    Israel’s deadly rampage on Lebanon

    Wednesday, 8 April 2026 — Al Mayadeen English

    The Lebanese Civil Defense announced that 254 people were martyred and 1,165 others were injured in this afternoon’s Israeli aggression on Lebanon.

    It detailed that the toll is distributed as follows:
    – Beirut: 92 martyrs and 742 injured
    – Beirut’s Southern Suburb: 61 martyrs and 200 injured
    – Baalbek: 18 martyrs and 28 injured
    – Hermel: 9 martyrs and 6 injured
    – Nabatieh: 28 martyrs and 59 wounded
    – Alay: 17 martyrs, 6 injured
    – Saida: 12 martyrs, 56 injured
    – Tyre: 17 martyrs and 68 injured

    The General Directorate of the Civil Defense added that its teams are continuing their search and rescue operations, while also clearing debris at several sites, suggesting that the “death toll is likely to rise as field operations proceed.”

    It further called on “citizens to cooperate with the teams working in the field and allow them to perform their duties to the best of their ability.”

    Israel’s answer to the ‘ceasefire’: it slaughters the innocent in Lebanon

    Wednesday, 8 April 2026 — The Cradle

    ❗️Statement issued by Hezbollah:

    “Driven by blind hatred, entrenched criminality, and boundless brutality that has become inherent to its nature, the Israeli enemy today carried out a wave of massacres against civilians, targeting residential areas with dozens of violent airstrikes in the southern suburbs, Beirut, Sidon, the south, and the Bekaa, leaving hundreds of martyrs and wounded, including children, women, and the elderly.

    Israel breaks ceasefire: Iran closes Hormuz

    Wednesday, 8 April 2026 — Al Mayadeen English

    A source in the Iranian Navy announced that the Strait of Hormuz has effectively been sealed off, with only Iranian vessels and ships coming from Iran allowed to pass, underscoring Tehran’s staying true to its words in case of any ceasefire violation.

    The source added that just two oil tankers managed to pass through the strait during a brief ceasefire window before “Israel” violated the agreement.

    Western Media Hails More Ukraine “Wonder Weapons” That Russia Also Has

    Tuesday, 7 April 2026 — New Eastern Outlook

    Brian Berletic

    The Western media has shifted much of its attention toward the most recently launched US war of aggression in the Middle East against Iran, but corners of the Western media remain dedicated to shaping public perception regarding many other fronts along the US’ global war on multipolarism, including the ongoing US proxy war on Russia in Ukraine.

    Al Mayadeen documents aftermath of Israeli massacre in a cafe in Saida, South Lebanon

    Wednesday, 8 April 2026 — Al Mayadeen English

    Al Mayadeen’s correspondent Jamal Ghourabi documents the aftermath of an Israeli massacre at a café in Saida, South Lebanon, where 9 civilians were martyred, and more than 20 were wounded.

    As can be seen in the video, the cafe was full of civilians, young and old, as even baby clothes and strollers were left behind after the massacre.

    The US military operation ‘Epic Fury’ against Iran is ongoing, but the possibility of a diplomatic resolution to the conflict is not ruled out.

    By Wyatt Reed

    The Grayzone and Wyatt Reed

    After a top reporter at the BBC drew outrage for publishing a quote demanding Iran be nuked, she’s been revealed as a dedicated regime change activist whose career was launched by a CIA-founded propaganda network. Serious questions remain about the BBC’s editorial process.

    US Pilot Psyop: Iran’s Air Defense Domination, Israel’s ground war Paralysis, Sacrificed Gulf States

    Monday, 6 April 2026 — MintPress News

    While corporate outlets recycle Pentagon talking points about a “heroic rescue attempt,” after Iran devastated U.S. Military assets MintPress geoplitical analyst Robert Inlakesh helps answer the questions everyone is asking:

    Why did Fox News accidentally admit hundreds of US special forces are already operating inside Iran? And how did Hezbollah’s cheap, commercially-available FPV drones just rewrite the rules of asymmetric warfare?

    This isn’t just about one mission. It’s about the collapse of US air supremacy, Israel’s existential inability to fight on the ground, and the Gulf monarchies being positioned as cannon fodder for a war they didn’t choose.

    Iran’s Jewish community has strongly condemned the destruction of the Rafi’-Nia synagogue in central Tehran following US-Israeli attacks, denouncing the targeting of both religious sites and the country as a whole.

    China in a Post-Hegemonic Era: Testing the Limits of Diplomatic Power

    Tuesday, 7 April 2026 — New Eastern Outlook

    Ricardo Martins

    China’s call for Israeli withdrawal from southern Lebanon and its proposal for a multilateral peace initiative signal more than a diplomatic intervention. They reflect Beijing’s gradual emergence as a geopolitical actor seeking to shape conflict management in a context of declining hegemonic coordination and increasing fragmentation of the international order.

    China in a Post-Hegemonic Era: Testing the Limits of Diplomatic Power

    Chinese President Xi Jinping’s recent statement calling for the immediate withdrawal of Israeli forces from southern Lebanon—and warning against the risk of the region “becoming another Gaza”—should not be read merely as rhetorical positioning. Rather, it signals a calibrated step in Beijing’s gradual insertion into Middle Eastern diplomacy, reflecting both normative framing and strategic intent, as I will try to explain below.

    Buildings under construction at the OpenAI data center in Abilene, Texas, Sept. 23, 2025. The AI boom has depended on Gulf sovereign wealth funds to finance construction — the same funds now seeking to exit their commitments as war engulfs their home region.

    The U.S. war on Iran has reached the data centers that power the AI boom.

    Iran AMBUSHES US Special Ops, Trump BEGS for 45-Day Ceasefire | Jon Elmer & Justin Podur

    Monday, 6 April 2026 — Chronicles of Haiphong

    Iran just exposed a major US ground operation masquerading as a rescue operation of the F-15 pilot and the consequences are devastating. Now Trump is responding with pleas for 45-day ceasefire while escalating the war rhetorically as Iran hits back for the 98th wave of Operation True Promise 4. Jon Elmer of the Resistance Report and Justin Podur of the anti-Empire project join the show to break down the latest military updates.

    Day 27 of War on Iran: Why the US is Losing | Ali Alizadeh & Robert Inlakesh

    27 March 2026 — MintPress News

    On this episode of the MintCast, MintPress News director Mnar Adley breaks her silence after being targeted by a MAGA extremist, and dives deep into Day 27 of the US-Israel war on Iran with iranian political analyst Ali Alizadeh who is based in London and Robert Inlakesh, MintPress staff writer and MidEast Geopolitical analyst.

    Trump thought he could decapitate Iran’s leadership and the whole country would collapse. He was dead wrong. On Day 27 of the US-Israel war on Iran, the opposite has happened: Iran is more united than ever, US military bases across the Middle East are being systematically destroyed, and Israel’s air defense systems are running dry.

    The White House is now claiming they achieved “regime change” – but that’s a lie. Iran’s new leadership is more anti-imperialist than ever, and they have a message for US troops: “Come closer and find out.”

    At the opening of the 2026 White House Easter Egg Roll, US President Donald Trump justified the ongoing US-Israeli war on Iran, claiming it “could end very quickly” if Tehran “do[es] what they have to do,” while alleging that Washington has already achieved a “total regime change.”

    Monday, 6 April 2026 — Radhika Desai

    Dimitri Lascaris, Award-winning Corporate Lawyer, Activist and Journalist of the Reason2Resist channel joins me for a wide and deep chat on his return from a 10-day trip to Iran during which he felt the pulse of the embattled but brave country and its people. He was already talking to politicians and ordinary people before he became something of a celebrity after his breakdown at witnessing an badly wounded and unconscious child on life support who had lost all her family was videoed and appeared on national TV. Thereafter, people would greet him on the streets, talk and express their thoughts and feelings, about their country, the war and their determination not to give in.

    • Robert Inlakesh

    Robert Inlakesh explains the historical, military, geographic, and political realities that foiled US-Israeli plans to use Kurdish militias against Iran.

    At the beginning of the US-Israeli War on Iran, stories were circulated about the United States attempting to use Kurdish militia groups in order to wage a ground offensive against Iran. Yet the strategy never ended up getting off the ground. Understanding the context helps explain what happened
