Egypt Erupts for Gaza: Tahrir Square Protests First In a Decade Protesters reclaimed Tahrir Square for the first time in a decade last night, expressing solidarity with the people of Gaza. Egyptian authorities detained 43 demonstrators. Why Is This Major? Tahrir Square is a significant public plaza in downtown Cairo. It gained prominence during the 2011 Egyptian revolution against President Hosni Mubarak, a pivotal moment in the Arab Spring. When the Government was toppled due to the protests, Tahrir Square became synonymous with major political change. Yesterday marked the first time since 2013 that protestors have reclaimed Tahrir Square following the Arab Spring.

🚨FOOTAGE: HAMAS DEFENDS OCT 7 ATTACK ON ISRAEL "THE EXPLOSION WAS A MATTER OF TIME" 🎙️While I agree with the horrible living conditions in Gaza, and the lack of freedom, there is NO EXCUSE for what happened on October 7th. And according to Biden, everything they said in the video is a LIE. Biden himself said: "Hamas' attack on Israel was aimed at disrupting Normalization of Ties between Israel and Saudi Arabia" If true, then Iran ASKED HAMAS to attack Israel, leading to a bloody ongoing war. And who loses? Innocent civilians and children caught in this geopolitical proxy war.

🇮🇱🇵🇸 Israeli politician blows up after her colleague said All Children Are Equal. She responds: "There is no symmetry, and the children of Gaza brought it upon themselves." I respect the pain Israel is going through after the horrors of Hamas. And I respect the other politician in the video who stated "A Child is a Child" (definitely not the one who disagreed) The world should never forget: Palestinians, ESPECIALLY CHILDREN, are NOT Hamas. I'm sure everyone agrees with this, even in the toughest of times.

🚨BREAKING: RUSSIA ADVISES AGAINST TRAVELING TO LEBANON | NEW WAR? The Lebanese MEA Airlines also cancelled half of all flights, and moved 60% of their aircrafts to Turkey for 'insurance' reasons. I've received UNCONFIRMED reports that Israel has communicated with the Lebanese airport, threatening to strike if Hezbollah does not stop the attacks on the Israeli border. These reports, from airport employees, are still UNCONFIRMED. This comes after an escalation of clashes on the Israeli Lebanon border, which is ongoing: TODAY'S CLASHES ON LEBANON BORDER: - Hezbollah launched an attack on IDF posts along the Israeli Lebanese border using anti-tank guided missiles and gunfire, striking five Israeli sites in Shebaa Farms and Kfar Shuba - Israeli artillery bombed the vicinity of Kafr Shuba, as well as the farms of Bastra and Shanouh in southern Lebanon. MOSCOW'S FOREIGN MINISTRY: 'The situation in the Middle East is heating up. We strongly recommend that Russian citizens refrain from traveling to the region, especially to Israel, Lebanon, Jordan and the Palestinian territories' ANALYSIS: My concern of Hezbollah joining the war, dragging Lebanon into the conflict, is rising by the day. If this happens, the risks for a much larger regional conflict with global implications goes up drastically. In yesterday's space, we had an Iraqi diplomat explain why he believes Iran will join the war through proxies if Israel enters Gaza, arguing that the U.S has been trying to convince Israel to change course. Unfortunately, that ship has sailed. The ball is in Iran/Hezbollah's court. Can they accept the end of Hamas, or will they join the war and support their ally?
