HUGE Legal Victory – HFDF Wins Appeal in Ninth Circuit-By HFDF Team-June 7, 2024    

Health Freedom Defense Fund (HFDF), California Educators for Medical Freedom, and individual plaintiffs have won their appeal in the Ninth Circuit on  LAUSD’s Employee Covid Vaccination Mandate.Health Freedom Defense Fund et. al, led by the exceptional legal team of John Howard and Scott Street at JW Howard Attorneys, have won a significant victory in the Ninth Circuit, which reversed dismissal of their lawsuit challenging the Los Angeles Unified School District’s (“LAUSD”) mandatory vaccination policy for all employees.Reversing the decision of the Central District of California in Los Angeles, the Ninth Circuit majority held that, first, the case was not mooted by LAUSD’s rescission of the mandate after oral argument last September, 2023. The majority called out LAUSD’s gamesmanship for what it was – a bald-faced attempt at avoiding an adverse ruling by trying to create an issue of mootness.Unfortunately for LAUSD, they had already done this once in the trial court. Applying the voluntary cessation doctrine, the majority doubted LAUSD’s sincerity in rescinding the mandate immediately after an unfavorable oral argument in September of last year.On the merits, the majority ruled that the district court had misapplied the Supreme Court’s 1905 decision in Jacobson v. Massachusetts when it dismissed LAUSD’s lawsuit on grounds that the mandate was rationally related to a legitimate state interest. In Jacobson, the Supreme Court upheld the constitutionality of a smallpox vaccination mandate because it related to “preventing the spread” of smallpox.The majority, however, noted that HFDF had alleged in the lawsuit that the COVID jabs are not “traditional” vaccines because they do not prevent the spread of COVID-19 but only purport to mitigate COVID symptoms in the recipient. This, HFDF had alleged in its complaint, makes the COVID jab a medical treatment, not a vaccine.The court recognized that mitigating symptoms rather than preventing the spread of disease “distinguishes Jacobson, thus presenting a different government interest.” Based on this reasoning, the majority disapproved the trial court’s contention that, even if the jabs do not prevent the spread, “Jacobson still dictates that the vaccine mandate is subject to, and survives, the rational basis test.”The court held that “[t]his misapplies Jacobson,” which “did not involve a claim in which the compelled vaccine was ‘designed to reduce symptoms in the infected vaccine recipient rather than to prevent transmission and infection.”’ Jacobson does not, the majority concluded, extend to “forced medical treatment” for the benefit of the recipient.The court declined to give any deference to pronouncements by the CDC that the “COVID-19 vaccines are safe and effective.” As the court asked rhetorically, “safe and effective” for what? The majority pointed to HFDF’s allegation that CDC had changed the definition of “vaccine” in September 2021, striking the word “immunity” from that definition. The court also noted HFDF’s citations to CDC statements that the vaccines do not prevent transmission, and that natural immunity is superior to the vaccines.In a separate concurrence, Judge Collins wrote that the district court “further erred by failing to realize that [HFDF’s] allegations directly implicate a distinct and more recent line of Supreme Court authority” for the proposition that “a competent person has a constitutionally protected liberty interest in refusing unwanted medical treatment[.]” Citing the Supreme Court’s decision in Washington v. Glucksberg, Judge Collins noted that the right to refuse unwanted medical treatment is “entirely consistent with this Nation’s history and constitutional traditions,” and that HFDF’s allegations in this case “are sufficient to invoke that fundamental right.”HFDF president, Leslie Manookian stated,“The Ninth Circuit ruling today demonstrates that the court saw through LAUSD’s monkey business, and in so doing, it made clear that American’s cherished rights to self determination, including the sacred right of bodily autonomy in matters of health, are not negotiable. This is a great  triumph for the truth, decency, and what is right.”

Breaking! COVID mRNA Jabs Are NOT Vaccines, Court Rules-by Jamie White-June 8th 2024, 12:30 pm

9th Circuit Court of Appeals rules mRNA COVID-19 injections do not qualify as vaccines under traditional medical definitions.Ruling could mean pharmaceutical companies are now vulnerable to legal actions since vaccines are granted liability protections.The 9th Circuit Court of Appeals has ruled that the COVID-19 mRNA jabs do not qualify as vaccines, a decision that could expose pharmaceutical companies who manufactured them to future liability lawsuits.The ruling centers on a lawsuit brought by Health Freedom Defense Fund (HFDF) and other plaintiffs against the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) over its mandate that all employees must be fully vaccinated against COVID-19 by a specified deadline.Circuit Judge R. Nelson wrote Friday that the mRNA shots, marketed as vaccines, do not effectively prevent the transmission of COVID-19 but only reduce symptoms in those who contract the virus, which do not make them traditional vaccines outlined in the 1905 Jacobson v. Massachusetts case.The 9th Circuit Just Stripped mRNA Shots of Legal Liability Protection-The 9th Circuit said it’s not a vaccine if the claim isn’t PREVENT THE SPREAD.COVID shots were claimed to “reduce symptoms” and prevent hospitalization… Those claims make it a TREATMENT. pic.twitter.com/HnDuIAwbV9— DR JANE RUBY (@RealDrJaneRuby) June 8, 2024-Jacobson v. Massachusetts upheld the state’s right to enforce smallpox vaccinations due to their proven effectiveness in preventing disease spread, but the COVID-19 shots do not offer the same benefits.URGENT! Keep Alex Jones in the fight against the NWO! Please pray & contribute at DefendJones.com today!Addressing the merits, the panel held that the district court misapplied the Supreme Court’s decision in Jacobson v. Massachusetts, 197 U.S. 11 (1905), in concluding that the Policy survived rational basis review. Jacobson held that mandatory vaccinations were rationally related to preventing the spread of smallpox.Here, however, plaintiffs allege that the vaccine does not effectively prevent spread but only mitigates symptoms for the recipient and therefore is akin to a medical treatment, not a ‘traditional’ vaccine. Taking plaintiffs’ allegations as true at this stage of litigation, plaintiffs plausibly alleged that the COVID-19 vaccine does not effectively ‘prevent the spread’ of COVID-19. Thus, Jacobson does not apply.The ruling reverses a lower court’s dismissal of the case against the LAUSD’s vaccine mandate.“Reversing the decision of the Central District of California in Los Angeles, the Ninth Circuit majority held that, first, the case was not mooted by LAUSD’s rescission of the mandate after oral argument last September, 2023,” HFDF said in a statement. “The majority called out LAUSD’s gamesmanship for what it was – a bald-faced attempt at avoiding an adverse ruling by trying to create an issue of mootness.”HFDF president Leslie Manookian celebrated the ruling as a victory for bodily autonomy.“The Ninth Circuit ruling today demonstrates that the court saw through LAUSD’s monkey business, and in so doing, it made clear that American’s cherished rights to self determination, including the sacred right of bodily autonomy in matters of health, are not negotiable. This is a great  triumph for the truth, decency, and what is right.”Notably, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) changed the definition of “vaccine” in 2021 to include the experimental mRNA jabs.Vaccines used to be defined as “a product that stimulates a person’s immune system to produce immunity to a specific disease.”But the CDC modified it to “a preparation that is used to stimulate the body’s immune response against diseases.”In other words, the mRNA injection did not stimulate immunity to COVID-19, so the CDC had to change the definition of vaccine instead.Since the court ruled the COVID-19 jabs don’t fit the traditional definition of a vaccine, it raises questions about whether pharmaceutical companies who manufactured the jabs are now vulnerable to legal action.“The 9th Circuit Just Stripped mRNA Shots of Legal Liability Protection,” Dr. Jane Ruby wrote on X. “The 9th Circuit said it’s not a vaccine if the claim isn’t PREVENT THE SPREAD. COVID shots were claimed to ‘reduce symptoms’ and prevent hospitalization…Those claims make it a TREATMENT.”

CDC Quietly Changes Definition Of ‘Vaccine’ As COVID-19 Continues To Infect Vaccinated People-The Center for Disease Control has a new definition of "vaccine" on their website as COVID-19 continues to infect the vaccinated.by Archive-September 8, 2021
in Coronavirus, News, Politics-BREAKING: CDC Schedules ‘Emergency Meeting’ On Heart Inflammation Cases In COVID Vaccine Recipients-Last Updated on September 8, 2021

On August 26, 2021, the definition of “vaccine” on the CDC website was “a product that stimulates a person’s immune system to produce immunity to a specific disease.” The definition of “vaccination” at that time was “the act of introducing a vaccine into the body to produce immunity to a specific disease.”As of yesterday, the new definition of “vaccine” on the CDC website is “a preparation that is used to stimulate the body’s immune response against diseases.” The definition of “vaccination” describes “the act of introducing a vaccine into the body to produce protection from a specific disease.”Joe Biden is set to present his six-pronged “strategy” to combat the spread of the Delta variant and increase U.S. COVID-19 vaccination rates on Thursday.The CDC “vaccine” and “vaccination” definition changes come as vaccinated people continue to be infected and spread coronavirus. As was previously reported by National File, a new study has revealed that people who are “fully vaccinated” carry a staggering 251 times the normal viral load of COVID-19. Experts are concerned that this may pose a risk to those who have not received the COVID-19 vaccine, and it also seems likely these increased viral loads could result in more so-called “breakthrough” cases of those who have been vaccinated contracting COVID-19. A study by the Oxford University Clinical Research Group published on August 10th in The Lancet found that fully vaccinated people carry 251 times the viral load of coronavirus as compared to those who have not received one of the controversial vaccines. “Viral loads of breakthrough Delta variant infection cases were 251 times higher than those of cases infected with old strains detected between March-April 2020,” reads the study. The vaccines seem to allow vaccinated individuals to carry unusually high viral loads without becoming sick, transforming them into super spreaders who experience symptoms later on, as reported by Daily Veracity…” (READ MORE: Jen Psaki Calls Coronavirus The ‘ Global Plandemic’)-The definition change also comes a few weeks after the FDA seemingly approved the Pfizer vaccine just days after CDC Rochelle Walensky admitted that the effectiveness of the COVID-19 vaccines are “waning,” confirming earlier reports by National File. “We are seeing concerning evidence of waning vaccine effectiveness over time and against the Delta variant,” Rochelle Walensky said during a White House Press Briefing. “Reports from our international colleagues, including Israel, suggest increased risk of severe disease amongst those vaccinated early.” (READ MORE: NIH Began Study on Vaccine Safety For Pregnant Women AFTER Many Moms Had Taken The Jab)

AI brothel opens in Berlin-By Anna Akopyan • Published: 09 Jun 2024 • 7:25

With the technological advances of our time, customer demands continue evolving and sparking innovation: in adult entertainment, the world´s transformation is now apparent with Berlin´s latest launch of the AI brothel. With prostitution legalised in Germany, the sector continues evolving; this June, people will be able to book an hour with an AI sex doll in a one-of-a-kind brothel in Berlin. Customers will have both verbal and physical access to the AI dolls.The founder of Cybrothel, Philipp Fussengger, shared some of the causes for this development; “Many people feel more comfortable sharing private matters with a machine because it doesn´t judge.” Although the AI dolls are simply not capable of judging, some of the public is concerned about data protection and ethics.“It’s crucial that we understand what kinds of data sets are used to train sex chatbots, otherwise we risk replicating ideas about sex that demean female pleasure and ignore sex that exists outside of heterosexual intercourse,” argued Dr Kerry Mclenerey, senior researcher at the Leverhulme Centre for the Future Intelligence at the University of Cambridge.With the reduction of human-to-human contact, many are concerned about the growth in altered perceptions of consent and unrealistic expectations of sexual intercourse and human relationships. This may lead to increased isolation and addiction due to excessive use.Moreover, the subject of health and safety has been raised, as the public questions the maintenance and proper cleaning of the AI dolls.Despite the rising concerns, the brothel is expecting a large number of customers. SplitMetrics (AI-driven app store) recently shared that more than 225 million downloads have been made of AI companion apps on the Google Play Store.The CEO of the company, Thomas Kriebernegg, highlighted that a surge in the market is now expected, as app developers and businesses will continue capitalizing on the use of AI, applying it to every sector of our society, including what was once, despite money, a human contact.

Macron dissolves French parliament, calls snap elections after far-right wins EU vote-French far-right parties win 40% of the European parliament vote, beating President Macron’s centrist alliance-By AFP Today, 11:48 pm-JUN 9,24

PARIS, France — French President Emmanuel Macron announced Sunday he was dissolving parliament and calling snap legislative elections after the far-right trounced his centrist alliance in EU polls.The first round of elections for the lower house National Assembly will take place on June 30, with the second round on July 7, Macron announced in an address to the nation.The outcome of the EU elections, he acknowledged, is “not a good result for parties who defend Europe.” Macron noted that, including the top-scoring National Rally (RN), far-right parties in France managed to take almost 40 percent of the vote in the EU elections in France.“Far-right parties… are progressing everywhere in the continent. It is a situation to which I cannot resign myself,” he said.“I decided to give you the choice… Therefore I will dissolve the National Assembly tonight.“This decision is serious and heavy but it is an act of confidence. Confidence in you, dear compatriots, and in the capacity of the French people to make the best choice for itself and future generations.”The RN’s list, led by Jordan Bardella, 28, gained between 32.3 and 33 percent of the vote compared with 14.8 to 15.2 percent for Macron’s alliance led by his Renaissance party, according to projections from several polling firms.Macron warned Thursday that the EU risked being “blocked” by a big far-right presence in the European Parliament after this week’s elections.The election results also mark a critical moment as eyes turn to France’s 2027 presidential vote where Macron cannot stand again and RN figurehead Marine Le Pen fancies she has her best-ever chance of winning the Elysee Palace.

EU projection shows far-right parties making big gains in European elections-Centrist groups expected to keep majority in European Parliament as results trickle in, with Greens predicted to lose around 20 seats and fall to sixth position in legislature-By LORNE COOK, Raf Casert and Samuel Petrequin Today, 11:02 pm-JUN 9,24

BRUSSELS (AP) — Far-right parties have made big gains at the European Parliament as the Greens took a major hit at Sunday’s European elections, according to a first projection provided by the European Union.The estimates aggregated by the EU parliament are based on exit polls or other survey data, along with projections that may include some partial election returns.The two mainstream and pro-European groups, the Christian Democrats and the Socialists, remained the dominant forces. The Greens were expected to lose about 20 seats and fall back to sixth position in the legislature.The party of Marine Le Pen dominated the polls in France, with her National Rally party standing at just over 30%, or about twice as much as President Emmanuel Macron’s pro-European centrist party that is projected to reach around 15% — leading Macron to call a snap parliamentary election in France.In Germany, the most populous nation in the 27-member bloc, projections indicated that the extreme right Alternative for Germany, or AfD, overcame a string of scandals involving its top candidate to rise to 16.5% from 11% in 2019 and become the second biggest party. In comparison, the combined result for the three parties in the German governing coalition barely topped 30%.“After all the prophecies of doom, after the barrage of the last few weeks, we are the second strongest force,” said AfD leader Alice Weidel.The European Union, which has its roots in the defeat of Nazi Germany and fascist Italy, kept the hard right to the fringes of politics for decades. With its strong showing in these elections, the far right could now become a major player in policies ranging from migration to security and climate.In sharp contrast, the Greens were predicted to fall from 20% to 12% in Germany, a traditional bulwark for environmentalists, with more losses expected in France and several other EU nations. Their defeat could well have an impact on the EU’s overall climate change policies, still the most progressive across the globe.The center-right Christian Democratic bloc of EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, which already weakened its green credentials ahead of the polls, dominated in Germany with almost 30%, beating the Social Democratic party of Chancellor Olaf Scholz, which fell to 14%, even behind the AfD.“What you have already set as a trend is all the better – strongest force, stable, in difficult times and by a distance,” von der Leyen told her German supporters by video link from Brussels.As well as France, the hard right, which focused its campaign on migration and crime, was expected to make significant gains in Italy, where Premier Giorgia Meloni was tipped to consolidate her power.Voting will continue in Italy until late in the evening and many of the 27 member states have not yet released any projections. Nonetheless, data already released confirmed earlier predictions: the EU’s massive exercise in democracy is expected to shift the bloc to the right and redirect its future.With the center losing seats to hard right parties, the EU could find it harder to pass legislation and decision-making could at times be paralyzed in the world’s biggest trading bloc. “I do hope that we will manage to avoid a shift to the right and that Europe will somehow remain united,” voter Laura Simon said in Berlin.EU lawmakers, who serve a five-year term in the 720-seat Parliament, have a say in issues from financial rules to climate and agriculture policy. They approve the EU budget, which bankrolls priorities including infrastructure projects, farm subsidies and aid delivered to Ukraine. And they hold a veto over appointments to the powerful EU commission.These elections come at a testing time for voter confidence in a bloc of some 450 million people. Over the last five years, the EU has been shaken by the coronavirus pandemic, an economic slump and an energy crisis fueled by the biggest land conflict in Europe since the Second World War. But political campaigning often focuses on issues of concern in individual countries rather than on broader European interests.Sunday’s voting marathon winds up a four-day election cycle that began in the Netherlands on Thursday.An unofficial exit poll there suggested that the anti-migrant hard right party of Geert Wilders would make important gains, even though a coalition of pro-European parties has probably pushed it into second place.Casting his vote in the Flanders region, Belgian Prime Minister Alexander De Croo, whose country holds the EU’s rotating presidency until the end of the month, warned that Europe was “more under pressure than ever.”Since the last EU election in 2019, populist or far-right parties now lead governments in three nations — Hungary, Slovakia and Italy — and are part of ruling coalitions in others including Sweden, Finland and, soon, the Netherlands.Polls give the populists an advantage in France, Belgium, Austria and Italy.“Right is good,” Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, who leads a stridently nationalist and anti-migrant government, told reporters after casting his ballot. “To go right is always good. Go right!”After the election comes a period of horse-trading, as political parties reconsider in their places in the continent-wide alliances that run the European legislature.The biggest political group — the center-right European People’s Party (EPP) — has moved further right during the present elections on issues like security, climate and migration.Among the most watched questions is whether the Brothers of Italy — the governing party of populist Meloni, which has neo-fascist roots — stays in the more hard-line European Conservatives and Reformists group or becomes part of a new hard right group that could form the wake of the elections. Meloni also has the option to work with the EPP.A more worrying scenario for pro-European parties would be if the ECR joins forces with Le Pen’s Identity and Democracy group to consolidate hard-right influence.The second biggest group — the center-left Socialists and Democrats — and the Greens refuse to align themselves with the ECR.Questions also remain over what group Orbán’s ruling Fidesz party might join. It was previously part of the EPP but was forced out in 2021 due to conflicts over its interests and values. The far-right Alternative for Germany was kicked out of the Identity and Democracy group following a string of scandals surrounding its two lead candidates for the European Parliament.The election also ushers in a period of uncertainty as new leaders are chosen for the European institutions. While lawmakers are jostling over places in alliances, governments will be competing to secure top EU jobs for their national officials.Chief among them is the presidency of the powerful executive branch, the European Commission, which proposes laws and watches to ensure they are respected. The commission also controls the EU’s purse strings, manages trade and is Europe’s competition watchdog.Other plum posts are those of European Council president, who chairs summits of presidents and prime ministers, and EU foreign policy chief, the bloc’s top diplomat.

Far-right, nationalist parties gain strong support in European Parliament election-Katherine Tangalakis-Lippert-Sun, June 9, 2024 at 6:08 p.m. EDT

Voters across the European Union are voting in a new European Parliament in elections this week.Early results reveal a surge in support for far-right parties.Nationalist and populist figures now have an advantage in France, Italy, Austria, and Belgium.Early results for the European Union's parliamentary elections reveal a surge in support for far-right and nationalist parties, according to multiple reports.The EU elections, held in 27 countries from June 6-9, showed especially strong support for anti-immigrant, nationalist figures in France and Germany — two of the continent's largest powers often regarded as drivers behind the experiment of pooled sovereignty, The New York Times reported.French President Emmanuel Macron on Sunday announced he would dissolve France's National Assembly (the lower house of the French Parliament) after the country's far-right party, the National Rally, led by French lawyer Marine Le Pen, handily defeated Macron's Renew Party, per The Wall Street Journal.The dissolution of the assembly is a high-stakes gamble that will result in new elections being held between June 30 and July 7. It could result in Macron's Renew Party losing additional seats to rivals in the anti-immigrant National Rally."This is a serious, weighty decision, but above all it's an act of trust," The Journal reported Macron said of his decision. "Confidence in you, confidence in the ability of the French people to make the right choice for themselves and for future generations."The Associated Press reported that Alternative for Germany (AfD) — considered a "suspected" extremist group by German authorities — also surged in support. AfD overtook Germany's Social Democratic party, which has been the leading party in the country since Olaf Scholz was elected chancellor in 2021.According to AP, AfD received 16.5% of the vote, up from 11% in 2019, compared to a combined 30% for the three parties in Germany's governing coalition.Polls also show populist politicians have an advantage in Italy, Belgium, and Austria, the outlet reported.AP noted that since the 2019 European Parliament elections, far-right politicians have led in Hungary, Italy, and Slovakia and are part of ruling coalitions in Sweden, Finland, and the Netherlands. The parties have gained support in large part due to anti-immigration and anti-LGBTQ+ sentiment, as well as policies focused on nationalism and identity, The Times reported.If early results are confirmed, this year's elections would strengthen the right's power across the European Union and offer a stunning rebuke to Europe's political establishment. Should more far-right parties gain power, it would become harder for the parliament to pass laws across the EU and likely impact negotiations between Ukraine and Russia, as much of the EU's far-right has a pro-Russia stance, pushing for a peace deal between the countries on Russia's terms, per The Times.Firmer figures from this year's elections are expected late Sunday night.Representatives for the European Parliament did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Business Insider.Read the original article on Business Insider

Polls open in 20 EU countries on final day of voting for European Parliament-Four-day election cycle winds up as citizen members of European Union bloc cast votes for 720 elected members; all eyes on possible gains by far-right parties-By LORNE COOK Today, 11:15 am-JUN 9,24

BRUSSELS (AP) — Polling stations opened across Europe on Sunday as voters from 20 countries cast ballots in elections that are expected to shift the European Union’s parliament to the right and could reshape the future direction of the world’s biggest trading bloc.War in Ukraine, the impact of climate policy on farmers, and migration are some of the issues weighing on voters’ minds from Portugal in the west to the alpine nation of Austria to Poland in the east and Cyprus in the Mediterranean as they cast ballots to elect 720 members of the European Parliament.Sunday’s voting marathon winds up a four-day election cycle that began in the Netherlands on Thursday. Official results of the polls, which are held every five years, cannot be published before the last polling stations in the 27 EU nations close – those in Italy at 11 p.m. (2100 GMT).Unofficial estimates are due to trickle in from 1615 GMT, but results will only become clear on Monday.An unofficial exit poll on Thursday suggested that Geert Wilders’ anti-migrant hard right party should make important gains in the Netherlands, even though a coalition of pro-European parties has probably pushed it into second place.Should that trend continue, lawmakers will find it harder to pass legislation and make decisions.Since the last EU election in 2019, populist or far-right parties now lead governments in three nations — Hungary, Slovakia and Italy — and are part of the ruling coalition in others, including Sweden, Finland and, soon, the Netherlands.Polls give the populists an advantage in France, Belgium, Austria and Italy.The elections come at a testing time for voter confidence in a bloc of some 450 million people. Over the last five years, the EU has been shaken by the coronavirus pandemic, an economic slump and an energy crisis fueled by the biggest land conflict in Europe since the Second World War.The polls also mark the beginning of a period of uncertainty for the Europeans and their international partners. Beyond the wrangling to form political groups and establish alliances inside parliament, governments will compete to secure top EU jobs for their national officials.Chief among them is the presidency of the powerful executive branch, the European Commission, which proposes laws and watches to ensure they are respected. The commission also controls the EU’s purse strings, manages trade and is Europe’s competition watchdog.Other plum posts are those of European Council president, who chairs summits of presidents and prime ministers, and EU foreign policy chief, the bloc’s top diplomat.EU lawmakers have a say on legislation ranging from financial rules to climate or agriculture policy. They also approve the EU budget, which apart from funding the bloc’s political priorities bankrolls things like infrastructure projects, farm subsidies or aid delivered to Ukraine.But despite their important role, political campaigning often focuses on issues of concern in individual countries rather than on broader European interests. Voters routinely use their ballots to protest the policies of their national governments.Surveys suggest that mainstream and pro-European parties will retain their majority in parliament, but that the hard right, including parties led by politicians like Wilders or France’s Marine Le Pen, will eat into their share of seats.The biggest political group – the center-right European People’s Party (EPP) – has already edged away from the middle ground, campaigning on traditional far-right issues like more security, tougher migration laws, and a focus on business over social welfare concerns.Much may depend on whether the Brothers of Italy — the governing party of populist far-right Prime Minister Georgia Meloni, which has neo-fascist roots — stays in the more hard-line European Conservatives and Reformists, or becomes part of a new hard right group that could be created in the wake of the elections. Meloni also has the further option to work with the EPP.The second-biggest group — the center-left Socialists and Democrats — and the Greens refuse to align themselves with the ECR. A more dire scenario for pro-European parties would be if the ECR joins forces with Le Pen’s Identity and Democracy to consolidate hard-right influence.Questions remain over what group Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán’s staunchly nationalist and anti-migrant Fidesz party might join. It was previously part of the EPP but was forced out in 2021 due to conflicts over its interests and values.The EPP has campaigned for Ursula von der Leyen to be granted a second term as commission president but nothing guarantees that she will be returned even if they win. National leaders will decide who is nominated, even though the parliament must approve any nominee.

WEEK OF DANIEL 9:27 WE KNOW ITS 7 YRS

The King of Jerusalem[1] was the supreme ruler of the Kingdom of Jerusalem, the Crusader state founded by Christian princes in 1099 when the First Crusade took the city.Godfrey of Bouillon, the first ruler of the Kingdom of Jerusalem, himself refused the title of king, and instead chose the title "Defender of the Holy Sepulchre". Thus, the title of king was only introduced for his successor, King Baldwin I in 1100. The city of Jerusalem was lost in 1187, but the Kingdom of Jerusalem survived (also known as the "Second Kingdom of Jerusalem"), moving its capital to Acre in 1191. The city of Jerusalem was re-captured in the Sixth Crusade, during 1229–39 and 1241–44. The Kingdom of Jerusalem was finally dissolved with the fall of Acre and the end of the Crusades in the Holy Land in 1291.After the Crusader States ceased to exist, the title of King of Jerusalem was claimed by a number of European noble houses descended from the kings of Cyprus or the kings of Naples. The (purely ceremonial) title of King of Jerusalem is currently used by Felipe VI of Spain. It was claimed by Otto von Habsburg as Habsburg pretender, and by the kings of Italy until 1946.

I saw Iran, Persia, Armenia, Azerbaijan, all of Georgia - Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, Israel, all of Asia Minor - full of blood. I saw blood all over these countries. And I saw fire; Nuclear weapons used in many of those countries. Smoke rising from everywhere. Sudden destruction – men destroying one another. I heard these words:"Israel, Oh Israel, the great judgment has come." The angel said, "The chosen, the church, the remnant, shall be purified. The Spirit of God shall prepare the children of God."I saw fires rising to heaven.The angel said: "This is the final judgment. My church shall be purified, protected and ready for the final day. Men will die from thirst. Water shall be scarce all over the Middle East. Rivers shall dry up, and men will fight for water in those countries."The angel showed me that the United Nations shall be broken in pieces because of the crisis in the Middle East. There shall be no more United Nations. The angel with the sickle shall reap the harvest.

Op-ed-Jubilant over the hostage rescue, Netanyahu knows more difficult times lie ahead-Daring Gaza op provided a welcome boost to national morale but is unlikely to mark a turning point, with the fate of the remaining captives in the balance and Hamas obdurate-By Amir Bar Shalom 10 June 2024, 1:28 am

The operation to rescue Noa Argamani, Shlomi Ziv, Almog Meir Jan and Andrey Kozlov from their captivity at the Nuseirat refugee camp in the central Gaza Strip was postponed four times late last week and into the weekend. The initial go-ahead was given on Thursday evening, but the special forces waited for intelligence and operational maturity – before finally, at 11 a.m. on Saturday, they were given the green light.For the third time since October 7, Israel’s security forces achieved an intelligence and operational success worthy of appreciation and praise. This had happened on October 28, 2023, with the rescue of Ori Megidish in the heart of Gaza Strip; on May 1, with the rescue of Louis Har and Fernando Marman from the Shaboura refugee camp in Rafah; and then, on Saturday, in Nuseirat.But as successful as this latest operation was, and as welcome the burst of joy and the importance to national morale, it is doubtful that it will serve as a turning point. It is likely, indeed, that Hamas has rushed to tighten security around the other hostages, and perhaps moved them to new hiding places.Every rescue operation needs to be planned to the smallest detail. In the case of Saturday’s, the planning spanned weeks – and, during that time, several acts of diversion were apparently taken.In recent weeks, military intelligence and Shin Bet provided accurate information about the whereabouts of the four hostages – including real-time movements – making it possible for the extraction teams to practice on an accurate model of the buildings where the hostages were held.A senior army source who was part of the planning told The Times of Israel, on condition of anonymity, that the Saturday operation was reminiscent in planning and execution of the legendary Entebbe Operation in 1976, in which the IDF rescued over 100 hostages kidnapped to Uganda.Palestinian casualties-Palestinians claim that the Israeli forces used a humanitarian aid truck carrying furniture to infiltrate the center of Nuseirat unnoticed, which the IDF has denied but which has ignited conspiracy theories in Gaza that Israel and the Arab countries behind the humanitarian aid efforts have joined forces in military action. View of the IDF’s helicopters taking off from Gaza with the hostages from nearby the US-built aid pier only fueled these conspiracy theories.Hamas was quick to embrace this narrative. However, in a statement, the terror organization refrained from mentioning the Arab states and accused only the United States of cooperating with Israel.Hamas was also quick to propagate information on social media, and subsequently in the international media, claiming there were more than 270 Palestinian fatalities, many of whom were children and women. While this number should be treated with great caution, it is clear that a military operation in the heart of Nuseirat’s overcrowded center would result in civilian deaths.Wary of the harsh international criticism, the IDF Spokesperson’s Unit briefed foreign media immediately after the operation was over, stressing the presence of Hamas operatives and hostages in the heart of the civilian population, as part of Hamas’s practice of using civilians as human shields.Once the rescue force was met with violent resistance when leaving the second building, where the three male hostages were held, it was IDF fire — both from the ground and from the air — that allowed the rescue team and the hostages to escape the area. This is when most of the civilians were injured. This is also when Yamam officer Chief Insp. Arnon Zmora was mortally wounded. He died from his wounds shortly after.Milking the moment-The rescue operation was not approved by the full war cabinet, but rather only by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Yoav Gallant.It is reasonable to assume that, considering that war cabinet minister Benny Gantz was about to quit the wartime government, Netanyahu was unwilling to share the details of the operation with him. For Netanyahu, this was a gamble: If the operation had failed, it would have been easier for Netanyahu to account for it and share the responsibility for its failure had Gantz been included.Hours after the operation was over, Gantz revealed that he had known about the operation ahead of time; the head of the Shin Bet, Ronen Bar, briefed him about it on Thursday night. Despite knowing he wouldn’t be able to announce his and his National Unity party’s withdrawal from the government immediately after such an operation, Gantz chose to schedule a press conference for Saturday evening, when his ultimatum to Netanyahu expired – so as to convey business as usual and not alert Hamas that something was afoot.In contrast, Netanyahu fully exploited the operation’s success for his public relations. While Gallant sufficed with a statement praising the security forces, Netanyahu arrived at Sheba Medical Center, took pictures with the families and the hostages, and rushed to make a statement to the press at the hospital (with no questions allowed, of course).It’s worth noting that to date, the prime minister has yet to personally speak to the families of Nadav Popplewell, Chaim Peri, Yoram Metzger and Amiram Cooper, four hostages who were declared dead just days earlier, to convey his condolences.The question now is how Saturday’s successful rescue will affect the negotiations to release the 120 hostages still held by Hamas in Gaza. Right now, these talks are on hold as all sides wait for Hamas’s response to the latest Israeli proposal for a deal, approved by the war cabinet and detailed by US President Joe Biden.Hamas swallowed the two previous Israeli rescue operations and continued the negotiations. But it is quite possible that Hamas, stung and with fewer hostages, will now harden its demands.Hamas’s leadership issued a relatively quick announcement after it recovered from the shock of the operation in Nuseirat: “We have a lot of hostages. The release of some of them after eight months will not change Israel’s strategic failure.”Israel would not have expected anything other than obduracy from Hamas, but the statement was a reality check — a reminder of the challenges that lie ahead.The IDF is set to complete its operation in Rafah in the next few weeks, and it is doubtful whether it will ultimately carry out a major operation in the two remaining refugee camps — central Gaza’s Nuseirat and Deir al-Balah.Israel went a long way in its latest proposal, which received American, Qatari and Egyptian backing, but it has not yet yielded the long-awaited breakthrough. And Gantz’s Sunday night departure from the government further reduces Netanyahu’s operating leeway vis-à-vis the far-right factions in his coalition.That might be why Netanyahu called on Gantz, however improbably, to stay in the government. Amid the jubilation of Saturday morning’s successful rescue, Netanyahu knows that more difficult times lie ahead.Translated and edited from the original Hebrew on Zman Yisrael.

‘Hero of Israel’: Thousands pay last respects to officer killed in hostage rescue op-Arnon Zmora’s widow eulogizes ‘a sweet man full of laughter, sensitivity and compassion’; in tearful tribute, uncle of rescued hostage says families have ‘unbreakable alliance’ By ToI Staff Today, 10:41 pm-JUN 9,24

Thousands of mourners, among them family members of hostages held in Gaza, flocked to Jerusalem on Sunday to attend the funeral of Arnon Zmora, the police counter-terror officer killed Saturday during an operation that rescued four captives from central Gaza.Zmora, an officer of the elite Yamam counter-terrorism unit, was shot and critically injured by Hamas terrorists guarding three of the four hostages. He succumbed to his wounds shortly upon arriving at a hospital in Israel.He was part of the mission to rescue Almog Meir Jan, Andrey Kozlov, Shlomi Ziv and Noa Argamani, which was subsequently renamed “Operation Arnon” in his honor.Even before the arrival of the funeral procession at Jerusalem’s Mount Herzl military cemetery, Israelis lined the street outside the Zmora family’s home in the nearby town of Mevasseret Zion, waving Israeli flags in tribute.Inside the cemetery, Zmora’s mother Ruti eulogized her son, whom she said was not only “your mother’s hero,” but also “an entire country’s hero.”“Your favorite movie as a child was ‘Robin Hood.’ In second grade, you dressed up as a paratrooper. You looked up to Yoni Netanyahu for Operation Entebbe,” Channel 12 news quoted Ruti as saying, referring to the IDF hero — brother of the current prime minister — killed during the 1976 mission that saved over 100 Israeli hostages kidnapped to Uganda.“My boy, full of joy, of life, with a kind gaze and a rolling laugh that remains in my heart,” she said. “An imaginative, creative child who knows that even if the road is difficult, the sky is the limit.“My beloved child,” she continued, “I am so happy that last Friday I was able to say to you: ‘Arnon, take care of yourself and your friends. I love you.’ You answered me: ‘Mom, I love you too.'”“I knew it was Russian roulette,” she said. “You sacrificed your life for the country.”The head of the Yamam counter-terror unit said of Zmora that he was “always first, and during the heroic operation he led, he acted with courage and was a model for his fighters.“His actions brought light to the people of Israel and unfortunately he paid for it with his life,” he added. “Instead of being part of the national jubilation, we are going into deep mourning.”The funeral was attended by Israel Police Commissioner Kobi Shabtai, who delivered a eulogy on behalf of the Israel Police.“Arnon, I knew you and heard a lot about you. You fought on October 7 in the kibbutzim surrounding Gaza, you participated in countless activities and operations that will forever be hidden from the public eye,” Shabtai said. “You always understood the mission that was before you, you strove for contact, you acted with the courage reserved for outstanding people, and I believe you deeply felt the magnitude of the hour.“Arnon, we agreed that we would parachute together at the end of my term,” said Shabtai, whose tenure will end on July 17. “Unfortunately, we didn’t have time to do it.”Among those paying tribute to Zmora was Aviram Meir, the uncle of Almog Meir Jan, one of the hostages rescued during Saturday’s daylight operation.Arnon “brought joy to the families, you brought joy to the people of Israel,” Aviram Meir said through tears.“I would like to address the Zmora family and tell you that the blood of your children is mixed with ours. This is an unbreakable alliance. I thank you from the bottom of my heart.”Arnon’s widow Michal Zmora was the last to speak and said she had chosen to do so intentionally.“I asked to speak last because the commanders were talking about how much of a hero you are… now everyone knows about your heroism,” she said. “More than everything, though, you were a sweet man, full of laughter, sensitivity and compassion. You have been my spouse for the last 12 years. For the last eight years, you have also been the perfect father.“It’s important that these things be said last, after the stories of heroism. That’s what will resonate from you.”Michal continued: “There is no other love like ours, there isn’t any. You don’t see that kind of love anymore, a love that involves choosing each other every morning. A love that involves dialogue and listening — with each passing day, we loved each other more.“We raised two wonderful children together, my love, whose worlds fell apart in an instant. I am enveloping them and protecting them. I know you know that, and I also know that you thought about us in the split second when you realized that death was coming.“In the end, the children and I will be fine,” she said through tears. “They will know how much of a hero their father was, how many lives he saved… but much more than that, they will remember how much fun they had with you. Riding bikes, playing the guitar, lighting a bonfire, eating ice cream, having fun together, and being a family.”Earlier on Sunday, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu eulogized Zmora at the outset of the weekly cabinet meeting.“The massive achievement yesterday caused the nation to stand up taller,” said Netanyahu, “and I must say, it caused Israel’s supporters around the world to stand taller as well.”“But it came with great pain, the fall of the hero of Israel, the IDF warrior, the late commander Arnon Zmora,” he continued.He related a story told by Amir Ofer, a commando who freed hostages from Entebbe Airport in 1976 under the command of Netanyahu’s brother Yoni, about meeting Zmora.After October 7, Zmora called Ofer to recount the battles he took part in against Hamas terrorists in Israeli towns and on roads near the border. “How did you succeed and we didn’t?” Zmora asked Ofer.“It took me a few hours to digest your story. You were really heroes and you performed in an extraordinary way under the most difficult conditions,” Ofer wrote to Zmora.“Arnon will forever be remembered in the history of our people,” said Netanyahu. “Just like the [Yitzhak] Rabin government supported the proposal to call the operation to free the hostage in Entebbe ‘Operation Yonatan,’ after the commander of the assault force who fell in battle, I am sure that our government also unanimously supports the proposal to name the operation to free the hostages in Gaza ‘Operation Arnon’ after the commander of the force who fell in battle — the hero of Israel Arnon Zmora.”Lazar Berman contributed to this report.

IDF: Hamas terrorist and journalist was holding 3 hostages in home alongside family-Abdallah Aljamal, news contributor and ex-Hamas spokesman, killed by troops in hostage rescue in Nuseirat; he was holding Almog Meir Jan, Andrey Kozlov and Shlomi Ziv captive-By Emanuel Fabian-Today, 9:40 pm-JUN 9,24

Three of four hostages rescued by special forces from the central Gaza Strip over the weekend were being held at the home of Abdallah Aljamal, a Palestinian journalist and member of the Hamas terror group, the Israeli military confirmed on Sunday.Rumors had circulated on social media after Ramy Abdu, head of the Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor, said in a post on X that soldiers had climbed into the Aljamals’ home during the raid in Nuseirat on Saturday, killing several members of the family, including Abdallah and his father, Dr. Ahmed Aljamal.Abdu published an image ostensibly from the Aljamals’ home alongside his post, though he made no mention of the possibility that hostages were held there.Abdallah Aljamal was previously a spokesman for the Hamas-run labor ministry in Gaza and has contributed to several news outlets in the past.Amid the war in Gaza, numerous articles by Aljamal had been published by the Palestine Chronicle outlet, including while hostages Almog Meir Jan, Andrey Kozlov and Shlomi Ziv were allegedly being held captive in his home.(The fourth hostage, Noa Argamani, had been rescued from a separate building amid Saturday’s operation.)-In an initial testimony documenting the killings committed by the Israeli army in the Nuseirat camp today, the @EuroMedHR reported that the Israeli army used a ladder to enter the home of Dr. Ahmed Al-Jamal.

Gazans claim IDF special forces posed as civilians, Hamas fighters to near hostages-Locals says Israeli forces entered Nuseirat camp in disguise before rescue op, with some claiming to be displaced Gazans renting an apartment in building where Noa Argamani was held-By Gianluca Pacchiani-Today, 8:04 pm-JUN 9,24

Some of the Israeli special forces that entered the Nuseirat camp in Gaza on Saturday to conduct a large-scale operation to free four hostages posed as displaced Gazans or as Hamas fighters, according to eyewitnesses quoted in Arab media outlets.The Saudi-owned Asharq news channel quoted local residents saying that a special forces unit, including women, entered the camp in disguise, driving in a white car loaded with mattresses. They said the women were dressed in clothes “that women are wearing here in the war.”According to the report, the special forces introduced themselves to local residents as Palestinians escaping the Israel Defense Forces operation in Rafah, and said they had rented a place in the area around the market in Nuseirat, while pointing at the building where hostage Noa Argamani was being held. The three male hostages who were also rescued in the operation — Andrey Kozlov, Shlomi Ziv and Almog Meir Jan — were being detained in another building 200 meters away.Israel’s Ynet news site said the unit was composed of mista‘aravim, special forces that operate in Palestinian areas by blending in with local Arabs and speaking the language fluently. The term translates as “those who become like Arabs.”The unit reportedly entered the Nuseirat camp from an area close to the newly built American maritime aid pier and to the Netzarim corridor, an east-west passage bisecting Gaza north of the camp which has been held by the IDF and is used as a jumping-off point for raids in northern and central Gaza.The disguised forces reportedly got out of their car and split into two groups, each heading toward one of the two buildings, in preparation for the operation.Eyewitnesses told Asharq that other special forces also snuck into the Nuseirat camp inside an aid truck. The IDF has denied using humanitarian transports for the operation.In a separate report, a resident of the Nuseirat camp told the Saudi news network Al-Arabiya that he saw men storming into his neighbor’s house wearing Hamas military uniforms, helmets and badges, and thought initially that they were Hamas operatives, but later realized they were members of an IDF special unit.The man recounted that there was an “insane exchange of fire” and that planes fired at the building of his neighbor, Ahmed Aljamal, “from every direction.”A tweet on the same incident by Ramy Abdu, head of the Hamas-affiliated Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor, claimed that the IDF used a ladder to enter Aljamal’s home.In an initial testimony documenting the killings committed by the Israeli army in the Nuseirat camp today, the @EuroMedHR reported that the Israeli army used a ladder to enter the home of Dr. Ahmed Al-Jamal.

Daniel Hagari said the hostages were rescued by special forces while “under fire.”Yamam Chief Inspector Arnon Zmora, who commanded the rescue team at the building where three hostages were being held, was critically wounded by Hamas fire. He was brought to an Israeli hospital, but died shortly after. The Hamas guards were killed in the exchange. Known originally as “Seeds of Summer,” the name of the rescue operation was changed after the event to “Operation Arnon” in his memory.Amid the operation, heavy airstrikes were carried out in the area against Hamas sites and in support of the ground troops, the military said.Hamas health authorities initially reported at least 50 Palestinians were killed. Hamas’s health ministry updated the toll to 274 on Sunday. The figure cannot be independently verified and does not distinguish between civilians and Hamas combatants. Hagari said on Saturday: “We know about under 100 [Palestinian] casualties. I don’t know how many of them are terrorists.”Nuseirat is one of the few areas of Gaza where ground troops had not yet maneuvered into during the IDF’s ground offensive against the Hamas terror group.Hagari said that the rescue had been in the works for “many weeks,” with “quality intelligence and complex operational planning.”“The intelligence for this operation was very complex to obtain,” he said.He said the hostages were held in the homes of Hamas-affiliated families, who were paid by Hamas.Emanuel Fabian contributed to this report.

Houthis claim to have attacked British destroyer, two other ships off coast of Yemen-Iran-backed rebels say they targeted the HMS Diamond with ballistic missiles; UK Defense Ministry dismisses statement as untrue-By Agencies and ToI Staff Today, 7:02 pm-JUN 9,24

Yemen’s Houthi rebels said Sunday that they had targeted ships off the country’s coast with missiles and drones after maritime security firms said two vessels had caught fire after being hit by projectiles.In a statement on social media platform X, Houthi military spokesperson Yahya Saree said the Iran-backed group had attacked “two ships belonging to companies that violated” its directives not to enter Israeli ports.He identified the vessels as the Liberia-flagged MSC Tavvishi and the Norderney, which sails under the flag of Antigua and Barbuda.Saree also said that the British naval warship the HMS Diamond had also been targeted, although the United Kingdom dismissed his claim as false.“These claims are untrue,” a British Ministry of Defence spokesperson said in response to Saree’s announcement that an “accurate” attack had been mounted against the ship with ballistic missiles.The Houthi announcement came after maritime security firm Ambrey said an Antigua and Barbuda-flagged cargo ship caught fire after being hit by a missile off Yemen on Saturday night.“The ship was heading southwest along the Gulf of Aden at a speed of 8.2kts when the forward station was struck by a missile. A fire started but was neutralized,” Ambrey said in a statement.A second missile was sighted but missed and “small boats in the vicinity opened fire on the ship” causing it to change direction to port.“No injuries were reported,” the security firm added.The United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO), run by Britain’s Royal Navy, said an “unknown projectile” hit a vessel off Yemen around 8 p.m. on Saturday, starting a small fire in the mooring station that was extinguished.“All crew are reported safe and the vessel is now proceeding to its next port of call,” it said.In a separate incident on Saturday night, the UKMTO reported another projectile struck a ship “on the aft section,” resulting in a fire. No casualties were reported.“Vessels are advised to transit with caution,” it said.The Houthis, who control the most populous parts of Yemen, have attacked ships off its coast for months, saying they are acting in solidarity with Palestinians amid the ongoing Israel-Hamas war in Gaza, which broke out after the terror group launched a devastating shock assault on southern Israel.Houthi fighters have launched drone and missile attacks in the Bab el-Mandeb Strait and the Gulf of Aden, forcing shippers since November to take longer and more costly journeys around southern Africa.The United States and Britain have carried out strikes against Houthi targets in response to the attacks.The Houthis have launched more than 50 attacks on shipping, killed three sailors, seized one vessel, and sunk another since November, according to the US Maritime Administration. A US-led airstrike campaign has targeted the Houthis since January, with a series of strikes on May 30 killing at least 16 people and wounding 42 others, the rebels say.But while gaining more attention internationally, the secretive group has cracked down on dissent at home. Eleven Yemeni employees of United Nations agencies and others working for aid groups were detained by the Houthis under unclear circumstances last week, as the rebels face increasing financial pressure and airstrikes from the US-led coalition. The Iran-backed group also recently sentenced 44 people to death.

Explosive drones, rocket barrage from Lebanon spark fires in Golan Heights-IDF strikes several Hezbollah sites in southern Lebanon, reportedly killing 2; meeting with Biden in Paris, Macron pledges to ‘avoid a regional explosion, particularly in Lebanon’ By Emanuel Fabian-and Agencies Today, 6:28 pm-JUN 9,24

Waves of rocket and drone attacks on northern Israel set off sirens repeatedly throughout Sunday and sparked fires in the Golan Heights, as Israel and Hezbollah once again traded fire throughout the day while international allies called for a de-escalation.A day earlier, the Iran-backed Lebanese terror group boasted of using the heavy Falaq-2 rocket, which holds a 60-kilogram (132-pound) warhead, against Israel for the first time.Around noon on Sunday, two explosive-laden drones launched from Lebanon at Israel struck areas in the northern Golan Heights, sparking fires, the Israel Defense Forces said.A short while before the drone attack, a barrage of some 10 rockets was launched from Lebanon, hitting open areas in the northern Golan, the military added. The rocket attack also sparked a fire. The IDF said it was shelling the launch sites with artillery.Repeated sirens that sounded in the northern communities of Avivim, Yir’on and Malkia on Sunday afternoon were all determined to be false alarms, the military later said.Earlier Sunday, several rockets were launched from Lebanon at the Misgav Am area, striking open areas and causing no injuries, the IDF.Defense Minister Yoav Gallant held an assessment with military officials along the Lebanon border today, his office said, meeting with the chief of staff of the Northern Command, Brig. Gen. Sagiv Dahan and other senior military officials.The defense minister was briefed on recent IDF operations in the area and Israel’s efforts to foil Hezbollah’s drone attacks, the ministry said.The minister “emphasized [to the officers] the importance of continuing to eliminate Hezbollah terrorists and commanders,” his office added.The IDF said Sunday morning that Israeli fighter jets struck several Hezbollah targets in southern Lebanon overnight and that morning. The IDF said the targets hit Saturday night included infrastructure in Aitaroun and buildings used by the terror group in Rab al-Thalathine, and on Sunday morning a rocket launcher in Houla was struck.Lebanon’s state news agency NNA reported that two people were killed in the Saturday airstrike on the outskirts of Aitaroun. The agency also reported Saturday that “a large fire broke out at positions belonging to the Lebanese army and UNIFIL,” the UN peacekeeping mission, in the area of the border village of Mais al-Jabal.A security source told AFP on condition of anonymity that fires broke out near military positions but have not reached them or caused any casualties. UNIFIL in a statement reported a “bushfire near one of their positions in Houla,” which was put out with help from Lebanese troops and civil defense forces, adding that the fire “didn’t cause any damage to UNIFIL assets or personnel.”Earlier Saturday, fighter jets also struck Hezbollah infrastructure in Khiam, and tanks shelled a building used by the terror group in Kafr Kila, the IDF said.The exchanges of fire came a day after French President Emmanuel Macron and US President Joe Biden met in Paris and said they would work to prevent a further escalation of tensions between Israel and Hezbollah, who have been engaged in cross-border attacks for the past eight months.Since October 8, 10 civilians have been killed in Israel along the northern border, as have 15 IDF soldiers and reservists. Hezbollah has named 334 members who have been killed by Israel during the ongoing skirmishes, mostly in Lebanon but some also in Syria. In Lebanon, another 62 operatives from other terror groups, a Lebanese soldier, and around 90 civilians have been killed, according to an AFP tally.“We are redoubling efforts together to avoid a regional explosion, particularly in Lebanon,” Macron said in a joint statement with Biden during the US president’s state visit to France.Macron added that the sides were working on “advancing parameters” to reduce tensions and end an institutional vacuum in Lebanon. He said the two countries had developed “a close coordination” in the discussions “with Israel on one side and with Lebanon and all the parties involved on the other side.”Biden made no mention of Lebanon in the short statement and also did not mention Iran, which Macron said was adopting a strategy of escalation in the region, citing Tehran’s attack on Israel and the development of its nuclear program. Iran is also a major financial and military backer of Hezbollah.“Our two countries are determined to exert the necessary pressures to stop this trend,” Macron said.But the rocket and drone attacks from Lebanon and Israel’s responding airstrikes showed no sign of abating over the weekend.On Saturday, the IDF said that Israeli fighter jets carried out a wave of airstrikes in southern Lebanon targeting a cell and rocket launchers. The Hezbollah cell was identified entering a building used by the terror group in Markaba. A short while later the building was struck, according to the IDF. The IDF said fighter jets also hit four Hezbollah rocket launchers, in Chihine, Zibqin, Hanine and Houla.A Hezbollah barrage of five rockets on the Galilee Panhandle sparked a fire on Saturday evening, the military said. Several more anti-tank guided missiles were also launched at Malkia and Misgav Am, causing damage to buildings and sparking another fire in the latter. The IDF said it shelled the sources of fire with artillery.Hezbollah on Saturday took responsibility for at least 10 attacks on northern Israel throughout the day, claiming to use heavy Falaq-2 rockets for the first time.The terror group boasted that it fired a salvo of Falaq-2 rockets at an IDF base in the north. A security source told Reuters it was the first time the group had used this type of rocket, after firing the smaller Falaq-1 on dozens of previous occasions.Times of Israel staff contributed to this report.

Iran okays 6 candidates for presidential race, again blocks Ahmadinejad-Firebrand former president who clashed with Supreme Leader Khamenei is barred from final list; Mohammed Bagher Qaliba, a controversial ex-IRGC general, is seen as frontrunner-By AP Today, 4:59 pm-JUN 9,24

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates — Iran’s Guardian Council on Sunday approved the country’s hardline parliament speaker and five others to run in the country’s June 28 presidential election following a helicopter crash that killed President Ebrahim Raisi and seven others.The council again barred former president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, a firebrand populist known for his hardline anti-Israel and antisemitic rhetoric and for the crackdown that followed his disputed 2009 reelection, from running.The council’s decision represents the starting gun for a shortened, two-week campaign to replace Raisi, a hardline protege of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei once floated as a possible successor for the 85-year-old cleric.The selection of candidates approved by the Guardian Council, a panel of clerics and jurists ultimately overseen by Khamenei, suggests Iran’s Shiite theocracy hopes to ease the election through after recent votes saw record-low turnout and as tensions remain high over the country’s rapidly advancing nuclear program, as well as the Israel-Hamas war.The Guardian Council also continued its streak of not accepting a woman or anyone calling for radical change to the country’s governance.The campaign likely will include live, televised debates by the candidates on Iran’s state-run broadcaster. They also advertise on billboards and offer stump speeches to back their bids.So far, none of them has offered any specifics, though all have promised a better economic situation for the country as it suffers from sanctions by the US and other Western nations over its nuclear program, which now enriches uranium closer than ever to weapons-grade levels.Such matters of state remain the final decision of Khamenei, but presidents in the past have leaned either toward engagement or confrontation with the West over it.The most prominent candidate remains Mohammed Bagher Qalibaf, 62, a former Tehran mayor with close ties to the country’s paramilitary Revolutionary Guard. However, many remember that Qalibaf, as a former Guard general, was part of a violent crackdown on Iranian university students in 1999. He also reportedly ordered live gunfire to be used against students in 2003 while serving as the country’s police chief.Qalibaf ran unsuccessfully for president in 2005 and 2013. He withdrew from the 2017 presidential campaign to support Raisi in the latter’s first failed presidential bid. Raisi won the 2021 election, which had the lowest turnout ever for a presidential vote in Iran, after every major opponent found themselves disqualified.Khamenei gave a speech last week alluding to qualities that Qalibaf’s supporters have highlighted as potentially signaling the supreme leader’s support for the speaker.Yet Qalibaf’s role in crackdowns may be viewed differently after years of unrest that have gripped Iran, both over its ailing economy and the mass protests sparked by the 2022 death of Mahsa Amini, a young woman who died after being arrested for allegedly not wearing her headscarf, or hijab, to the liking of security forces.The Guardian Council disqualified Ahmadinejad, the firebrand, Holocaust-questioning former president. Ahmadinejad increasingly challenged Khamenei toward the end of his term and is remembered for the bloody crackdown on the 2009 Green Movement protests. He was also disqualified in the last election by the panel.The election comes at a time of heightened tensions between Iran and the West over its arming of Russia in that country’s war on Ukraine. Its support of militia proxy forces throughout the wider Middle East has been increasingly in the spotlight as Yemen’s Houthi rebels attack ships in the Red Sea over the Israel-Hamas war in the Gaza Strip.Raisi, Iranian foreign minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian and others were killed in the May 19 helicopter crash in the far northwest of Iran. Investigations are continuing, though authorities say there’s no immediate sign of foul play in the crash on a cloud-covered mountainside.Raisi is the second Iranian president to die in office. In 1981, a bomb blast killed president Mohammad Ali Rajai in the chaotic days after the country’s Islamic Revolution.

Hamas sources deny Egypt, Qatar threatened to arrest leaders if hostage deal not okayed-Saudi state media cites terror group figures as saying mediator countries did not say they would detain chiefs, but make no mention of other reported potential sanctions-By ToI Staff Today, 4:13 pm-JUN 9,24

Egypt and Qatar did not threaten to arrest Hamas leaders if they did not accept the latest hostage deal proposal, Hamas sources tell the state-owned Saudi Al Arabiya outlet in a Sunday report.The Hamas sources rejected a Wall Street Journal report from Friday that claimed the two mediator countries turned up the pressure on Hamas’s leadership in Doha to sign a deal presented by the White House for a truce in Gaza and the release of Israeli hostages held there.According to the Journal, which cited unnamed officials familiar with the negotiations, the two countries threatened the terror group’s leaders with sanctions, including the freezing of their assets, expulsion from the Qatari capital, and arrests. This was reportedly at the prodding of the Biden administration.The Al Arabiya report only mentions the threat of arrest and does not address the claims of warnings of other potential sanctions.The Gaza-based terror group has signaled that it will reject the deal.War erupted on October 7 when Hamas led a massive attack on Israel that killed 1,200 people, mostly civilians. The 3,000 attackers who burst through the boundary with the Gaza Strip also abducted 251 people who were taken as hostages to the Palestinian enclave.Israel responded with a military offensive to destroy Hamas and free the hostages.US President Biden laid out the latest Israeli proposal in a May 31 speech at the White House that reportedly took Israel by surprise. The offer envisions three phases of negotiations — which have faltered since April — beginning with a six-week truce during which the remaining living female, elderly, and sick hostages would be released.In a call last Monday with Qatari Emir Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, Biden urged Qatar “to use all appropriate measures to secure Hamas’s acceptance of the deal,” according to a White House readout. On Thursday, US State Department spokesman Matthew Miller said the Biden administration was “confident” that Qatar was exerting as much pressure as possible. Disagreement between Israel and Hamas about the deal has hinged on its stipulation of a permanent ceasefire in Gaza.Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu responded to Biden’s speech in two statements last week reiterating that Israel was committed to dismantling Hamas and would not commit to a permanent ceasefire. Defense Minister Yoav Gallant said on Wednesday that Israel would negotiate with Hamas only “under fire.”Hamas, which initially said it “positively views” the proposal, has since signaled it would likely reject the deal.“There is a gap between what is in the paper and Biden’s statements,” the terror group said on Wednesday, adding that the alleged discrepancy had led to “confusion and controversy.”The Wall Street Journal, which reviewed the text of the proposal, said it played down the possibility of a permanent ceasefire, which would depend on talks held during the deal’s first phase. By contrast, the proposal contained multiple mentions of “sustainable calm,” said the Journal.Meanwhile, Hamas remained defiant on Saturday after the Israel Defense Forces rescued four hostages from captivity in Gaza.Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh, the most senior of the terror group’s officials based in Doha, warned in a statement, “If the occupation believes that it can impose its choices on us by force, then it is delusional.”The terror group said earlier it still held a large number of hostages and could increase it, while its military wing threatened the remaining captives held in Gaza.The deputy chief of Palestinian Islamic Jihad, which is an ally of Hamas, said the operation would not impact negotiations on a hostage-for-ceasefire agreement. Mohammad Al-Hindi said that conditions for the deal remain the same, in comments to Hamas-affiliated Al-Aqsa TV, referring to the terror groups’ demand for an end to the war in GazA.The US has requested mediators — particularly Qatar — to apply pressure on Hamas in previous rounds of the talks. In April, Qatari Prime Minister Mohammed bin Abdulrahman al-Thani said his country was reviewing its role as a mediator due to the “abuse” it had received from critics who claimed Doha was not doing enough to get Hamas to sign an agreement.Amid the accusations lobbed at Qatar — by Netanyahu and members of the US Congress, among others — The Wall Street Journal reported that Hamas had contacted two other countries in the region about relocating.

Colombia says it will halt coal sales to Israel over war in Gaza-Government document says exports to only resume once Jerusalem complies with UN court ruling on Rafah; Colombian Mining Association says move imperils markets, foreign investment-By Agencies and ToI Staff 9 June 2024, 11:15 am

Colombian President Gustavo Petro announced on Saturday that his country will suspend coal exports to Israel over the war against Hamas in Gaza, with relations souring between two countries that were once close military and commercial allies.Petro wrote on the social media platform X that coal exports will only resume “when the genocide” in Gaza stops. Petro also posted a draft decree that says coal exports will only resume if Israel complies with a recent order by the International Court of Justice to immediately halt the military assault on Rafah that would risk the destruction of the civilian population sheltering there.Israel denies accusations that its war violates the international genocide convention, stressing that its military operations are targeted against terror groups which operate within civilian infrastructure.According to the Colombian government, the coal export ban will enter into force five days after the decree is published in the official gazette and will not affect goods that have already been authorized for shipment.Bogota underscored coal’s role as “a strategic resource for the manufacture of weapons, the mobilization of troops and the manufacture of provisions for military operations.”According to Colombia’s National Statistics Department, coal exports to Israel were worth more than $320 million in the first eight months of last year. That’s a small fraction of the nation’s overall coal exports, which were worth more than $9 billion in 2023.Israel imports more than 50 percent of its coal from Colombia, according to the American Journal for Transportation, and uses much of it to feed its power plants.Petro, who was elected into office in 2022 as Colombia’s first leftist president, broke diplomatic ties with Israel in May, saying that he could not maintain relations with the “genocidal” government of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.Both governments have continued to keep consulates in each other’s territories and conduct trade.Colombia has long depended on Israel for military hardware that includes assault rifles and intelligence equipment. The South American nation has also bought more than 30 fighter jets from Israel over the past three decades and depends on Israeli companies for their maintenance.New military purchases have been halted, however, as relations between the two countries deteriorate. Critics of Petro have said that the president’s decision to cut ties with Israel jeopardizes Colombia’s security capabilities as its military fights drug cartels and rebel groups in rural parts of the country.On Thursday, the Colombian Mining Association expressed concern over the possibility of exports being suspended, noting a trade treaty between the two nations in place since 2020.“Israel is a key destination for Colombia’s thermal coal exports,” the organization said in a statement, adding that banning shipments “jeopardizes confidence in markets and foreign investment.”But others applauded Petro’s latest move against Israel. The Global Energy Embargo for Palestine, an advocacy group that has been trying to convince nations around the world to stop coal and oil exports to Israel, said in a statement on Saturday that Colombia’s decision could put pressure on Israel to change its policies in the Gaza Strip, and will also put pressure on Israeli settlements in the West Bank that rely on electric plants fueled by coal imports.“We urgently call on South Africa, which provides 9% of Israel’s coal, to follow Colombia’s lead,” the group said in the statement while urging other countries with significant energy exports to also consider a ban.Unlike previous Colombian presidents, who kept strong ties with Israel, Petro has been an outspoken critic of the Middle Eastern nation and initially refused to condemn the Hamas massacre — which saw thousands of terrorists burst across the border by land, air, and sea, killing some 1,200 people and seizing 251 hostages, mostly civilians — that sparked the ongoing war.The Hamas-run Gaza health ministry says more than 36,000 people in the Strip have been killed or are presumed dead in the fighting so far. Of these, some 24,000 fatalities have been identified at hospitals or through self-reporting by families, with the rest of the figure based on Hamas “media sources.” The tolls, which cannot be verified, include some 15,000 terror operatives Israel says it has killed in battle. Israel also says it killed some 1,000 terrorists inside Israel on October 7.A total of 295 IDF soldiers and one police officer have been killed during the ground offensive against Hamas and amid operations along the Gaza border. A civilian Defense Ministry contractor was also killed in the Strip.

White House denounces ‘repugnant’ pro-Hamas rhetoric at DC protest against Israel-‘Where is the outrage?’ fumes ADL chief after demonstration outside White House that included calls to kill Zionists ‘aka the overwhelming majority of American Jews’By Jacob Magid-and ToI Staff Today, 5:01 am-JUN 9,24

The Biden administration on Sunday slammed the “repugnant” rhetoric voiced at an anti-Israel protest outside the White House a day earlier, during which pro-Hamas and pro-Hezbollah demonstrators called for “jihad” and the killing of Zionists.“President Biden has always been clear that every American has the right to peacefully express their views. But he has also always been clear that antisemitism, violent rhetoric, and endorsing murderous terrorist organizations like Hamas is repugnant, dangerous and against everything we stand for as a country,” White House deputy spokesperson Andrew Bates tells The Times of Israel.“Like Jake Sullivan said this morning, ‘The best way to get all of the hostages home and to protect Palestinian civilians is to end this war. And the best way to end this war is for Hamas to say yes to the deal [the] president announced and that Israel has accepted, which lays out a roadmap to an enduring ceasefire and the return of all hostages,’” Bates added.During Saturday’s rally, masked demonstrators chanted slogans urging Hamas’s military wing to “kill another soldier now” and calling on Hezbollah to “kill another Zionist now,” according to reports on social media. Protesters also held signs calling for “Intifada,” a reference to periods of deadly Palestinian terror attacks against Israeli civilians in the late 1980s and early 1990s and again in the early 2000s.One video posted to X showed a man with a Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine headband burning the American flag, while other protesters appeared to be wearing green Hamas headbands, including one who held aloft a bloody Biden mask.Images from the protest also showed demonstrators vandalizing statues across from the White House in Lafayette Park, where video showed some of them throwing objects at a park ranger and chanting “f**k you fascist.” No arrests were reported.#NOW Park Police dances as protesters throw bottles and chant "Fascist!" at him outside of White House DC pic.twitter.com/mXC9CeO4Ed— Oliya Scootercaster ????

Where is the outrage? Where is the pushback?” he continued, calling “to end the bigotry and stop this madness before it’s too late.”‘Free Palestine’ protestors are demonstrating against the White House, calling for the murder of Zionists (i.e. most Jews).When you live in a political culture that systematically dehumanizes “Zionists,” the eventual outgrowth of dehumanization is violence.

This is downright disgusting hatred and antisemitism in the US,” said Meredith Weisel in a statement.The rally came as antisemitism has surged in the US since October 7 and the subsequent war in Gaza, with Greenblatt last week reporting a 900 percent rise.Agencies contributed to this report.

US resumes airdrops of humanitarian assistance into northern Gaza-Resumption of aid shipments by air comes day after deliveries also restarted at US-built pier that was damaged by bad weather-By AFP and ToI Staff Today, 3:55 am-JUN 9,24

An American cargo plane dropped more than 10 metric tons of rations into northern Gaza on Sunday, the US military said, after a suspension of such deliveries due to Israeli operations in the area.The Gaza Strip’s population is in dire need of humanitarian assistance after eight months of devastating fighting between Israel and Hamas, and the United States turned to delivering it by air and sea as it pressed Israel to increase the amount of aid entering the enclave by land.The air drop provided “life-saving humanitarian assistance in northern Gaza,” the US Central Command (CENTCOM) said in a statement.“To date the US has airdropped more than 1,050 metric tons of humanitarian assistance” in addition to aid delivered via a temporary pier attached to the Gaza coast, it said.“These airdrops are part of a sustained effort, and we continue to plan follow-on aerial deliveries,” CENTCOM added.The Pentagon said in late May that factors including Israeli operations and weather conditions were affecting the drops, while deputy CENTCOM commander Vice Admiral Brad Cooper said Friday that they had been “suspended due to the kinetic operations happening in the north” but were expected to resume soon.The latest airdrop came a day after aid deliveries were restarted via the pier, which was damaged by bad weather last month and had to be repaired in a nearby port before being reattached to the coast.Gaza is suffering through its bloodiest-ever war, which was started by Hamas’s devastating October 7 attack on Israel, during which Palestinian terrorists killed some 1,200 people, mostly civilians, and took 251 hostages.The Hamas-run Gaza health ministry says more than 37,000 people in the Strip have been killed or are presumed dead in the fighting so far. Of these, some 24,000 fatalities have been identified at hospitals or through self-reporting by families, with the rest of the figure based on Hamas “media sources.” The tolls, which cannot be verified, include some 15,000 terror operatives Israel says it has killed in battle. Israel also says it killed some 1,000 terrorists inside Israel on October 7.295 soldiers and one police officer have been killed during the ground offensive against Hamas and amid operations along the Gaza border.

Ukrainian warplane fires weapon at target inside Russia for first time-Sky News-Updated Sun, June 9, 2024 at 11:56 a.m. EDT

A Ukrainian warplane has for the first time fired a weapon that struck a target inside Russia, a Ukrainian military source has told Sky News.The source said a "Russian command node" was hit on Sunday in the area of Belgorod, western Russia.Belgorod is close to the border with northeastern Ukraine.It was not immediately clear what type of munition was used in the attack, including whether or not it had been a Western weapon.The United States and France recently said the Ukrainian armed forces were permitted to use their arms to strike military targets inside Russia - from where Russian forces are launching attacks against Ukraine.Under new guidance approved by President Joe Biden, American munitions can be used on Russian soil to help defend the city of Kharkiv in northeastern Ukraine.Lord Cameron, the UK foreign secretary, has been less specific, merely saying it was up to Ukraine to decide how they use British weapons - such as Storm Shadow cruise missiles that can be fired by Ukrainian jets.'Direct hit' Speaking on condition of anonymity, the military source told Sky News: "A Ukrainian Air Force (UAF) mission has struck a Russian command node in Belgorod."Whilst damage assessment is still occurring, it is confirmed as a direct hit. This is the first UAF air-delivered munition delivered against a target within Russia."Ukraine has launched multiple drone strikes deep into Russian territory. But the use of a warplane to strike targets inside Russia could be seen by Moscow as a new escalation.The Russian defence ministry said its forces had shot down a number of Ukrainian drones in the Belgorod region. It was not clear whether this was part of the same assault.Ukraine also targeting Russian shipsThe Ukrainian military source also said that on Saturday evening, Ukrainian forces conducted a "coordinated strike" against a Russian landing ship that had recently moved to the Sea of Azov from the Black Sea.The vessel has become the fifth of seven Ropucha-class landing ships to be sunk or "rendered unserviceable" by Ukrainian attacks, the source said."This successful strike shows the Russians they cannot operate with freedom either in the Black Sea or eastward," the source added.The Russian military uses such ships to ferry ammunition and supplies to the occupied city of Mariupol for onward transit to the frontline, according to the source."By thwarting Russian shipments of ammunition and key military supplies this strike will directly support Ukrainian troops in their ongoing fight," the source said.Separately, Kyiv's main military intelligence service said its forces had hit an ultra-modern Russian warplane stationed on an air base nearly 400 miles from the frontline, the Associated Press (AP) news agency reported.It was not immediately clear what weapons were used, but the airfield's distance from Ukraine suggests it was likely hit by drones.If confirmed, it would mark Ukraine's first known successful strike on a Su-57 fighter plane, AP added.That is a twin-engine stealth fighter described as Moscow's most advanced military aircraft.The details of the latest Ukrainian strikes come after AP, quoting a US senator and a Western official, reported on Wednesday that Ukraine had used US weapons to strike inside Russia in recent days.

Toronto 'Walk with Israel' event held amid high security, faceoffs with protesters-The Canadian Press-Sun, June 9, 2024 at 2:22 p.m. EDT

TORONTO — Thousands of members of Toronto's Jewish community marched down a major city artery on Sunday as part of an annual pro-Israel event that unfolded amid heightened security and protests along the route.The United Jewish Appeal held its annual "Walk with Israel," which involves a five-kilometre walk and a festival in the city's north end.March participants, who were expected to turn out in record numbers, waved Israeli flags and carried posters of those taken hostage during the Oct. 7 attack by Hamas that triggered the latest war with Israel.The UJA estimated that 50,000 people participated, but Toronto police said they won't have an official estimate until the event is fully wrapped up later on Sunday.The march was accompanied by a strong police presence and private security personnel, with a large stretch of Bathurst Street blocked off for the event. Marchers encountered two groups of protesters within the first hour of the walk, with police using buses to obstruct demonstrators' view of the event.Duelling chants of "free, free Palestine" and "bring them home" rang out when the groups crossed paths at the corner of Bathurst Street and Sheppard Avenue and some heated exchanges occurred. Police officers formed barriers between the two groups and intervened in confrontations.Several pro-Palestinian protesters encountered along the march route declined a request for comment. Their placards and chants expressed opposition to Israel's massive offensive in Gaza since Oct. 7.The United Jewish Appeal Federation of Greater Toronto's Noah Shack said the amount of security surrounding the event was “a sad testament to where our city is right now."In an interview before the march began, he said there's been "an explosion of hate" directed at Toronto's Jewish community since the start of the latest war and the event was a show of support and resilience."Walk with Israel" attendees also included some people whose family members were taken hostage by Hamas.Avichai Brodutch, whose wife and three children were released from captivity in November, said it was "really important for us to come over to Toronto and meet the community and tell our story to the people of Canada.""I feel at home being here and seeing everybody come and showing their support," said Brodutch, whose brother lives in Toronto.Brodutch said the community is also celebrating the rescue of four Israeli hostages from Gaza on Saturday.Gaza's Health Ministry said Sunday that at least 274 Palestinians, including dozens of children, were killed, as part of that rescue operation.Toronto resident Maayan Shavit said her cousin is still being held hostage by Hamas."We know from the beginning that she's being held underground," she said, adding that her family is hoping for a "miracle."Shavit said she wants the world to understand "that human beings are not for trade.""You don't trade people ... they are not soldiers, they are civilians."Several groups representing Jews who oppose Israel's actions in Gaza urged community members to instead sit with the students at a pro-Palestinian encampment on the University of Toronto campus on Sunday."For a growing number of Jews here in Canada, witnessing the continued siege and assault on Gaza fills us with horror and grief for what is being done in our name,” Jonathan Brown Gilbert, a University of Toronto graduate student at the encampment said in an emailed statement a day before the march.This report by The Canadian Press was first published June 9, 2024.The Canadian Press.

Iceland: Lava flow engulfs road as it advances towards coastal town after volcano eruption-Oliver Browning-Sun, June 9, 2024 at 7:23 a.m. EDT

The lava flow from an active volcano in Iceland again engulfed a road leading to the coastal town of Grindavik and the popular Blue Lagoon geothermal spa on Saturday 8 June, with officials closely monitoring its path.Drone footage captured on the Reykjanes Peninsula shows the steadily advancing flow.The volcano had stabilised since a 29 May eruption, the fifth and most powerful since the volcanic system reawakened in December after 800 years.Authorities monitoring the lava flow said it was advancing significantly slower than during the previous two eruptions.The same section of road, several kilometres (miles) from the town, was previously engulfed in February and March this year.

Volcanic Fissure Reawakens on Iceland’s Reykjanes Peninsula-TOPICS:NASANASA Earth ObservatoryVolcano-By Lindsey Doermann, NASA Earth Observatory June 8, 2024

A volcanic fissure on Iceland’s Reykjanes peninsula erupted in late May 2024, marking the continuation of a series that began in December 2023. The area experienced significant magma accumulation since the previous eruption in March, and the renewed lava flow impacted local infrastructure and prompted evacuations, including at the Blue Lagoon geothermal spa. (Photo of a previous volcanic eruption in Iceland.)A volcanic fissure on Iceland’s Reykjanes peninsula came alive again with voluminous, vigorous flows.Iceland’s Reykjanes peninsula experienced a volcanic eruption in late May 2024, with satellite images from early June showing subsided activity. The eruption followed significant magma buildup and affected nearby communities and infrastructure.Satellite image of the ongoing eruption on Iceland’s Reykjanes peninsula captured on June 2, 2024, by the Operational Land Imager on Landsat 8.In late May 2024, a volcanic fissure on Iceland’s Reykjanes peninsula reawakened. This eruption, the latest in a series that began in December 2023, was notable for its vigorous start. Some of the highest estimated lava flow rates of all the recent eruptions near Grindavík occurred in the first hours of the eruption.The Landsat 8 satellite’s Operational Land Imager (OLI ) captured this image of the ongoing eruption on June 2, 2024. The natural-color scene is overlaid with an infrared signal to help distinguish the lava’s heat signature. By this time, volcanic activity along a fissure extending up to 3.4 kilometers (2.1 miles) long had subsided after its initial burst. The most active areas, emitting the hottest thermal signals (light green), are near one of the craters that erupted in March 2024, according to the Icelandic Met Office (IMO). Much of the black area in the image is cooled lava, but note that dark shadows from clouds are also present.Magma Accumulation and Eruption Dynamics-Models indicated that 18 million cubic meters of magma had accumulated beneath the fissure since the March eruption, the IMO reported. This was the largest volume of magma to build up in the reservoir since the intrusion first formed in autumn 2023. And the lull in aboveground activity between March and May represented the longest period since late 2023 that magma had accumulated without erupting.Impact on Local Areas and Air Quality-When lava did break through to the surface at 12:46 p.m. local time on May 29, it gushed at an estimated 1,500 cubic meters per second for several hours. For comparison, lava discharged at an estimated 1,100-1,200 cubic meters per second in the early hours of the March eruption and 600 cubic meters per second at the start of the February eruption.The flows again covered roads and threatened the town of Grindavík, which has largely remained empty since evacuations in late 2023. Human-built defensive walls along the northwest side of town diverted lava away from buildings. Flows also spurred renewed evacuations at the Blue Lagoon, a geothermal spa several kilometers north of Grindavík. When it reopened on June 2, visitors could see molten lava erupting in the distance.As with previous bursts of activity, this eruption did not disrupt air travel; effusive eruptions such as these tend to emit minimal ash. However, the long daylight hours increased the likelihood for volcanic smog, or vog, to form, and this haze was observed in different parts of the country, the IMO reported. Vog, which consists primarily of very fine sulfate (SO4) particles, forms when sulfur dioxide and other volcanic pollutants mix with oxygen and water vapor in the presence of sunlight.NASA Earth Observatory image by Lauren Dauphin, using Landsat data from the U.S. Geological Survey
