[Khaama (Afghanistan)] A child was killed and seven other civilians were maimed in an kaboom in Jalalabad city, the bustling provincial capital of eastern Nangarhar The unfortunate Afghan province located adjacent to Mohmand, Kurram, and Khyber Agencies. The capital is Jalalabad. The province was the fief of Younus Khalis after the Soviets departed and one of his sons is the current provincial Taliban commander. Nangarhar is Haqqani country.. province.
Provincial governor’s front man Ataullah Khogyani confirmed the incident took place at around 6 am local time in the second police district of the city.
He said explosives planted in front of a shop went off in Ahangaran area, leaving a 10-year-old child dead and injuring seven other civilians.
Khogyani further added that at least four children and the shopkeeper are among those maimed.
No individual or group has so far grabbed credit behind the incident.
The anti-government armed Lion of Islam groups frequently use explosives materials for the roadside kaboomings and boom-mobileings to target the government staff and security personnel.
However, there's more than one way to stuff a chicken... in majority of such incidents the ordinary civilians are targeted besides such bombings incur casualties to the security personnel and in some cases the Talibs themselves are killed or maimed.
A total of 10,453 civilian casualties ‐ 3,438 people killed and 7,015 injured ‐ were documented in the 2017 Annual Report released last month by the UN Assistance Mission in Afghanistan (UNAMA) and the UN Human Rights Office.

[Libya Observer] Two ungunnies in civilian clothes were brutally executed by turbans of warlord Khalifa Haftar ...Self-proclaimed Field Marshal, served in the Libyan army under Muammar Qadaffy, and took part in the coup that brought Qadaffy to power in 1969. He became a prisoner of war in Chad in 1987. While held prisoner, he and his fellow officers formed a group hoping to overthrow Qadaffy. He was released around 1990 in a deal with the United States government and spent nearly two decades in the United States, gaining US citizenship. In 1993, while living in the United States, he was convicted in absentia of crimes against the Jamahiriya and sentenced to death. Haftar held a senior position in the anti-Qadaffy forces in the 2011 Libyan Civil War. In 2014 he was commander of the Libyan Army when the General National Congress (GNC) refused to give up power in accordance with its term of office. Haftar launched a campaign against the GNC and its Islamic fundamentalist allies. His campaign allowed elections to take place to replace the GNC, but then developed into a civil war. Guess you can't win them all... ’s self-styled army in Derna.
A horrific video emerged online on Wednesday showing a group of turbans beating, kicking and torturing the two men before killing them.
The two appeared to have been tossed in the calaboose Maw! They're comin' to get me, Maw! driving a civilian car in one of the streets of the city.
In the video, the two were lying on the ground while the turbans were torturing them. No arms were seized with both men.
A Lion of Islam approached one of the men and shot him to the head at point-blank range. Another Lion of Islam approached the other man and shot up him. Then the turbans showered the dead bodies with a barrage of gunfire while other turbans were cheering and chanting "Allah Akbar."
Khalifa Haftar’s turbans are notorious for committing heinous crimes against humanity. During their war in Benghazi several ISIS-style war crimes were committed by Saiqa field commander Mahmoud al-Werfalli.

The Times of Israel has more here on his claim about the Dusseldorf terror plot and what Mr. A hoped to gain from it, not to mention the two innocent fellow migrants who spent eighteen months in jail on suspicion before being let go.
[Breitbart Israel] In a mockery of international diplomacy, the United Nations General Assembly accepted the Hamas terrorist organization’s propaganda narrative and voted to condemn what it claims is Israel’s "excessive, disproportionate and indiscriminate" use of force against Palestinian rioters.
The UN specifically voted not to condemn Hamas violence as part of a rejected American amendment and further called for a report within 60 days to contain "recommendations regarding an international protection mechanism" for the Palestinians.
The twisted resolution inverts the reality of a situation in which Hamas orchestrated violent riots openly aimed at storming Israel’s borders and murdering Jews.
Without any evidence or official investigation, and in fact contrary to much evidence, the UN accused the Israel Defense Forces, one of the most moral militaries in the world, of using excessive force during an unprecedented and savage Hamas campaign to violate a nation-state’s borders that saw rioters repeatedly attack Israeli soldiers. The IDF says it operated in accordance with the rules of engagement.
Only last weekend, 10,000 Hamas-directed rioters burned tires to obscure the view of the Israeli military and hurled rocks, grenades and pipe bombs at the IDF. Some rioters opened fire. Even the mainstream news media, which has largely been using unverified Hamas casualty counts, has documented the unmistakably violent nature of the riots.
[IsraelTimes] No immediate reports of injuries in Arclight airstrike in central Gazoo, as near-daily arson attacks from the coastal enclave continue
An Israeli aircraft fired at a group of Paleostinians in the central Gazoo Strip who were preparing to send a incendiary kite into Israeli territory late on Wednesday night.
There were no reports of injuries in the Israeli strike.
Since March 30, Paleostinians in the Gazoo Strip have launched hundreds of kites and helium balloons bearing flammable materials, and occasionally explosives, into Israeli territory.
The near-daily fires sparked by these airborne arson devices have burned thousands of acres of farmland, forests and nature reserves in the regions around the Gazoo Strip, according to Israeli officials.
The Tax Authority estimated that the damage will cost upwards of NIS 5 million ($1.4 million).
On Saturday, an Israeli aircraft for the first time attacked a group of three Gazooks preparing a store of balloons that Paleostinians have been using to send incendiary devices over the border during Gazoo protests, the army said.
No injuries were reported in the strike near the northern Gazoo town of Beit Hanoun. The IDF said the aircraft fired "a warning shot."
"We view the use of incendiary balloons and kites very seriously and will continue to act to prevent their use," the army said at the time.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has proposed withholding tax revenue from the Paleostinian Authority to pay for the damage, though critics are skeptical of the plan as the kites and balloons are being launched from Gazoo, where the PA has limited control.
The military has sought to counter these kites and balloons with teams of soldiers operating drones. Israeli officials have deemed the drone program a success, but it has not offered a perfect solution.
On Monday, a balloon laden with burning material landed on the roof of a storehouse in one of the communities in the Hof Ashkelon region, causing light damage to the building and surrounding area before it was put out, a spokesperson for the region said.
Multiple fires were also reported in the Sha’ar Hanegev region.
Some 500 dunams (124 acres) were burned near Kibbutz Or HaNer, a spokesperson for the region said. Another 40 dunams (10 acres) were set on fire in the area around Kibbutz Mefalsim.
One blaze broke out in the community’s agricultural fields, another a little farther from Mefalsim, along the Route 232 highway leading to the nearby Kfar Azza, a spokesperson for the region said.
The fire shut down traffic along the highway in both directions for 45 minutes, interfering with school bus services, the Sha’ar Hanegev spokesperson said.
A fire near Kibbutz Nir Am also caused damage to a number of beehives, she said.
A fire in Eshkol also forced authorities to temporarily shut down the roads between Kibbutz Ein Hashlosha and Kibbutz Kissufim.
Israeli officials have been split on how to treat the Paleostinians who launch these balloons and kites.
Public Security Minister Gilad Erdan has called on the military to shoot on sight anyone flying these so-called "terror kites."
However, some people are alive only because it's illegal to kill them... a senior officer in the army’s Southern Command last week said the military considers these arson attacks to be serious, but representing "a different kind of danger."
[IsraelTimes] Paleostinian police break up rare anti-PA protest, arrest 10After temporarily banning demonstrations, West Bank officers disperse crowd rallying against Gazoo policies
Paleostinian police have broken up a rare public protest in the West Bank against the Paleostinian Authority’s policies in Gazoo.
Dozens of Paleostinian protesters gathered in Ramallah on Wednesday calling on PA President the ineffectual Mahmoud Abbas ... a graduate of the prestigious unaccredited Patrice Lumumba University in Moscow with a doctorate in Holocaust Denial... to end his "punishment" of Hamas, a contraction of the Arabic words for "frothing at the mouth",-ruled Gazoo.
Paleostinian police dispersed the crowd with electric shockers and batons. Undercover officers dragged others away, arresting about 10 people.
Abbas has cracked down on dissent, and such protests are rare.
Hamas drove forces loyal to Abbas out of Gazoo in 2007 in a bloody coup. In recent months, Abbas has tried to pressure the terror group to hand back power in Gazoo through cutting payments for electricity and other economic measures.
The Paleostinian Authority temporarily banned public protests earlier Wednesday, ahead of the planned demonstration that evening.
The order came after on Sunday several thousand protesters erupted into the streets of Ramallah, the West Bank city that houses the Paleostinian government, calling for Abbas to end measures against Gazoo that critics say harm the two million residents.
Organizers estimated 2,000 people attended, a rare show of opposition to the government in the city.
A statement on the official news agency Wafa said Wednesday that no permits for protests would be given out during the coming days ‐ citing the Moslem Eid al-Fitr festival, which is expected to begin Friday.
"In order to facilitate citizens’ normal life in this period, it is prohibited to grant permits to organize marches or to establish gatherings that would disrupt the movement of citizens and disturb them," it said.
Despite the ban, organizers vowed to go ahead with fresh anti-government protests on Wednesday night.
"The (Israeli) occupation is the main culprit responsible for the blockade on Gazoo, but President Abbas is making things worse by also imposing collective punishment on families there," campaign activist Fadi Koran said, vowing to take to the streets.
The PA has introduced a series of measures against Gazoo in the past year, including dramatically reducing payments to Israel for the electricity it supplies Gazoo in a bid to pressure Hamas to loosen its grip on the territory.
Abbas’s Fatah movement has also not paid full salaries to tens of thousands of its civil servants in the Strip for months.
Israel has maintained a blockade on Gazoo for over a decade, which it says is necessary to prevent Hamas, which is regarded as a terror group by Israel and much of the West and is sworn to Israel’s destruction, from smuggling in weapons and material used for digging tunnels into Israel. Egypt also maintains the blockade.
The United Nations ...a lucrative dumping ground for the relatives of dictators and party hacks... has said the Strip will be unlivable by 2020.
Hamas and Fatah signed a reconciliation agreement last October, but it has since collapsed.
[PhilStar] Six Bangsamoro Islamic Freedom Fighters and a Philippine soldier were killed in clashes in Maguindanao on Monday.
Troops from the 33rd Infantry Battalion were looking for six BIFF militants injured in air strikes on Sunday. Three rebels with aliases of Bundas, Kamid and Oruk were killed in clashes in Liguasan marsh near a BIFF bomb factory destroyed in the air strikes.
Three other rebels were killed in an encounter with soldiers when another group of BIFF men led by a certain Metin tried to surround troops in Barangay Meta, Datu Unsay. Local officials identified the fatalities as Turman Aber, Mansur Mohammad and Kusid Laguiab, alias Mamalu.
The military said 15 militants were killed in air strikes and ground offensive that targeted BIFF bomb makers Taib Dinggo and Abu Walid. Four of the fatalities are reportedly foreigners.
[PRESSTV] Fighters from the Iraqi pro-government Popular Mobilization Units (PMU) have pounded the positions of the ISISTakfiri ...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... terrorist group in Syria’s eastern province of Dayr al-Zawr as the turbans are seeking to sneak through the border into Iraq.
Qassem Mesleh, PMU commander for Iraq’s west Anbar region, said in a statement on Wednesday that the volunteer forces ‐ commonly known with the Arabic name Hashd al-Sha’abi ‐ have targeted ISIS positions inside the Syrian territory, dealing heavy blows to the krazed killers.
Mesleh noted that many ISISturbans have also beat feet from the border regions with Iraq, leaving behind a considerable amount of munitions and improvised bombs.
Meanwhile, ...back at the pound, the little lost dog had finished eating the rat terrier... Qutri al-Samarmad, a Hashd al-Sha’abi commander in Anbar, told Arabic-language Basnews news agency that ISIS Takfiris had executed 30 fellow bully boyz in Hajin region near Abu Kamal city.
Samarmad added that the executions were carried out by shooting them dead.
He went on to say that ISISbully boyz have withdrawn telecommunication devices from families of the executed fellows, and prevented them from leaving their homes.
"ISIS still exists in Jazirat al-Furat and Hajin regions in Syria as well as wide parts in the vicinity of Abu Kamal," Samarmad pointed out.

They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not really Moslems.... (ISIS) allegedly executed 30 of their members in eastern Syria this week, Iraqi Kurdistan’s BasNews reported.
Citing the leader of the tribal forces of al-Anbar, Qutri al-Samarmad, BasNews reported "information by the intelligence and eyewitnesses from Syrian regions said Islamic State executed thirty of its members in Hegeen region in Syria, near al-Bu Kamal town on borders with Iraq from the side of Qaim town in Anbar."
ISIS allegedly accused these members of collaborating with the Syrian and Iraqi authorities before they executed them.
That’s the bit that was unclear yesterday. Iraqi News reports can be a bit terse.
No photos or videos have been released by the terrorist group to corroborate these claims.
The terrorist group typically releases statements, photos, and videos of their executions; however, they have yet to release anything regarding these incidents.

ISIS launched another attack tonight after failing to infiltrate the Syrian Arab Army’s defenses near the strategic hilltop of Tal Barakat in the Badiya al-Sham region.
While no advances have been made, the Islamic State has intensified their assault this time around in order to fracture the Syrian Army’s lines and retake the Tal Barakat area.
The Islamic State is trying to retake this area from the Syrian Arab Army after losing Tal Barakat this past weekend.
The Syrian Army is defending this area alongside their allies from the National Defense Forces (NDF), Liwaa al-Fatemiyoun, and Hezbollah.

(ISIS) launched a large-scale counter-offensive against the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) in the Badiya al-Sham region of al-Sweida on Wednesday.
ISIS began the attack on Wednesday by attempting to overwhelm the Syrian Arab Army troops near the large hilltop of Tal Barakat.
For a few hours, the Islamic State repeatedly struck the Syrian Army’s defenses at Tal Barakat in a bid to overwhelm the pro-government troops.
However, corruption finds a dozen alibis for its evil deeds... the Islamic State’s assault would eventually lose momentum by sundown, forcing them to withdraw back into this vast desert region in southeast Syria.
According to a military report, the Syrian Army, alongside their allies from Hezbollah and the National Defense Forces (NDF), was able to reestablish full security around Tal Barakat.
The report added that scores of Islamic State bad boyz were potted during this brief battle on Wednesday.
