GabrielYulaw: Another crazy video from HAMAS. This guys got balls, getting close to a Markeva MBT and destroying it. I think the Tank was abandoned, we are beginning to see what Russia's also did, leaving their knocked-out tanks. This will be a very long war for Israel this time around. https://twitter.com/MyLordBebo/status/1720467653167325268?t=cNVUw1AY3nom5MwINz_VTw&s=19 1 Like |

bidex111: I don't think it was abandoned. And no, it wasn't knocked out because there was no obvious damage. They put an RPG on the tank to disable its APS. And then fired a tandem warhead Yasin to damage the tank. It wasn't destroyed. |

GabrielYulaw: The RPG warhead was placed beside the Amno storage, I doubt if that tank would survive that. |

bidex111: Ammo storage? Bros, ammo is not stored on the outside of a tank. Folks on Twitter are saying that the first RPG was to disable the APS and the second was to enforce a mobility kill on the tank. I agree with their analysis. |

GabrielYulaw: I didn't say the ammo is stored outside ? Part of the Markeva MBT ammo is stored at the rear and it was indicated in the video, the explosion only just needs the ammo stored at the rear to cook-up and boom. the 3rd picture is not a recent one; its one of the two Mrkeva MBT lost during the 2nd Lebanon war, similar thing happened. there was a hit at the rear that set up the ammo. 5 Likes

The Nigerian Airforce have confirmed the obliteration of terrorists at Degbawa in Mandara Mountain, and released photos of the strikes. Precision air strikes by the Air Component of Operation Hadin Kai (OPHK) on 2 November 2023, have led to the elimination of several terrorists at their meeting point near Degbawa, a reclusive location within the Mandara Mountains in Gwoza Local Government Area of Borno State. The air strikes were called for after intelligence revealed the sighting of some key terrorists’ figures and their foot soldiers arriving the location in the last 2 days for a probable meeting. Their gathering in large number yesterday afternoon near Degbawa raised concerns, thus necessitating the need for an air interdiction on the location with devastating outcome for the terrorists. An assessment of the location after the strike revealed a large number of terrorists were indeed eliminated. According to several sources, this particular location was carefully chosen by the terrorists to evade being easily detected especially by NAF aircraft. The outcome of the strike however proved the terrorists wrong as their nefarious plans to meet was detected, thus leading to the success of the air strike. The sources also noted that this strike was a major set back for the terrorists who have, of late, been at the receiving end of the air and land components of OPHK. Another source also noted that these terrorists were responsible for the recent attack on some locals in Geidam and had planned to meet to review the attack as well as plan the next line of attack on innocent civilians and other vulnerable targets. When contacted, NAF spokesperson and Director of Public Relations and Information, Air Commodore Edward Gabkwet, confirmed the attack at Degbawa and reassured Nigerians that the NAF will continue to go after these terrorists until they lay down their arms or are eliminated. 2 Likes

bidexiii: Unprecedented, that is since the yom Kippur war? Most likely. Heavy? Not at all. Definitely there will be ambushes and people will die and propaganda will be generated from it. However, this is not Russo-Ukraine where you have two conventional militaries with heavy guns, sophisticated intelligence, economy and access to billions of dollars in funding. Hamas simply lacks the capacity to cause any IDF losses of statistical significance to warrant any change of tactics. Conventional warfare ultimately boils down to how big your guns compare to the enemy. Already Gaza has been cut into two and the city is besieged. I think you're right about Israel not backing down though. They believe it's their last opportunity to end Hamas. I feel for Palestinians. Although majority of them support Hamas, anyone that does not participate in conflict is innocent. 2 Likes |

The operation which was based on actionable intelligence, marks a significant step in the ongoing efforts of OPSH to combat illicit arms proliferation and ensure the safety and security of the state and environs. The discovery of the weapon factory was also, the result of a meticulously executed intelligence-led operation conducted by the troops leading to the substantial recovery of cache of automatic weapons and related equipment that were being produced and distributed to other states thereby fuelling crisis on the Plateau and in Southern Kaduna. The recovered items include 6 AK-47 rifles, 4 sub-machine guns, 11 AK rifle bodies, a pistol and 7 x AK 47 bridge blocks. Others include 4 x AK 47 rifle magazines, 210 recoil springs for AK 47 rifles, 7 rifle butts, 8 rifle muzzles, 9 piston assemblies as well as 5 cartridge housings. Also recovered were one drilling machine set, and a hand filling machine. In addition to the seizure of the weapons and weapon fabricating equipment, two individuals directly involved in the weapon proliferation and marketing process, Micheal Dung 33 years and Yusuf Pam 43 years were both apprehended. The leadership of OPSH working in close coordination with law enforcement agencies, will continue to ensure those responsible for perpetuating criminal activities and their collaborators face the full wrath of the law. These arrests sends a clear message that illegal arms production and trafficking will not be tolerated and anybody involved will be held accountable for their actions. The successful operation further demonstrates the unwavering commitment of OPSH to rid the Joint Operations Area of illegal arms and dismantle criminal networks involved in illegal weapon manufacturing and distribution in line with the mandate given to troops during the launch of Operations HAKORIN DAMISA IV by the Chief of Army Staff, Lt Gen TA Lagbaja.The recovery of such a significant number of firearms and related equipment will undoubtedly disrupt the activities of criminal elements and contribute to the overall security and stability of Plateau State and indeed the entire nation which remains the primary focus of the Chief of Defence Staff, Lt Gen CG Musa. The GOC and Commander OPSH, Major General AE Abubakar, while commending the troops' resilience, expresses his gratitude to the community for their continued support and cooperation in providing valuable information that has aided the fight against criminal activities. The collaboration between the military and the public is crucial in ensuring the success of operations aimed at maintaining peace and security in Plateau State and by extension Nigeria. OPSH remains resolute in its commitment to protect the lives and property of all law-abiding citizens. Efforts will continue to be intensified to identify and neutralize illegal weapons manufacturing facilities and dismantle criminal networks involved in arms proliferation. We urges the public to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activities or individuals to the appropriate authorities. Together, we can create a safer and more secure Nigeria for all. 1 Like

I understand what you tried to pull up there because I have seen a lot of people argue based on that line and when the argument get intense they will use the Bible as a backup to that claim. You never for once mentioned the origin of the people there rather under whose rule they were under. Nobody is denying Israel right to live but they shouldn't do that at the expense of others.

Blakjewelry: It is you that can't read, bros. Like the fella said, there was never a Palestinian state, so there shouldn't be one now. But there used to be a Jewish kingdom in that region, like 2,000 years ago. So that means the Jews have a better right to the land. And if they have to kee millions of Palestinians and push the rest into the Sinai, then it is the damned fault of them Arabs for not recognizing the special nature of the "Children of Light" and their manifest destiny not to be bound by any laws of war or rules of conduct known to mankind, and not to be subject to any form of criticism, or have ill motives ascribed to their actions, even if those same actions are clear war crimes that if committed by any other country would send the US and UN into a frenzy of righteous indignation. And based on his reasoning, I really can't think of any current country that should exist. In fact, let's dissolve all countries and start again from 2000 years ago. Let Jesus come again sef and we can start from there 2 Likes 1 Share |

23jerryking:The point is, the 2 states system should be implemented to stop further bloodshed. DNA wise all of them in the middle east are all relatives, archeological evidence also show they are closely related to each other, they share similar culture, worship the same gods before the Israelites vier towards a monolistic deity system. I only refer you way back because people tend to trace back were Israelites claim God gave them possession of the land ignoring the previous occupants. That been said, the world today is different. Back in the days before modern city states and government, anybody can wake an if they can muster enough force take your land and there is nothing you can do. Today government and countries are form to protect the habitant of particular area, so what stopping them from creating a palestanian state. My anger here is, they all know the solution to the problem extending the crisis. If you look closely all those not supporting Isreal didn't say Israel should quit but rather give these guys freedom, in fact the circle of violence will never stop, because for every individual you kill you just made hundreds of enemy plus even a generational and that is on both side. 1 Like |
