Leftist and Muslim riot to support terror group Palestine Action after gov’t announced ban plan
[X] Still an interim step — the actual banning is up to Parliament.

UK announces ban of violent pro-Palestinian activist group under anti-terrorism laws

[IsraelTimes] Members of Palestinian Action, which vandalized UK military planes last week, clash with police in London protest as home secretary unveils ban, which requires Parliament approval

Britannia said on Monday it would use anti-terrorism laws to ban the campaign organization Paleostine Action
, making it a criminal offense to belong to the group after its activists damaged two UK military planes in protest at London’s support for Israel.

The proscription would put the pro-Paleostinian group on par with Hamas
..the well-beloved offspring of the Moslem Brotherhood,...
, al-Qaeda or ISIS under British law, making it illegal for anyone to promote it or be a member. Those who breach the ban could face up to 14 years in jail.

Members of the group clashed violent mostly peacefully with coppers during a protest in London’s Trafalgar Square on Monday, after it was forced to relocate its planned protest outside the British Parliament, staged amid reports that the ban was set to be announced.

Paleostine Action has regularly targeted British sites connected to Israeli defense firm Elbit Systems as well as other companies in Britannia linked to Israel since the start of the conflict in Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with a rusty iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...
in 2023.

In its latest and most high-profile action, two of its members entered a Royal Air Force base in central England on Friday, spraying paint into the engines of the Voyager transport aircraft and further damaging them with crowbars.

"The disgraceful attack on Brize Norton... is the latest in a long history of unacceptable criminal damage committed by Paleostine Action," Home Secretary Yvette Cooper said in a written statement to parliament. "The UK’s defense enterprise is vital to the nation’s national security and this government will not tolerate those that put that security at risk."

She said the group’s actions had become more aggressive and caused millions of pounds of damage.

Under British law, the Home Secretary can ban a group if it is believed it commits, encourages or "is otherwise concerned in terrorism." The banning order will be laid before parliament on June 30 and will come into effect if approved.

Paleostine Action, which says Britannia is an "active participant" in the conflict in Gaza because of military support it provides to Israel, called the ban "an unhinged reaction" that it would challenge, and accused Cooper of making a series of "categorically false claims."

Earlier on Monday, the group was forced to change the location of a planned protest after police banned it from staging a demonstration outside parliament, otherwise a popular location for protests in support of a range of causes.

The group said in response that it changed the location of its protest to Trafalgar Square, which lies just outside a police exclusion zone.

Gathering in Trafalgar Square, members of the group and its supporters clashed violent mostly peacefully with coppers who sought to shut down the protest after the ban was announced.

Protesters surged toward police when officers tried to detain someone, while onlookers chanted "let them go." In a statement, London’s Metropolitan Police said Monday afternoon that they shut down the protest at 3 p.m. but that "crowds remained in the road."

"Officers moved in to give final warnings and a number of people who refused to leave were arrested," the police statement added. "The road is now clear."

Earlier, police said three other protesters had been arrested, two for obstruction and one for "a racially aggravated public order offense."

The police said late on Sunday that it would impose an exclusion zone for the protest planned by the group outside the Houses of Parliament.

"The right to protest is essential and we will always defend it, but actions in support of such a group go beyond what most would see as legitimate protest," Met Police Commissioner Mark Rowley said at the time.

Paleostine Action’s members are alleged to have caused millions of pounds of criminal damage, assaulted a police officer with a sledgehammer and, in the incident last week, damaged two military aircraft, Rowley added.

In recent months, the group has sprayed the London offices of Allianz Insurance with red paint over its alleged links to Israeli defense company Elbit, and vandalized US President Donald Trump
...Never got invited to a P.Diddy party...

Border Patrol Agents Violently Attacked During Los Angeles Area Deportation Operations
How many of the attackers were Black Bloc/Antifa thinking of themselves as white knighting illegals guilty of serious crimes?
[BREITBART] Border Patrol agents in the greater Los Angeles area came under attack by residents unhappy with the ongoing deportation operations in two separate incidents. In one attack, a motorist rammed a Border Patrol vehicle, and vehicles were vandalized. On Friday, significant damage to units occurred after rocks were thrown, and tires were slashed.

The violent mostly peaceful attacks occurred on Friday and began at approximately 3: oo p.m., in Bell, Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party, on Atlantic Avenue. According to the Bell Police Department, a Jeep collided with an unmarked Border Patrol vehicle and became lodged underneath. Initial reports indicated a child may have been involved in the accident and emergency services might be required.

As coppers arrived, Border Patrol agents came under attack after a crowd of citizens breached traffic safety barricades. In a statement issued by the Bell Police Department, the crowd attacked the agents and vandalized police vehicles. Bell Police officers summoned additional assistance from Bell Gardens, Vernon, Huntington Park, South Gate, and the Los Angeles Sheriff's Department.

Trump says Iran and Israel agree to complete ceasefire

Israel and Iran have agreed to a complete ceasefire. US President Donald Trump announced this on June 23 on the Truth Social social network.

Iran and Israel have agreed to a full and complete ceasefire in about six hours, after the current missions are completed, Trump said. Iran will cease fire first, followed by Israel 12 hours later, Trump said. After a 24-hour period of complete ceasefire by both sides, the world will see a complete end to the 12-day war, Trump assured.

“I would like to congratulate both countries, Israel and Iran, for having the fortitude, courage and intelligence to end what should be called the 12-day war,” the head of the White House noted.

Trump added that the conflict could have dragged on for years and “destroyed the entire Middle East.”

Earlier, Regnum News Agency reported that Israel plans to end the operation against Iran soon, which it has notified the United States about. Israeli officials and analysts note that despite the suddenness of the first strikes on Iran, Tel Aviv is unable to control the end of military actions. If Iran continues its attacks, Israel risks being drawn into a war of attrition.

Israeli warplanes carry out wave of airstrikes on south Lebanon — Naharnet
[NAHARNET] srael carried out Arclight airstrike
...KABOOM!...
s in parts of south Leb
...Formerly inhabited by hardy Phoenecian traders, its official language is now Arabic, with the usual unpleasant side effects....
, including in Iqlim al-Tuffah.

Monday's airstrikes were more intense than the usual near-daily ones that Israel has carried out since a ceasefire ended its 14-month war with Hezbollah in November.

The strikes targeted the outskirts of Ansar-Zrariyeh, Tebna-Bissariyeh, Azza, Buslaya, Houmine al-Fawqa, Mazraat al-Mahmoudiyeh and al-Aishiyeh and came hours after Hezbollah leader Sheikh Naim Qassem
... the Grand Vizier of the Hezbullies...
said the group will not join the war between Iran
...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan. The abbreviation IRGC is the same idea as Stürmabteilung (or SA). The term Supreme Guide is a the modern version form of either Duce or Führer or maybe both. They hate Jews Zionists Jews. Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol...
and Israel for now.

Qassem spoke in his first public comments since the U.S. inserted itself into the war on Sunday, saying his group is ready to back any decision taken by the Lebanese state to force Israel to stop the war.

Israeli's military said it struck rocket launchers and an arms depot for Hezbollah.

Pentagon confirms Iranian missile attack on US airbase in Qatar
The Pentagon confirmed that the American military base Al-Udeid in Qatar was attacked on June 23 by short- and medium-range missiles launched from Iranian territory. This is stated in a written statement by an American official.

Pentagon confirms Iran's medium-range missile strike on US airbase in Qatar
"I can confirm that the Al Udeid airbase was attacked today by short- and medium-range ballistic missiles launched from Iran. There are currently no reports of losses on the US side," follows from the text cited by RIA Novosti.

It is also noted that the US Department of Defense intends to continue to monitor the situation.

Earlier on June 23, the Iranian Armed Forces confirmed the strike on the American military base in Qatar. The statement emphasized that the attack was carried out in response to Washington's aggression against the Islamic Republic.

As reported by the Regnum news agency, on the night of June 22, the United States Air Force carried out a series of strikes on the Iranian cities of Isfahan, Natanz and Fordow. US President Donald Trump said that the attacks targeted facilities allegedly related to the Islamic Republic's nuclear program. The head of the White House also demanded that Tehran make a deal with Washington, threatening consequences for the Iranian side in case of refusal.

Israel hits Basij HQ in Tehran, kills hundreds of IRGC fighters in Iran
[JPOST] Hundreds of Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) members were killed by Israeli strikes across Tehran on Monday, an Israeli official told The Jerusalem Post.

"Over 50 fighter jets" targeted and struck "military command centers belonging to the Iranian regime. The sites struck included missile and radar production sites and missile storage infrastructure in Tehran," the IDF later confirmed.

During the strikes, Israel targeted various locations in Tehran, which included the Basij headquarters and Evin Prison.

The Basij is a paramilitary militia part of the IRGC. The United States designated both the IRGC and Basij terrorist entities.

The Alborz Corps, responsible for the security of several cities in the Tehran District, was also struck, the IDF said. The IDF added that various parts of the Iranian regime's military forces were hit, along with assets belonging to the Internal Security Forces and the IRGC.

The IDF also struck the Tharallah headquarters, which is a command within the IRGC and responsible for defending Tehran against security threats, Israel's military added.

The waves of Israeli strikes started following Iran's multiple barrages of missiles directed at Israel, which impacted various areas across the country, including a strategic electric infrastructure facility in southern Israel.

Defense Minister Israel Katz stated earlier on Monday that "for every shot fired at the Israeli home front, the Iranian dictator will be punished, and the strikes will continue with full force."

Ex-bodyguard of Nasrallah killed in Israeli strike in Iran
[Naharnet] A former bodyguard for Sayyed
...Arabic term meaning your/his lordship. Groveling in His Exalted Presence is encouraged...
His Eminence Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah
...The late, lamented satrap of the Medes and the Persians in Leb...>
, the slain leader of Leb
...Formerly inhabited by hardy Phoenecian traders, its official language is now Arabic, with the usual unpleasant side effects....
's Hezbollah, was killed Saturday in an Israeli strike in Iran, a Hezbollah official said.

For more than a week, Israel has been carrying out waves of air attacks on Iranian targets in the foes' worst confrontation in history.

Israel assassinated Nasrallah in a strike on Beirut's southern suburbs on September 27 last year, during a war that left Hezbollah severely weakened.

His former bodyguard Hussein Khalil -- commonly known as Abu Ali, and nicknamed Nasrallah's "shield" -- was killed in Iran
...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan. The abbreviation IRGC is the same idea as Stürmabteilung (or SA). The term Supreme Guide is a the modern version form of either Duce or Führer or maybe both. They hate Jews Zionists Jews. Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol...
near the Iraqi border, the Hezbollah official told AFP on condition of anonymity.

An Iraqi border guard officer told AFP that Khalil and a member of an Iraqi gang were killed by "an Israeli dronezap" after crossing into the neighboring country.

The Iraqi group, the Sayyed al-Shuhada Brigades, said that the commander of its security unit, Haider al-Moussawi, was killed in the "Zionist attack", along with Khalil and his son Mahdi.

The former bodyguard had appeared alongside Nasrallah for years during the leader's rare public appearances.

The two men also shared family ties, with one of Khalil's sons married to a granddaughter of Nasrallah.

During Nasrallah's funeral in February, Khalil stood atop the vehicle carrying the slain leader's body.

The funeral drew a crowd of hundreds of thousands of people, the first mass event organized by Hezbollah since the end of its war with Israel.

Separately, five children were maimed in Iraq on Saturday by fallen debris from a missile near the town of Dujail in the northern province of Salaheddin, security and medical sources told AFP on condition of anonymity because they were not allowed to speak to the media.

The children sustained moderate and minor injuries, a medical source said.

A security source in the area confirmed the children were maimed by "a fallen fragment from a missile".

The origin of the missile was not clear.

Since Israel launched its unprecedented attack on Iran last week, Iranian missiles and drones have been crossing paths with Israeli warplanes in the skies over Iraq, forcing Iraq to close its airspace to commercial traffic.

[Regnum] The organizers of the terrorist attack in the church, as well as members of the underground group, were detained in Damascus. This was reported on June 13 by the SANA agency, citing intelligence and the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

"Operations against ISIS-affiliated terrorist cells in the Damascus countryside have led to the arrest of a cell leader and five of its members, and the elimination of two others.

The ministry also reported that a large quantity of weapons, ammunition, explosive vests, mines, and one motorcycle bomb were seized.

As reported by the Regnum news agency, on June 22, in the Duweil area, where the Christian population lives, a terrorist attack occurred during a church service. A suicide bomber, who burst into the church, opened fire on civilians with an automatic weapon, after which he detonated an explosive device. The number of dead was 25 people, 63 were injured.

On June 23, the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, stated that Moscow strongly condemns the terrorist attack in Damascus. She noted that Russia supports the Syrian authorities' determination to conduct a thorough investigation and confirms its readiness to assist in normalizing the military-political situation.

Army inspects building in Hadath for Hezbollah weapons — Naharnet
[NAHARNET] The Lebanese Army inspected Monday a building in Hay al-American in Hadath in search of military equipment.

Army forces had inspected buildings in the area, once with a bulldozer, at the request of the five-member committee supervising the Israel-Hezbollah ceasefire.
Inspected with a bulldozer?? That’s sending a very clear message!
The densely populated Hay al-American street in Hadath near Beirut's southern suburbs had been targeted by Israeli strikes during the 14-month Israel-Hezbollah war and even after the late November reached ceasefire.

Israel has warned that it would keep up its strikes on Hezbollah targets across Leb
...an Iranian satrapy until recently ruled by Hassan Nasrallah situated on the eastern Mediterranean, conveniently adjacent to Israel...
, while the Lebanese army condemned Israeli Arclight airstrike
...KABOOM!...
s and warned that such attacks are weakening the role of Lebanon's armed forces that might eventually suspend cooperation with the committee monitoring the truce that ended the Israel-Hezbollah war.

The army had tried to convince Israel to let Lebanese officials go in to search suspected areas, under the mechanism laid out in the ceasefire agreement, instead of striking them.
