the SDF-controlled village of Al-Shahabat came under violent bombardment by rocket launchers and artillery troops of Iranian-backed militias, which resulted in the injury of several civilians.

SOHR sources have just reported that a little girl was killed and three other civilians of a single family were injured in artillery fire by Iranian-backed militias stationed in Al-Ma’amel mountain on the SDF-controlled village of Jadidat Ekaydat in Deir Ezzor countryside.

Arguably the non-PKK Kurds / Democratic Socialist state of Rojava (AANES). But they aren't an active part of the current situation.

Best case scenario for Syrian citizens, is if the Turkey-backed Sunni Islamist forces and the Shia Islamist / Assad regime / Russian / Iranian forces considerably dwindle each other's numbers and capabilities, with the Kurds swooping in at the end to help turn the rest of Syria into a Democratic Socialist state.

The airstrikes, ground bombardment and limited resistance by regime forces left 20 members of HTS dead.

Meanwhile, HTS and factions participating in “Deterrence of aggression” operation advanced into neighbourhoods of Aleppo city and took control of the majority of the city, government centres and prisons.

Yesterday, a Russian fighter jet launched an airstrike with three missiles on military headquarters that included a group of members of the “Joint Forces” of the Turkish-backed “National Army”, on the outskirts of Marae’ City in northern Aleppo countryside, where four members were killed and several military cars and the headquarters were destroyed.

The opposition fighters have said the campaign was in response to stepped-up strikes in recent weeks against civilians by the Russian and Syrian air force on areas in rebel-held Idlib, and to preempt any attacks by the Syrian army.

Opposition sources in touch with Turkish intelligence said Turkey, which supports the rebels, had given a green light to the offensive.

...they were chased by “Arab youths” who shouted “free Palestine” and ‘f---ing Jews” before threatening them with knives and sticks.

Earlier in November, a fan of Makkabi Berlin who was wearing the club’s scarf had to be taken to hospital after a man in a café asked him whether he was Jewish and then punched him in the face.

Just for you - https://www.irishtimes.com/world/middle-east/2024/10/01/israel-and-us-promise-sharp-response-to-iranian-missile-attack/

The only reported fatality was a Palestinian man who was killed when a rocket hit the West Bank town of Jericho.

It will mostly be Patriot, David's Sling and Arrow according to the Wikipedia article on their defense systems.
I think Barak is mostly for Navy assets?

Speaking with reporters at Majdal Shams, Israeli military spokesperson Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari said that forensics showed the rocket was an Iranian-made Falaq-1.

Hezbollah had earlier announced firing a Falaq-1 missile on Saturday, saying it had targeted an Israeli military headquarters.

I mean.. It's even in the name there. RAF is Royal Air Force.

The sovereign base areas of Akrotiri and Dhekelia is a British Overseas Territory. Cyprus has no sovereignty over that area.
If that's Hezbollah's issue, they should've threatened the UK.

Adding to the other comment, Cyprus has also welcomed tens of thousands of Lebanese refugees over the years since the 80s, and lobbied the EU to financially assist Lebanon.

The "Plenty of articles like those here." was a reply to the first part of your post.

Yeah, it's receiving coverage because there has been a serious spike in hatred and violence specifically towards Jews since the 7th of October. Not just in France.

And the rape was specifically because she's a Jew. Like the other recent case of a French Jewish woman who was raped specifically because she's a Jew.

Plenty of articles like those here.
And plenty of people denying there's any rise in hatred and violence towards Jews.

"Un deuxième mineur aurait confié aux policiers avoir frappé la jeune fille au motif qu’elle aurait eu de mauvaises paroles à propos de la Palestine."

A politician who got the 36th position in the Likud list 10 years ago.
The party he founded after that didn't get even 1 mandate.
