Image is of a Hezbollah missile attack on a military camp west of Jenin.

The situation between Hezbollah and Israel is rapidly escalating, with massive bombing campaigns on southern Lebanon by Israel predominantly on civilians (as the tunnels in South Lebanon are mostly unreachable to the Zionists, just like in Gaza), while Hezbollah and its allies respond with missile attacks predominantly on Israeli military facilities. Israel is spreading an evacuation order to the residents of southern Lebanese villages while also bombing their routes of escape and civilian infrastructure, similar to a terror tactic used widely in Gaza.

Northern Israel is currently under military censorship to hide their losses, so we get very little information other than what the Resistance provides and what videos and images get through the censors.

I don't know if Israel will dare a ground incursion soon, but it seems fairly likely in the coming days or weeks.

Israel-Palestine Conflict

If you have evidence of Israeli crimes and atrocities that you wish to preserve, there is a thread here in which to do so.

Russia-Ukraine Conflict

Defense Politics Asia's youtube channel and their map. Their youtube channel has substantially diminished in quality but the map is still useful.
Moon of Alabama, which tends to have interesting analysis. Avoid the comment section.
Understanding War and the Saker: reactionary sources that have occasional insights on the war.
Alexander Mercouris, who does daily videos on the conflict. While he is a reactionary and surrounds himself with likeminded people, his daily update videos are relatively brainworm-free and good if you don't want to follow Russian telegram channels to get news. He also co-hosts The Duran, which is more explicitly conservative, racist, sexist, transphobic, anti-communist, etc when guests are invited on, but is just about tolerable when it's just the two of them if you want a little more analysis.
Simplicius, who publishes on Substack. Like others, his political analysis should be soundly ignored, but his knowledge of weaponry and military strategy is generally quite good.
On the ground: Patrick Lancaster, an independent and very good journalist reporting in the warzone on the separatists' side.

    Wildfires in Ecuador’s Capital Force Dozens of Families to Evacuate - Telesur English

    Article

    The fire started in a rural area and quickly spread across different fronts, reaching the urban core of Quito.

    At least two firefighters have been injured, and more than one hundred families have been evacuated from their homes due to the fires that broke out on Tuesday afternoon in Quito, the capital of Ecuador. Authorities do not believe they will be able to extinguish the fires before Wednesday.

    In a joint press conference with provincial and national authorities, Quito Mayor Pabel Muñoz explained that the shelter system of the San José Patronage has been activated to assist the evacuated families.

    The evacuation was carried out as a precaution since, so far, there have been few impacts on homes and infrastructure. No fatalities have been reported.

    The fire started in a rural area and quickly spread across different fronts, reaching the urban core of the Ecuadorian capital and extending to the Metropolitan Park. Around 215 members of the Quito Fire Department are battling the flames, Muñoz said, adding that 440 people have been mobilized in various emergency zones.

    The National Police have deployed over 1,600 officers, and the Armed Forces have sent around 180 soldiers, while the Ecuadorian Air Force (FAE) has ordered two helicopters to join the fire-fighting efforts, although they will not be operational until Wednesday morning.

    Between five and seven helicopters will be involved in water-dumping operations over the flames, Muñoz said, urging citizens to avoid driving their vehicles as much as possible to facilitate the movement of emergency services.

    Paola Pabon, prefect of the Pichincha province, whose capital is Quito, assured that the local government’s machinery, as well as health, veterinary, and social assistance brigades and units, will be at the service of the Municipality during this emergency. A series of similar fires in Quito in recent days, apparently set deliberately, led to the arrest of two people who were placed in preventive detention.

    On Tuesday, the national government suspended the electricity cuts that had been scheduled in Quito as part of the rationing measures introduced last week, due to the severe drought that has hindered the normal operation of the country’s main hydroelectric plants.

    Ecuadorian goverment collapsing. But you won't see the western media reporting on this because Noboa is a US puppet. Meanwhile they torture former VP Jorge Glas and continue their lawfare against former president Rafael Correa, while kicking out the Chinese investors from their country. Colombia stopped their export of energy to Ecuador, and I believe they still hate Peru, so no energy from Peru.
