A ballistic missile launched today by Russia towards the port of Odessa hit exactly 300 meters from President Volodymyr Zelensky and Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis who were visiting the place.

"We heard sirens, then we got into the vehicles and heard a huge explosion," Mitsotakis said.

There were no casualties among the crews of the two leaders, but five people outside their crews were killed.

The Russians claim: we hit the hangar where there were unmanned vessels of the Ukrainian army

Foreign Affairs / World's Billionaires Are Building Bunkers And Assembling Fortresses by Holiness2100: 7:02pm On Mar 06
WORLD'S BILLIONAIRES ARE BUILDING BUNKERS AND ASSEMBLING FORTRESSES OUTSIDE THEIR MANSIONS:

In the realm of the ultra-wealthy, where lavish supercars, exotic pets and luxury estates are commonplace, there’s a new fascination taking hold: bunkers. Yes, you read that right—bunkers.

It seems that the top 1 per cent are increasingly investing in these subterranean shelters, turning them into the latest must-have accessory in the billionaire’s portfolio.

One notable example is none other than Mark Zuckerberg, the CEO of Meta, who is currently in the process of constructing a bunker in Hawaii worth a staggering $270 million. It’s almost as if these bunkers have become a status symbol among the super-rich elite.

But why exactly are billionaires so fixated on bunkers? Are they preparing for war, another pandemic, or even an apocalypse? The answer remains elusive, prompting speculation about whether they possess insider knowledge that the rest of us lack.


Equipped with blast-resistant doors and stocked with provisions for extended survival, these bunkers are essentially self-sustaining fortresses. Take, for instance, Zuckerberg’s 5,000-square-foot shelter nestled underground in Hawaii—an epitome of luxury survivalism with its eye-watering price tag.

Yet, Zuckerberg isn’t alone in his quest for bunker supremacy. Former PayPal CEO Peter Thiel famously attempted to build his bunker in New Zealand, while Bill Gates reportedly has underground security areas in each of his homes. And while these high-end bunkers come with exorbitant price tags, with some basic models starting at $500,000, they’re considered just another extravagant purchase for the billionaire class.

As for the location, bunkers are cropping up all over the globe, with New Zealand emerging as a popular choice thanks to its secluded nature. [/b]This surge in demand has led to a boom in companies specialising in survival shelters, offering everything from basic underground bunkers to elaborate island fortresses complete with flamethrower-equipped moats.

[b]But what exactly are the super-rich afraid of?

Despite surviving numerous global crises in recent years, including pandemics and wars, it seems that billionaires are erring on the side of caution. Some bunkers even boast medical facilities staffed with registered nurses and stocked with a plethora of supplies, effectively transforming them into modern-day arks capable of weathering any catastrophe.

However, beneath the opulence of these underground bunkers lies a sobering truth: DEATH remains the great equaliser.
Despite their vast wealth and elaborate fortifications, billionaires are ultimately powerless against mortality.

Yet, this hasn’t deterred them from trying to buy their way out of the inevitable—a futile attempt to defy the natural order of things.

Foreign Affairs / Hamas Leader: I Dont Know The Number Of Hamas Killed ( Video, Pics) by Holiness2100: 9:13am On Feb 29
EXPOSING THE LIES: I DONT KNOW THE NUMBER OF HAMAS KILLED.

Hamas senior leader Ghazi Hamad, while visiting Nigeria, meticulously lists every detail of civilian casualties in Gaza.

When asked about Hamas fighters casualty numbers, his response:

I don’t know what the number of Hamas fighters were killed… the situation is an area of war… no one can count, no one can know, no one can make an investigation…”

Foreign Affairs / Gaza War: IDF Uncovers Double Life Of Al-jazeera's Journalist, Muhammad Wishah by Holiness2100: 8:20pm On Feb 16
JOURNALIST BY DAY, HAMAS TERRORIST COMMANDER BY NIGHT:
ISRAELI ARMY UNCOVERS DOUBLE LIFE of Al-Jazeera's Muhammad Wishah.


A journalist on the Qatari Al Jazeera news network by day, a commander in an anti-tank unit of Hamas — a genocidally antisemitic jihadist group by night.

To what extent the two hats worn by Samir Muhammad Wishah are at odds with one another is a matter of interpretation, yet the contents of his laptop, found by the IDF in Gaza, offer ample documentation of this double career.  


By late 2022, Wishah, a 37-year-old resident of Bureij, was promoted to the research and development department in the Hamas Air Force, according to the IDF's Arabic-language Spokesperson Avichay Adree, who posted the damning photos to X. Adree didn't specify whether Wishah was arrested. 

The exposé comes one day after the IDF revealed that Hamas built a vast network of tunnels directly underneath the headquarters of the UN's agency for Palestinian refugees in Gaza City. 

Israel launched the war against Hamas after the October 7 attacks, which saw thousands of terrorists breach the border separating the Palestinian enclave from the Jewish state and perpetrate the worst antisemitic atrocity since the Holocaust.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to the Counter Terrorism Unit Fighters who Rescued the Two Hostages:

"This was one of the most successful rescue operations in the history of the State of Israel."
 
The Prime Minister gave an update on how he approved the complex operation several days ago and how he closely monitored the rescue operation from the ISA special operations control center.


Prime Minister Netanyahu and Minister Ben-Gvir heard from the commanders and fighters about the dramatic moments of the rescue and the complexity of the operation, and the cooperation and integration among the various forces.

Prime Minister Netanyahu [translated from Hebrew]:

"This is a day of joy !
I would like to tell you that the freeing of Louis and Fernando was one of the most successful rescue operations in the history of the State of Israel.


Several days ago, the operation was brought to me for approval and I approved it. Afterward, several hours later, I thought about three things: One, I thought about the sacred nature of the mission. Two, I thought about the risks in relation to the chances, and there were risks. Three, I thought about you, the fighters. I thought about what would happen at the decisive moment, because from experience, I know that at the breakthrough moment, the gap between victory and tragedy is a millimeter.

At 01:40 this morning, I saw you placing the charge and seconds later I heard 'We have the hostages.' You eliminated the abductors, the terrorists, and made your way back without injury – a successful operation, a perfect operation.

I would like to tell you: I am so proud of you. I am proud of you, the ISA and the IDF. You worked like a well-oiled machine. You are simply the best fighters there are. I came here to tell you this and to salute you on behalf of all citizens of Israel. You are the best in the world. Well done!"

I believe that an all-out war against Hezbollah would be very difficult, but the Israeli decision to wait has operational implications that are worth dwelling on:

1. Since October 7, the production lines for TAMIR (Iron Dome), Stunr (David's Slingshot) missiles, and possibly also the Arrow's, have been working 24/7, and Israel has accumulated thousands of interceptors instead of those launched in the south. Since the interception policy is to launch only when expected If a hit occurs in a built-up area, each additional interceptor means one less hit in populated areas, and cumulatively thousands less hits.

2. The elimination of Hamas's rocket capability allows the air defense systems formation to concentrate almost all of its capabilities against the northern front. This fact provides a better interception capability, which will also be reflected in the reduction of the number of effective hits by Hezbollah.

3. The Air Force and the IDF ground forces do attack in southern Lebanon with a relatively low intensity, but they have been doing so for a long time, and in the process hit several thousand Hezbollah targets. This activity offset to some extent the organization's rocket stockpiles, and will also allow a less difficult entry into the ground maneuver across the border.

4. The IDF gained fresh and enormous operational experience in the Gaza Strip, which no army in the world currently possesses. Assuming that the campaign will break out in the spring or summer, the troops will arrive relatively refreshed and equipped with tremendous combat experience, despite the differences between the fighting descriptions of Gaza and the north.

It is important to emphasize: Hezbollah should not be underestimated, the campaign against it will be very difficult and will exact a price and casualties in significantly greater numbers than the war against Hamas; It is likely that it will also accompany all those extreme scenarios that I mentioned in the previous post, such as damage to iconic government buildings in Israel, the possibility of prolonged power outages, and the like;


But, the time that has passed is mainly beneficial to the IDF and the security establishment, should make this campaign a little less deadly, and make Nasrallah think again if he wants to go down in history not as the defender of Lebanon, but as the destroyer of Lebanon.

"Free Palestine" was written on the rifle

Listen to this:
When the hostages were transferred to the rescue vehicles, one of the Shin Bet fighters noticed that Luis was barefoot, and carried him in his hands so that he would not injure his feet from the glass and stones that were on the floor.

Immediately after that, the warrior took off his operational shoes and put them on Lewis.

The shoes were left in Tel Hashomer hospital and the soldier continued the rescue mission without his shoes.

In order not to endanger the hostages, the special forces lowered them using reppelling ropes from the second floor to the bottom, without going through the first floor where an unnecessary risk could have been created.

New details about rescued hostages, Fernando Marman and Louis Har.

➡️ Their relatives say that they had cooked for the family that had held them captive.

➡️ They lived mostly on pita bread and white cheese and returned having lost much of their body weight.

➡️ They had not seen sunlight during the 129 days since their abduction.

➡️ They were asleep when the Israeli forces entered and, until they realized that they were in the hands of Israelis, were sure they were going to die. Their extraction came as a complete surprise.

➡️ The men had not seen news for the entire time they were held hostage, except for one time when they were able to watch a broadcast on Al Jazeera

The Palestinians got the memo and now are leaving Rafah towards the north as the Israeli ground maneuver is approaching

More about the hostage release:

The daring rescue took significant planning after Israeli intelligence identified a building in which the two hostages were held.

Yamam (an elite commando unit), Shin Bet fighters, and Flotilla 13 (IDF’s navy seals) were chosen to carry out the operation.


The forces trained on a model and prepared for various incidents and complications. Last night the forces were ready and given a "green light" to proceed.

The extraction team arrived quietly at the home in Rafah at around 1 am.

At 1:49 a.m., the forces breached the second-floor apartment with explosives, and within moments killed three terrorists guarding the hostages.

Within one minute of the rescue, the Israeli Air Force carried out massive airstrikes against Hamas terrorists in the area of the operation, to aid in the extraction.

The two hostages were taken by the forces in armored vehicles out of Rafah, then put in a military helicopter that brought them to hospital.


God bless every person involved in this mission.

The Netherlands

An appeals court ordered the Dutch government on Monday to halt the export of F-35 fighter jets parts to Israel citing a clear risk of violations of international law.

A trio of human rights organizations brought a civil suit against the Netherlands in December, arguing authorities needed to reevaluate the export license in light of Israeli military action in the Gaza Strip.

“It is undeniable that there is a clear risk that the exported F-35 parts are used in serious violations of international humanitarian law,” Judge Bas Boele said in reading out the ruling, eliciting cheers from several people in the courtroom.

Press Release

The Israeli Ministers of Foreign Affairs and Interior affairs decided: the entry into Israel of the special mission to the Palestinian territories on behalf of the UN Human Rights Council will be prohibited


Foreign Minister Israel Katz and Interior Minister Moshe Arbel decided today (Monday) to declare the antisemitic Italian national Francesca Albanese, the special envoy to the Palestinian territories on behalf of the UN Human Rights Council, as denied entry to the State of Israel following her outrageous statement that "the victims of the October 7 massacre did not were murdered because of their Jewishness, but in response to Israeli oppression."

Albanese has a note in the entry system of the Population and Immigration Authority that does not allow her to be issued a visa to Israel, and now Ministers Arbel and Katz have decided to declare her denied entry to the country.


Foreign Minister Katz and Interior Minister Arbel:
"The era of Jews being silent is over.
If the UN wants to return to being a relevant body, its leaders must publicly disavow the anti-Semitic words of the "special envoy" - and fire her immediately. Preventing her from entering Israel might remind her of the real reason why Hamas slaughtered babies, women and adults."
