Somali army steps up ground and air operations as boats linked to Al-Shabaab seized
[ShabelleMedia] The Somali National Army (SNA) has intensified ground and aerial operations across Hirshabelle State in recent days, particularly in the regions of Lower Shabelle, Middle Shabelle, and Hiiraan, military officials said on Friday.

In the latest developments, army units stationed in parts of Lower Shabelle reported the seizure of two small boats allegedly used by the al-Qaeda-linked al-Shabaab
... the Islamic version of the old Somali warlord...
murderous Moslem group. The boats were intercepted along the Shabelle River, where troops say snuffies have been using water transport to move fighters and weapons between riverbank villages.

"Al-Shabaab has increasingly turned to small boats to avoid detection as they move across riverine areas," a senior military officer told Radio Shabelle on condition of anonymity. "These boats are not only used for logistics but also for tactical movement."

Local residents, however, often rely on such boats for transporting food and essential goods, raising concerns about the impact of military operations on civilian life.

The Somali military, backed by international partners, has recently scaled up efforts to disrupt al-Shabaab’s mobility and supply routes, particularly in areas where the snuffies have historically maintained strongholds.

Meanwhile,
...back at the pound, the little lost dog had finished eating the rat terrier...
international allies have ramped up Arclight airstrike
...KABOOM!...
s targeting al-Shabaab positions in regions recently liberated from the group, as well as those still under murderous Moslem control in parts of Shabelle and Hiiraan.

The joint offensives come amid a broader national campaign declared by the federal government to dismantle al-Shabaab’s operational networks in 2025.

Infiltration in Somalia’s military training academy?
[Garowe] On Wednesday, a suicide bomber targeted Jaalle Siyaad military training school, killing four soldiers after striking the vicinity of the facility within Somalia’s capital, Mogadishu, leading to questions about the safety of these vital installations.

Among the dead were junior officers attached to the 14 October Brigade, which was created in commemoration of the October 14th, 2017, attack at Mogadishu’s K-5 junction, where over 600 people were killed.

Somalia-based al-Shabaab militants claimed the attack, reporting that several people were killed and others injured. The group frequently targets military installations, including training schools and bases, as they advance their agenda.

But there are questions whether the al-Shabaab has infiltrated the military, given frequent attacks facing this particular facility, which trains thousands of junior officers in the country. For the last two years, it has borne the brunt of the attacks.

It’s the same brigade that an al-Shabaab suicide bomber targeted two years ago this month, killing 25 soldiers and injuring more than 70 others. The government arrested three soldiers in connection with the attack, but since then, no reports have been tabled publicly about their prosecution.

At that time, there were reports that the raid was instigated by insiders, leading to the death of 25 people. It is not clear why the Ministry of Defence and the army leadership have yet to publish the inquiry into the incident.

In April 2025, Colonel Nur Farey, the Commander of the 14th October Brigade, was killed by a man wearing a military uniform in the Addow Dibille area near Afgoye town, sources reported at that time.

Colonel Nur Farey was addressing soldiers when a man shouting a word repeatedly approached and fired shots, fatally injuring him. An Investigation is underway to determine if the man was a Shabaab infiltrator. Farey was leading mobilisations aimed at recapturing Awdhegle town from al-Shabaab, an official said

Reports later confirmed that the attacker was an Al-Shabaab infiltrator who had been training with the military. This particular incident triggered outcry with security experts warning that Al-Shabaab fighters may have made a massive infiltration in the security sector.

ISIS-aligned rebels kill 66 civilians in eastern Congo
[IsraelTimes] Rebels affiliated with the Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really 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 western pols talk they're not really Moslems....
group killed 66 people in eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo
...formerly the Congo Free State, Belgian Congo, Zaire, and who knows what else, not to be confused with the Brazzaville Congo aka Republic of Congo, which is much smaller and much more (for Africa) stable. DRC gave the world Patrice Lumumba and Joseph Mobutu, followed by years of tedious civil war. Its principle industry seems to be the production of corpses. With a population of about 74 million it has lots of raw material...
, local officials say.

Fighters with the Allied Democratic Forces
...established in the early 1990s through an agreement between portions of Uganda’s Salaf Tabliq Islamic sect and the National Army for the Liberation of Uganda (NALU), who said they had been sidelined by Museveni’s policies. At the time, the rebels staged deadly attacks in Ugandan villages and the capital, including a 1998 attack in which 80 students were massacred. A Ugandan military operation later forced the ADF into eastern Congo. The ADF has since established ties with the Islamic State group. The ADF has received funding from the Government of Sudan, which has also provided supplies and training. The ADF may also have received funding from the illegal mining and logging industries of the DRC....
(ADF), which has ties to ISIS, killed civilians in the area of Irumu in the east of the country bordering Uganda.

The attack comes as eastern Congo may see an end to its ongoing war with M23, a separate rebel group which is backed by Rwanda, another of Congo’s neighbors.

The ADF is a Ugandan Islamist group that operates on both sides of the mostly non-existent border.

All the victims, including women, were killed with machetes, says the president of a local civil society, Marcel Paluku. The number of people taken hostage is unknown.

The attack is suspected to be in response to an escalating bombing campaign by joint Congolese and Ugandan forces that started on Sunday.

Britain
UK cops arrest Palestine Action supporters demonstrating against terror proscription
[IsraelTimes] Anti-Israel group says more than 40 arrested during rallies to protest ban, which bars expressions of support for outlawed organizations

Police in London arrested dozens of protesters on a second successive Saturday for supporting Paleostine Action, campaigners said, a week after the UK government banned the activist group under anti-terror laws.

Campaign group Defend Our Juries, which had announced it would hold rallies Saturday in several UK cities "to defy" the ban, criticized the police response, saying law enforcement had arrested more than 40 people in the British capital.

"The Metropolitan Police were out in force again today, arresting more than 40 people in Parliament Square for holding signs opposed to genocide and supporting Paleostine Action," a spokesperson told AFP.

"Who do the police think they are serving in this?" the spokesperson added, calling the ban "Orwellian."

Footage showed police moving in on a small group of protesters displaying signs supporting Paleostine Action who had gathered at the steps of the Mahatma Gandhi statue in Parliament Square.

Those detained did not appear to put up any resistance.

The Met confirmed on X that its officers were "in the process of making arrests" after "responding to a protest in support of Paleostine Action."

Britannia’s Press Association (PA) news agency reported that an officer at the scene stated that 46 people were tossed into the calaboose for offenses mainly related to a section of the Terrorism Act.

The police’s actions come a week after the arrest of 29 people, including a priest and several health professionals, for offenses under the same law.

Since the ban came into effect on July 5, police have warned that expressing support for Paleostine Action is now a crime.

"It is a criminal offense to invite or express support for a proscribed organization," read a statement posted on X by the Met ahead of Saturday’s planned protests.

"As we saw last week, those who do breach the law will face action."

Paleostine Action’s proscription was approved by parliament in the first days of July, and a last-ditch High Court challenge failed to stop it from becoming law.

The government announced plans for the ban under the Terrorism Act days after the group’s activists claimed to be behind a break-in at an air force base in southern England. The group said it sprayed two aircraft with red paint, causing an estimated £7 million ($9.55 million) in damage. Four people charged in the incident remain in jug.

Paleostine Action has condemned the proscription, which makes it a criminal offense to belong to or support the group, punishable by up to 14 years in prison, as an attack on free speech.

Two Palestinians, including US citizen, killed by settlers in West Bank attack — PA
[IsraelTimes] No immediate reports of arrests after incident in Sinjil; Palestinian Authority health ministry says the Palestinian-American dual national ‘died after being severely beaten’

Two Paleostinians were killed by Israeli settlers during an attack in the West Bank on Friday, according to the Paleostinian Authority’s health ministry, in an incident the military said was under investigation.

A front man for the PA’s health ministry, Annas Abu El Ezz, told AFP that 23-year-old Saif al-Din Kamil Abdul Karim Musalat "died after being severely beaten all over his body by settlers in the town of Sinjil, north of Ramallah, this afternoon." Paleostinian media said Musalat was a dual Paleostinian-American citizen.

The PA’s health ministry later said a second man, 23-year-old Mohammad Shalabi, was fatally shot by settlers. Both Shulabi and Musalat were identified as residents of the nearby town of al-Mazra’a ash-Sharqiya.

Paleostinian media reported another 10 people were maimed.

The IDF said it was aware of reports that Paleostinians had been killed and maimed, adding that the matter was being probed by police and the Shin Bet.

The military said the incident began after Paleostinians hurled stones at Israelis near Sinjil, lightly injuring two civilians.

The ensuing "violent mostly peaceful confrontation... included vandalism of Paleostinian property, arson, physical festivities and rock hurling," the IDF said.

Upon receiving reports of violence, the IDF said, troops and coppers were dispatched to the scene to "disperse the clash," during which forces used riot dispersal means. There have been no arrests yet.

Asked for comment, the US State Department said it was "aware of reports of the death of a US citizen in the West Bank."

"We won’t comment further out of respect for the privacy of the family and loved ones," said a State Department spokesperson.

According to Paleostinian accounts, settlers were the ones who instigated the clash when Paleostinians tried to protest the establishment of a new illegal outpost adjacent to Sinjil, one of dozens that have mushroomed across the West Bank with little to no enforcement by Israeli authorities.

A group of Paleostinians had been trying to reach the hamlet of Khirbet al-Tal to protest the outpost built on the village’s land, which is located in Area B of the West Bank, where no settlements are supposed to exist.

But dozens of settlers blocked Paleostinians from trying to reach Khirbet al-Tal and began attacking them, the PA’s official WAFA news site said.

Footage posted on social media shows several masked settlers arriving in a vehicle armed with sticks. Another clip shows masked settlers hurling stones at Paleostinians.

According to Paleostinian media, settlers smashed the windows of a Paleostinian ambulance that had arrived at the scene to evacuate maimed Paleostinians.

AFP footage from after the attack showed the body of Musalat, who the PA said had been beaten to death, being carried through the streets draped in a Paleostinian flag and flanked by around a hundred mourners.

"The young man was injured and remained so for four hours. The army prevented us from reaching him and did not allow us to take him away," said Abdul Samad Abdul Aziz, from Musalat’s hometown of al-Mazraa al-Sharqiya. "When we finally managed to reach him, he was taking his last breath."

Dozens of Paleostinians and settlers also clashed in Sinjil last week, as Paleostinians were set to march there in protest of settler attacks on nearby farmland had been due to take place. Settlers accused Paleostinians, including a senior PA official, of vandalizing an outpost.

Israel, which controls the West Bank, recently erected a high fence cutting off parts of Sinjil from Road 60, which runs through the territory from north to south.

Meanwhile,
...back at the Senate, Tremulus continued with his speech against Varius and his cohorts, watching as his colleagues dropped off to sleep one by one...
footage from elsewhere in the West Bank on Friday purported to show Israeli troops blocking PA municipal workers from reaching a central West Bank water pipeline that settlers had allegedly dismantled to prevent water from reaching seven Paleostinian villages in the area.

While the troops in the video tell the Paleostinian workers that they may not proceed, bulldozers are seen operating freely, clearing ground for Israeli settlement expansion at a nearby hilltop.

The IDF did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Violence in the West Bank has spiked following the Hamas
..the well-beloved offspring of the Moslem Brotherhood,...
onslaught of October 7, 2023. Since then, troops have arrested some 6,000 wanted Paleostinians across the territory, including more than 2,350 affiliated with Hamas.

According to the PA health ministry, more than 950 West Bank Paleostinians have been killed in that time. The IDF says the vast majority of them were button men killed in exchanges of fire, rioters who clashed with troops or snuffies carrying out attacks.

During the same period, 53 people, including Israeli security personnel, have been killed in terror attacks in Israel and the West Bank. Another eight members of the security forces were killed in festivities with terror operatives in the West Bank.

Several IDF troops hurt in Gaza fighting as Palestinians reported killed at aid site
[IsraelTimes] Army reports the injured soldiers were moderately and lightly wounded in separate incidents; says unaware of any casualties near Gaza Humanitarian Foundation distribution hubs

The military announced that two soldiers were moderately hurt on Saturday in separate incidents during fighting 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...
, as fresh deaths were reported among Paleostinians at an aid distribution site.

One of the soldiers was hurt in the northern part of the coastal enclave, while the other was hurt in the southern part. In the latter incident, two other soldiers were lightly injured.

All four were taken to hospitals, and their families were notified.

The injuries came as the Israel Defense Forces said Saturday that over 250 terror targets in Gaza were hit in Arclight airstrike
...KABOOM!...
s since Thursday. A fresh wave of airstrikes Saturday evening hit over 35 targets in northern Gaza’s Beit Hanoun, the military said.

The IDF said the targets included operatives, booby-trapped buildings, weapon depots, anti-tank launch posts, sniper posts, tunnels, and other terror infrastructure.

At least 143 Paleostinians were killed in Gaza since Wednesday, according to statistics published by the Hamas
..the well-beloved offspring of the Moslem Brotherhood,...
-run health ministry on Friday night.

The strikes came as five IDF divisions, made up of tens of thousands of troops, continued to operate across Gaza.

In a statement on the Beit Hanoun strikes, which could be seen from across the border in Israel, the military said dozens of Israeli Air Force fighter jets hit some 35 Hamas targets in the area.

The targets included Hamas tunnels in the area, the IDF said.

Earlier, the military said troops of the 98th Division located 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...
observation posts and caches of bombs in Gaza City’s Shejaiya and Zeitoun neighborhoods.

Numerous operatives were killed elsewhere by the troops, including by calling in airstrikes, the IDF added.

MORE DEATHS REPORTED AT AID SITES
Paleostinian reports, meanwhile, said that aid seekers were rubbed out and injured Saturday around the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation facility in northwest Rafah, with the News Agency that Dare Not be Named quoting hospital officials and witnesses as saying that at least 24 people were killed.
Hamas has been getting busy with their guns, as they do every day that the people they own dare to get help from a group that doesn’t let them skim off the top, the bottom, and both sides..
The IDF pushed back on the Paleostinian reports, saying the military was unaware of any casualties from troops’ gunfire near GHF distribution sites on Saturday.

A military official did say that several suspects were spotted approaching forces in Rafah on Saturday, hundreds of meters from the aid site, and that "troops acted to prevent the suspects from approaching and fired warning shots. No injuries from the gunfire are known."

The IDF, in its statement, said it "continues to operate in order to enable the distribution of humanitarian aid in the Strip, and to allow passage to the distribution areas via organized and secured routes."

The statement added that the IDF is continuing to investigate the claims of injuries on Saturday near the aid site.

GHF, an Israeli-backed US organization that seeks to circumvent Hamas in the distribution of aid, has faced harsh criticism from the UN and other aid organizations, which charge that it fails to meet the needs of Gaza’s population. Gazooks have reported near-daily incidents in which groups trying to reach GHF facilities are shot at by Israeli forces, leading to mass casualties.

Israel, which accuses Hamas of hoarding aid, has also accused the terror group of attacking Gazook aid seekers near GHF sites and falsifying corpse counts. However,
you can observe a lot just by watching...
Israel has also acknowledged that "several" Paleostinian civilians have been killed near GHF aid distribution sites.

GHF commenced operations in May as Israel lifted a nearly three-month aid blockade on Gaza, amid a renewed offensive there that seeks to take over 75% of the Strip.

On Friday, the United Nations
...where theory meets practice and practice loses...
said nearly 800 people have died trying to access aid in Gaza since late May, with most killed near the GHF’s distribution sites.
Numbers supplied by Hamas are vary from exaggerated to greatly exaggerated, coupled with flat-out lies.
GHF, which denies that deadly incidents have occurred at its sites, told Rooters the UN figures were "false and misleading."

The IDF said Friday that it had issued instructions to troops in the field "following lessons learned" after reports of deadly incidents at GHF distribution facilities.

SWIMMING RESTRICTIONS
The IDF on Saturday also reiterated a restriction on Paleostinians, in place since the beginning of the war, forbidding them from entering the sea along the entire coast of the Gaza Strip. The IDF’s Arabic-language spokesperson, Col. Avichay Adraee, reminded residents in a post on X that "security restrictions have been imposed in the maritime area adjacent to the Strip, and entry into the sea is prohibited."

He added, "The IDF will respond to any violation of these restrictions. We urge fishermen, swimmers, and divers to refrain from entering the sea. Entering the sea along the Strip exposes you to danger."

Nevertheless, the IDF has not enforced the restriction against Paleostinians seeking to cool off in the waters on the beach, but only those heading out deeper into the sea.

The vast majority of the Paleostinian population in Gaza is concentrated in areas on the coast, with tent camps set up on the beaches.
