🎯 ISRAEL WARNS ON SYRIA’S KURDS, DEMANDS FULL HEZBOLLAH DISARMAMENT, FLAGS IRANIAN COORDINATION, AND DELAYS ENFORCEMENT IN JERUSALEM RUN-OVER CASE
🕑 January 8, 2026 | 2:00 PM
⚠️ Lebanon and Hezbollah Disarmament: After the Lebanese Army announced it completed Phase 1 of Hezbollah’s disarmament and disarmed forces south of the Litani River, the Prime Minister’s Office said Hezbollah must be fully disarmed. The statement called Lebanese government and army steps an encouraging beginning, but said they are far from sufficient, citing Hezbollah’s efforts to rearm and rebuild its terror infrastructure with Iranian support.
❗️ Iranian Regional Coordination: Ahead of a perceived possible Israeli strike, Iran dispatched its foreign minister to Lebanon and a senior general to Iraq. The general is Esmail Qaani, who replaced Qassem Soleimani, in what was described as last-minute coordination with Iran’s proxies regarding their respective roles.
🔺 Syria and the Kurds: Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar said attacks by Syrian regime forces against the Kurdish minority in Aleppo are “grave and dangerous.” He said the international community, particularly the West, owes a “debt of honor” to the Kurds for fighting ISIS, and warned that silence will lead to further escalation by the Syrian regime.
⚖️ Jerusalem Run-Over Case: In the Jerusalem protester run-over incident, the court ordered the driver released to house arrest. Enforcement of the decision has been delayed until tomorrow.

🪖 IDF MAINTAINS SUSTAINED COUNTER-TERROR OPERATIONS IN JUDEA AND SAMARIA; STRIKES HEZBOLLAH OPERATIVE IN SOUTHERN LEBANON AND HAMAS TARGETS IN GAZA; NETANYAHU REITERATES DEMILITARIZATION DEMAND
🕑 January 8, 2026 | 7:30 PM
🪖 IDF Paratroopers Complete Six Months of Continuous Operations in Judea and Samaria: IDF paratroopers completed approximately six months of sustained counter-terror operations across Judea and Samaria after intensive fighting in Gaza, Lebanon, and Syria. The brigade maintained continuous activity from north to south, adapting tactics to dense civilian areas and rural environments based on multi-front experience.
In the northern sector, the Paratroopers Reconnaissance Unit operated under the Menashe Brigade as part of Operation Iron Wall, focusing on the Jenin refugee camp. Forces established wide-area control through patrols, ambushes, and systematic searches, seizing large quantities of weapons and dismantling entrenched terror infrastructure.
In central Judea and Samaria, Battalion 890 (“Apeh”) deployed with the Ephraim Brigade, marking its return to the area after years on other fronts. The battalion operated across mixed terrain using drone-supported intelligence, targeted ambushes, and precision operations to neutralize threats and locate arms caches.
Battalion 101 (“Peten”) operated across the Shomron and Benjamin sectors with an intelligence-driven approach focused on terrain familiarity and hostile network mapping. Brigade-level operations emphasized foot movement rather than vehicles to strengthen deterrence and psychological pressure.
In the southern sector, Battalion 202 (“Tzefa”) operated around Hebron under the Judea Brigade, focusing on securing major transportation routes. Frequent sniper ambushes and a visible, persistent presence reduced hostile activity and reinforced deterrence.
🎯 IDF Strikes Hezbollah Operative in Southern Lebanon: Earlier today, in response to Hezbollah’s continued violations of the ceasefire understandings, the IDF struck a Hezbollah terrorist in the Zaita area in southern Lebanon. Lebanese sources reported casualties in an Israeli UAV strike on a vehicle near the village of Bnaafoul in the Sidon district.
🎯 Strikes Reported Against Hamas Targets in Gaza: Hamas-affiliated channels reported two killed and several wounded in a suicide UAV strike in Khan Yunis. Gazan sources also reported several IDF strikes near the Al-Mashtal Hotel in the western part of Gaza City, in an area under Hamas control.
🇮🇱 Netanyahu Meets Nickolay Mladenov and Reiterates Demilitarization Position: Prime Minister Netanyahu met today at the Prime Minister’s Office in Jerusalem with Nickolay Mladenov, who is set to become the Director of the Gaza Strip Board of Peace. The Prime Minister reiterated that Hamas must be disarmed and the Gaza Strip must be demilitarized in accordance with the 20-point plan of President Trump.

🛡️ IRAN DEPLOYS IRGC GROUND FORCES TO MAJOR CITIES, IMPOSES NATIONWIDE INTERNET BLACKOUT AS DEADLY CLASHES CONTINUE; NO VERIFIED RUSSIAN EMBASSY EVACUATION FROM ISRAEL DESPITE UNCONFIRMED TEL AVIV–MOSCOW FLIGHTS
🕑 January 8, 2026 | 8:30 PM
🪧 IRGC Deployment Mehr News, an Iranian state-affiliated outlet, reports that authorities are not relying on the Basij tonight and are instead deploying IRGC Ground Forces into major cities. The report says the IRGC Ground Forces are primarily tasked with regime protection rather than routine policing duties.
❌ Clashes and Arrests in Kermanshah Iranian media outlets report that two IRGC members were killed during clashes in Kermanshah. Separately, Hengaw reports that in Kermanshah, dozens of government forces who refused to open fire on protesters were arrested.
🛜 Confirmed network data show loss of connectivity on Iran’s internet backbone provider TCI in the western city of Kermanshah as protests spread nationwide into their 12th day. The disruption is reported amid rising casualties and indications of outages in multiple regions.
Live monitoring metrics indicate Iran is now experiencing a nationwide internet blackout. The blackout follows escalating digital censorship measures targeting protest activity and has sharply limited the public’s ability to communicate.
Cloudflare Radar reports that Iran’s IPv6 networks have been fully disconnected from the global internet, leaving mobile users without international connectivity. A complete internet blackout has also been reported across Kermanshah Province in western Iran. The outage comes ahead of scheduled anti-government protests.
🛩️ Unverified Russian flights and evacuation claims: Over the past three days, January 6–8, flight-tracking data recorded repeated Tupolev Tu-214 flights between Tel Aviv and Moscow, with Flightradar24 displaying the aircraft as linked to Russia’s Special Flight Squadron. Online speculation claimed the flights reflected an urgent evacuation of Russian embassy staff from Israel.
There is no official confirmation of any evacuation. Aviation analysts caution that aircraft type and operator labels on tracking platforms can be inaccurate, and some assessments suggest the plane may have been a civilian Tu-214 misidentified as a government aircraft.
Russia’s Foreign Ministry and its embassy have issued no statements indicating an evacuation, and major international media have not verified any withdrawal of diplomatic personnel as of January 8. The flights are real, but their purpose remains unverified, and there is currently no verified evidence supporting claims of a full or urgent Russian embassy evacuation from Israel.

⚠️ TRUMP WARNS U.S. WILL STRIKE IRAN IF PROTESTERS ARE KILLED AS IRAN SHUTS DOWN INTERNET AND REGIONAL SECURITY INCIDENTS UNFOLD
🕑 January 9, 2026 | 12:30 AM
🇺🇸 U.S. Warning to Iran and Trump: Remarks: President Trump said the United States would strike Iran “very hard” and make them “pay hell” if protesters are killed.
Asked about reports that 50 protesters have been killed so far, Trump said: “Some have been killed by problems of crowd control. We’re watching it very closely. The crowds are so large there’s been a stampede — three stampedes — and people have been killed in that. I’m not sure I can necessarily hold somebody responsible for that.”
🤝 Planned Trump–Pahlavi Meeting: Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, described as the Iranian king in exile, is scheduled to meet with President Trump next Tuesday at Mar-a-Lago.
🔥 Protests and Arson Across Iran: Protesters reportedly set fire to Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps vehicles, trash bins in city centers, a government building in Tehran, and the Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting building in Isfahan.
Telephone lines were reportedly cut in response.
🛜 Nationwide Internet Shutdown in Iran: By order of the IRGC Cyber Security Command, internet access across Iran was shut down.
All applications, websites, and online services, including Iranian government websites, were reported offline, with internet activity described as having dropped to zero.
🛰️ Starlink Availability Report: Channel 14 News reported that following inquiries by Israeli businessmen acting on behalf of officials, Starlink services were made available throughout Iran.
🎯 IDF Eliminates Hezbollah Drone Operator in Southern Lebanon: Earlier today, the IDF struck and eliminated Alaa Hussein Hawrani in the area of Zaita in southern Lebanon.
According to the IDF, Hawrani was a Hezbollah drone operator involved during the war in rehabilitating infrastructure, activating forces, and attempting to gather intelligence on IDF troops, and he took part in efforts to restore Hezbollah military infrastructure in the area.
❗️ Israeli Navy Fires on Egyptian Vessels Near Gaza: The Israeli Navy opened fire on two Egyptian military vessels after they entered Gaza’s territorial waters.
❗️ Arson and Violence Incident in Samaria: Jews threw Molotov cocktails at several Palestinian vehicles and set them on fire near the village of Beit Lid in Samaria.
According to a report received from the Red Crescent, a Palestinian inside one of the burned vehicles was critically injured.
🪖 IDF Response and Arrests
The IDF stated that soldiers were dispatched to the Shavei Shomron Junction following reports of dozens of masked Israeli suspects vandalizing property in the area.
According to the IDF, the suspects set Palestinian vehicles on fire on a route adjacent to the community and attacked a Palestinian who was inside one of the vehicles, with two Palestinians injured and evacuated for medical treatment.
The IDF said soldiers apprehended three suspects and transferred them to the Israel Police, searches are continuing, and the incident is under investigation.
The IDF stated it condemns any form of violence and will continue operating to safeguard security and public order in the area.

❗️TRUMP WARNS IRAN AGAINST FIRING ON UNARMED PROTESTERS AS INTERNET BLACKOUT AND FLIGHT CANCELLATIONS CONTINUE; KHAMENEI VOWS CRACKDOWN ON ALLEGED FOREIGN-BACKED OPERATIVES AND REFUSES TO BACK DOWN AMID VANDALISM
🕑 January 9, 2026 | 11:00 AM
⚠️ US WARNING TO IRANIAN LEADERSHIP: Asked whether Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei has a Plan B to go to Russia amid nationwide protests, US President Donald Trump told Fox News that “he’s looking to go some place.” Trump said the United States is ready to act in support of protests in Iran and that US warnings have been conveyed to officials in Tehran.
“There’s so many people protesting. Nobody’s ever seen anything like what’s happening right now, but I have put Iran on notice that if they start shooting at them — these people are totally unarmed people, and they love their country,” Trump told Sean Hannity on Fox. “They want something to happen. Look at their country. They’ve gone back 150 years. But I’ve warned them that if they do anything bad to these people, we’re going to hit them very hard,” Trump said. “I’ve said it very loud and very clear, that’s what we’re going to do.”
🗣️ Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei issued a warning message addressing internal unrest and outside involvement.
Khamenei stated: “IRAN WON'T TOLERATE FOREIGN-BACKED OPERATIVES.”
He added: “IRAN WON'T BACK DOWN IN THE FACE OF VANDALISM.”
🔴 IRAN OFFLINE AMID PROTESTS: A comprehensive communications blackout from and into Iran is continuing as of this hour. Iran has now been offline for approximately 16 hours, with national connectivity flatlining at around 1 percent of ordinary levels after authorities imposed a nationwide internet blackout.
Coordinated mass demonstrations unfolded nationwide on Thursday night following a direct call from Prince Reza Pahlavi that specified both the action and the timing. It remains unclear what happened overnight, though there are troubling but unconfirmed reports of high casualty figures from regime attacks on unarmed protesters.
Another message from the son of the last Shah of Iran later called for unity, organization of the protest movement, and additional demonstrations tonight starting at 20:00 local time.
✈️ FLIGHTS TO TEHRAN HALTED: Several flights from Turkey to Iran were diverted back mid-flight overnight. Turkish Airlines has officially canceled all Istanbul–Tehran flights scheduled for Friday, according to airport officials.

🎯 IDF COMPLETES ALPINIST UNIT WINTER READINESS ON MOUNT HERMON AS ISRAEL CONDUCTS ROUTINE ENFORCEMENT AIRSTRIKES IN SOUTHERN LEBANON
🕑 January 9, 2026 | 1:00 PM
❄️ Alpinist Unit Winter Readiness: Troops from the IDF Alpinist Reservist Unit completed their annual series of specialized training exercises at the Mount Hermon summit in Syria, focused on operating in extreme weather and complex mountainous terrain. The drills included use of the unit’s dedicated equipment for snow and severe cold conditions.
In recent days, the unit joined the 810th Brigade for a defensive mission at the Mount Hermon summit, alongside its ongoing defensive activity in the Golan Heights. The deployment is intended to support conditions for the safe opening of the Mount Hermon site to visitors.
💥 Routine Enforcement Strikes in Lebanon: The Kiryat Shmona Municipality spokesperson reported that IDF strikes began in the Lebanon area, and echoes of explosions may be heard in Kiryat Shmona, the Galilee, and the northern Golan Heights. The municipality said there is no change in the situation assessment, no impact on the civilian area, and no special instructions at this stage.
Reports said approximately 20 targets have been struck so far in southern Lebanon, with additional airstrikes reported in the south and the Beqaa region. Locations cited include Sajd, al-Rayhan, Mount al-Rafee, and Kfar Fila, with reported Israeli arrivals in Deir al-Zahrani and Houmin al-Fawqa in southern Lebanon.
Israeli army radio reported the strikes are routine enforcement actions and not extraordinary in nature.

💥 IDF ARRESTS TERROR CELL IN JUDEA AND SAMARIA, STRIKES HEZBOLLAH INFRASTRUCTURE IN LEBANON, AS IRAN IMPOSES INTERNET BLACKOUT AMID EXTREMELY DEADLY PROTESTS
🕑 January 9, 2026 | 2:00 PM
❌ Judea and Samaria Counterterrorism Operations: Over the past week, IDF operating under the direction of the Israel Security Agency (Shin Bet) carried out counterterrorism operations across Judea and Samaria. In Hebron, Judea Brigade forces and the Duvdevan Unit arrested a terrorist cell preparing an imminent attack. Earlier arrests by the Paratroopers Brigade’s 202nd Battalion included two suspects from Hebron and Bani Na’im involved in building terrorist infrastructure.
Binyamin Brigade forces arrested 12 wanted suspects and destroyed lathes used to manufacture weapons. In Beitunia, troops raided a shop and seized military equipment linked to terrorist activity. In the Menashe Brigade sector, forces operated in Silat al-Harithiya, arresting suspects and seizing an M16 rifle.
Additional operations by the Samaria, Etzion, and Ephraim Brigades took place in several villages and in Tulkarm, resulting in the arrest of 25 wanted suspects, including individuals involved in stone-throwing attacks. Thousands of shekels intended for terrorist financing were seized. All detainees and confiscated weapons were transferred to the Judea and Samaria District Police and the Shin Bet for further processing.
💥 Northern Command Strikes in Lebanon: The IDF struck Hezbollah terror infrastructure in several areas in Lebanon, targeting weapons storage facilities and a weapons production site used for the organization’s rehabilitation and military buildup. Several launch sites, rocket launchers, and military structures were also struck.
According to the IDF, these sites were used by Hezbollah to advance terror attacks against the State of Israel and IDF soldiers. The IDF said the targets struck, and Hezbollah’s reestablishment activity at these sites, violate the understandings between Israel and Lebanon and pose a threat to the State of Israel.
⚠️ Iran Internet Blackout and Protest Deaths: The US Department of State’s Persian account stated: “The Islamic Republic has completely cut off the internet to silence the voices of the Iranian people, but you cannot shut down willpower like a network connection. The people of Iran: The world still hears you and sees you!”
🚨 An Iranian journalist reported, based on conversations with eyewitnesses and a hospital surgeon in Tehran, that the number of people killed overnight in Tehran, Karaj, and Shahriar is significant. The surgeon said, “I was in the operating room all night,” and confirmed that “the number of protesters killed is higher than during the 12-day war.”, implying, more than a thousand.

♟️ ISRAELI AND U.S. INTELLIGENCE ASSESS IRANIAN REGIME UNLIKELY TO FALL AMID ONGOING PROTESTS AS DEADLY CRACKDOWN CONTINUES, WHILE SEVERE WINTER STORM CAUSES FATALITIES AND INFRASTRUCTURE DISRUPTION IN ISRAEL
♟️ Iran protests and regime assessments: Israeli security officials told Israel Hayom that current assessments indicate the Iranian regime is unlikely to collapse at this stage and is also unlikely to redirect aggression toward Israel. They said the regime is expected to remain in power unless Basij forces join the protesters. Officials described the protests as serious and requiring close monitoring, but stressed the need for proportion and assessed that overturning the regime would require a far deeper structural shift than what is currently underway. Israel continues ongoing situation assessments and monitoring.
Early this week, U.S. intelligence assessed that the protests in Iran lacked sufficient momentum to threaten the stability of the Iranian government, though that view is now being reassessed in light of recent events. A senior U.S. official said: “The protests are serious, and we will continue to monitor them.”
🗣️ Iranian leadership responses: Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqhchi said: “The US and Israel are seeking to turn peaceful protests in Iran into a state of violence.” He also said: “The possibility of military intervention against Iran is minimal.” Iran’s National Security Council said: “We will confront and thwart sabotage operations. President Trump’s statements indicate full coordination with the Zionist entity to target Iran’s security.”
💢 A video shared with us, not shown here, was described as showing Iranians shot and killed by the Islamic Regime’s security forces. Witnesses said around 50 protesters were shot and murdered with a heavy machine gun mounted on a Toyota in the city of Fardis.
🔹 Elite contingency discussions: According to The Economist, discussions have taken place inside Iran that would result in Supreme Leader Khamenei leaving Iran in exchange for keeping the Iranian regime in place. Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf has reportedly attempted to secure visas via a Paris-based lawyer, and a nephew of former president Hassan Rouhani is also seeking a visa. Le Figaro reported that senior Iranian officials have approached French authorities via intermediaries in Oman to secure visas for their families.
⛈️ Severe winter storm impacts in Israel: A short but intense winter storm has hit Israel, causing damage and injuries. In Ashkelon, a man was moderately injured after his vehicle overturned due to a fallen tree. Trees also collapsed in other locations, including Bnei Brak. Route 90 was closed from the Dargot Junction to the Dead Sea hotels because of flooding and serious safety concerns.
The storm is expected to peak Friday evening, with very strong winds forecast. Gusts may reach 100–115 km/h along the coast and in the lowlands, and 90–100 km/h in mountainous areas. Rain is expected to ease toward the evening after the onset of Shabbat. On Saturday, localized rain will continue mainly in northern and central Israel, with temperatures slightly lower but remaining seasonal. Rain is expected to intensify again Saturday night after Shabbat, then gradually weaken on Sunday, when conditions will become partly cloudy and warmer, with only light, localized rain possible in the north. Forecasts indicate another rain system may arrive starting Monday, bringing renewed rainfall to northern Israel and the possibility of isolated thunderstorms.
Fatal incident on the coast
A man in his 40s was killed while kite surfing at the beach in Rishon LeZion.

🎯 IDF STRIKE TERROR TARGETS IN GAZA AND ELIMINATE HAMAS OPERATIVES FOLLOWING FAILED PROJECTILE LAUNCH; ISRAELI CYBER AUTHORITY WARNS AFTER MASS SPAM MESSAGE SENT TO PHONES ACROSS ISRAEL
🕑 January 10, 2026 | 6:00 PM
❌ Strikes launched after failed projectile from Gaza City area: After a failed projectile launch toward Israel from the Gaza City area, the IDF and Israel’s internal security service carried out strikes against terror targets in the southern and northern Gaza Strip. The IDF said multiple terrorists from Hamas and additional terrorist organizations were eliminated.
🎯 Senior Hamas operatives named among those eliminated: The IDF said those eliminated include Kamal Abd al-Rahman Muhammad Awad, described as head of Hamas’ anti-tank missile array, and Ahmad Thabet, described as the head of a workshop within a Hamas department and a key source of knowledge in weapons manufacturing and production used for launches toward Israel.
💥 October 7 infiltrator targeted, results still under review: The IDF also said Ahmad Abd al-Fattah Saeed Maghdalawi, described as a Nukhba terrorist in the Nuseirat Battalion who infiltrated Israel and took part in the October 7 massacre, including the attack on the Nova music festival, was targeted. The results of that strike are under review.
❌ Command-and-control site struck amid imminent attack planning: In an additional strike in the northern Gaza Strip, the IDF said four Hamas terrorists operating from a command and control compound were eliminated. The compound was described as a weapons storage site used to advance attack plans throughout the war, including preparations for an imminent attack against IDF forces operating in northern Gaza.
🔹 Tunnel shafts and weapons facilities struck; ground activity continues: The IDF said additional Hamas targets were struck, including eight launch tunnel shafts, two weapons production facilities, and three weapons storage facilities, describing this as a significant degradation of Hamas’ and other terrorist organizations’ operational capabilities. IDF troops are continuing to dismantle terrorist infrastructure in the area of the Yellow Line in northern Gaza.
🔹 Rocket launcher located in Jabaliya area: The IDF said that yesterday, during activity to locate weapons in the Jabaliya area, troops located a rocket launcher with two loaded rockets that were ready to be launched toward Israel.
🕸️ The National Cyber Authority issued a statement after many people across Israel received a mass spam message in English reading: “We are coming. Look at the sky in the midnight.”
The authority said phones that received the message were not compromised and that it is safe to block the sending number and delete the message.
Assessments cited in the statement attribute the message to Iranian regime terrorists.

❗️IRAN PROTESTS PEAK AS REGIME ARRESTS LEADERS, ALLEGEDLY HOLDS PROTESTERS’ BODIES, AND OPPOSITION CALLS FOR NATIONWIDE STRIKES
🕑 January 10, 2026 | 06:45 PM
🔴 Tehran developments: First confirmed video from Tehran tonight shows large crowds forming, with information and visual evidence received via Starlink. The material indicates that regime forces kidnapped the bodies of murdered protesters and are holding them at the El Ghadir medical center, preventing transfer for burial. A video received via Starlink shows at least 20 bodies in body bags inside a building in Tehran, reportedly of murdered protesters.
🔥 Scale of unrest and casualties: Unofficial estimates covering the past two weeks indicate significant riots in dozens of cities, including Tehran, Mashhad, Isfahan, and Karaj. Iranian opposition sources report hundreds of fatalities among protesters. Regime-affiliated channels report dozens of fatalities among members of the regime’s security forces. There are at least hundreds of detained protesters, possibly thousands. The protests are at their peak, with major events occurring in the evening hours, and the trend points toward further escalation.
⚠️ Regime messaging and arrests: Reports claiming that Khamenei has been killed are false. The Iranian news agency "Mehr" claims that Iranian security forces have arrested about 200 protest leaders and seized large quantities of weapons and munitions. Iran’s Supreme National Security Council stated: "Iran is in the middle of a war...there is no peace and no ceasefire...the rioters are a quasi-terrorist group...moving towards the military and law enforcement centers to obtain weapons...trying to start a civil war."
✊ Opposition leadership call to action: Reza Pahlavi, son of the last Shah of Iran, issued guidance for the next steps of the protests, calling for demonstrations today and tomorrow at 18:00 and for taking over city centers. He said: “I call on workers and employees in key sectors of the economy – especially transportation, oil and gas, and energy – to begin a nationwide strike. I also ask all of you, today and tomorrow, Saturday and Sunday, this time starting at 18:00, to take to the streets with flags, pictures, and national symbols, and to reclaim public spaces for yourselves. Our goal is no longer just to take to the streets; the goal is to prepare to seize the city centers and hold them. I am preparing to return to the homeland so that at the moment of victory of our national revolution, I can stand by your side, the great nation of Iran. I believe that day is very near.”
🇺🇸 U.S. messaging and military indications: The U.S. State Department’s Persian-language account stated that Khamenei claims that the protesters "destroyed a building belonging to their own country to please the President of the United States." It added that what angers him may be that the Iranian people have realized the truth about 47 years of lies and the regime’s failure, and that the 47th President of the United States stands with them. There are initial indications of re-deployment of U.S. military equipment back to the Middle East in the coming days.

⚠️ ISRAEL AND U.S. WEIGH IRAN REGIME STABILITY AS UNREST SPURS OPPOSITION CONTACTS, CONTINGENCY STRIKE PLANNING, AND INFRASTRUCTURE SHUTDOWNS WHILE TEHRAN ALLEGES FOREIGN DIRECTION AND REPORTS MOSSAD-LINKED ARREST
🕑 January 10, 2026 | 10:30 PM
♟️ Israeli media report that the IDF has revised its previous assessments on Iran and now believes the demonstrations pose a threat to the government. Israel has also reportedly begun meeting with representatives of the Iranian opposition.
Channel 12 News reports that Israeli officials assess President Trump will fulfill his promise regarding carrying out strikes against Iranian regime. The Wall Street Journal reports senior Trump administration officials have held preliminary discussions about how to carry out an attack on Iran if needed, including what sites might be targeted.
One option discussed is a large-scale aerial strike on multiple Iranian military targets, according to U.S. officials cited by the Wall Street Journal. U.S. officials also said there was no consensus on a course of action, no military equipment or personnel had been moved in preparation for a strike, and these conversations were described as normal planning with no sign of an imminent attack.
There are initial indications of a re-deployment of U.S. military equipment back to the Middle East in the coming days, though U.S. officials cited by the Wall Street Journal said no movements have yet occurred in preparation for a strike.
Al Jazeera reports that a U.S. official said: “Our forces in the Middle East have not received orders to be ready for any military action in connection with the protests in Iran.”
🛸 Unidentified drones were reported over Tehran. Information shared via Starlink indicates the Iranian regime are cutting off electricity in areas where protests are being held in the capital tonight.
💢 Senior Iranian and Turkish officials issued statements blaming Israel and the United States for the current unrest in Iran.
Ali Larijani, Secretary of the Iranian National Security Council, said: “We are in the middle of a war. Neither peace nor a ceasefire has been established. Under such circumstances, creating a new crisis is not rational, and these events are being directed from outside. Israel is responsible for the current situation in Iran”.
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi said: “The U.S. and Israel intended to do in Iran during the 12-day war what they did in Venezuela, but they failed”.
Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan said regarding the protests in Iran: “I can clearly see that Israel will not get the ending it expects. The Iranian people know the issues they need to respond to, for whose benefit, and to what extent”.
❌ Iran’s IRGC Intelligence Organization says it arrested a foreign national allegedly working for Mossad.
It said the individual entered Iran to gather information and assess the situation for the Israeli intelligence service.
🗣️ Iranian President is expected to address the nation tomorrow.
🇮🇱 Prime Minister Netanyahu said: “Radical Islam poses a greater global threat than communism or China.”

🎯 U.S.-LED COALITION LAUNCHES OPERATION HAWKEYE STRIKE AGAINST ISIS TARGETS ACROSS SYRIA AS WASHINGTON CONDUCTS PARALLEL DIPLOMACY IN DAMASCUS
🕑 January 10, 2026 | 11:00 PM
💥 U.S.-led airstrikes against ISIS across Syria: U.S. officials confirmed an ongoing aerial operation targeting ISIS positions across Syria, including multiple airstrikes reported near the Iraq–Syria border. British and French forces are supporting the operation, with indications the aircraft launched from Jordan.
At approximately 12:30 p.m. Eastern Time, U.S. Central Command, together with partner forces, carried out large-scale strikes against multiple Islamic State targets across Syria. The strikes are part of Operation Hawkeye Strike, launched on December 19, 2025, at the direction of President Trump following a deadly ISIS attack on December 13, 2025, near Palmyra that killed two U.S. soldiers and one U.S. civilian interpreter. The stated aims are to dismantle ISIS networks, prevent future attacks, and protect U.S. and partner forces in the region. U.S. officials underscored a firm deterrence message, warning that those who harm American warfighters will be pursued and killed anywhere in the world.
🔹 Diplomatic engagement in Damascus amid military action: The strikes coincided with a diplomatic visit by U.S. Special Envoy for Syria Tom Barrack, who met in Damascus with Syria’s new leadership, including President Ahmed al-Sharaa and Foreign Minister Asaad al-Shaibani. Barrack said the meetings were conducted on behalf of President Trump and Secretary of State Marco Rubio and focused on developments in Aleppo and the broader path forward for Syria’s political transition. He said the United States welcomes Syria’s “historic transition” and expressed support for the Syrian government under President al-Sharaa.
▪️ Syria’s regional position and official responses: Syrian Information Minister Hamza al-Mustafa said, "We are not expecting to be part of the Abraham Accords, at least in the short and midterm".

⚠️ ISRAEL RAISES SECURITY ALERT OVER IRAN REGIME UNREST WHILE HOLDING BACK HEZBOLLAH ACTION, ELIMINATING IMMEDIATE THREATS IN GAZA, AND NEUTRALIZING A RAMMING ATTEMPT IN JUDEA AND SAMARIA
🕑 January 10, 2026 | 11:30 PM
🚨 IRAN REGIME UNREST AND ISRAELI PREPAREDNESS: Israel is preparing for the possible collapse of the Iranian regime in the coming weeks and has placed its security services on heightened alert. Israeli intelligence is monitoring Tehran’s next moves amid domestic turmoil and concerns that Iran could activate Hamas or Hezbollah in a last-ditch attempt to divert pressure away from the regime.
An Israeli official told Channel 12: "IDF Chief of Staff Eyal Zamir held consultations over the weekend, and the security establishment is monitoring developments in Iran. Israel has no intention of launching an attack, but is preparing for any surprise scenario". Israel sees an opportunity to overthrow the Iranian government amid ongoing protests and statements from world leaders, but officials prefer to wait and avoid actions that could link the protest movement to Israel.
🇮🇱🇺🇸 Prime Minister Netanyahu has called off military action against Hezbollah on multiple occasions in recent weeks in order to avoid triggering a retaliatory front. New reports say US President Trump is asking Israel to attack Hezbollah.
⚠️ TRUMP-RELATED REPORTING AND CLAIMS: “Trump has already made up his mind,” describing press reports that “Trump could strike Iran” as pressure tactics aimed at pushing Khamenei to give up power, and asserting that operations were planned in advance and shelved, with only execution remaining.
⚠️ New eports from Iran of hundreds of protesters being killed by regime forces.
🇺🇸 President Donald Trump on Truth Social: "Iran is looking at FREEDOM, perhaps like never before. The USA stands ready to help!!! President DONALD J. TRUMP".
🗣️ “Help is on the way,” Senator Lindsey Graham said in a message to the Iranian people.
🛩️ Lufthansa has canceled all flights to Iran through January 20.
💥 GAZA: IDF RESPONSES TO IMMEDIATE THREATS NEAR THE YELLOW LINE: Earlier today in the southern Gaza Strip, IDF troops identified three terrorists who crossed the Yellow Line and approached the troops, posing an immediate threat. One of the terrorists attempted to steal IDF equipment and subsequently fled, and the IAF eliminated the terrorist west of the Yellow Line to remove the threat.
In two additional incidents in the northern Gaza Strip today, IDF troops identified several terrorists who crossed the Yellow Line and approached the troops, posing an immediate threat. The IDF eliminated two terrorists to remove the threat.
🪖 Against the backdrop of Hamas's refusal to disarm, Israel is preparing for the resumption of fighting in Gaza.
🔪 JUDEA AND SAMARIA: REPORTED ATTEMPTED RAMMING: A report was received regarding an attempted ramming of IDF soldiers in the Haret al-Sheikh area, and details are under review. Soldiers operating in the area responded to the threat and opened fire at the terrorist who attempted to run them over, neutralizing him. No IDF injuries were reported.

⚠️ ISRAEL PLACES SECURITY SERVICES ON MAXIMUM ALERT AS TRUMP CONSIDERS STRIKE OPTIONS AGAINST IRAN AMID REGIME CRACKDOWN; IRAN FACES NATIONWIDE LETHAL CRACKDOWN AS INTERNET BLACKOUT CONTINUES AND SECURITY CONTROL SHIFTS TO IRGC
🕑 January 11, 2026 | 8:00 AM
⚠️ Israel raises alert level: Israel has moved to a state of maximum alert following images emerging from Iran and public threats from U.S. President Trump toward Tehran, according to Israeli Channel 13.
The New York Times reported that President Trump has not made a final decision but is seriously considering authorizing strikes in response to the Iranian regime’s efforts to suppress demonstrations set off by widespread economic grievances. Officials said the president has been presented with a range of options, including strikes on nonmilitary sites in Tehran, with sources speaking on condition of anonymity due to the sensitivity of the discussions.
The New York Times also reported that President Trump has been briefed in recent days on fresh military strike options as he considers how to respond to the Islamic Republic’s crackdown on protesters. Separately, Axios reported that U.S. Secretary of State Rubio held a phone call with Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu on Saturday, during which the two discussed protests in Iran, along with Gaza and Syria.
🚨 Reports of mass fatalities and a widening crackdown: Two eyewitnesses who visited Kahrizak in search of their loved ones told Iran International they saw more than 400 bodies there. On Friday alone, 44 bodies were transferred to Madani Hospital in Karaj and 36 to Ghaem Hospital in Karaj, with medical sources in other cities also reporting a high number of fatalities.
🔴 Indications of widespread killings amid limited visibility: Informed sources told Iran International that security forces are using deadly force nationwide during a near-total internet shutdown. Footage from multiple locations, including Kahrizak south of Tehran, Fardis in Karaj, and hospitals in eastern Tehran, shows numerous bodies, suggesting killings not confined to a few cities, with similar accounts emerging from Ilam and Kermanshah. The internet shutdown has continued for more than 60 consecutive hours. The blackout that began on January 8 has severely limited verification, yet consistent reports continue to arrive through narrow channels, including Starlink users primarily in major cities, leaving large areas with little visibility. Even so, journalists report credible indications that protests persist nationwide. Conservative estimates suggest at least 2,000 people may have been killed over the past 48 hours, including reports of a single hospital in Rasht receiving at least 70 bodies.
❗️ Security control centralized as unrest escalates: Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei is described as confronting an existential crisis as nationwide unrest intensifies. He reportedly distrusts parts of the regular security apparatus and has transferred responsibility for suppressing protests to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, signaling the regime now views the situation as a threat to its survival rather than a containable protest movement.
Reports describe four remaining options, each carrying severe risk. The regime is currently pursuing full repression, including lethal force, snipers, mass arrests, sweeping internet and phone blackouts, power cuts, and total security mobilization. Limited concessions or dialogue are described as a possible de-escalation path but one that could signal weakness and accelerate collapse. External escalation through regional confrontation could rally hard-liners but risks overwhelming retaliation and catastrophic miscalculation. Exile is presented as a final option, with potential destinations including Moscow or Najaf, and would be a clear admission of failure that would effectively end his ability to rule.

🕑 January 11, 2026 | 9:30 AM
♟️ Regional security preparedness: Intelligence assessments indicate that potential action in the Middle East may occur in the coming weeks. According to sources, Israel and the United States are preparing for the “day after,” with additional military equipment expected to move into the region in the coming hours and days. There are also unconfirmed reports of a B-52 bomber being spotted over western Iraq.
⚠️ Iranian warning: The Speaker of Iran’s parliament warned that if the United States attacks, Iran would launch missiles toward Israel and U.S. bases in the region. The statement was issued amid rising regional tensions.
〰️ Earthquake felt in Lebanon An earthquake was felt in Beirut late on January 10, 2026, with reports continuing into the early hours of January 11. Residents described noticeable shaking shortly before midnight, and preliminary seismic assessments indicated a moderate tremor of approximately magnitude 3.9–4.0, with an epicenter offshore in the eastern Mediterranean near the Lebanese coast.
❌ IDF activity in Nablus: During IDF activity in Nablus, an IDF soldier was moderately injured by gunfire directed at the force. The soldier was evacuated to hospital for medical treatment, and his family was notified. IDF forces launched a pursuit following the shooting.
🪖 Suspected ramming incident under review: Following reports of an attempted ramming attack in the Haret al-Sheikh area, an initial review found that IDF soldiers fired at a vehicle that accelerated toward them due to concerns of an imminent threat. At this stage, there are no conclusive findings that the incident constituted an intentional terror attack, and the matter remains under review.
〽️ Gaza stabilization force initiative: Bangladesh announced that it has informed the United States of its desire to join an International Stabilization Force that would be deployed in Gaza. The announcement followed a meeting in Washington between Bangladeshi National Security Advisor Khalilur Rahman and senior U.S. State Department officials aimed at advancing the initiative.

🛡️ ISRAEL PLACES SECURITY SERVICES ON HIGH ALERT AMID IRAN CONTINGENCY PREPARATIONS, NETANYAHU WARNINGS, REPORTED IRGC TARGETING, IRGC–HEZBOLLAH ACTIVITY IN LEBANON
🕑 January 11, 2026 | 12:30 PM
⚠️ Israeli security preparations: Prime Minister Netanyahu will convene a special security assessment meeting this evening with the heads of the IDF and other Israeli security services. Israeli Channel 12 reports that Israel estimates President Trump may carry out the threat against Iran and is preparing for the possibility of an Iranian attack. Netanyahu warned: "If Iran attacks us, there will be devastating consequences". He also said: "It seems that this moment when Iranians will take their destiny into their own hands and the start of the revolution is happening from within,".
♟️ Intelligence and operational readiness: Israel Hayom reports that the Israel Security Agency (Shin Bet) has urgently summoned a number of senior IDF officers to the Kirya complex. The report says this is part of a special preparation to form an accurate intelligence and operational picture regarding developments in Iran, and it was also confirmed by Kobi Finkler of Channel 14.
