[GEO.TV] Pak forces this morning carried out intelligence-based operations (IBOs) in the border regions inside Afghanistan against snuffies launching attacks in Pakistain from Afghan soil, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MoFA) said on Monday.
The target of today’s operation was the snuffies belonging to Hafiz Gul Bahadur ...a member of the Madda Khel clan of the Uthmanzai Waziris. Educated in a Deobandi madrassa located in Multan, he is affiliated with the Jamaat Ulema-e-Islam-Fazl (JUI-F) political party. Upon the formation of the Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) in December 2007, he was announced as the group's overall naib amir under Baitullah Mehsud, who was based in South Wazoo, but has largely distanced himself from the TTP due to rivalries with the Mehsuds and disagreements about the TTP's attacks against the Pak state.. Group, which along with the banned Tehrik-e-Taliban ...the Pashtun equivalent of men... Pakistain (TTP), is responsible for the March 16 attack in Mir Ali, North Wazoo and multiple other terrorist attacks in the country, resulting in deaths of hundreds of civilians and law enforcement officials.
On Saturday, at least seven Pakistain Army soldiers — including a lieutenant colonel and captain — embraced martyrdom after gallantly fighting with snuffies as they attacked a security forces' post in the Mir Ali area of North Waziristan, Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa (KP).
The Foreign Office (FO) issued a detailed statement on the matter, saying that Pakistain, for the past two years, has repeatedly conveyed its serious concerns to the interim Afghan Government over the presence of terror outfits including TTP inside Afghanistan.
It said that these snuffies pose a grave threat to Pakistain’s security and have consistently used Afghan territory to launch terror attacks inside Pak territory.
Pakistain accords prime importance to the illusory sovereignty and territorial integrity of Afghanistan. It has, therefore, always prioritised dialogue and cooperation to confront the terrorist threat.
"We have repeatedly urged the Afghan authorities to take concrete and effective action to ensure that the Afghan soil is not used as a staging ground for terrorism against Pakistain. We have also called on them to deny safe havens to TTP and to hand over its leadership to Pakistain," the FO said.
The statement added that Pakistain has great respect for the people of Afghanistan; however, certain elements among those in power in Afghanistan are actively patronising TTP and using them as a proxy against Pakistain.
"Such an approach against a brotherly country, which stood with the people of Afghanistan through thick and thin, manifests shortsightedness. It ignores the support extended by Pakistain to the people of Afghanistan over the last several decades.
"We urge these elements in power to rethink the policy of siding with Khwarij snuffies shedding the blood of innocent Paks and to make a clear choice to stand with the people of Pakistain," it added.
The FO further stated that terrorist groups like TTP are a collective threat to regional peace and security.
"We fully realise the challenge Afghan authorities face in combating the threat posed by the TTP. Pakistain would therefore continue to work towards finding joint solutions in countering terrorism and to prevent any terrorist organization from sabotaging bilateral relations with Afghanistan," the statement concluded.
However, if you can't say something nice about a person some juicy gossip will go well... the Afghan Taliban claimed that two air strikes carried out inside Afghanistan by Pak forces had killed right people in the war-torn country.
"The Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan does not allow anyone to compromise security by using Afghan territory," said Zabiullah Mujahid, a front man of the Taliban administration, in a Rooters report.
He added that the strikes took place in the eastern border provinces of Khost and Paktika ...which coincidentally borders South Wazoo...
[AFRICANEWS] At least 16 soldiers, including four officers, were killed in southern Nigeria while responding to a distress call during fighting between two communities, defense officials said Saturday.
The attack in the oil-rich, riverine Delta state happened in the Bomadi council area Thursday when the soldiers, deployed to keep the peace, "were surrounded by some community youths and killed," Defense Headquarters front man Brig. Gen. Tukur Gusau said in a statement.
The attack led to the death of the commanding officer, two majors, one captain and 12 soldiers, Gusau said, adding that a few arrests had been made related to the attack, which is now being investigated by the military.
Local media reported the conflict in Delta was related to a lingering land dispute between the Okuama and Okoloba communities, which resulted in the abduction of one man. The soldiers had unsuccessfully tried to negotiate his freedom.
Though mostly deployed on special security operations across the West African country, Nigerian soldiers are sometimes sent to resolve conflict in communities, especially areas with an inadequate security presence or where deadly festivities are common.
The two [drone bases], Air Base 101 in the capital of Niamey, and Air Base 201 near Agadez, are air fields which the United States military uses for counterterrorism operations against al-Qaeda and the Islamic State in West Africa.
[IsraelTimes] The US military says it destroyed seven anti-ship missiles, three drones and three weapons storage containers in Iran's Houthi sock puppets ...a Zaidi Shia insurgent group operating in Yemen. They have also been referred to as the Believing Youth. Hussein Badreddin al-Houthi is said to be the spiritual leader of the group and most of the military leaders are his relatives. The legitimate Yemeni government has accused the them of having ties to the Iranian government. Honest they did. The group has managed to gain control over all of Saada Governorate and parts of Amran, Al Jawf and Hajjah Governorates. Its slogan is God is Great, Death to America™, Death to Israel, a curse on the Jews They like shooting off... ummm... missiles that they would have us believe they make at home in their basements. On the plus side, they did murder Ali Abdullah Saleh, which was the only way the country was ever going to be rid of him... -controlled areas of Yemen ...an area of the Arabian Peninsula sometimes mistaken for a country. It is populated by more antagonistic tribes and factions than you can keep track of... "It was determined these weapons presented an imminent threat to merchant vessels and US Navy ships in the region," the US military’s Central Command says in a statement on the social media site X.

[KavkazUzel] Security forces defused an explosive device found in the house where the participant in the attack on the traffic police post in Kantyshevo lived, the Sunzha mayor's office reported.
As the " Caucasian Knot " wrote, on March 7 it became known that security forces found a homemade bomb in the house of a resident of the village of Troitskaya, who, according to them, is associated with the militants killed during the counter-terrorist operation in Karabulak.
On March 3, security forces killed six suspected militants during a counter-terrorism operation (CTO) in Karabulak. On March 5, sources reported that Amirkhan Gurazhev, Zelimkhan Tsuroev, Magomed Barkinkhoev, Tagir Tsuroev, Mikail Tutaev and Bers Chemurziev were killed. Later, the same names were published by official news agencies and publications. The investigation believes that all six were supporters of the Islamic State terrorist organization banned in Russia and were involved in an attack on a traffic police post and the murder of three police officers in March 2023. The details are collected in the “Caucasian Knot” certificate “ How the special operation took place in Karabulak.”
When examining a home on Chechenskaya Street in Sunzha, where one of the participants in the attack on a security forces post in the village of Kantyshevo, Nazran district previously lived, security forces found an explosive device, the Sunzha administration reported today on its telegram channel.
“For security reasons, it was decided to destroy the explosive device on the spot. No one was injured during the events,” the publication says.
Let us remind you that on the night of March 28, 2023, during the shelling of the Volga-14 traffic police post near the village of Kantyshevo, on the border of Ingushetia and North Ossetia, two policemen were wounded, and the attackers managed to escape. After the incident, six residents of Ingushetia were put on the wanted list.
A counter-terrorist operation regime was introduced, but the underground participants managed to escape from the security forces two more times, and the security forces suffered losses both times.
After the attack on the Volga 24 traffic police post on March 28, 2023, the wanted persons repeatedly entered into shootouts with security forces and managed to escape from law enforcement officers - on April 3 in Malgobek and on April 5 in Zyazikov-Yurt. During the battle in Zyazikov-Yurt, three security forces were killed and eight were wounded, which was the largest daily loss of security forces since August 2012.
[Breitbart] A riot broke out on Sunday evening at a police station in a multicultural suburb of Paris following the killing of an 18-year-old man during a police chase.
That sounds like Moslem colonists making their presence known to the colonized. Again.
Molotov cocktails, fireworks, and other makeshift projectiles were thrown at the La Courneuve police station, in Seine-Saint-Denis, the home to one of the largest foreign-born communities in France. Trash fires were also set ablaze by the agitants.
Paris Police Chief Laurent Nuñez announced on Monday morning that nine people have been arrested in connection to the riot, Le Figaro reports. Nuñez added that two police officers were injured by projectiles during the incident, however, they did not require hospital attention.
Security around the police station and additional officers have since been deployed to the area.
The riot was reportedly inspired by the death of ‘Wanys R’, an 18-year-old, who died on Sunday as he and a companion fled from police on a scooter. The scooter was hit by an anti-crime brigade police car coming from the opposite direction after being called upon as backup for the chase. The young man, who was thrown from the vehicle, later died from his injuries at a hospital.
According to reports, Wanys R was well known to police and had recently been released from prison.
Reda Belhadj, a spokesman for the SGP Police FO Ile de France blamed the riot on the death of the youth, saying: “They were claiming a vendetta to follow up the events in Aubervilliers,” which he said rioters believe was a “premeditated” killing.
A similar incident last year sparked nationwide riots in France. In June, a 17-year-old Algerian-heritage teenager, Nahel Merzouk, was shot and killed by police after he attempted to flee from a traffic stop in the Nanterre suburb of Paris.
The news of the death quickly spread throughout migrant communities in France and sparked some of the most destructive riots in recent memory, resulting in over 1,000 buildings set on fire, 5,600 vehicles destroyed, and over 3,300 people arrested in just the first six days of the riots.
While it is unclear if the latest killing will trigger similar riots nationwide, with the European Parliament elections quickly approaching, the death may be used to galvanise voters by leftist activists.
The former presidential candidate for the far-left New Anticapitalist Party, Philippe Poutou, celebrated the riots on Sunday evening, writing on X: “Nice fireworks this evening in front of the La Courneuve police station. Support for legitimate anger after yet another young person was killed by the police. Logical continuation of the revolts of July 23. Everything is getting worse, racism, discrimination, poverty, poor housing, repressive violence.”
However, the riots are also being cited by populists to criticise President Emmanuel Macron. The leader of the anti-mass migration Reconquest party, Eric Zemmour, said: “What is happening in La Courneuve is the routine of Islamized neighbourhoods which do not support the French police, French law and France in general. The political class is paralyzed by these people. Not me.”
Meanwhile, former National Rally presidential candidate Marine Le Pen wrote: “New riots broke out yesterday in Seine-Saint-Denis and a police station was attacked. For seven years, Emmanuel Macron has continued to weaken the authority of the State, plunging France into permanent chaos. Support for the police officers targeted yesterday in La Courneuve.”
[GEO.TV] A local court in Rawalpindi on Monday sent Naib Tehsildar Najaf Hamid, brother of former ISI chief retired Lieutenant General Faiz Hamid, to Adiala Jail in Rawalpindi on a 14-day judicial remand in a corruption case.
The development comes as the suspect moved the court of Senior Civil Judge Waqar Hussain Gondal seeking pre-arrest bail after a special anti-corruption court threw out his post-arrest bail plea.
Najaf is facing charges of accumulating assets beyond his known source of income, corruption and misconduct. Corruption in PakiLand? Pshaw!
Former spymaster Faiz Hamids brother sent to jail in corruption case
In his order, the senior civil judge stated: "Investigation officer/case officer has requested to send the above accused to the judicial lockup."
"Record reflects that offences allegedly levelled against the accused are non-bailable in nature. Therefore, as per the request of I.O./C.O. accused person is sent to judicial lock up and be produced along with report [challan] under Section 173 Cr.P.C before the concerned court on April 1, 2024," read the order.
Earlier in the day, Najaf appeared before the court of anti-corruption judge Ali Nawaz Bhakar seeking an extension to his pre-arrest interim bail. The officials of the Anti-Corruption Establishment (ACE) Rawalpindi circle taken him into custody as the court rejected his request.
Meanwhile, ...back at the shouting match, a new, even louder, voice was to be heard... the suspect filed a post-arrest bail in the same court, which was also rejected by the judge.
On the other hand, the anti-corruption department Punjab 1.) Little Orphan Annie's bodyguard
2.) A province of Pakistain ruled by one of the Sharif brothers
3.) A province of India. It is majority (60 percent) Sikh and Hindoo (37 percent), which means it has relatively few Moslem riots.... confirmed that Najaf was arrested after his interim bail was dismissed by the court.
The former spymaster’s brother was arrested after allegations against him were proved during the investigations, the officials said.

[IsraelTimes] Soldier killed during operation; military says it had ’concrete intelligence’ terror operatives regrouped in Strip’s largest medical center; 200 suspects captured
The Israel Defense Forces early Monday morning launched a raid on 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 an 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... City’s Shifa Hospital, amid intelligence that senior Hamas ...the braying voice of Islamic Resistance®,... officials were in the area and using the hospital to plan and carry out terror activity, the military said. During the operation troops killed a senior Hamas commander, according to the IDF. One Israeli soldier was also killed amid a shootout with terror operatives in the area of the hospital before dawn.
The raid was launched at around 2:30 a.m., with troops of the IDF’s 401st Armored Brigade and other units, including special forces and the Shin Bet security agency, encircling the hospital, the largest medical center in the Gaza Strip.
As troops arrived at the medical center, Hamas button men opened fire "from within the hospital compound," the IDF and the Shin Bet said. The troops returned fire, killing and wounding several button men, according to the IDF.
There were other exchanges of gunfire in and near the hospital, the military said.
By Monday evening, some 20 Hamas button men were killed inside the hospital premises and another 20 were killed in the surrounding area, the IDF said.
In one incident inside the hospital, the IDF said troops of the Navy’s Shayetet 13 commando unit killed a senior Hamas commander, Faiq Mabhouh.
Mabhouh, who served as the head of operations in Hamas’s internal security, was armed and hiding inside the Shifa complex, "from which he was working to advance terror activity," the IDF said. Mabhouh was killed amid an exchange of fire during an attempt to arrest him, the IDF said. In a nearby room, the IDF said troops recovered a cache of weapons. Mabhouh, according to the IDF and Shin Bet, was responsible for the "synchronization" of various Hamas units in the Gaza Strip, including during the war.
The slain operative was the brother of senior Hamas official Mahmoud Mabhouh, who was allegedly assassinated by the Mossad in Dubai in 2010, Israeli defense sources confirmed to The Times of Israel. Mahmoud Mabhouh was chief of logistics and weapons procurement for the military wing of Hamas.
The IDF also announced that Staff Sgt. Matan Vinogradov, 20, of the Nahal Brigade’s 932nd Battalion, from Jerusalem, was killed in an exchange of fire in the area of Shifa Hospital early Monday. His death brought the toll of slain troops in the IDF’s ground offensive against Hamas to 250.
The IDF released footage (above) showing what it said were Hamas button men shooting at troops from the hospital premises and the nearby area as the raid began. The footage also showed a roadside kaboom being detonated against an Israeli armored vehicle, which the IDF said was activated by operatives at Shifa.
Also at Shifa, the IDF said troops also found weapons and money provided by Hamas and Paleostinian Islamic Jihad ...created after many members of the Egyptian Moslem Brotherhood decided the organization was becoming too moderate. Operations were conducted out of Egypt until 1981 when the group was exiled after the assassination of President Anwar Sadat. They worked out of Gaza until they were exiled to Lebanon in 1987, where they clove tightly to Hezbollah. In 1989 they moved to Damascus, where they remain a subsidiary of Hezbollah... to its operatives at the hospital.
Israel’s intelligence indicated that Hamas operatives and commanders from the northern Gaza Strip recently arrived at the hospital premises to use the buildings as a command center to manage the fighting against IDF troops and carry out attacks against Israel. The IDF said in a statement that it had "concrete intelligence" Hamas operatives had regrouped at the hospital and were planning terror activity.
There was no information on hostages being held in the area, according to the IDF.
Several hours into the raid, the IDF said it had established control over the area, with troops surrounding several buildings at the Shifa complex while calling on Hamas members inside to come out and surrender.
Suspects were being questioned at the hospital by field interrogators of the Shin Bet and the Military Intelligence Directorate’s Unit 504. The IDF said that as of Monday evening, some 200 suspects were tossed into the calaboose by troops. The military claimed that some of those captured were confirmed terror operatives.
In a statement overnight, the military said troops at the hospital were "briefed in advance regarding the importance of preventing harm to civilians, patients, medical teams, and medical equipment" and that Arabic speakers were with the security forces to facilitate communication with patients and staff.
IDF doctors were also on hand "to assist those in need." Once the operation at the hospital is over, "the IDF will continue the humanitarian effort and provide food, water, and additional supplies to the patients and civilians in the complex," the military said.
Patients and the medical staff at Shifa were not ordered to evacuate the hospital but the military created pathways for civilians to leave the area, the IDF said.
During the raid, the IDF called on those living near hospital and residents of the nearby Gaza City neighborhood of Rimal to evacuate to the al-Mawasi "humanitarian zone" on the coast of southern Gaza. Lt. Col. Avichay Adraee, the IDF’s Arabic-language front man, published a map of the zones that need to be evacuated alongside the announcement. He said the civilians must evacuate south via the Strip’s coastal road.
At the beginning of Israel’s ground offensive against Hamas, in late October, the IDF called on all Paleostinian civilians in northern Gaza to evacuate south, but some 300,000 have remained since regardless.
Ahead of the raid, the IDF warned Hamas health officials in the Strip that it would not allow the terror group to use hospitals as command centers, without specifying it would target Shifa.
The IDF has repeatedly accused Hamas of deliberately operating from civilian areas, including hospitals, schools, mosques, and shelters.
Last year, the IDF presented evidence to back up longstanding allegations that Hamas used Shifa Hospital as a major operational hub and command center and that the hospital sat atop tunnels housing headquarters for Hamas fighters who were using patients as shields. The US has corroborated the evidence presented by Israel.
The IDF completed destroying the tunnels under Shifa in December. Hamas’s latest alleged activity at the hospital took place in its buildings and not tunnels, according to the IDF.
Last month, the New York Times
...which still proudly displays Walter Duranty's Pulitzer prize... reported that a tunnel underneath Shifa was used extensively by Hamas for military operations and is nearly twice as long as the IDF had previously revealed.
The al-Jazeera television network says Israel’s military has released a freelance correspondent who was detained during its raid on 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 an 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... City’s Shifa Hospital.
Correspondent Ismail Alghoul was detained along with other journalists early today when he was covering the raid on the hospital, the network said. It said Israeli troops beat him and destroyed the network’s broadcast vehicle as well as cameras and equipment.
Later, the Qatar ...an emirate on the east coast of the Arabian Peninsula. It sits on some really productive gas and oil deposits, which produces the highest per capita income in the world. They piss it all away on religion, financing the Moslem Brotherhood and several al-Qaeda affiliates. Home of nutbag holy manYusuf al-Qaradawi... i-owned network reported that Alghoul was released. It quoted him as saying that he and other journalists were handcuffed, blindfolded, and stripped of their clothes for 12 hours.
[GEO.TV] The Israeli forces have destroyed almost 300 houses of Palestinians in the occupied West Bank since October 7, said the UN’s Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA).
Over 1,600 Palestinians have been displaced within the occupied terrorist, including East Jerusalem, since that time.
“The majority of those displaced (903) were during operations carried out by Israeli forces, especially in refugee camps in Jenin and Tulkarm, followed by displacement due to the lack of Israeli-issued permits (640), and displacement due to the demolition of homes on punitive grounds (138).”
In summary, over half were during active firefights, a third should never have been built (and were probably a danger to the inhabitants and their neighbours), and the remainder were terrorists. Where’s the problem?

Israeli forces destroyed 300 houses in West Bank
