A Palestinian from Gaza:

“American weapons, Russian weapons, British weapons, overall European weapons… all of them only to kill this poor people… We found these weapons after the Israeli army withdrew from Khan Younis.”

⚡️Iraqi journalist Othman Mokhtar:

Number of Iraqi Army forces: 450,000 soldiers.

Number of Interior Ministry forces: 714,000 personnel.

Number of PMF militias: 238,000 personnel.

Number of Counter Terrorism Service personnel: 237,000 personnel.

Number of National Security Service personnel: 143,000 personnel.

Number of Intelligence Service personnel: 118,000 personnel.

Number of Special Division personnel: 12,000 personnel.

Total: 1.912 million military and security personnel.

And the result: A Zionist camp in Najaf remained undiscovered for weeks!

Meanwhile, the militias were launching drones at Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Syria, and Jordan under the pretext of American bases present there.

Once again, all the American objectives behind the 2003 occupation of Iraq have been achieved, foremost among them turning Iraq into a weak, fragile, and subordinate country.

The Campaign Against Arms Trade (CAAT) has revealed that the UK Department for Business and Trade (DBT) has granted two new licences for the export of military equipment to Israel, including an £8.7 ($11.85) million licence covering “components and technology for targeting equipment”.

The licences were issued despite the British government’s September 2024 suspension of such exports over fears they would be used in Israel’s genocide in Gaza. CAAT’s analysis of UK export licensing statistics for the fourth quarter of 2025, published on 30 April, found that the UK issued export licences worth £20.5 ($27.9) million in total for transfers to Israel during the quarter.

The most significant of the new approvals was an Open Individual Export Licence for “components and technology for targeting equipment” — a category of export the UK government had publicly suspended eight months earlier, citing the risk of use in Israel’s genocide in Gaza. When questioned about the licence, DBT replied that it “covers items for re-export from Israel, and the Government of Israel is not an end-user or ultimate end-user. This is consistent with our suspension”.

CAAT said the defence rested on a legal fiction.
