UPDATES: US War on Iran, Day 170 \u2014 Americans Lose 1\/4 of Their Reaper Drones<\/a><\/p>\n Iran\u2019s authorities have executed another participant in the nationwide protests in January.<\/p>\n
The judiciary claimed Shahram Sadeghi ran over and injured several police officers with his car. They declared he \u201ccarried out an operational action in support of the Zionist regime and the United States\u201d.<\/p>\n
Sadeghi supposedly struck the officers on January 8 in Karaj, west of Tehran, as Iran\u2019s security forces carried out military-style attacks adding to the toll of thousands slain during the protests.<\/p>\n
Around 30 participants in the protests have been executed during the US-Israel War.<\/p>\n
At least 11 people were slain, including three children and women, were killed Saturday.<\/p>\n
Seven of the victims, including the children and women, were slain by strikes near the town of Ansar. Another two, as well as nine injured, were hit in Deir al-Zahrani.<\/p>\n
The Netanyahu Government said the attacks were in response to the serious wounding of three Israeli soldiers by a Hezbollah attack in the Ali Taher ridge area of southern Lebanon overnight. It insisted that the Ansar killings occurred because \u201cHezbollah deliberately put civilians in that military compound\u201d.<\/p>\n
But Lebanese Prime Minister Nawaf Salam said of the \u201cextremely dangerous\u201d, undermining efforts to establish stability in the south, \u201cThe seven martyrs in the Israeli strike on Ansar town were not \u2018military infrastructure\u2019, and the children and women killed were not military targets.\u201d<\/p>\n
Israel declared that one of the two victims in Deir al-Zahrani was a \u201csenior Hezbollah commander\u201d, Ali Muhammad Fakhr al-Din. The Israeli military later said it killed Abu Hassan Alaa, another senior commander.<\/p>\n
Israeli forces continued to dismantle homes and other sites as they establish the zone of occupation in the south. The latest operations were in and near Bint Jbeil, with the demolition of houses and firing of heavy machineguns towards residential areas.<\/p>\n
Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz promised more assaults in both Lebanon and Gaza, where the Israelis have expanded their occupation to almost 70% of the Strip.<\/p>\n
\u201cNo account on any front will remain unsettled,\u201d Katz posted. \u201cWe will forcefully defend our soldiers and citizens.\u201d<\/p>\n
Israel and the Lebanese Government on June 3 and have held several sets of talks brokered by the US. Hezbollah is not part of the agreement.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Aftermath of an Israeli air strike on the village of Ansar in southern Lebanon, August 15, 2026 (Wael…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":586265,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[85,46,43],"class_list":["post-586264","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-israel","tag-il","tag-israel","tag-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/586264","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=586264"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/586264\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/586265"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=586264"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=586264"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=586264"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
