 IEDs concealed in food containers were seized.

This is a rare confirmation of IS presence in area of Houla & follows a claimed assassination near Waer district of a Shiite former Regime fighter in November 2025.

7 workers from nearby Alawite villages were also killed in a shooting targeting a mini-bus in the area last week, though no link to #IS has been established so far.

[Qalaat Al Mudiq @QalaatAlMudiq]

Today marks the anniversary of #ISIS "teleportation" - the day mappers lost the plot.

On 9th October 2017, an IS column suddenly crossed the heavily Regime-held, fortified As-Saan corridor (NE. #Hama countryside) with 20+ vehicles, incl. 2-3 tanks, facing no opposition from Regime or Russian Air Force.

They crossed precisely at Wadi Azeeb.

IS immediately launched attacks & seized several villages from Rebels, creating a pocket between Rebel & Regime-held areas.

In reality, it was a Regime/Russian operation to transfer the last irreducible IS fighters from the Uqayribat pocket into Rebel-held territory, as a Trojan horse in the prelude to Abu Duhur Offensive.

Uqayribat pocket, which contained 100s of battle-hardened IS fighters& their relatives, had been besieged by pro-Assad forces for months.

Even after capturing Uqayribat itself in early September, Regime was still struggling to reduce the pocket due to fierce IS resistance.

That cynical strategy - which came just after #HTS captured Abu Dali from Regime - was simple: let 2 enemies fight & exhaust each other, killing 2 birds with one stone: weakening Rebels & finishing off Uqayribat pocket.

IS surprise assault triggered an HTS-led counter-offensive that retook in 2 weeks most of the villages initially seized by IS.

Then came the second act.

On 24th October 2017, just as the IS pocket was on the verge of being fully reduced, Regime launched its own assault against Rebels, backed by Russian airstrikes - Russian Air Force had already bombed HTS during its fight against IS.

Pro-Regime forces would take Abu Duhur Airbase on 20th January 2018 after a 88-day offensive while last IS fighters who managed to sneak into Idlib countryside mass-surrendered to Rebels (in Khuwayn) on February 13 - 4 months after their transfer.

Below is a map from a local pro-Assad channel that didn't exactly pull any punches - the initial IS move is pretty clear 👇

Its October and Syria has gone pink

Buildings are lit up pink, health centers are offering free screenings, and the Ministry of Health has launched the national campaign for early detection of breast cancer under the slogan "فحص أبكر.. أمل أكبر" (Earlier screening, greater hope).

Even President al-Sharaa wore a pink tie in a recent appearance.

It’s a small thing, but it was nice to see patients and their families get that bit of recognition.

[Caolan @CaolanReports]

Putin is trying to force Ukraine to surrender territory. Meanwhile his soldiers are the ones surrendering. 250 POWs and counting. Bullshit vs reality.

[Caolan @CaolanReports]

There are russian airplanes over Kramatorsk right now dropping 40 glide bombs every day. Today they killed 33 innocent people. These are huge weapons never designed for civilian areas. Ukraine needs air defense to shoot down those planes & save thousands of innocent lives.

[Special Kherson Cat 🐈🇺🇦 @bayraktar_1love]

A Ukrainian FPV drone from DIU’s Artan unit ambushes a Russian soldier, waiting in a position until he comes into view before taking off and striking him.

A single drone crew can deploy dozens of such ambushes along movement routes and monitor them remotely from a control station.

The crew doesn’t need to constantly operate each drone and can carry out other combat missions while they wait. Once enemy movement is detected, an operator takes control of the waiting drone and carries out the strike.
