Israeli Strike in Lebanon Kills 12 People From a Single Family, Including 6 Children

(September 9, 2026)

KFAR REMMAN, Lebanon—“They are killing children. That’s what they’re doing,” Baker Malak said, pointing to the tiny coffins being carried through the streets of the town of Kfar Remman in southern Lebanon on Tuesday. He walked alongside hundreds of mourners in a funeral procession to bury 12 members of a single family, half of them children, killed in an Israeli airstrike on their home a day earlier.

Nearby, mourners carried the coffin of 18-year-old paramedic Ali Shahrour, killed in a separate strike on the town the same day. The procession wound through streets scarred by months of bombardment as an Israeli drone buzzed incessantly overhead

The newspaper says, „Western states should take a common stand on banning exports from settlements they deem illegal.should unite to suspend the bloc‘s association agreement with Israel.“

Israel is a rogue nation. It should be removed from the United Nations

(October 15, 2024)

Over the past year, Israel has launched attacks on multiple countries and occupied territories: the Gaza Strip, the West Bank, Lebanon, Syria, Yemen and Iran.

Yet countries and territories aside, Israel has also targeted one specific organization with a series of unprecedented rhetorical and violent attacks.

Yes, the United Nations. We have all witnessed Israel, in effect, declare war on the UN.

Deutschland muss Aussetzung des EU-Israel-Abkommens zustimmen

(May 8, 2026)

„Die Aussetzung des EU-Israel Assoziierungsabkommens, gegen dessen Menschenrechtsklausel die israelische Regierung permanent verstößt, ist eine juristische und moralische Verpflichtung. Außenminister Wadephul hat die Wahl, Menschenrechte zum Eckpfeiler europäischer Israel-Politik zu machen – oder mit Doppelstandards weiter die EU zu spalten und internationales Recht auszuhöhlen,“ sagt Julia Duchrow, Generalsekretärin von Amnesty International in Deutschland.

„Deutschland sollte nicht länger dazu beitragen, dass Israels Gräueltaten folgenlos bleiben. Stattdessen sollte sich Außenminister Wadephul der Mehrheit der EU-Staaten anschließen und die überfälligen Schritte mittragen: die Aussetzung des Abkommens, ein Verbot des Handels mit illegalen Siedlungen sowie ein Ende sämtlicher Waffenlieferungen nach Israel“, sagt Philipp Frisch, Direktor von Human Rights Watch Deutschland.

Blast kills 2 in southern Lebanon‘s Mayfadoun amid ongoing Israel attacks: News agency

At least two people were killed on Wednesday when the town of Mayfadoun was rocked by an explosion amid ongoing Israeli attacks in southern Lebanon that have included airstrikes, artillery barrages and ground incursions.

Lebanon’s official National News Agency (NNA) attributed the explosion to a “suspicious object” left behind from a previous Israeli attack.

NNA also reported that a fire had broken out in the nearby town of Mansouri after an Israeli drone dropped explosive ordnance in the area.

EU faces criticism for secret police data talks with Israel: Report

(August 15, 2026)

The European Commission has been negotiating a secret agreement to share sensitive personal data with Israel’s police service, despite internal legal warnings that the deal could violate international law and put Palestinians at risk, according to a new report by civil rights group Statewatch published by Novara Media, Anadolu reports.

The draft agreement, originally negotiated with the European police agency Europol, would allow the exchange of biometric data, genetic information, location data, political views, and personal details.

Critical research indicates the deal has progressed despite a 2022 ruling by the Council of the EU’s Legal Service which deemed the proposal legally untenable.

EU Moves to Share Data With Israel That ‘Could Be Used to Kill Palestinians’

(August 4, 2026)

Under the plans, the bloc’s law enforcement agency, Europol, would exchange sensitive personal information about Palestinians with Israel’s police force, which is headquartered in the illegally occupied West Bank.

There is also concern the deal could harm members of the Palestinian diaspora, with a risk that activists in Europe could be targeted.

The data would include names, identification numbers, locations, genetic and biometric information and details about people’s political views, beliefs and personal lives.

Lebanese officials ‘have lost all leverage’ after putting ‘all their eggs in the US-Israeli basket’

The Lebanese government has been left at the “mercy” of the US and Israel after signing on to the Washington-brokered framework agreement, argues Ziad Abu Rish, an associate professor of Middle Eastern Studies at Bard College in the US state of New York.

He noted that Zawthar al-Gharbiya remains the only village Israeli forces have withdrawn from under the framework agreement and Israel has since publicly declared it is no longer interested in creating additional withdrawal zones.

Deadly dawn in south Lebanon: 11 killed in Israeli strikes on Ansar and Deir el-Zahrani

Since 3:30 a.m., southern Lebanon has woken up to one of the deadliest days since the large-scale fighting ended last June.

Inside a house in Ansar, two families who had been displaced from their areas during the previous war were seeking shelter in what they hoped would be a safer location.

The strike killed seven people, including children and two women, and wounded others, turning their displacement from war into death in a place of refuge.

The strike on Ansar was not the only attack.

Reopening Strait of Hormuz is a humanitarian imperative

It is worth recalling that the conflict did not begin over disputes about the Strait of Hormuz. As recently as February 28, commercial ships transited the waterway without restriction.

(…)

With the US maintaining the naval blockade during the ceasefire period, Iran responded by stopping and, in several cases, attacking vessels attempting to cross the Strait without its approval. Insurance rates spiked, shipping lines rerouted around the Cape of Good Hope, and transit times increased by up to three weeks.

Wars of this nature benefit no party in the long term, and they rarely reach a logical conclusion. Their primary victims are innocent civilians who have no role in the conflict. Many civilians in Iran and Lebanon have lost their lives directly to strikes.

Exclusive: EU Commission still seeking controversial police agreement with Israel, despite warnings

(July 30, 2026)

Documents obtained by Statewatch through transparency requests show that Europol nevertheless hosted Israeli delegations—including representatives of the Israeli National Police—on at least four occasions between August 2024 and March 2026. The meetings, involving several departments within the agency, were facilitated by Israel’s liaison officer at Europol and culminated in a visit by Israel’s ambassador to the Netherlands to the agency’s headquarters in March 2026.

Iran’s leaders show a united front over the war but are divided over what the goal is

On one side, the ultra-hardliners who oppose any negotiations with the United States are pressing for total victory in the war. Known as the “Paydari” movement – Persian for “stability” – they are hard-core ideologues who want to enforce the Islamic Republic’s control over society.

On the other, those who support President Masoud Pezeshkian and powerful parliament speaker Mohammad Bagher Qalibaf — who doubles as Iran’s chief negotiator — see military pressure as a way to win a negotiated deal with the United States. This camp is also spurred by concern over the economic toll Iran is suffering from the war and the need to adapt to social change in the country.

Israel Says It Killed Several Hezbollah Members on Key Lebanon Hilltop

A cease-fire between Israel and Hezbollah has barely held in recent weeks, just as Israel and Lebanon have worked to implement a separate, U.S.-brokered agreement to end months of fighting. That deal calls for Israel to gradually withdraw from territory in southern Lebanon.

Lebanese who fled the Israeli invasion visit to see what‘s left

Hamadi says the Basma family, who lived just across a lane from them in a neighborhood called the Nuns‘ Quarter, was killed in an airstrike in March — the parents along with all four of their children. The impact collapsed the house on top of them and two of the children — ages around 8 and 11 — are still under the rubble, she says.

„Now when I look at the neighborhood they are the only ones I can think about,“ she says.

She says in a quiet area full of older people, the family‘s four children brought life to the neighborhood. „They were the ones who made all the noise and activity,“ she says.

Hammadi says she used to drink coffee with the mother, who was in her late 30s. She would talk about waiting for her children to grow up.

„They were wonderful people,“ she says. „Now there‘s no one left from the family.“

Iran-Krieg: Auch während Kriegs Rüstungsexporte nach Israel genehmigt

(April 16, 2026)

Die Bundesregierung hat auch in den ersten Wochen des Iran-Kriegs Rüstungsexporte nach Israel genehmigt – allerdings in verhältnismäßig geringem Umfang. Vom 28. Februar, dem Tag des Angriffs israelischer und US-amerikanischer Streitkräfte auf den Iran, bis zum 27. März gab die schwarz-rote Regierung grünes Licht für Ausfuhren im Wert von 6,6 Millionen Euro, wie aus Antworten des Bundeswirtschaftsministeriums auf mehrere Anfragen des Linken-Abgeordneten Ulrich Thoden hervorgeht, die der Deutschen Presse-Agentur vorliegen.

Nach rund drei Monaten hebt die Bundesregierung die Einschränkung von Waffenexporten nach Israel wieder auf. Ab dem 24. November sollen sämtliche Rüstungsexporte nach Israel wieder möglich sein, sagte ein Regierungssprecher am Montag in Berlin. Der wichtigste Grund für die Entscheidung sei, dass der am 10. Oktober in Kraft getretene Waffenstillstand in Gaza weiterhin halte.
