Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi says Israel “will certainly pay” for the killing in Syria of a senior general with the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. “Without a doubt, this action is another sign of frustration, helplessness and incapacity of the usurping Zionist regime [Israel] in the region,” Raisi said in a statement. Sayyed Razi Mousavi held the rank of major general and was in charge of a “resistance support unit” in Syria, Iran said. Sources told Al Jazeera three Israeli missiles hit the building where he was staying, killing him instantly. Al Jazeera’s Ali Hashem is in Naqoura in Southern Lebanon for more about this.

This year, Bethlehem is sombre and quiet. There is no Christmas tree and there are no holiday lights or tourists to see them. Instead, the city of Jesus’s birth – which is in the middle of a war zone – is marking Christmas with a powerful and poignant message: solidarity with Palestine. The Holy Family Cave is a sculpture that depicts a harrowing tableau: a bombed-out version of the traditional nativity cave, which many Christians traditionally believe is where Jesus was born in Bethlehem. It is the site of the Church of the Nativity in Bethlehem. Al Jazeera’s Nida Ibrahim reports from Bethlehem. Subscribe to our channel: http://bit.ly/AJSubscribe Follow us […]

Over the recent hours, several Israeli air raids targeted the hills overlooking Naqoura. Simultaneously, Hezbollah carried out attacks in the morning with no reported casualties. Israel aims to push Hezbollah beyond the Litani River, approximately 20km from the border, focusing the conflict in that area. Seizing this opportunity, Israel is striking Hezbollah’s infrastructure developed since the 2006 war. Concurrently, Hezbollah strives to target Israeli intelligence apparatus on the border, including communication devices, cameras, and infantry.

Gideon Levy, a columnist for Israeli Haaretz newspaper, says the rise in Israeli soldiers’ death toll in Gaza has not made much of an impact on Israeli public opinion, the majority of which support continuing the war. “Thirteen soldiers [killed] is a hell of a price for Israel but 600 people in Gaza were killed this weekend,” Levy told Al Jazeera. Israeli army says 152 Israeli soldiers have so far been killed since the ground assault in Gaza began on October 27. Levy said he is “quite surprised” that pressure on Netanyahu has been “limited” so far. “There is pressure concerning only one issue – releasing the hostages. Everything else […]

Chris Gunness says what’s unfolding in Gaza is “an American-Israeli genocide – it’s not just an Israeli genocide”. “Just as America provides Israel with $4bn of military support per annum, it’s also – as we’ve seen tonight – providing Israel with diplomatic and political cover to continue with a genocide which is marked by the wholesale and industrial ignoring of international humanitarian law,” Gunness told Al Jazeera. He added that Israeli statements following the passage of the Security Council resolution make it clear the country plans to retain control of what goes into Gaza. “It’s clear that [Israel] as it’s done in the past, [intends] to have a veto over […]
