Afghanistan
47 Security Force Members Killed in Takhar Fighting: MP
[ToloNews] Takhar’s deputy police chief Raz Mohammad Doorandish and nearly 50 security force members were killed in festivities with the Taliban
...Arabic for students...
in the province on Tuesday night, local officials said.

"47 people (security forces members) were killed, and three or four others were maimed," said Amir Mohammad Khaksar, an MP from Takhar, adding that "the casualties will increase."

The fighting began with Taliban attacks on security forces in Masjid-e-Safid village of Baharak district, according to local officials. "The Taliban has also suffered heavy casualties in the festivities but there is no exact information."

Baharak is about 15km far from the capital of Takhar.

Relatives of security force members killed in the fighting have gathered at a hospital in Taloqan, the bucolic provincial capital, to receive the bodies of their family members.

Abdul Qayoum Hairat, head of Takhar's public health department, also confirmed that at least "20 special forces" are among the dead.

"17 others are dead from among Takhar’s police forces," he said.

A security force member who survived the attack said that "the forces clashed for several hours and during this time we called several times for support but did not receive any."

Doorandish is also among the dead from Tuesday night’s festivities. He was one of the special forces officers who recently was appointed as the deputy police chief of Takhar.

"The deputy police chief first was maimed in the fighting and died later," said Tariq Arian, a front man for the Interior Ministry.

"A number of other security forces were also killed in the fighting," he added.

Earlier, a source gave the following numbers:

"Around 60 security force members were sent on an operation in Baharak district to clear the bad boys, but the bodies of 12 of them were maimed while 48 other security forces are still missing," said a security source said in early hours of Wednesday morning.

Recently, the festivities have increased in the country.

The Ministry of Defense on Wednesday in a statement also said that 116 Taliban were killed and 39 others were maimed in the fighting over the past 24 hours in the country.

The Taliban has not yet commented on the fighting.
Latifa Saeedi, a member of the Takhar provincial council, told Khaama Press that fighting had been going on for the past few days in the Baharak district of the province and that Afghan forces had suffered casualties since Tuesday.
And from Al Ahram, this tidbit:
"The Taliban had taken positions in the houses around the area. They ambushed our forces who were there for an operation against the enemy," Jawad Hejri, a front man for the governor said.

Artsakh forces strike attacking Azerbaijani troops
[ALMASDARNEWS] The Artsakh Defense Army (ADA) carried out a number of artillery and missile strikes on the enemy positions this week, as they attempt to stifle the Azerbaijani military’s attempted advances.

According to the Artsakh Defense Army’s official Twitter account, their forces neutralized a unit from the Azerbaijani Armed Forces that was attempting to move through an undisclosed part of the Karabakh region.

In the video released with their claim, the Artsakh Defense Army can be seen scoring direct hits on the Azerbaijani’s forces that are attempting to move through through Karabakh.


The Armenian Ministry of Defense announced on Wednesday morning that the Artsakh Defense Army’s air defense forces shot down an enemy warplane in the southern region of Karabakh.

“The #AirDefence units of the #Artsakh Defence Army shot down an adversary airplane at around 8:30 in the Southern Section,” the official Twitter account of the Armenian Ministry of Defense said.

They would add that “the situation is relatively stable but tense.”

The Armenian Ministry of Defense did not provide any details about the Azerbaijani aircraft that was shot down, nor was any footage released from the incident.

The downing of this Azerbaijani warplane comes just hours after the Artsakh Defense Army’s air defense units shot down a Turkish-made drone over the Karabakh region.

France uncovers radicalization network that led to murder of teacher, 7 to be charged
[Jpost] Less than a week after French teacher Samuel Paty was murdered and beheaded, Gay Paree is uncovering the extent of the radicalization and hate networks that led to the unprecedented murder.

Knife attack that killed one tourist and seriously injured another in the German city of Dresden in early October is being treated as a terrorist attack
[PUBLISH.TWITTER]
Deutsche Welle adds:
A 20-year-old Syrian who stabbed one person to death and maimed another in Dresden was likely motivated by Islamic extremism, German prosecutors said on Wednesday.

The man was arrested on Tuesday evening, police and prosecutors in the eastern German city said. They said the suspect came to authorities' attention as a result of examining evidence at the scene of the crime.

"Investigations have shown that the dreadful killing in Dresden had an Islamist background," Justice Minister Christine Lambrecht said. "Islamist terror is a major, enduring threat to our society that we have to tackle determinedly."

According to the Bild newspaper, that evidence was DNA traces found on the attack weapon, which police discovered not far from the scene of the October 4 crime. The paper said the suspect's DNA was already recorded in police databases and cited a prosecutor as saying that the man already had a police record.

FATAL ATTACK
The authorities said the suspect had an extensive criminal record, including charges of soliciting support for a foreign terrorist organization, and charges of bodily injury, and making threats.

The alleged attacker came to Germany in 2015 and applied for asylum, according to Der Spiegel magazine. Even though his application was rejected, he has managed to stay in Germany under the so-called "tolerated" status which German authorities give to rejected asylum seekers who cannot be deported.

The two victims, both from the western state of North Rhine-Westphalia, were visiting Dresden together. One 55-year-old man died of his injuries in hospital, while a 53-year-old survived despite having been badly maimed.

Fifth Column
Rifle-carrying trans Muslim Antifa arrested at riot in Phoenix
[THEPOSTMILLENNIAL] A transsexual Moslem Death Eater Antifa
...the armed wing of the Democratic Party...
was arrested again at a violent mostly peaceful far-left protest in Phoenix last Saturday.

35-year-old Britney Erica Austin, formerly Eric Austin, was among 18 individuals arrested in downtown Phoenix at a violent mostly peaceful anti-police protest. Austin was covered head-to-toe at the time in a black abaya, or women’s Islamic robe, and a burka.

Protesters shut down traffic and Phoenix Police say the group of rioters hurled incendiary devices at responding officers. Austin was carrying a semi-automatic rifle at the time. Police declared an unlawful assembly and fired impact munitions.

Austin was taken into custody on charges of felony first-degree hindering prosecution, felony riot and unlawful assembly. She’s been arrested at least a half-dozen times related to far-left protests in Arizona. Austin did not respond to a request for comment but has published social media posts about her most recent arrest.

"There were multiple trans and gender non-conforming folx who were repeatedly and intentionally misgendered, disrespected, dehumanized, and violated throughout the process including me," Austin wrote on Facebook. "I was also subjected to intentional and gender-based Islamophobia
...the irrational fear that Moslems will act the way they usually do...
and retaliation for asserting my legal rights."

Palestinian-Jordanian allegedly spied for UAE for years in Turkey
[Jpost] Astal was allegedly tasked with gathering intelligence on Moslem Brüderbund members and Arab and Emirati dissidents in The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...the decaying remnant of the Ottoman Empire...
.

A Jordanian national of Paleostinian origin allegedly conducted espionage activities for the United Arab Emirates for 11 years in both the UAE and Turkey, Ottoman Turkish government broadcaster TRT reported on Tuesday.

Mahmoud Ayesh Al Astal, 45, received around $400,000 in payments for the espionage services, according to documents obtained by TRT. Seven years of his spying career were done in Turkey, where he allegedly posed as an investigative journalist writing for publications affiliated with the Moslem Brüderbund movement.

Syria-Lebanon-Iran
Overnight Syria Strike Kills 3 Hizbullah-Linked Fighters
[AnNahar] Three Iran-backed paramilitary fighters were killed in an overnight Israeli strike that hit Syria's southern province of Quneitra, a war monitor said Wednesday.

The three were from the Syrian Resistance® to Liberate the Golan, a group linked to Leb
...an Iranian colony situated on the eastern Mediterranean, conveniently adjacent to Israel. Formerly inhabited by hardy Phoenecian traders, its official language is now Arabic, with the usual unpleasant side effects. The Leb civil war, between 1975 and 1990, lasted a little over 145 years and produced 120,000 fatalities. The average length of a ceasefire was measured in seconds. The Lebs maintain a precarious sectarian balance among Shiites, Sunnis, and about a dozeen flavors of Christians. It is the home of Hezbollah, which periodically starts a war with the Zionist Entity, gets Beirut pounded to rubble, and then declares victory and has a parade. The Lebs have the curious habit of periodically murdering their heads of state or prime ministers...
's Hizbullah
...Party of God, a Leb militia inspired, founded, funded and directed by Iran. Hizbullah refers to itself as The Resistance and purports to defend Leb against Israel, with whom it has started and lost one disastrous war to date, though it did claim victory...
, said Rami Abdul Rahman, head of the Britannia-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights.

The group was formed more than six years ago to launch attacks in the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights.

At least one of the killed fighters was Syrian, the Observatory said, but the nationalities of the other two remained unclear.

The official SANA news agency reported the Israeli strike on a "school" in Quneitra's northern countryside shortly after midnight, but did not mention casualties.

Abdul Rahman said that Iran-backed fighters were staying inside the facility the night of the attack.

Turkish forces, allied militants shell town in northeastern Syria
[PRESSTV] Ottoman Turkish forces and allied Takfiri
...an adherent of takfir wal hijra, an offshoot of Salafism that regards everybody who doesn't agree with them as apostates who must be killed...
turbans have reportedly shelled residential areas in the countryside of Syria’s northeastern province of Raqqah.

Syria’s official news agency SANA reported on Monday that the shelling took place in Ain Issa, which lies near the border with The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...Qatar's satrapy in Asia Minor...
In recent months, the krazed killers, who have maintained heavy presence in vicinity of the border areas with Turkey, have launched frequent attacks on Syrian infrastructure, residential areas and agricultural land.

Raqqah is one of the regions with krazed killer-controlled areas where security conditions have been jeopardized in the recent past.

In September, the United Nations
...an organization originally established to war on dictatorships which was promptly infiltrated by dictatorships and is now held in thrall to dictatorships...
urged Turkey to launch an immediate and independent investigation into war crimes and other violations of international law committed in northern Syria — a region mainly under the control of Ottoman Turkish forces and allied krazed killer groups.

Michelle Bachelet, the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, said that the situation in those areas of Syria was grim, with violence and criminality rife.

Russian warplanes launch heavy attack over northwestern Syria
[TWITTER]
The Russian Air Force has launched another round of Arclight airstrike
...KABOOM!...
s over northwestern Syria this week, as their warplanes heavily targeted the positions of Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham, formerly al-Nusra, before that it was called something else
...al-Qaeda's Syrian affiliate, from which sprang the Islamic State...
(HTS) and their allies.

According to a field source in the Latakia Governorate, the Russian Air Force conducted several airstrikes over the Idlib Governorate on Wednesday, hitting a number of points belonging to the jihadist rebels in the Jabal al-Zawiya region.

This latest round of airstrikes by the Russian Air Force comes just a day after they launched a heavy attack over the Jabal al-Zawiya region.

On Tuesday, the Russian Air Force raided the jihadist positions in Jabal al-Zawiya after their reconnaissance planes observed several vehicles belonging to Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham moving towards the front-lines in southern Idlib.

While the Russian Air Force attacked the jihadist defenses on Tuesday, the Ottoman Turkish military was observed withdrawing from the Morek observation post in northern Hama.

This Ottoman Turkish military point was the largest of Ankara’s observation posts in the Hama Governorate.

The Ottoman Turkish military also withdrew from three other points, thus ending their presence in the northern region of the Hama Governorate.
