Israel on Wednesday declared UN chief Antonio Guterres "persona non grata", banning him from entering the country.

During the Iranian missile attack on Israel yesterday, a Palestinian man was killed in the West Bank town of Nu'eima near Jericho after the falling fuselage of an intercepted missile hit him.

Iran launched over 180 missiles at Israel, prompting retaliation vows from Netanyahu. The US pledged full support as tensions rise, and the UN called an emergency meeting.

Former Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad alleges Mossad infiltrated Iran’s intelligence, including a key unit tasked with countering Israeli espionage, raising concerns about Iran’s security vulnerabilities.

Iran’s state-run IRNA news agency reported that Abbas Nilforushan, Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps’ deputy commander, was killed along with Hezbollah leaders in the Israeli operation in Beirut.

Following the death of Hezbollah chief Nasrallah, Israel’s army chief, Lieutenant General Herzi Halevi, vowed to “reach” anyone who poses a threat to Israeli citizens

As per Hezbollah's internal military intelligence report, over 879 members were killed in the explosion of pagers, walkie-talkies, including 131 Iranians and 79 Yemenis.

Khamenei's bluster on the "sufferings of Muslims" was likely to position himself as the leader of the Muslim world, but it came at a time when Iran has been preparing to deport millions of Afghan refugees, exposing the hollow support to 'Muslim Ummah'.

It is pertinent to note that the Iranian Supreme leader made the anti-India post while vying itself as a champion and leader of the Muslim world, months after persecuting innocent Muslims protesting against the death of Mahsa Amini, who was killed for not wearing hijab properly.

In the days leading up to the Israel attack, Hezbollah had said that it is preparing to launch a major attack against Israel in retaliation for the assassination of its top military commander in Beirut by Israel.
