Fire sparks in southern Lebanese town following Israeli shelling
Fire sparks in southern Lebanese town following Israeli shelling Al Jazeera reported that Israeli artillery shelling targeting the town of Haddatha in the Bint Jbeil district in southern Lebanon resulted in a fire breaking out.
A 32-year-old man from Majd al-Krum, Hamdan Hamdan, was arrested by Israel Police on suspicion of making contact with a foreign agent several months ago to conduct missions in Israel on their behalf, officials announced on Friday. The police claim that Hamdan was aware of the Lebanese origin of the agent and requested security missions in Israel in exchange for the agent's assistance.
Additionally, a 31-year-old man from Tamra, Sultan Abu al-Haija, has been arrested on suspicion of contacting both Hamas and Iranian forces in an attempt to aid them. The police say that al-Haija had reached out to the military wing of Hamas for covert assistance, while Iran forces were also contacted, despite his arrest before he could carry out any operations.
Indictments against both men are expected to be issued on Sunday and Friday respectively. Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich responded to Hamdan's arrest, stating that people in the Galilee are in an atmosphere similar to October 6, accusing residents of Majd al-Krum of chanting "long live Palestine." He suggested that it is time to bring the revolution in Judea and Samaria to the Galilee and Negev, implying that radical Islamic forces have infiltrated the region.
