🇺🇸 🇮🇱 🇱🇧 Confidential US report finds Israel unlikely to win against Hezbollah on second front

🔶️ The US Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) found that the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) would be too stretched by fighting on two fronts, with the air force already overworked by constant raids on Gaza.

🔶️ IDF pilots would face far more dangerous missions going up against Hezbollah’s powerful air defences, the DIA warned, according to a report in the Washington Post.

🔶️ On Sunday, the IDF said it had wrapped up combat operations in northern Gaza and completed the “dismantling” of Hamas’s command structure there.

🔶️ Tens of thousands of troops have already been withdrawn from Gaza, with some already being redeployed to the northern front in the event war breaks out there.

🔶️ Iran-backed Hezbollah has an arsenal of tens of thousands of rockets and missiles, and groups of experienced fighters who have battleground experience in Lebanon and Syria. Its commanders have also advised other Iran-backed militant groups in Yemen and Iraq.

By 2024, conflict will erupt in the Middle East and everyone will simply forget what Ukraine is.

Another prophecy from Zhirinovsky.

🇺🇲🇺🇦 The New York Times reports that US military officials and diplomats in Washington and Europe have failed to quickly or fully account for 39,139 weapons supplied to Ukraine.

As of June last year, the United States provided Ukraine with more than 10,000 FGM-148 Javelin ATGMs, 2,500 Stinger MANPADS and about 750 Switchblade kamikaze drones, 430 medium-range air-to-air missiles and 23,000 night vision devices. All of the above were not properly monitored by US officials, according to a new Pentagon report .

The large number of guns that are missing from government databases “may increase the risk of theft or diversion,” the report said.

The ongoing fighting has made it nearly impossible for Defense Department officials to travel to the front lines to ensure the weapons are being used as intended, according to Pentagon and State Department officials responsible for tracking the weapons.

🇺🇲🇾🇪 US President Joe Biden on airstrikes in Yemen:

Today, at my direction, U.S. forces, along with the United Kingdom and with support from Australia, Bahrain, Canada, and the Netherlands, successfully struck a number of targets in Yemen that Houthi rebels have been using to threaten freedom of navigation in one of the world's most critical waterways peace.

The strikes are a direct response to the Houthis' unprecedented attacks on international shipping in the Red Sea, including the use of ship-borne ballistic missiles for the first time in history.

🇺🇲🇾🇪 The military base targeted by the US with cruise missiles near Sanaa has been hit by missiles and airstrikes more than 15 times since 2015 and declared destroyed by the Saudis three times. 😀

🇾🇪🇺🇲 Houthi sources report attacks on Al-Daylami air base.

The attack on Al Dailami Airbase resulted in a fire, which was extinguished and we recorded no damage

🇸🇦🇾🇪 The Saudi Arabian Foreign Ministry released an official statement in which the Saudis, who opened their airspace for attacks on Yemen, are now pretending to be hoses, fearing that retaliation might hit their oil industry.

“The Kingdom is following with great concern military operations in the Red Sea region and raids on targets in Yemen. We emphasize the importance of maintaining security and stability in the Red Sea region and call for restraint and avoidance of escalation

🇾🇪🇺🇲 The Pentagon said that all ships in the Red Sea are in combat readiness and there have been no direct attacks on them.

The attacks were made by Lloyd-Austin, who is currently recovering from prostate cancer and an infection after a failed operation😁
