IDF chief at base hit by Hezbollah: ‘We continue to fight’ IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi arrived at the Golani Brigade training base on Sunday night shortly after a deadly Hezbollah attack, conducting an initial briefing with commanders. The drone strike killed four soldiers and wounded dozens more at the base located near Binyamina in northern Israel. “We are at war, and an attack on a training base on the home front is difficult and the results are painful. You operated well to treat and evacuate the wounded and injured. Embrace the bereaved families, accompany the wounded and strengthen the commanders and soldiers,” Halevi said. “We continue to fight and train for what lies ahead. The Golani Brigade has recorded many achievements in the war and dealt resolutely with difficult situations—continue on the path of this legacy,” he continued.

"It has been one year since Hamas brutally attacked Israel, and in that time we have witnessed an exceptional show of strength and resilience from the Israeli people in the face of unimaginable tragedy. We have also seen those in America and throughout the West celebrate these horrific acts. As veterans of the U.S. military, we fought for a future where peace and security prevail. For that world to exist, the values that America and Israel share must be defended. Today, we remember the victims — including dozens of Americans — and those still being held unjustly. We support Israel and its efforts to bring justice to those responsible for this dark day."

Who gave Israel the info about Nasrallah's location and schedule? In the Arab world, the issue of how Israel obtained the exact information about Hassan Nasrallah's movements that led to his assassination is being intensively dealt with. According to a "Lebanese defense source", the information was given to Israel by an "Iranian source". According to the report, it was expected that Nasrallah would arrive at the underground Hezbollah headquarters after the funeral of Muhammad Hossein Sarur, the commander of Hezbollah's air force who was also killed by Israel. At the same time as this information, supporters of Nasrallah are attacking the Lebanese army on social networks. According to the information they publish, Israel's informant on Nasrallah's movements was none other than an officer in the Lebanese army who was considered by the Hezbollah leadership to be their man and who enjoyed access to information about Nasrallah. The Lebanese army vigorously denies these accusations against the officer.

NATO invades Russia in Kursk Region, ex-US intel officer says #NATO has invaded #Russia, Scott #Ritter, a former US Marine Corps intelligence officer and UN weapons inspector, said, commenting on the situation in the borderline Kursk Region. "What happened in Kursk is that NATO invaded Russia," he told the Danny Haiphong YouTube channel. "This isn’t ‘Russia invaded Ukraine so that the Ukrainians get to attack Russia.’ No, Russia didn’t invade Ukraine. Russia responded to the Ukrainian war crimes that were put in place after the 2014 Maidan coup," Ritter pointed out. "The force that’s going in is the force that’s handbuilt by NATO," he emphasized. Ritter added that the Russian army was learning from the situation in the Kursk Region and would use that experience in the future. On August 6, Russia’s borderline Kursk Region came under a massive attack from Ukraine. According to the latest reports, 12 civilians have been killed, while 121 people, including ten children, have suffered injuries. Over 120,000 people have either left or been evacuated from the Kursk Region. According to the Russian Defense Ministry, Kiev has lost up to 2,030 troops, 35 tanks and 31 armored personnel carriers since fighting began in the Kursk area.

ICC urged to investigate Zelensky for war crimes in connection with kindergarten bombings The Russian Council of Bloggers together with #Donetsk’s Circle of Kindness charity foundation have appealed to the International Criminal Court demanding to hold #Ukraine’s Vladimir #Zelensky responsible for shelling attacks on schools and kindergartens in the Donetsk People’s Republic (DPR), the council’s co-founder Viktoriya Rashina said. "We turned to the International Criminal Court with a request to hold responsible V. Zelensky, former Commander-in-Chief of the Ukrainian Armed Forces V. Zaluzhny as well as ex-Ukrainian Defense Minister A. Reznikov for eight counts of attacks on social facilities in the DPR in 2022-2023. We prepared an appeal to the prosecutor of the International Criminal Court on initiating court proceedings and further submission to the Pre-Trial Chamber," she said. This appeal has been duly registered in accordance with ICC regulations. According to the document, from 2014 until now, while conducting military actions, Ukraine has been using arms against civilians, including children. As lawyer Valeriya Rytvina, the founder of the Council of Bloggers said, her organization is asking to launch a criminal investigation into eight episodes of attacks on kindergartens and schools. "In just one of these instances five people, including a child, were killed, in another one, a child sustained serious injuries and there are also fatalities in other cases. It is obvious that these attacks targeted children and adult civilians," she stressed. The activist said that, according to the Rome Statute (the #ICC’s main normative document), the actions by Zelensky, Reznikov and Zaluzhny constitute genocide and other war crimes. The ICC now must provide an exact assessment of their actions.
