Hezbollah: 250 Missiles Land on Israel in One Day

CROSSFIREARABIA – It’s being described as a black day as 250 Hezbollah missiles land on Israel from southern Lebanon in under 24 hours.

For Israel, it’s a first nation-wide alert with 24th November, 2024 likely to be remembered as one of the most difficult days between the Israeli army and Hezbollah fighters.

Over 250 missiles have landed on different parts of Israel including Naharya, Acca, Haifa, Beith Takfah, West Galilee, Krayot, HaSharon, Herzilya, Tel Aviv and the port of Ashdod, bordering Gaza, which is 150 kilometers away from Tel Aviv.

It speaks much about the encroachment of the so-called “Israeli depth” that today lies bare with Hamas in the south and Hezbollah in the north.

This is being described as “unprecedented” in a wide set of attacks covering at least half of Israel and is trending on the social media with its continual updates.

It began on early Sunday morning, after Israeli warplanes bombed the southern district of Beirut leading to many deaths and injuries.

The rockets on northern Israel that included military bases near Tel Aviv had been climbing from 150 missiles, some of who are ballistic to 170 with the latest figure standing at 200 and 250 and set to increase.

Damages and fires is being reported in the Israeli media with at least 10 people being injured but this is being described as the “war of missiles.”

With these projectiles landing on Israel daily – they increased in intensity when Israeli decided to stage its air and land war on Lebanon last September with the killing of Hezbollah’s Chief Hassan Nasrallah, the escalation on the Jewish state have continued daily.

The only people that seems to be affected by this are civilians. Whilst Israel’s war on Lebanon have displaced 1.4 million people in the south of the country, hundreds of thousands of Israelis have also been displaced from their homes and living in sheltered accommodation.

But apart from that up to two million Israelis in central Israel and the Tel Aviv conurbation have been “running up-and-down” between underground shelters.

Today sirens dominate the Israeli scene, going on and off on all hours of the day, at night, early mornings, when people are asleep and during the day.

The rockets, missiles, sirens have made life so unbearable that life has changed dramatically with hundreds thousands already left the country and many more thousands are thinking of actively getting out.

Today, the atmosphere in Israel – never been experienced before and judged from the siren blasts at 401 sound alerts in 11 regions – is tense and downright frightful, a bit like Gaza or the southern district of Beirut. Its no longer the place its original founders intended it to be.

The new message is “you can’t enjoy yoursleves while living on the lands of another people; all must suffer the consequences.  Israelis are realizing that. Their way out is through the congested Ben Gurion Airport which is topsy-turvy shutdown due to the daily missiles and drones.

Israeli Settlers, Army Besiege Qusra Families For 21 Days

Three Palestinian families remain under siege in Qusra as Israeli occupation forces and settlers intensify pressure to force them from their land.

Twenty Days under Siege in Qusra

Israeli occupation forces and illegal Israeli Jewish settlers have maintained a siege on three Palestinian homes in the Ras al-Ain area of Qusra, south of Nablus, for 20 consecutive days, Quds News Network and local sources reported on Friday.

Residents say the operation is intended to force the three families from their homes and ultimately seize their land.

Israeli occupation forces have intensified their presence around Jabal Ras al-Ain, restricting the families’ movement and their ability to obtain basic daily necessities.

Soldiers reportedly erected a military tent directly in front of the home of Palestinian resident Loai Abu Ridi and installed iron gates at entrances to the area, further restricting access.

Local residents warned that the prolonged siege increasingly threatens the ability of the three families to remain in their homes.

At the same time, illegal Israeli settlers, operating under the protection of occupation forces, installed new mobile homes at the eastern entrance to Qusra.

Residents said the move was intended to expand settlement outposts and consolidate control over additional Palestinian land.

Despite the pressure, the families and other residents of Qusra said they would remain on their land and rejected attempts to force them from the area.

Settler Attacks amid Widespread Raids

The siege in Qusra came amid widespread Israeli military raids and settler attacks across the occupied West Bank overnight Thursday and early Friday.

In Beita, south of Nablus, armed settlers assaulted Palestinian resident Issa Abdullah Hamayel and his wife in the Ain Umm al-Jarba area before forcing the couple to leave their land at gunpoint.

The Palestinian Red Crescent separately treated a Palestinian who was injured after being assaulted by Israeli forces in Tell, west of Nablus.

Israeli troops also stormed Beit Iba, Madama and Awarta, raiding homes and firing tear gas. A settler vehicle entered residential neighborhoods in Awarta during the military incursion.

In Jenin, Israeli occupation forces arrested Abdul Razzaq Abed, Adnan Abed and Mahmoud Abed after raiding their homes in Kafr Dan.

Troops also raided housing used by Palestinians displaced from the Jenin refugee camp near the Arab American University.

According to local reports, Israeli occupation forces detained relatives of wanted Palestinian Qais al-Bitawi, including a woman, in an attempt to pressure him to surrender.

Additional Israeli raids were reported in Tammun, south of Tubas, and Azzun, east of Qalqilya.

In Hebron (Al-Khalil), military vehicles entered the Al-Murabba’a area and southern parts of the city, where soldiers raided and searched Palestinian homes. Illegal settlers also gathered near Palestinian homes in the Al-Dawarah area of Sa’ir, north of Hebron.

Israeli Forces Remain inside Qalandiya Institute

In occupied Jerusalem, Israeli occupation forces maintained military control of the Qalandiya Vocational Institute for a fourth consecutive day on Friday.

Israeli military vehicles continued patrolling the surrounding area after occupation forces seized the UNRWA facility earlier this week, expelled its staff and raised an Israeli flag over the compound.

The institute, established in 1952, was the first UNRWA vocational training center in Palestine and has provided vocational education to generations of Palestinian refugees.

Israeli occupation forces also stormed Airport Street near the Qalandiya refugee camp on Friday, firing volleys of tear gas.

A Palestinian young man was detained during the raid before Israeli troops withdrew toward nearby military checkpoints. Palestine Chronicle
