[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] A stabbing spree at a homeless shelter in downtown Salem, Oregon on Sunday left at least 11 people injured.
Salem Police said they responded to a call about a stabbing incident involving multiple victims at the Union Gospel Mission of Salem at around 7.15pm, the Statesman Journal reports.
Eleven people were then transported to Salem Health hospital with various injuries as the unidentified suspect was taken into custody.
Video posted online appeared to show officers apprehending a man lying facedown on the sidewalk.
The victims were described in emergency radio traffic as being inside the shelter, in front of the business and across the street.
One victim was also described as 'bleeding heavily from the neck,' according to the Statesman Journal.
The identity of the suspect and a motive for the attack remain unclear.
But witness Malik Law said he watched in horror as the man stabbed at least seven people.
'Everybody was basically trying to move out of his way,' Law told the Statesman Journal. 'He started attacking them.'

No decisions to be made by Israel as well: no visits to Germany so long as this government is in office.
[ApolloNews] Chief of Staff Thorsten Frei has not ruled out the arrest of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu if he sets foot on German soil. He stated that they respect "the independence of the International Criminal Court."
The topic of Israel is causing conflict within the CDU/CSU: Following the anti-Israel speeches by Friedrich Merz and Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul this week, there has been internal party criticism of the statements made by the Chancellor and Foreign Minister. A dispute that even Thorsten Frei, a close confidant of Merz and well-connected, apparently cannot resolve: In an interview with the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, the CDU's head of the Chancellery also failed to take a clear position on the question of the CDU's position on Israel and its war against the terrorist group Hamas.
The 51-year-old repeatedly evaded the question of whether Germany would defy the International Criminal Court's arrest warrant against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and whether he would still be welcome in Germany. Frei initially only said: "The elected Prime Minister of Israel is, of course, always a dialogue partner of the German Federal Government" – no clear commitment. When the journalist asked him whether this would not answer the question, Frei simply replied with a postponement: "There is currently no visit to Israel planned; nor vice versa. Therefore, no decisions need to be made," Frei said.
The decision is certainly relevant now – especially because the coalition partner SPD is increasingly using harsher language against Israel and Merz, with his accusation that the Israeli army is breaking international law in the Gaza Strip, has at least caused decades of support for Israel and raison d'état to crumble ( Apollo News reported), if not even a historic low point in German-Israeli relations.
Frei also evades the commitment to Israel in the following questions: "In principle, Germany still respects the independence of the International Criminal Court and its procedural processes, as well as those of all other international courts," is the CDU politician's next response to the question of whether relations with Israel would ultimately take precedence over international law. Frei's answer, decoded, is: We will listen to the International Criminal Court's ruling, but since Netanyahu isn't visiting Germany, we don't even have to ask ourselves whether he will actually be arrested. That's not a convincing expression of solidarity.
[IsraelTimes] Indictment says Yehezkel Moshe and Jihad Wazuz sold hundreds of tons of chemicals to agricultural supply businesses in the West Bank, some of which were sold on to terrorists
Two Israeli men were indicted Sunday on charges of weapons transactions and violating defense export controls, for allegedly selling and transporting hundreds of tons of dual-use chemicals into the Palestinian Authority without authorization and while making efforts to conceal their activities.
Yehezkel Moshe, 66, from Moshav Pedaya, was named as the first defendant, and Jihad Wazuz, 43, of East Jerusalem, as the second.
The indictment noted that four terror attacks were carried out in the West Bank between March and August 2024 using explosives made of dual-use materials. And it stated that a Palestinian agricultural supply store owner in Hebron who purchased dual-use chemicals from Moshe was arrested in September 2024 for selling such chemicals to a terror cell, which then made bombs used in those terror attacks.
According to the indictment, Moshe and Wazuz allegedly formed a criminal conspiracy to import thousands of sacks of potassium nitrate, calcium, sulfur, and other dual-use chemicals that can be used to make explosives, starting some time in 2019.
They continued these activities even after the outbreak of war following the October 7, 2023, Hamas attack, and even after they became aware that their chemicals were being used for terror purposes, the indictment alleged.
As well as having his own agricultural supply business, Moshe worked under a franchise for the agricultural supply company Amir.
The indictment alleged that he diverted some of the dual-use chemicals he obtained from Amir, without permission, and designated in documentation as being destined for a private Israeli company based in the Gush Etzion settlement bloc in the West Bank.
It said he falsified the documentation in order to disguise his actions and prevent inspectors at crossings into the West Bank from identifying the dual-use items as problematic.
In order to transport the chemicals to the recipients in the Palestinian Authority, Wazuz would bring his truck to Moshav Pedaya, load the chemicals onto it, and bring the cargo into the West Bank with the use of the fraudulent documentation.
The chemicals were then sold to various agricultural supply stores in the West Bank “without the ability to oversee that the chemicals would be used for agricultural purposes alone.”
The owner of the Hebron agricultural supply business was arrested in September 2024 for supplying the terrorist cell with the dual-use chemicals he bought from Moshe.
The indictment alleges that Moshe became aware that the man had been arrested and that the chemicals had been used for making explosives, but continued to sell and transport the materials to Palestinians, doing so on at least six additional occasions.
“In their actions… the defendants assisted in the production of weapons, with the aim of advancing the activities of a terrorist organization, or the commission of a terrorist act, or assisting in such activities or their commission,” the indictment said.
[IsraelTimes] Sheikh Ahmed Zoud recently retracted claim that Jews are bloodthirsty and treacherous, but new statements raise questions as to whether he is using dog whistle to continue preaching hate
An Australian imam who recently apologized for a 2023 sermon vilifying Jews has now called for Allah to “kill all” oppressors, in language interpreted by some as coded antisemitism.
In December 2023, Sheikh Ahmed Zoud said in a sermon recorded at his Masjid as-Sunnah Lakemba Mosque in Sydney that Jews were bloodthirsty, treacherous “monsters” who “ran like rats” when Hamas launched its war on Israel on October 7, 2023.
Zoud said in the sermon, broadcast live on the mosque’s Facebook page, that “betrayal and treachery are among the characteristics of the Jews.
“From an early age, they raise their children on violence, terrorism and killing,” he added. “Jews remain Jews. They are not changed by the passing of time.”
Several months after the broadcast, in March 2024, the Executive Council of Australian Jewry (ECAJ) filed a complaint with the Australian Human Rights Commission (AHRC), alleging that Zoud made derogatory generalizations about the Jewish people and used dehumanizing language, in contravention of the country’s Racial Discrimination Act of 1975.
Following the AHRC hearing and in resolution of the complaint, Zoud and the mosque both issued apologies in recent weeks.
“I recognize that my speech contained harmful, offensive and dehumanizing generalizations about Jewish people, falsely portraying them as inherently violent, treacherous, hateful, arrogant, scheming and collectively responsible for historical crimes and transgressions,” Zoud said in a written apology. “I did not intend to make such a sweeping generalization. I did not seek to harm Jewish people based on their race or religion.”
A separate statement from the Masjid as-Sunnah Lakemba Mosque “fully acknowledges that the comments about Jewish people (as distinct from the comments about the Israeli military and government) were not only inappropriate but can also breach Australian laws and offend, insult, humiliate, or intimidate Jewish Australians.” The mosque apologized for publishing the speech on its Facebook page, and said it removed the video when it became aware of the concern.
ECAJ said the “unreserved and unconditional” apologies included a commitment by Zoud not to make such statements again in the future. The representative organization for Australia’s Jews accepted the apology.
“This is a welcome admission of wrongdoing by Ahmed Zoud, and we hope that it will serve as an example for the future about the limits of freedom of expression,” ECAJ CEO Peter Wertheim said then.
However, The Australian has reported that Zoud in recent days issued a public prayer in which he called on Allah to “deal with the tyrants and the oppressors,” asking him to “count [them] one by one, kill them all and leave none of them behind.”
The newspaper noted that while Zoud didn’t mention Jews in his latest comments, he had committed in his apology not to use language that “could be interpreted as targeting Jewish people as a whole.”
ECAJ said the latter speech was “an entirely separate matter” from the prior complaint but expressed concern over Zoad’s continued attacks.
“We expect the terms on which that complaint was resolved to be honored,” Wertheim said in a statement Sunday. “In particular, we expect that Ahmed Zoud will adhere to the undertakings that he has given, and this includes not making or publishing any statement which makes derogatory generalizations about Jews, including statements which attribute to Jews, as a group, characteristics that vilify and demonize.
“If those undertakings are not adhered to, we will have no hesitation in availing ourselves of legal remedies to enforce them,” Wertheim added.
ECAJ has also filed a complaint against another Islamic preacher, Wissam Haddad (also known as Abu Ousayd), over speeches made at West Sydney’s Al Madina Dawah Center late last year. Haddad allegedly described Jews as a “vile people” and a “treacherous people,” and claimed that “their hands are in everywhere – in businesses … in the media.” A hearing for that case is scheduled for next month, ECAJ said.
Australia’s 120,000-strong Jewish community has faced relentless antisemitism since Hamas attacked Israel on October 7, 2023. The country experienced more than 2,000 anti-Jewish incidents between October 2023 and September 2024, more than quadruple the number from the year before, according to ECAJ.
A wave of antisemitic incidents in Australia has sent shockwaves throughout the country in recent months.
In December, the Adass Israel Synagogue in Melbourne was firebombed. In January, the former home of ECAJ Co-CEO Alex Ryvchin was vandalized with antisemitic graffiti, and two cars were set on fire in an attack many believe targeted him. In February, a video of two nurses in a Sydney hospital threatening to kill Israeli patients and saying they would refuse to treat them shocked the nation, and later that month, police discovered a trailer in Sydney packed with enough explosives to cause a mass-casualty event, believed at the time to be intended for a Sydney synagogue.
After left-leaning Prime Minister Anthony Albanese won a second term in elections last month, Jewish leaders have expressed hope that he will do more to fight antisemitism in the country during his coming term.
Why on earth would they expect something so unrealistic? Better to brace for him to act like he has a mandate to act worse.
[NAHARNET] Hezbollah MP Hassan Fadlallah on Saturday said ''the stances we're hearing from some of the government components do not only contravene the Ministerial Statement, but are against it and its total opposite.''
These stances ''evade the responsibilities that were pledged to the Lebanese people,'' Fadlallah added.
He noted that the first three clauses of the Ministerial Statement talk about post-war reconstruction, deterring Israel and taking steps to liberate Israeli-occupied Lebanese territory.
''But what have they done regarding these three clauses? Has the government implemented what it had committed itself to in the reconstruction file? There are five or six clauses that should be implemented before tackling the issue of defending Lebanon, which requires a national security strategy,'' Fadlallah added, referring to the thorny issue of Hezbollah's arms.
''Let no one ask us to implement the Ministerial Statement in a reversed manner, in a way putting the cart before the horse. Implement your obligations first and then request things from us, because we no longer have anything to offer to anyone in any form, neither in south Lebanon, nor outside south Lebanon, nor in any region, because we have offered what we have and we've implemented what we had committed ourselves to on all levels,'' the lawmaker went on to say.
''According to the constitutional and legal texts, the incumbent government is obliged to implement the stipulations of this Ministerial Statement, and we have no other words about anything else. When they implement these clauses we would talk about the other things,'' Fadlallah added.
Mohamad Soliman, the Muslim man who carried out the Islamic terrorist attack in Colorado today, appears to be an immigrant from Kuwait who recently arrived in the US under Joe Biden’s open border policies 2 YEARS AGO.
… A professional profile for a man who has his same name and looks just like him says he works in finance, digital marketing, and international financial reporting. He also appears to have at least one daughter who is studying in the United States in Colorado.
He speaks English and Arabic.

BREAKING: Three senior DHS sources tell @FoxNews that the Boulder terror suspect is an Egyptian national in the U.S. illegally as a visa overstay who entered the U.S. during the Biden administration. I’m told Mohamed Sabry Soliman arrived at LAX on 8/27/22 on a B1/B2 nonimmigrant…
…on a B1/B2 nonimmigrant visa with an authorized stay through 2/26/23, but he overstayed & never left.
I’m told on 9/29/22, he filed some sort of claim with USCIS, potentially an asylum claim, and on 3/29/23, USCIS under the Biden admin gave him work authorization, which expired on 3/28/25.
Molotov cocktail attack Boulder, pro-Israel rally violence, suspect identified Boulder 2025
[CountyLocalNews] On June 1, 2025, a shocking incident occurred in Boulder, Colorado, when authorities identified Mohamad Soliman as the suspect involved in throwing a Molotov cocktail at a pro-Israel walk. This disturbing act of violence resulted in injuries to multiple individuals attending the event.
The pro-Israel walk in Boulder was intended to be a peaceful demonstration, aimed at expressing solidarity with Israel amidst ongoing geopolitical tensions. However, the atmosphere quickly shifted to one of chaos and fear when Soliman allegedly hurled a Molotov cocktail into the crowd. The explosive device ignited, leading to injuries among attendees and prompting an immediate response from local law enforcement.
Witnesses reported a scene filled with panic as people scrambled for safety. Emergency services were dispatched swiftly to the location, providing medical assistance to the injured and working to secure the area. The Boulder police are actively investigating the incident, and Soliman’s motives remain unclear, although authorities are treating this act as a serious crime.
Activists rallying for the release of the Israeli hostages 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... were targeted in a Molotov cocktailing attack on Sunday, which the FBI said it was investigating as an act of terrorism.
Six people aged 67-88 were maimed in the attack, FBI Special Agent Mark Michalek said at a presser. One of the maimed is at death's door.
The suspect is in jug and was identified as Mohammed Sabry Soliman, 45.
Witnesses told Sherlocks that Soliman attacked the demonstrators with a "makeshift flamethrower" and threw an incendiary device, Michalek said. Boulder Police Chief Steve Redfearn said the suspect hurled Molotov cocktails at the demonstrators.
"It is clear that this is a targeted act of violence and the FBI is investigating this as an act of terrorism," Michalek said.
A joint statement from Boulder Jewish community groups said that an incendiary device had been thrown at participants in a hostage rally by a group called Run for Their Lives. Chapters of the group hold weekly events around the US to raise awareness about the hostages.
In footage said to be from the scene of the attack, a shirtless man screamed "End Zionists" while holding what appear to be Molotov cocktails. The man also shouted, "Paleostine is free."
At least one person was lying on the ground being tended to by bystanders as a police officer approached the shirtless man and cuffed his hands behind his back, the video showed.
"We are aware of and fully investigating a targeted terror attack in Boulder, Colorado," FBI chief Kash Patel said on X, adding that "our agents and local law enforcement are on the scene already, and we will share updates as more information becomes available."
Redfearn said at an earlier presser that at 1:26 p.m. local time, police received calls that there was a "man with a weapon" near the county courthouse on 13th and Pearl St. and that "people were being set on fire."
When police arrived at the scene shortly thereafter, they encountered "multiple victims" with injuries "consistent with burns," Redfearn said.
The victims were evacuated to a nearby Boulder Community Health medical center for treatment, Redfearn said, adding that a number of them apparently suffered "life-threatening" injuries.
Shortly after arriving on the scene, a suspect was pointed out to officers who managed to apprehend him, Redfearn said.
Redfearn confirmed that a pro-Israel peaceful demonstration was taking place in the area, as it frequently does.
Update at 11:30 a.m. EDT: The Daily Mail has more photos, courtesy of Skidmark. It seems the local police chief tried to claim unknown motive, but the FBI was firm that it was terror, so the police chief surrendered.

[RIA] The Defense Ministry reported terrorist attacks by the Ukrainian Armed Forces on airfields. Key statements:
Kiev carried out a terrorist attack using FPV drones against airfields in the Murmansk, Irkutsk, Ivanovo, Ryazan and Amur regions;
At military airfields in the Ivanovo, Ryazan and Amur regions, all terrorist attacks were repelled;
In the Murmansk and Irkutsk regions, as a result of the launch of FPV drones from the territory located in the immediate vicinity of airfields, several units of aircraft caught fire;
The fires have been extinguished;
There were no casualties among military personnel or civilians;
Some of the participants in the terrorist attacks have been detained.
Russian military journalist Boris Rozhin adds:
[ColonelCassad] P.S. One of the trucks that was supposed to attack the Ukrainka airfield in the Amur region exploded before it reached it.
P.S. 2. I think we will see the exact number of burned/damaged vehicles in the next 24 hours on satellite images of the attacked airbases.
P.S. 3. The trucks were equipped with drones at a rented warehouse in Chelyabinsk. It has already been found.
Even more from the V Kontake page of Tatyana Vasilyeva ‼⚡⚡⚡🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺⭕️ ⭕️ ⭕️About the scale of the damage:
In the Murmansk region, at the Olenya airfield, fires were recorded on four Tu-95s. At the Belaya airfield, where the Tu-22M3 and Tu-95MS were located, five columns of smoke were also noticed.
In the Amur region, it was not possible to carry out an attack - a truck with a UAV caught fire on the road. The sought-after target, apparently, was the Ukrainka airfield, where strategic aviation is also based.
There were reports of a UAV threat at airfields in the Ryazan and Ivanovo regions, but there was no footage of explosions or burning aircraft from there. Later, the Ministry of Defense reported that the attacks were repelled.
Information about the landings in Severomorsk and Voskresensk is also not true - moments of explosions at Olenya were passed off as footage of "landings".
The Ministry of Defense admitted the loss of equipment at Olenya and Belaya. At the same time, they added that there were no casualties among personnel or civilians.
In the evening, information appeared that the workshop for assembling and installing drones on a container was located in the Chelyabinsk region.

[Regnum] Negotiations between the delegations of Russia and Ukraine will take place, despite recent events. This was stated by a member of the Russian negotiating group, Deputy Minister of Defense Alexander Fomin.
“Negotiations will be held,” RIA Novosti quotes Fomin as saying.
The Russian delegation arrived in Istanbul on the evening of June 1. Earlier, the Turkish Foreign Ministry reported that the start of the second round of direct Russian-Ukrainian talks is scheduled for 13:00 Moscow time on June 2. The meeting is expected to take place in Istanbul's Ciragan Palace. The composition of the delegation remains the same. It will also be headed by Russian presidential aide Vladimir Medinsky.
As reported by the Regnum news agency, on June 1, the press service of the Russian Defense Ministry reported that the Kiev regime had carried out terrorist attacks against five Russian airfields : in the Murmansk, Irkutsk, Ivanovo, Ryazan and Amur regions. The attacks were carried out using FPV drones, which are controlled by an operator from the pilot's point of view, thanks to real-time video.
In addition, Ukrainian troops attacked an industrial zone in the city of Krasnodon in the Luhansk People's Republic with Storm Shadow missiles.
The Kiev regime did not ignore the emergency situations with trains in the Bryansk and Kursk regions. The official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, called Ukraine's reaction to the tragedies gloating and "hellish joy."
All events took place a day before a new round of negotiations between delegations from Moscow and Kiev. In Istanbul on June 2, the parties intend to exchange memoranda with their proposals to eliminate the main causes of the Ukrainian crisis and the terms of a ceasefire.
Dmitry Suslov, Deputy Director of the HSE Center for Comprehensive European and International Studies, told Regnum that the terrorist attacks are aimed at turning the US against Russia again. He emphasizes that the timing is chosen in such a way as to either disrupt the negotiations and thereby prompt US President Donald Trump to impose tougher sanctions on Russia, following the example of the Biden administration, or to provoke Moscow into taking tough retaliatory measures.
The American administration had no information about the Kiev regime's plans to organize a massive UAV attack on military airfields in Russian regions on Sunday, June 1. This was reported by CBS White House correspondent Jennifer Jacobs.
"Administration sources told CBS News that the White House had no knowledge of the preparation of today's large-scale Ukrainian drone attack on Russian military aircraft," she wrote on the social network X.
At the same time, the Axios portal earlier on June 1 claimed that the Ukrainian authorities notified Washington of their intention to carry out a massive attack on the Russian Federation. It was also noted that the Ukrainian special services had allegedly been developing this operation for more than a year.
As reported by the Regnum news agency, on the evening of June 1, the Russian Defense Ministry reported that Kiev had used FPV drones to carry out terrorist attacks on airfields located in the Murmansk, Irkutsk, Ivanovo, Ryazan and Amur regions. Several aircraft caught fire at their bases in the Murmansk and Irkutsk regions. No information was received about the dead or injured.
The military department also specified that the drones were launched from areas in close proximity to airfields. Some of the participants in the terrorist attacks were detained by law enforcement officers.
The press service of the Main Military Prosecutor's Office of the Russian Federation reported that military prosecutors have begun inspections at military facilities that were subjected to the Ukrainian attack. Specialists have traveled to the scene of the incidents, where oversight activities have been organized.

[IsraelTimes] Climate campaigner Greta Thunberg and other activists set sail from Sicily to Gaza on a ship aimed at protesting Israel’s war in the territory. Hope the bitch can float. Or not
The trip is organized by the Freedom Flotilla
…a project of Turkey’s IHH Humanitarian Relief Foundation, a semi-official "charity" branch of the Erdogan government that links the government, the Turkish branch of the Muslim Brotherhood, and pet jihadi groups like ISIS in Syria, or in this case Hamas. IHH puts together a Freedom Flotilla every few years, hoping for publicity like the Mavi Mara incident from the first one in 2010.
coalition, which for more than a decade has sent ships to the coastal enclave in declared opposition to Israeli blockades there.
Rima Hassan, a European Parliament member taking part in the new trip, said Friday the operation had “several aims: to condemn the humanitarian blockade and ongoing genocide, the impunity granted to the state of Israel and raise international awareness.”
Another Freedom Flotilla ship was blocked in Turkey in April after Guinea-Bisseau withdrew its flag, and the vessel was later struck by armed drones, according to its organizers.
In May 2010, another, much-remembered “Gaza Freedom Flotilla” organized by the same coalition was intercepted by the Israeli Navy. After the convoy refused orders to reroute to Ashdod, Israeli commandos boarded one of the ships, the Mavi Marmara, which was carrying over 600 passengers. After being met with violent resistance, the commandos opened fire, killing 10 Turkish activists. Ten Israeli soldiers were wounded during the attack.
An international flotilla carrying humanitarian aid and activists, including climate campaigner Greta "Pippi" Thunberg ...an autistic sixteen year old Swedish expert on climate change, though I guess she's older now... and "Game of Thrones" actor Liam Cunningham, set sail Sunday from the southern Italian port of Catania, aiming to reach the 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... Strip by sea in defiance of Israel’s naval blockade.
The boat, named Madleen, is operated by the Freedom Flotilla Coalition (FFC), a nonprofit group that has long sought to challenge Israeli control of maritime access to Gaza. Organizers say the mission is "not charity," but a form of nonviolent mostly peaceful protest against what they described as "Israel’s illegal siege and escalating war crimes."
Thunberg, who rose to global prominence as a teenage environmental activist, broke down in tears during a presser ahead of the departure.
"We are doing this because no matter what odds we are against, we have to keep trying, because the moment we stop trying is when we lose our humanity," she said. "No matter how dangerous this mission is, it is nowhere near as dangerous as the silence of the entire world in the face of the lives being genocized [sic]."
Israel strongly denies accusations of "genocide," calling them a modern-day blood libel and part of a broader campaign to delegitimize the Jewish state. Officials maintain that the naval blockade, in place since 2007, is a necessary security measure to prevent weapons smuggling to Hamas ..a contraction of the Arabic words for "frothing at the mouth",... , the terror group that rules Gaza.
The latest voyage comes after a failed flotilla attempt in June, when another FFC vessel, the Conscience, was struck by two drones in international waters near Malta. While the group accused Israel of being behind the attack, Jerusalem has not publicly commented on the incident.
The Madleen is carrying what FFC described as "limited... though symbolic" barrels of aid.
So this is just theater, another temper tantrum by attention-seeking idiots who don’t actually care if they drive the changes their screeching demands, so long as people pay attention to them screeching. What a bore.
Among the dozen international volunteers aboard are French-Paleostinian European Parliament member Rima Hassan, who has been barred from entering Israel, and Brazilian activist Thiago Avila.
The activists estimate the journey will take about a week, unless intercepted. Israel has previously halted similar flotillas attempting to breach its naval blockade.
Speaking Sunday, Avila framed the flotilla as part of a larger international push to pressure Israel.
"We are breaking the siege of Gaza by sea, but that’s part of a broader strategy of mobilizations that will also attempt to break the siege by land," he said, referencing the upcoming "Global March to Gaza," a protest initiative set to reach the Rafah crossing from Egypt in mid-June.
As of Sunday evening, Israeli officials had not publicly addressed the latest flotilla’s departure.

[SUDANTRIBUNE] At least 89 people were killed Saturday following an air strike by Sudan ...a Moslem country located in the Horn of Africa. It is noted for its affinity for rule by ex- or current generals, its holy men, and for the oppression of the native Afro population by its Arab conquerors. South Sudan, populated mostly by the natives, split off from Sudan proper, which left North and South Darfur to be oppressed by the guys with turbans... ese army warplanes targeting a crowded civilian market in North Darfur state.
The Sudanese army had halted continuous air raids in the Darfur region since April, after the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) announced they had shot down two aircraft, one in El Fasher, North Darfur, and another in Nyala, South Darfur.
A statement issued by the al-Koma Emergency Room reported that ''at least 89 people were killed in a bombing carried out by an army aircraft targeting al-Koma town in North Darfur state.''
Local sources and eyewitnesses told ''Sudan Tribune'' that a drone was seen flying at a high altitude before firing approximately three missiles that struck al-Koma's market, a densely populated civilian area. This resulted in a large number of casualties, injuries, and fires igniting in widespread sections of the market.
Al-Koma, located east of El Fasher and under the control of the RSF, is one of the most frequently targeted areas in Darfur by army aircraft, with over 200 aerial sorties, according to local leaders.

[SUDANTRIBUNE] At least 13 civilians, including a medical worker, were killed on Saturday during attacks launched by the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) in areas of West and South Kordofan states.
The RSF committed widespread abuses against civilians, including killings, looting, and forced displacement, after gaining control of al-Dabibat, al-Hammadi, and Kazgail in South Kordofan, as well as al-Khawi locality and its surrounding villages in West Kordofan.
Local sources told Sudan ...a Moslem country located in the Horn of Africa. It is noted for its affinity for rule by ex- or current generals, its holy men, and for the oppression of the native Afro population by its Arab conquerors. South Sudan, populated mostly by the natives, split off from Sudan proper, which left North and South Darfur to be oppressed by the guys with turbans... Tribune that RSF forces ''attacked the Tabaldiya area, north of al-Dabibat city, firing indiscriminately at civilians, which led to the killing of at least two people and the injury of three others.''
They indicated that the campaign of storming villages in the rural areas of al-Goz locality included al-Kureib village, where two people were killed and others injured.
The sources reported that the RSF assassinated medical assistant Abdelbaqi Mohammed Ahmed with a direct shot to the head, while his two sons, Yassin and Mohammed, sustained severe injuries in al-Hammadi town.

...back at the secret hideout, Scarface Al sneeringly put his proposition to little Nell... Dar Hamar Emergency Room stated that RSF forces ''executed about 8 citizens of al-Khawi city.'' The statement added that the RSF launched a widespread arrest campaign in al-Khawi, targeting dozens of young men, before looting homes, the main market, and solar power systems.
The fierce battles in South and West Kordofan have forced thousands of citizens to flee from al-Dabibat city and its surrounding villages — al-Hammadi, Kazgail, Umm Shalakhti, Soshai, al-Abnawiya, Karkariya, al-Furqan, Hillat al-Mahdi, Umm Darasaya, and Umm Arada — walking towards EL-OBEID city in North Kordofan.

[IsraelTimes] A ballistic missile launched at Israel by the Iran-backed 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... s in 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... was successfully intercepted by air defenses, the military said Sunday, in what has recently become an almost daily occurrence.
The missile set off sirens shortly after 4:50 p.m. across central Israel, the Jerusalem area and several West Bank settlements, sending millions to bomb shelters a few hours before the start of the Shavuot holiday.
Preceding the sirens by about four minutes, an early warning was issued by the Home Front Command to residents, alerting them of the long-range missile attack via a push notification on their phones.
There were no reports of injuries or damage in the attack.
The Houthis took responsibility for the missile fire, claiming to have targeted Ben Gurion Airport. Earlier this month, a Houthi missile slipped through air defenses and hit the grounds of the airport, injuring six people, none of them seriously.
[IsraelTimes] Khalil Abed al-Nasser Mohammad Hatib, commander of January 2024 attack that killed 21 reservists, targeted in drone strike called in by soldiers who ID’d him, according to IDF
A Hamas

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... , the deadliest attack on IDF soldiers during the war, was eliminated in a dronezap over the weekend, the military and Shin Bet said Sunday, as dozens of Paleostinians were reportedly killed in Israeli strikes across the enclave.
Troops of the 414th Combat Intelligence Collection Unit identified Khalil Abed al-Nasser Mohammad Hatib on Friday and called in the dronezap that killed him, the IDF said.
On January 22, 2024, a cell commanded by Hatib in Hamas’s Maghazi Battalion carried out an RPG attack against troops operating near the Israeli border, according to the military. The RPGs hit two buildings that had been rigged up for detonation and a tank guarding the forces, killing 21 reservists.
It was the highest number of Israeli troops killed in a single attack since October 7, 2023, when thousands of Hamas-led gunnies stormed southern Israel to kill some 1,200 people and take 251 hostages, sparking the war in the Gaza Strip. Israel has lost 416 soldiers in the ensuing offensive, as well as two coppers and three Defense Ministry civilian contractors.
Last month, Israel announced it was launching a renewed offensive in a bid to seize 75 percent of the Strip.
According to the military, Israeli Air Force strikes over the past day hit dozens of targets in Gaza, including terror operatives, booby-trapped structures and other buildings used by terror groups, tunnels, and sniper and anti-tank posts.

Translated from Hebrew by
The IDF and Shin Bet eliminated the terrorist who commanded the terrorist squad that led to the killing of 21 IDF fighters on January 22, 2024.
Over the weekend (Friday), in a joint operation by the IDF and Shin Bet, an aircraft attacked and killed, under the direction of the Southern Brigade in the Gaza Division, the terrorist Khalil Abd al-Nasser Muhammad Khatib, a squad commander in the al-Ma'azi Brigade of the Hamas terrorist organization.
After concentrating an intelligence effort and using a collection team from Unit 414, the fighters identified the terrorist and targeted an aircraft that attacked and eliminated him.
Khalil commanded a terrorist squad that launched anti-tank missiles at buildings where our forces were operating and at a tank crew that was securing them, in the Al-Maghazi area on January 22, 2024. As a result, 21 IDF fighters were killed.
In addition, during the war, the terrorist promoted and took part in many other terrorist plots against our forces.
The IDF and Shin Bet will continue to operate against terrorist organizations in the Gaza Strip in order to remove any threat to the citizens of the State of Israel.
Meanwhile,
...back at the wrecked scow, Agent 49 felt gingerly for his head. It was still there. He had been hoping differently... during operations in southern Gaza’s Khan Younis, troops demolished the remains of a booby-trapped building where Staff Sgt. Danilo Mocanu was killed on May 20, when a bomb planted by terror operatives partially brought down the structure with him inside.
Also in Khan Younis, soldiers of the 7th Armored Brigade and the Yahalom combat engineering commando unit located and demolished a 700-meter (0.4-mile)-long Hamas tunnel, the IDF said, publishing footage of the blast. According to the military, the tunnel was some 30 meters (98 feet) underground.
During the operations, according to the IDF, troops spotted a cell of three operatives who were moving bombs in order to booby-trap an unspecified site. The forces called in a dronezap, killing the three operatives, the IDF said, publishing video of the incident, which showed the targets carrying large bundles on foot.
The military added that troops operating in Khan Younis have killed dozens of terror operatives, and destroyed over 100 sites used by terror groups, including by calling in Arclight airstrike ...KABOOM!... s.
WAFA, the Paleostinian Authority’s official news agency, reported eight people killed in an Israeli strike on a vehicle in Khan Younis, five people killed in a bombing of a house in central Gaza’s Nuseirat refugee camp, and a child killed in an artillery attack on Gaza City’s Tel al-Hawa neighborhood, in the Strip’s north.
The IDF did not immediately comment on the reported strikes. The military has said it seeks to minimize civilian casualties, including by using surveillance and issuing warning calls, and has accused Hamas of using Gaza’s civilians as a human shield and fighting out of civilian infrastructure, including hospitals and schools.
The corpse count reported by WAFA was in addition to Paleostinian reports of 31 people killed near an Israel- and US-backed aid distribution hub in southern Gaza’s Rafah.
The IDF did not explicitly deny there had been gunfire in the area, but said it was unaware of any injuries "within" the aid site. Witnesses said Israeli forces fired on crowds around a kilometer away from the aid site hours before the distribution took place.
The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, the US- and Israel-backed agency meant to circumvent Hamas in the distribution of aid, pushed back on the reports, saying that its "aid was again distributed today without incident." The organization accused Hamas of fabricating the reports, and published some 15 minutes of footage ostensibly showing that no Paleostinian civilians were shot at the site at the reported time of the killings.
The Hamas-run health ministry says more than 54,000 people in the Strip have been killed or are presumed dead in the fighting so far. The toll cannot be verified and does not differentiate between civilians and fighters. Israel says it has killed some 20,000 combatants in battle as of January and another 1,600 gunnies inside Israel during the October 7 onslaught.

[Regnum] After a powerful solar flare on May 31, a plasma cloud reached Earth earlier than scientists predicted. This was announced on June 1 by Sergei Bogachev, head of the Solar Astronomy Laboratory at the Space Research Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences.
"According to the readings of space tracking devices, a plasma cloud ejected by the Sun yesterday has reached Earth. An exceptionally strong jump in all parameters of the interplanetary environment was recorded today at 08:30 Moscow time," he noted.
The scientist explained that at the moment the speed of the solar wind sometimes exceeds 1000 km/s. In addition, very high values of density and temperature have been recorded. At the same time, the plasma cloud has covered the distance from the Sun to the Earth almost a day faster than predicted.
He also added that if a large portion of the plasma has approached the Earth, then magnetic storms of the fifth, highest level will almost inevitably begin by the evening of June 1.
On May 31, Bogachev reported that, according to preliminary data, the gas cloud is expected to arrive at Earth on June 1 at about 16:00 Moscow time. Astronomers have named a magnetic storm at the G4 level as the most likely scenario. Due to the magnetic storm, serious interference in radio communications, disruptions to satellite and radio frequency navigation, and polar lights are expected, which can be observed even at tropical latitudes.
The level of the magnetic storm that began on Earth on June 1 may intensify from category G4 (very strong) to the maximum G5 (extremely strong). This was warned by scientists from the Laboratory of X-ray Astronomy of the Sun of the Space Research Institute and the Institute of Solar-Terrestrial Physics of the Russian Academy of Sciences.
"The planetary index Kp is currently at level G4. Although yesterday such indicators would have looked exceptionally large, now it is clear that we are talking about playing for completely different stakes, and the question is whether the geomagnetic index will reach level 5 in the coming hours," the laboratory's website says.
It is noted that in recent hours the speed of the solar wind outside the Earth's magnetosphere has exceeded 1000 km/s. It periodically rises to 1100 km/s and goes beyond the charts. Also, specialists from time to time record "unreal values" of temperature in the flow of solar plasma that covered the Earth.
The main mystery for experts is the low plasma density, despite the very large ejection. But this explains the high temperatures in the flow.
"The general impression is that the Earth was hit by a very wide, fast, but almost empty tube of twisted magnetic field. The low density partially explains the high temperature values, since with a small number of particles the very concept of temperature loses its meaning, and the chaotic (real thermal) component of the velocity is isolated with very large errors," the scientists said.
The laboratory noted that science is currently only able to observe what is happening.
As reported by IA Regnum, on May 31, scientists recorded the largest emission on the Sun since the beginning of the year. In this case, the plasma flew towards the Earth. The power of the flow is only slightly less than that of the flow in May 2024, which caused a magnetic storm of the fifth category on the planet.
The plasma cloud traveled towards Earth at a speed of over 1,000 km/s. It reached the planet almost a day earlier than scientists had predicted.
[SUDANTRIBUNE] The Sudan ...a Moslem country located in the Horn of Africa. It is noted for its affinity for rule by ex- or current generals, its holy men, and for the oppression of the native Afro population by its Arab conquerors. South Sudan, populated mostly by the natives, split off from Sudan proper, which left North and South Darfur to be oppressed by the guys with turbans... ese army launched dronezaps on Rapid Support Forces (RSF) positions in Nyala, the capital of South Darfur state, for a second consecutive day on Saturday, sources said.
The RSF has been using Nyala Airport, which reopened in September 2024, to smuggle gold from the Sengho and Redoum mines in South Darfur, evacuate maimed fighters, transport their commanders, and receive military supplies, according to the sources.
The airport had been closed since the conflict erupted in April 2023. The RSF, which controls South Darfur, has since restricted civilian access to the facility and reinforced its protection with jamming systems, air defences, and checkpoints.
Military sources told Rooters the army ''intensively targeted Nyala on Friday and Saturday.''
Local sources and eyewitnesses confirmed aerial attacks in Nyala, reporting powerful explosions and smoke rising over the city. Witnesses said they heard three strong explosions on Saturday morning in central Nyala, accompanied by thick smoke.
They indicated that missiles targeted buildings east of Nyala's Shiniya area, with two striking the airport and Karrari neighbourhoods, as well as the al-Dhaman Hotel and the RSF's medical department.
Sources said Nyala International Airport was subjected to similar attacks early on Friday. The ''Kashlingo'' camp, an RSF training centre, also came under a fierce attack by high-explosive missiles.
The army has conducted several raids on the airport since its reopening, but these halted after the RSF shot down a warplane east of Nyala on Feb. 24, 2025.
The attacks on Friday and Saturday maimed several people who were taken to al-Yaqeen Ottoman Turkish Hospital and Nyala Teaching Hospital, sources said.

[SUDANTRIBUNE] Sudan ...a Moslem country located in the Horn of Africa. It is noted for its affinity for rule by ex- or current generals, its holy men, and for the oppression of the native Afro population by its Arab conquerors. South Sudan, populated mostly by the natives, split off from Sudan proper, which left North and South Darfur to be oppressed by the guys with turbans... 's new Prime Minister Kamil Idriss was sworn in on Saturday before the head of the Sovereign Council and army chief, Abdel Fattah al-Burhan.
Idriss is expected to begin consultations to form a new government. The army has pledged not to interfere in the prime minister's decisions, and al-Burhan has cancelled the oversight previously held by Sovereign Council members over ministries.
The Sovereign Council stated that ''Kamil Idriss took the oath as Prime Minister before Abdel Fattah al-Burhan.'' The swearing-in ceremony was attended by the Secretary-General of the Sovereign Council and the head of the judiciary in Red Sea state, representing the Chief Justice.
Idriss was appointed prime minister on May 19, becoming the first person to hold the position since his predecessor Abdalla Hamdok resigned in January 2022. Hamdok's resignation followed a breakdown in consensus among political forces due to conflicts stemming from the Oct. 25, 2021 coup.
In a related development, two new members of the Sovereign Council, Salma Abdel Jabbar al-Mubarak and Nawara Abu Mohammed Mohammed Tahir, also took their oaths before the council.

[GEO.TV] The Palestinian resistance group Hamas said on Sunday it was ready to "immediately" hold a fresh round of negotiations for a truce in Gaza after recent talks appeared to hit a dead end.
"The movement affirms its readiness to immediately begin a round of indirect negotiations to reach an agreement on the points of contention," Hamas said in a statement after mediators Qatar and Egypt said they would intensify their efforts for a truce in the war-battered Gaza Strip.
That’s nice. What are you going to offer to make it worth it to Israel to stop killing your people and bouncing your rubble?
[Spiked] The hysterical response to Israel’s aid initiative in Gaza has exposed the lunacy of Israelophobia.
Israel is behaving criminally again. It has once more turned its nose up at ’humanitarian principles’. It is trampling even harder than usual all over international law. What inhuman act has the pariah state committed now? Brace yourselves: it is seeking to feed the people of Gaza.
This is the news that the Jewish State, in tandem with the US, has launched the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation. Its aim is to get foodstuffs and other essentials to the benighted people of the war-ravaged Gaza Strip. You would think the activist class would be pleased at this news. They’ve been renting their garments for months over an alleged tyranny of famine in Gaza, which they say is the worst case of ’urban starvation’ since ’the siege of Leningrad’. Alas, you would be wrong. They hate this initiative. Why? Because Israel is behind it, and in their twisted minds, so addled by Israelophobia, everything Israel does is evil....

...There's another point that the author may be missing - if Hamass doesn't control the food; then they don't control the population.
I would suspect that the 'collaborators' mentioned in another post are instead simply some poor bastards who tried to get a food box and are now being executed pour encourager les autres.
BLUF: In the small hours of the night, far from the aid distribution point, somebody apparently shot at Gazans going against strict Hamas orders in order to line up to pick up food. The IDF says it wasn’t them. Who, oh who, dear Reader, could it have been?
[IsraelTimes] Both IDF and Gaza Humanitarian Foundation deny there was gunfire in aid distribution site, though eyewitnesses cited by AP say pre-dawn incident occurred a kilometer away from there
At least 31 Paleostinians were killed and dozens were maimed early Sunday as they were on their way to a humanitarian aid distribution site in the southern 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... Strip, multiple witnesses and Hamas ..not a terrorist organization, even though it kidnaps people, holds hostages, and tries to negotiate by executing them,... authorities said.
The Israel Defense Forces issued a vague statement, saying that "at this time, we are unaware of injuries caused by IDF troops’ fire within the [humanitarian aid] distribution site" in Rafah, adding that "the matter is still under review."
When asked for clarification, the IDF did not explicitly deny that there had been gunfire, but said it was unaware of any injuries "within" the aid site. Witnesses said Israeli forces fired on crowds around a kilometer away from the aid site hours before the distribution took place.
The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, the US- and Israel-backed body in charge of the aid distribution, insisted that the "aid was again distributed today without incident."
GHF published videos ostensibly showing that no Paleostinian civilians were shot at the site. "Reports of injuries and fatalities are completely false and fabricated," the organization said, attaching around 15 minutes of footage from the distribution site after dawn.
The Hamas-run health ministry in Gaza, whose tolls cannot be verified, said 31 people were killed and 170 others were maimed in the incident in Rafah on Sunday. Another person was killed and over a dozen were maimed at an aid distribution site in the Netzarim corridor area, Paleostinian media reported.
The News Agency that Dare Not be Named cited eyewitnesses as saying that the incident in Rafah occurred before dawn, as thousands marched toward the aid site. Israeli troops had ordered them to disperse and come back later, and as the crowds arrived at a roundabout around a kilometer away at 3 a.m., the IDF opened fire, the witnesses said.
An AP news hound arrived at a field hospital at around 6 a.m. and saw dozens of maimed, including women and kiddies. The news hound also saw crowds of people returning from the distribution point. Some were carrying boxes of aid, but most appeared to be coming back empty-handed.
Amid coverage in international media of the incident, former prime minister Naftali Bennett slammed the government for the fact that it did not provide any information, aside from the IDF’s vague statement. He said international media were reporting a "huge lie."
“Israel has no public diplomacy. The matter is not being managed," Bennett said.
GHF has denied previous accounts of chaos and gunfire around its sites, which are in Israeli military zones. The IDF has acknowledged firing warning shots on previous occasions.
GHF said Sunday that it had distributed 4.7 million meals at three distribution sites in southern and central Gaza over the past six days. But its classification of meals is based on boxes of dry food products that still require cooking equipment or community kitchens, which are very limited throughout the Strip after nearly 20 months of devastating conflict.
Under pressure from allies, Israel last month begun allowing some humanitarian aid into Gaza after blocking all food, medicine, fuel and other goods from entering since March 2, a move Jerusalem said was aimed at pressuring Hamas into releasing hostages.
The UN and other aid groups have refused to participate in the GHF system, saying it violates humanitarian principles. They say it puts aid under Israel’s control, to use to carry out its announced plans to move Gaza’s entire population to the south. They also say it cannot meet the massive needs of the population and endangers those seeking food.
Israel demanded the new system, saying it is needed to prevent Hamas from siphoning off supplies, as it accuses the terror group of regularly doing. UN agencies say their mechanisms already prevent significant diversion. Still, there is footage of aid being stolen by button men in Gaza, and one former hostage has testified that Hamas would eat from the stolen aid.
Just to underline that Doctors Without Borders are eager tools of Hamas:
MSF says patients it treated after chaos near Gaza aid site said they ‘were shot from all sides’ by IDF
Medical charity Doctors Without Borders said Sunday that people it treated at a Gaza aid site run by a new US-backed organization reported being “shot from all sides” by Israeli forces. The NGO, known by its French name MSF, blamed the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) system for chaos at the scene in the southern Gaza town of Rafah.
Gaza’s Hamas-run civil defense agency said Israeli fire killed 31 Palestinians at the site. Witnesses also told AFP the Israeli military had opened fire.
“Patients told MSF they were shot from all sides by drones, helicopters, boats, tanks and Israeli soldiers on the ground,” MSF said in a statement.
Goodness — such active imaginations.
MSF emergency coordinator Claire Manera in the statement called the GHF’s system of aid delivery “dehumanizing, dangerous and severely ineffective.”
“It has resulted in deaths and injuries of civilians that could have been prevented. Humanitarian aid must be provided only by humanitarian organizations who have the competence and determination to do it safely and effectively.”
MSF communications officer Nour Alsaqa in the statement reported hospital corridors filled with patients, mostly men, with “visible gunshot wounds in their limbs.”
MSF quoted one injured man, Mansour Sami Abdi, as describing people fighting over just five pallets of aid.
“They told us to take food — then they fired from every direction,” he said. “This isn’t aid. It’s a lie.”
The Israeli military said an initial inquiry found its troops “did not fire at civilians while they were near or within the humanitarian aid distribution site”.
A GHF spokesperson said: “These fake reports have been actively fomented by Hamas,” the Islamic militant group that Israel has vowed to destroy in Gaza.

Nine people have been feared dead following a bomb explosion at a local bus stop in Mairari village, Guzamala Local Government Area of Borno State.
It was gathered that the deadly blast was caused by an improvised bomb (IED) planted at a bus stop.
The explosion occurred around 11 a.m. on Saturday, and many people were reportedly injured.
The PUNCH reports that the Speaker of the Borno State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Abdulkarim Lawan, has confirmed that nine people were killed By IEDs planted by Lions of Islam at a local bus stop in Mairari village, Guzamala Local Government Area.
"It is unfortunate that nine of my resilient constituents were killed by planted IEDs while waiting to board vehicles at a local bus stop in Mairari village," Lawan said.
"May Allah grant their souls Aljanatul Firdaus. I also pray for the swift recovery of those currently receiving treatment in hospitals in Monguno and Maiduguri."
The Speaker lamented the continued attacks on the region, noting that Mairari village had previously been resettled twice with full civil authority, making it unique in Guzamala Local Government Area, but had again been deserted due to renewed Boko Haram ... not to be confused with Procol Harum, Harum Scarum, possibly to be confused with Helter Skelter. The Nigerian version of al-Qaeda and the Taliban rolled together and flavored with a smigeon of distinctly Subsaharan ignorance and brutality... and ISWAP activities.
He explained that many displaced residents currently taking refuge in Monguno, Guzamala, and Maiduguri frequently return to Mairari to farm.
"Unfortunately, Lions of Islam monitoring their movements planted IEDs at the local bus stop, which went kaboom! while they were waiting to board commercial vehicles back to their destinations," he narrated.
Lawan extended his condolences to the families of the dear departed and those injured in the blast.
He also appealed to the military and other security agencies to intensify efforts to restore security in Guzamala—particularly in Gudumbali, the council headquarters, and Mairari village—areas which have long remained under the control of Boko Haram without any civil authority.

"Pride is known as hubris (from the Ancient Greek ὕβρις) or futility. Strictly within the historical context of Judeo-Christian theology, is considered the original and worst of the seven deadly sins — the most demonic — on almost every list, often associated with the fall of Lucifer, who is said to have rebelled out of pride. Pride, within this very context, is also thought to be the source of the other capital sins. Pride is viewed as the opposite of humility."

[NAHARNET] Lebanese official media said an Israeli strike killed one person in the south on Saturday despite a six-month-old ceasefire, as Israel said it targeted a Hezbollah bully boy.
The state-run National News Agency (NNA) said a man was killed when an Israeli drone targeted his car as he was heading to pray at a mosque in Deir al-Zahrani, about 20 kilometers (12 miles) from the Israeli border.
Israel has continued to bomb Leb ...home of the original Hezbollah, which periodically starts a war with the Zionist Entity, gets Beirut pounded to rubble, and then declares victory and has a parade.... despite the November 27 truce that sought to halt more than a year of hostilities with Hezbollah, including two months of open war.
The Israeli army said the strike killed a regional commander "of Hezbollah's rocket array."
It charged that during the conflict, the operative "advanced numerous projectile attacks... and was involved recently in efforts to reestablish Hezbollah's terrorist infrastructure" in south Lebanon.
Under the terms of the ceasefire, Hezbollah fighters were to pull back north of the Litani River, some 30 kilometers (20 miles) from the border, and dismantle military infrastructure to its south.
Israel was to withdraw all forces from Lebanon but it has kept troops in five areas it deems "strategic".
The Lebanese Army has deployed in the south and has been dismantling Hezbollah infrastructure.

[Regnum] Russian troops will receive new Il-76MD-90A aerial ISR platforms in 2025. This was announced on June 1 by Vladimir Artyakov, First Deputy General Director of Rostec.
"In fact, this is a new aircraft that meets all modern requirements. This year, the troops will receive new machines within the framework of the state defense order," Artyakov was quoted as saying on the department's Telegram channel.
According to him, the new aircraft is a significantly improved version of the Soviet Il-76. The aircraft has a new engine, an improved wing, and modern onboard radio-electronic equipment. In addition, the aircraft has an extended flight range and increased cargo carrying capacity.
He also noted that Russian aircraft manufacturers are working on creating a whole line of military transport aircraft – new super-heavy and light class aircraft.

[REGNUM] On the evening of May 31, in the Bryansk region, a road bridge collapsed onto passenger train No. 86 Klimov-Moscow passing underneath. There were 388 passengers on board. Seven people died. The tragedy occurred at 22:44 on the single-track Pilshino-Vygonichi section.
Several hours later, Governor Alexander Bogomaz said that the cause of the disaster was the explosion of the bridge. The version of the explosion was also later confirmed by experts from the Investigative Committee of Russia (SKR). The train did not have time to reach the Vygonichi station. Then the train was supposed to make a stop in the regional capital Bryansk.
By 11:00, the number of victims of the train crash had risen to 73, 44 of whom were hospitalized. Among the victims was a four-month-old child. As reported by the Regnum news agency, he was sent to Moscow by helicopter.
The driver of the truck, who was driving across the bridge at the time of the explosion, was also injured. According to eyewitnesses, the truck fell onto the locomotive.
Passengers of the Klimov-Moscow train were brought to the capital on a reserve train. They are being assisted by doctors and psychologists.
"WE THOUGHT SOMEONE PULLED THE EMERGENCY BRAKE"
The surviving passengers were met at the Kievsky railway station by correspondents from the Regnum news agency.
According to the son of one of the victims, information that people were being taken back to Moscow was only obtained from the Russian Railways information desk. Relatives were also unable to immediately contact their loved ones.
"Dad has bruises, he doesn't feel very well, so I came to meet him. It was impossible to get through on the phone for a long time. When I called, it was barely audible. He said: everything is fine, I'm on my way," the source told the publication.
Soon a train arrived, from which the young man's father got off. On the platform, he was examined by medical workers. According to the man, whose name is Fedor, the evacuation of the victims was organized, volunteers and employees of the Ministry of Emergency Situations did everything possible for the safety of people. When the crash occurred, he fell from the second bunk of the eighth carriage.
"People were helping each other, getting out. In the carriage that overturned, they were shouting: help, help. The doors in our carriage were blocked, we were getting out through another carriage," he shared his experience with journalists from the Regnum news agency.
The sudden stop of the train made passengers think that someone had pulled the emergency brake, another victim said.
"We got off the train with our things and headed towards the highway. We helped the victims as best we could, bandaged their arms and legs. By that time, most of the people had been evacuated," the man said.
The Federal Passenger Company (FPC) promised to pay compensation to passengers, in addition, people will be awarded 20 thousand points under the RZD Bonus program.
According to Russian Railways, the locomotive driver died, and nine other train crew members were hospitalized.
The railway network of the border Bryansk region has been the target of sabotage attacks more than once. Thus, at about eight o'clock in the evening on May 2, 2023, a locomotive and 20 cars of a freight train derailed on the Snezhetskaya - Belye Berega section, southeast of Bryansk.
The train was traveling from Bryansk to Karachev. The cause of the disaster was the explosion of the railway tracks.
And the day before, saboteurs blew up the tracks at the 136th kilometer of the Bryansk-Unecha section. As a result, a locomotive and seven cars carrying fuel and building materials crashed.
CRASH IN KURSK REGION
A similar scenario occurred last night in the Kursk region on the 48th kilometer of the Trosna-Kalinovka highway in the Zheleznogorsk district while a freight locomotive was moving. There, a railway bridge collapsed onto the highway while a freight train was passing over it.
"According to preliminary information, one of the locomotive drivers has injured his legs - the entire team was taken to the hospital. They are under the supervision of doctors," said acting head of the region Alexander Khinshtein.
The burning locomotive was quickly extinguished by firefighters.
The conclusion of the investigators of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation in both cases is unambiguous - a terrorist act. The investigation of criminal cases on explosions on the railway in the Bryansk and Kursk regions has begun, reported the official representative of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation Svetlana Petrenko.
Russian President Vladimir Putin was briefed throughout the night on the progress of the rescue operation and the initial findings of law enforcement investigators.
“Russian President Vladimir Putin received reports from the FSB and the Ministry of Emergency Situations throughout the night about what happened in the Kursk and Bryansk regions with the trains,” said the president’s press secretary Dmitry Peskov.
By midday it became known that another section of the Bryansk region railway network had been blown up. The railway track on the Unecha-Zhecha section was blown up when a track-measuring train was passing through. Fortunately, no one was hurt, but this section of the track is closed to train traffic.
Did the right thing, the right way.
He should be commended for saving the Taxpayers likely $M in the future housing this POS with predictable future of taxpayer housing and care.
[Wash Post Max Boot] The Ukrainians rewrote the rules of warfare again on Sunday. The Russian high command must have been as shocked as the Americans were in 1941 when the Ukrainians carried out a surprise attack against five Russian air bases located far from the front — two of them thousands of miles away in the Russian Far North and Siberia. The Ukrainian intelligence service, known as the SBU, managed to sneak large numbers of drones deep inside Russia in wooden cabins transported by truck, then launch them by remote control.

One'd assume that, after 3 years of war, Americans (no matter how that specific individual hates/fears Russia) would learn to take Ukrainian success claims with a grain of salt.

I stopped reading at the byline. Max Boot, ah ... nope

The attack seems real enough with new video footage of Russian bombers in flames. Ukraine covertly infiltrated short ranged drones in civilian trucks next to Russian bases.
This is a wake-up call for anti-drone base defense.
Especially since the CCP has been buying up farmland next to American bases.

I will admit I didn't read past the first paragraph. Some of you didn't read past the byline which I totally understand. I just don't see how the rules of war have changed. It seems pretty simple: Kill the other guy and destroy his stuff before he does it to you. The introduction of new weapons has never changed that.

You might recall a week ago, Chancellor Merz declared that Germany gave Ukraine “permission” to carry out long-range strikes into Russia. Smooth move, Friedrich. He is, apparently, unaware that in so-doing he automatically gave Russia permission to strike deep into Germany as well, which Russia has not yet done.
and also
All of this puts Mr. Trump in a bind. His efforts to negotiate peace are on-the-rocks for now, as is his (America’s) ability to control the maniac globalist warmongers of NATO. Many in the US, and Mr. Trump himself, make noises about backing off the big mess altogether and dissociating from a NATO alliance that has lost its purpose and meaning, becoming, in fact, a menace to our interests.

Ever since the USSR went kaput I thought the only reason for the US to stay involved with NATO is to keep the Germans from starting another war. Somebody needs to sit on those globalist war mongers before they do something we'll all regret.

CTH this morning:
"Zelensky’s Gauntlet – Did Ukraine Just Draw the USA and NATO Closer to War with Russia by Targeting Russian Strategic Long-Range Bombers Covered by SALT and START Treaties?
June 2, 2025 | Sundance | 724 Comments
First the cliff notes version: There’s an important detail to remember. People are laughing at the long-range Russian bombers being left out in the open, vulnerable to attack. However, the bomber visibility is required as part of several nuclear agreements between the USA and Russia (SALT and START). Our U.S. long range nuclear capable bombers, covered under the same agreements, are also visible. Ukraine President Zelenskyy is playing with fire by targeting them, which also explains why Zelenskyy never told President Trump in advance.
The U.S and NATO have provided the means. However, #1) did Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy just exploit a vulnerability by targeting Russian long-range nuclear capable bombers? and #2) was the CIA and NATO intelligence community a willfully blind participant knowing they would benefit?
Both the Strategic Arms Limitation Treaty (SALT) and the Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty (START), call for U.S. and Russian long range nuclear capable bombers to remain “visible and observable by national technical means of verification.” That open visibility creates a mutual vulnerability as well as a method of surveillance and verification for both the USA and Russian Federation."...
:Volodymyr Zelenskyy, and by extension his NATO enablers, just exploited that SALT/START vulnerability and used drones to attack Russian bombers covered by USA-Russia treaties. There are reports (and videos) now surfacing from inside Russia showing the Russian Federation moving strategic long-range mobile missile launchers into position for a counterattack against Ukraine.
This situation is obviously very fluid and let us all hope that President Trump and President Putin are in communication about this escalation as created by Zelenskyy and his enablers, even if -and probably especially if- our own intelligence agencies are part of the enabling.
Think about the ramifications of NATO enabled Ukraine targeting major Russian military assets which are vulnerable only because they are part of a previously agreed U.S-Russia negotiation to remain vulnerable. In essence, an argument can be made by Russia that NATO -and by extension us- have targeted nuclear capable missile systems, and those systems were protected by the SALT/START treaties. How would we respond of an adversary launched a strike against our strategic long-range nuclear capable bombers in the USA?"
[PUBLISH.TWITTER] Follow up to this and this from yesterday.
30% or more of the Russian Air Force’s fleet of long-range nuclear-capable strategic bombers were reportedly damaged and/or destroyed during today’s operation by the Ukrainian Security Service (SBU), in what Russian milbloggers are calling “Russia’s Pearl Harbor” pic.twitter.com/YaVUA2oPwS
So, it appears Zelenskyy gave the go ahead to attack parked Russian nuclear capable bombers without informing @realDonaldTrump (if true that our President was not consulted nor informed, this isn’t simply a breach of protocol. It’s a geopolitical insult and a warning… pic.twitter.com/L976NhwFy6

The last time I looked there was a dearth of hangers at Diego - and Barksdale etc. if they actually took 18 months to plan this exercise there is no way the US/UK intel sides weren’t read in, consulted and gave it their blessing. And the Russians (and the Chinese- at a minimum) know that. I’d anticipate asymmetric repercussions

FWIW there were 8 messages today on UVB-76 the Russian numbers radio station (example: 15:44 Moscow Time "NZhTI 09849 UTKOROY 5470 9627". In a nutshell "that's not comforting"
[GEO.TV] The corpse count from an Israeli attack near an aid distribution point run by the 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... Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) has climbed to 30 in Rafah, Paleostinian news agency WAFA said on Sunday.
There was no immediate comment from Israel on the reported attack, which WAFA said injured more than 115 people.
The GHF, also backed by Israel, recently started operating in Gaza.
While some Paleostinians expressed concern over its neutrality and biometric and other checks Israel said it would employ, Israeli officials said it allowed screening of recipients to exclude anyone found to be connected with Hamas ..not a terrorist organization, even though it kidnaps people, holds hostages, and tries to negotiate by executing them,... On May 28, Hamas accused Israel of killing at least three Paleostinians and wounding 46 near one of the GHF's distribution sites, an accusation the aid group denied.
The Israeli military also said its troops fired warning shots in the area outside the compound to re-establish control, as thousands of Paleostinians rushed to an aid distribution site.

[ConservativeTreehouse] Details Surface of FBI Record System Containing “Prohibited Access” Files, Exclusively Controlled by 7th Floor FBI Officials
As previously noted, Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley released some of the FBI investigative files related to a congressional referral of Nellie Ohr for false testimony to congress. Within the Grassley release the declassified FBI investigative notes show that Trump-Russia files were compartmentalized, allowing control over access to them by the FBI Director and FBI Deputy Director.
The 7th floor level classification within the FBI’s Sentinel record-keeping system was previously unknown, and now people are starting to ask questions about what other information may be filed yet invisible due to the classification designation of “Prohibited Access.”
The Sentinel record-keeping system allows FBI officials and investigators to review and research the status of investigations both past and current. The Sentinel system is also the information system that is searched for responsive documents to legal cases and FOIA inquires. The Sentinel system contains all the information used by the FBI.
Within the Sentinel system there are “Restricted Access” files that are used to control who can view the file information. The FBI official can see the file but cannot access the information within it without a higher clearance level. However, now people are discovering there is a “Prohibited Access” designation that makes the file invisible to searches or queries and is controlled by the FBI Director and FBI Deputy Director.
Margot Cleveland is asking some good questions about how the use of the “Prohibited Access” designation may circumvent the FBI’s legal requirements (brady material) and FOIA searches. [SEE HERE] However, I would also note this approach hides information not only from congress and from the public, but also from the Executive branch itself. The DNI wouldn’t even know what information exists.
Additionally, we can expand the overall issue to highlight this same approach at work in various other governmental agencies. This is one of the reasons I refer to the agencies within government more aptly as information “silos.”
The same “secrecy filtering” system outlined in the FBI Sentinel system, “restricted access” (visible but needing a higher clearance) vs “prohibited access” (totally invisible) exists in other govt systems.
The NSA, DHS and CIA contain the same issue, information hidden and kept secret. This is the core reason I have historically called them “silos.”
The same ‘what the heck’ realization encountered with the FBI file keeping, as noted by the Grassley revelations, extends far beyond the FBI.
This is also why I have said the Intelligence Community has created a “caste system” within the surveillance and information space.
Now do you see why elements of the IC, and by extension their political enablers, were going bananas about DOGE access?
Simmer on it for a moment, because it gets worse.
Right now, like right now while you are reading this, the same framework is being applied to the DHS surveillance network, where “restricted access” and “prohibited access” (invisible) are being applied to PEOPLE.
Our government, via Palantir, is currently building the domestic identity surveillance system, where every identity will be stored. However, within the storage, and by extension the parameters of the surveillance search results, there will be people who are defined by placing their identity in the “prohibited access” category.
Great job realizing the secrecy ramifications of the issue within the FBI and their exploitation therein. Now extend that realization to the ramifications for us of other silos doing the same.
I was told in August 2020 that the FBI investigative file into James Wolfe leaking the Carter Page FISA application, is in the “prohibited access” tier of the FBI because it outlines Senate Select Committee on Intelligence Vice-Chairman Mark Warner participating and directing the leak. That was how/why SSCI Security Director James Wolfe was never charged with leaking a TSCI classified file.
Is the President of the United States really in charge of the executive branch, when the agencies can easily hide information from him?
[IsraelTimes] Separate attacks eliminate members of the Iran-backed Lebanese terror group’s anti-tank missile and rocket units, according to military
Israeli dronezaps killed two Hezbollah operatives in southern Leb ...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. Only one of those statements is an exaggeration.... on Sunday, the Israel Defense Forces said, marking the latest in a string of deadly exchanges that continue to strain a fragile ceasefire between Israel and the Iran-backed terrorist group.
The IDF said the first strike, carried out in the village of Arnoun in Lebanon’s Nabatieh region, targeted a member of Hezbollah’s anti-tank unit. Lebanon’s health ministry confirmed one fatality in the attack, which it described as an "Israeli enemy strike" on a cycle of violence. Arnoun lies just five kilometers (three miles) from the Israeli border.
It said another person was killed in an Israeli raid that "targeted a vehicle on the Debl road" in the Bint Jbeil district. The IDF later confirmed the attack, saying a dronezap in Ayta ash-Shab killed a member of Hezbollah’s rocket unit.
Another strike on a car in nearby Beit Lif maimed one person, the Lebanese health ministry said.
The IDF did not immediately comment on the Beit Lif attack.
Since the initiation of a ceasefire agreement in November 2024, which expired in mid-February, Israel has continued to launch targeted strikes on Hezbollah operatives and infrastructure, claiming violations of the truce by the terrorist organization. According to the IDF, over 180 Hezbollah operatives have been killed in Israeli strikes since the deal was reached.
The November truce followed over a year of cross-border violence that began when Hezbollah started attacking Israel a day after its Paleostinian ally Hamas ..the braying voice of Islamic Resistance®,... ’s October 7, 2023, terror onslaught. The fighting between Israel and Hezbollah included two months of open warfare, and the ceasefire was based on the framework of United Nations ...a lucrative dumping ground for the relatives of dictators and party hacks... Security Council Resolution 1701, which ended the 2006 Second Lebanon War.
The resolution required Hezbollah to withdraw its fighters north of the Litani River — about 30 kilometers (19 miles) from the border — and dismantle all military infrastructure in southern Lebanon. Israel, in turn, was to withdraw its troops, though it has maintained five positions along the frontier it considers "strategic."
בדרום לבנון עוד שני הרוגים היום בשורות חיזבאללה בשתי תקיפות שונות לעבר כלי רכב ואופנוע בכפרים בית ליף וארנון בהתאמה. מתחילת הפסקת האש בסוף חודש נובמבר 190 מחוסלים בלבנון הרוב המוחלט מחיזבאללה pic.twitter.com/64HyIjL1cI

Translated from Hebrew by Google
In southern Lebanon, two more Hezbollah members were killed today in two separate attacks on a vehicle and a motorcycle in the villages of Beit Lif and Arnon, respectively. Since the ceasefire began at the end of November, 190 have been killed in Lebanon, the vast majority from Hezbollah.
The escalating violence has drawn regional criticism. During a visit to Baghdad on Sunday, Lebanese President Joseph Aoun condemned the Israeli raids as violations of Lebanese illusory sovereignty. In a joint presser with Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudan ...a Moslem country located in the Horn of Africa. It is noted for its affinity for rule by ex- or current generals, its holy men, and for the oppression of the native Afro population by its Arab conquerors. South Sudan, populated mostly by the natives, split off from Sudan proper, which left North and South Darfur to be oppressed by the guys with turbans... i, both leaders denounced the Israeli actions.
"These repeated Israeli attacks against Lebanon’s illusory sovereignty are in violation of international law," Sudani said. He called for full implementation of the 2006 UN resolution and reiterated Iraq’s support for Lebanon’s territorial integrity.
President Aoun’s trip to Iraq, his first since taking office in January, also focused on strengthening bilateral ties in energy, telecommunications, and trade. Lebanon, grappling with a severe economic crisis, has relied heavily on Iraqi fuel shipments to keep its power grid functioning. The two nations have also discussed increased wheat deliveries, with Lebanon expecting 320,000 tons from Iraq in the coming months.
In his remarks, Aoun thanked Iraq for "all the support and donations," particularly during last year’s war, when Iraq welcomed thousands of displaced Lebanese civilians, primarily Shiite Moslems.
Hezbollah, which maintains strong political and military ties with Iran ...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan. The abbreviation IRGC is the same idea as Stürmabteilung (or SA). The term Supreme Guide is a the modern version form of either Duce or Führer or maybe both. They hate JewsZionists Jews. Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol... and enjoys support from pro-Iran factions in Iraq, has not publicly commented on Sunday’s strike.
The developments come amid heightened uncertainty over the long-term viability of the ceasefire, with tensions simmering along the border and diplomatic efforts to de-escalate appearing increasingly strained.

[Rudaw] At least three internal security forces (Asayish) members of northeast Syria (Rojava) were killed in a suspected 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.

(ISIS) landmine while patrolling on the Raqqa-Hasaka road, the Asayish said on Sunday, amid an escalation of ISIS attacks.
"A landmine detonated on the patrol vehicle, killing three of our members while they were performing their duty to protect the road and secure the movement of civilians. Another member was maimed and is currently receiving medical care," the Asayish said in a statement.
The attack, which took place at 9 am on the Raqqa-Hasaka road, took place as the Kurdish-led force was patrolling the area to curb the increase in ISIS attacks.
"This terrorist act comes amid the escalating activity of ISIS in various areas of north and east Syria, particularly around al-Hol and some rural areas of Raqqa and Hasaka, where recent attacks and infiltrations have targeted the stability and security of civilians," the Asayish warned.
It said that combing operations are underway to track down the perpetrators of the attack and explosive experts are searching the area for a suspected second landmine.
On Friday, an operation led by the Women’s Protection Units (YPJ) in the eastern Deir ez-Zor province led to the arrest of ten ISIS members.
The Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), the de facto army of Rojava, has carried out numerous operations this year to counter what they say is a resurgence in ISIS activity targeting both their forces and civilians.
On Monday, the SDF said it thwarted a "treacherous and indiscriminate" attack by ISIS murderous Moslems in Deir ez-Zor, a week after another ISIS attack killed one SDF member and injured another.
ISIS and its so-called "caliphate" was territorially defeated in 2019, but the group has recently sought to regain ground, taking advantage of instability in Syria following the fall of Bashir Pencilneck al-Assad Horror of Homs... ’s regime.
The SDF, backed by the United States, has fought to prevent the murderous Moslems from reestablishing a foothold in the shifting security landscape.
