HEZBOLLAH PREPARES FOR POTENTIAL ESCALATION WITH ISRAEL
February 28, 2024 – Hezbollah is gearing up for potential conflict following intelligence indicating Israel’s intention for a significant military operation post-Rafah activities. Nasrallah recently convened emergency meetings with the Iranian Quds Force commander in Beirut.
According to reports from The Arabic Post citing “special sources,” Iran has given Hezbollah the green light to escalate its military actions against Israel. This decision follows Hezbollah’s learning of Israel’s alleged plans for a major attack on Lebanon after its operations in Rafah.
Hezbollah’s Secretary General, Hassan Nasrallah, conferred with Quds Force commander Ismail Ka’ani, who reportedly endorsed Hezbollah’s response to Israel. The meeting, held in Beirut, aimed to address recent tensions between Hezbollah and the Revolutionary Guards, sparked by uncoordinated rocket launches resulting in casualties.
While past reports suggested Iranian leadership’s reluctance for Hezbollah’s large-scale engagement with Israel, senior Revolutionary Guards members, including Ka’ani, advocate for a robust Hezbollah response to Israeli provocations.
During the meeting, it was agreed that Iran would bolster Hezbollah’s arsenal with advanced weaponry, including ballistic missiles, drones, monitoring, and communication systems. The plan involves transferring these armaments from Iranian depots in Syria to Hezbollah in Lebanon.
Additionally, Russia is expected to contribute surveillance boats and anti-ship missiles to Hezbollah, signaling a strategic collaboration facilitated by Iran. This cooperation aims to enhance Hezbollah’s capabilities and strengthen the resistance axis led by Iran in the region.

Police search for missing nine-year-old Haymanot Kasau continues By JERUSALEM POST STAFF
“We are working very hard…to try to find some kind of clue to understand where Haymanot could be. We are scanning the absorption center and its surrounding area.”
FEBRUARY 28, 2024 – Avichai Kahana, Director General of the Aliyah and Integration Ministry, spoke on Wednesday on radio 103fm of the disappearance of nine-year-old Haymanot Kasau from Safed on Sunday, saying, “We are working very hard…to try to find some kind of clue to understand where Haymanot could be.
“We are scanning the absorption center and its surrounding area,” he said, referring to where the girl lives.
“All possibilities are being investigated,” he added, “the family has been investigated. According to the information the investigators gave us, the family is a normal family, with no conflict or special problem in the family…The police will ask all the children because children may be able to say something that others don’t say. But we don’t have any basis for saying that it is someone close and familiar to her.”
Possibility that Kasau may not be in the country
Addressing the possibility that Kasau may no longer be in the country, he said, “There is also the possibility that she is not in Israel. We are not ruling anything out.”
“Haymanot in Amharic means faith, we believe,” he concluded.
Kasau was last seen Sunday evening in Safed in Tzahal Street, after which she entered the absorption center and disappeared. Police forces and volunteers have been searching the center and its area, retrieving footage from security cameras and collecting testimonies from witnesses, according to Israeli media.
Kasau’s family immigrated to Israel three years ago. She is one of five siblings. Her father is Christian and does not live in Israel, while her mother is Jewish and resides in Safed.
US gov. opens investigation into Israeli company making Iron Dome parts By YEHUDA SHARONI
The US applied sanctions against the Finkelstein Industrial Company, which could have further implications for Israel’s economy and defense industry.
FEBRUARY 28, 2024 – In an unprecedented legal proceeding, the American government opened an investigation into Finkelstein Metals and is examining the government’s conduct, Maariv reported Wednesday morning. According to the American authorities, grants received by the company due to activities in a development zone constitute a prohibited government subsidy, and they allowed the company to sell its products in the US at inflated prices. The decision to open the investigation and sanctions against Finkelstein has puzzled Israeli officials.
The scope of Finkelstein’s activities in the US is minimal compared to the American complainants, and it holds less than 3% of the market share in the US. However, this is about 75% of its sales volume. The American administration’s claim also contradicts the trade agreement between the two countries, which has existed for decades.
Imposition of sanctions
Sanctions and customs duties have already been imposed on the company, which significantly impair its ability to operate regularly and may endanger the supplies required for the defense industry, such as the Iron Dome. As a result, the Foreign Affairs Ministry and the Association of Manufacturers entered the picture.
10 terrorists for every 1 hostage: All the details of the proposed prisoner swap Israel National News
Document reveals: Prisoner swap would see release of around 40 women, elderly, and ailing, in exchange for hundreds of convicted terrorists; six-week ceasefire.
Feb 24, 2024, 9:10 PM (GMT+2) – Channel 13 News revealed on Saturday evening a document with the principal points of a potential prisoner swap deal between Israel and the Hamas terror group.
Hamas has not yet said whether it would agree to such a deal.
The deal would include the release of around 40 hostages – women, elderly over age 50 or 60, and the ailing – in exchange for hundreds of convicted terrorists, as well as a six-week ceasefire.
The proposal also says that Israel will agree to release, in exchange for certain categories, more terrorists than were agreed upon until now. A foreign source said that Israel is willing to hold negotiations regarding the release of terrorists who were released in the 2011 Shalit deal and re-arrested following continued terror activity.
Under the proposal, Israel will also show significant flexibility on humanitarian issues, both regarding rebuilding Gaza and regarding allowing residents to return to northern Gaza. Israel will not, however, commit to ending the war.

According to Kan News, the agreement would include one day of ceasefire in exchange for every hostage released, as well as the release of hundreds of convicted terrorists at a rate of ten terrorists for every one hostage, and the return of Gazans to northern Gaza, and rebuilding Gaza.
Earlier on Saturday evening, a senior diplomatic source said, “We are still far from a deal, but Hamas has dropped some of its demands.”
Hamas official Abed Elrahman Shadid told a Qatari television station on Saturday that, “The discussions in Paris are nothing but self-negotiations, since Hamas is not part of them.”
“The statements by [Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin] Netanyahu send clear messages that Israel is not serious about its attempt to make progress on the matter of a prisoner swap. We are not a part or party to the meetings in Paris, and they did not report any progress to us.”

Netanyahu: We will approve plans for Rafah operation Hezki Baruch
PM Netanyahu says Cabinet will meet to approve plans for Rafah operation, evacuation of Gaza civilians.
Feb 24, 2024, 10:16 PM (GMT+2) – Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Saturday night spoke about the progress in talks for a prisoner swap deal to free the Israelis kidnapped to Gaza on October 7.
“We are working to achieve another deal to free our hostages, as well as eliminating Hamas battalions in Rafah,” Netanyahu said. “Therefore, I sent a delegation to Paris, and we will speak this evening about the next steps in the negotiations.”
Netanyahu also emphasized that Israel intends to operate in Rafah: “At the beginning of the week, I will gather the Cabinet to approve the plans for operational action in Rafah, including evacuating the civilian population from there. Only the integration of military pressure and firm negotiations will bring about a release of our hostages, the elimination of Hamas, and the achievement of all of the goals of the war.”

The proposed deal would see a first stage in which 35-40 hostages are released: women, children, the elderly, and the ailing (including young ailing). One report defined “elderly” as over 50, while another defined it as over 60.
In exchange for these hostages, Israel will agree to a ceasefire of several weeks, without committing to ending the war. The negotiators hope to utilize the ceasefire for negotiations regarding a more comprehensive deal which would extend the ceasefire.
The negotiators also hope to finalize the agreement within the coming two weeks, so that it takes effect before the start of Ramadan on March 10.
Meanwhile, reports say that hundreds of convicted terrorists, including those with blood on their hands, will be freed in exchange for the Israeli hostages.

Breaking: It seems that the hostage deal is close 𝗜𝗦𝗥𝗔𝗘𝗟 𝗟𝗜𝗩𝗘 𝗡𝗘𝗪𝗦
The Israeli delegation returned from the talks in Paris “there is progress in all parameters, an outline was reached that could be the basis for advanced negotiations”
According to sources, the gaps between the parties have narrowed significantly, the talks are over
• The release of about 40 hostages in exchange for hundreds of terrorists imprisoned in Israel
• A 6-week respite from fighting
All this is at the stage of talks and there is no agreement yet.
[Ed.: Our brave soldiers are mere cannon fodder for IINO’s military ‘leaders’. This kind of talk is suicidal!]
