After being fined $11,941 by the NFL for wearing “Hind Rajab” on his eye black, Houston Texans linebacker Azeel Al-Shaair did it again. During Sunday’s game against the Bengals, Al-Shaair wore “Wafaa Aqila” on his eye black, honoring a Palestinian girl who was killed alongside her father in an Israeli strike on their vehicle in Gaza earlier this month.

BREAKING: Iran's Army, with a total of 420,000 troops, says the majority of its ground force units are now deployed along the country's borders, with a heavy concentration on the Makran coast on the Gulf of Oman, including special forces, rapid-response, mechanized and artillery units, per Fars. Iran anticipates US ground forces may attempt to invade through the southern coastal cities, coming after Trump said Thursday he is approaching "a major turning point in the war with Iran" and has "a big decision coming up." The statement follows Iran placing all armed forces on Code 100, its highest alert level, last night.

BREAKING: Ukrainian drones have just struck Russia's Kapotnya oil refinery in Moscow, the city's only refinery with a capacity of around 280,000 barrels per day, in a raid on the capital this morning. This comes only six days after Trump claimed that Ukraine had agreed to stop hitting Russian energy targets, that Russia had agreed likewise, and that the world's diesel price rise "is mostly caused by the Russia/Ukraine War, not Iran."

⭕️ Several developments raised concerns over a possible new U.S. escalation against Iran on Saturday night: Trump returned to the White House early from Camp David, B-1 bombers were filmed departing Britain, and the State Department issued a new security alert for Americans across the Middle East. Iranian security services are reportedly on maximum alert, though no new U.S. military operation has yet been announced.

US bombers are either heading for Iran or Yemen. Iranian military is on high alert. As are all US embassies in the region. Whether the US strikes Iran or Yemen, it only confirms the continuation of the escalation cycle rather than the winding down of the war and debunks the Trump's stated strategy.

I don’t know if anyone still cares about what I say, but what is happening here has become a catastrophe in every sense of the word. Today was the first day of school for students in Gaza City after three years of war. It was supposed to be a day filled with joy, with children carrying their schoolbags, wearing new clothes, and returning to their classrooms. But the reality was completely different. I saw children without schoolbags, without shoes, without notebooks or pens, and some wearing worn-out clothes. I saw a school that was nothing more than a suffocating, extremely hot tent, without desks or chairs. The children use stones and cardboard boxes from aid supplies to create something to write on. There are no bathrooms for the children. There is not enough food or water. This is not simply a shortage of school supplies; this is a catastrophe affecting an entire generation. A child who is supposed to go to school to learn leaves school to stand in line for water, then waits in another line for food. Their lives have become a constant struggle to find water, food, and simply survive. How can a child learn under these conditions? How can we talk about the future of these children when the most basic necessities for education and life are not available? We are facing an entire generation at risk of being lost. Every day that passes without real intervention means another part of these children’s future is being lost. This is a catastrophe that cannot be allowed to pass in silence. Write about the children of Gaza, talk about their schools, and share what is happening to them. Do not let the world become accustomed to seeing children without a childhood.

While everyone is watching crude oil futures, the physical crude oil market is out of control. Shipping costs for crude oil are surging at a near-unprecedented rate. The cost to ship 2 million barrels of crude oil from West Africa to China is now up to $23.59/barrel. To put this into perspective, in July, the cost for the same shipment ~$6.50/barrel. That's a +258% surge in shipping costs in just 2 months. We are witnessing one of the largest global energy shocks ever recorded.

🚨Ansarallah announced that they targeted "sensitive sites" in Riyadh and Aramco facilities in Yanbu overnight using a large number of cruise missiles, ballistic missiles, and drones. Saudi Civil Defense alerts were triggered multiple times for 10 different cities and provinces during the attacks. NASA FIRMS data confirms that fuel storage at the Aramco Central Region Distribution facility was struck and a fire has been burning for several hours. Photos and videos have been circulating online, showing a large smoke column rising from the vicinity of King Khalid International Airport, where the Aramco distribution facility is located.

Two back-to-back Israeli air strikes hit Lebanon’s southern city of Nabatieh, while a third strike targeted an ambulance team responding to the attacks. At least 4,386 people have been killed and 12,400 injured since March 2, when Israel's war on Lebanon began. https://t.co/cCZGUbpfu2

Israeli occupation military did this to Najwa.. The world is still silent.. What would you do if this is your daughter?!

I took this photo moments ago on one of the streets of Gaza. Perhaps it alone captures the scale of the tragedy we are living through here. For more than three years, no reconstruction or building materials have entered Gaza City. So what people are doing today is an extraordinary act of resilience in the face of the impossible. They go to destroyed buildings and, among the rubble and twisted metal, use their bare hands and very basic tools to remove the stones trapped in the metal. After that, they collect the steel rods, straighten and prepare them, and then use them to build tents and temporary shelters. This work is incredibly difficult, exhausting, and extremely dangerous. People here are not doing this for comfort or to improve their lives. They are doing it because they have no other choice.

💥Another dilapidated building has collapsed over the heads of 23 residents in Al Sabra neighbourhood of the Gaza City.. Civil Defence: We rescued all the people trapped under the rubble, but their are more than 2,000 buildings with the same conditions due to previous Israeli bombing that host more than 35,000 displaced persons who don’t have anywhere to live except these ailing buildings..

Eyewitnesses in Gaza report that as the several-storey building collapsed Wednesday, a civil defense member ordered everyone at the scene to stay silent and stood on top of the building screaming at the top of his lungs, "Is there anyone who can hear me? Is anyone alive?" Then, a suffocating child from under the heavy concrete wheezed, "I can hear you, but I'm stuck between two ceilings. I can't speak or move. No one can see or hear me. I am dying of fear. No oxygen here. I will die." 3 hours later, the civil defense managed to retrieve his dead body.

BREAKING: Iran declares the Strait of Hormuz will stay closed until Trump and Netanyahu are removed from power, setting a new condition for reopening the Strait, per Zolqadr, advisor to the Supreme Leader. "Our fighters will not open the Strait of Hormuz until the criminal Trump and the bloodthirsty Netanyahu are pulled down from the throne of power," Zolqadr says, calling it "the first stage of the Iranian people's revenge." In August a senior adviser to Iran's chief negotiator said Iran would keep Hormuz closed until Trump's term ends on January 20, 2029. The condition has now moved from a date to Trump's removal from office.

I filmed this video just a short while ago at the beach in Gaza. I am in complete shock. Sewage is flooding into the sea! We are facing a massive environmental disaster in Gaza. Tens of thousands of liters of sewage are being pumped directly into the sea. The sea here is completely polluted, and there is no infrastructure or equipment to properly dispose of or treat the wastewater.

🚨Heartbreaking: Despite Israeli bombardment that has destroyed entire residential areas and turned roads into rubble, children in Gaza continue walking through the ruins every day in search of education and a chance at life. Schools and universities have been destroyed, but their pursuit of learning continues.

BREAKING: Iran struck a US-contracted oil tanker with US troops onboard around the Strait of Hormuz earlier this week, using 4 drones and at least 1 missile, with one projectile directly hitting the tanker and causing injuries including smoke inhalation, per two sources to Fox News. This is the first hit on an oil tanker carrying US troops since WW2, and one of the first times the US confirms US troops are onboard oil tankers. The US adds injured troops are being treated in a Gulf country.

The situation remains catastrophic. Entire families have been wiped out under the rubble, and dozens of children are still trapped with no one able to get them out. There isn’t even the equipment needed to remove the rubble and rescue them. People are trying with their bare hands, but the scale of the destruction is beyond what they can handle. The situation is devastating, especially knowing that there may still be children alive under the rubble while we don’t even have the basic equipment needed to save them.

I swear to you, what we are living through in Gaza has gone beyond all limits of reason and beyond what the human mind can comprehend. Tonight, a house near us collapsed. More than 16 people were killed, and more than 100 people are still missing at this moment. Six entire families are trapped under the rubble, and no one knows how many people may still be alive beneath it. The scene is unbearably painful. Children, women, and elderly people are trapped under the rubble, entire families waiting for someone to rescue them. Their voices may still be buried beneath these ruins, but there is not enough equipment to reach them. There are no machines capable of clearing the rubble, and no rescue teams equipped to deal with this scale of destruction. Time is passing, while people remain trapped beneath tons of concrete and debris. These children did nothing. They were simply trying to survive. They fled the tents searching for somewhere that could protect them, only to find themselves buried beneath the ruins of a home. How can anyone comprehend that a child could be spending their final hours trapped under the rubble, while no one is able to reach them? Gaza is collapsing before our eyes. Families are being buried, children are being left beneath the rubble, and the world is watching. Do something. Do not leave these people to die beneath the rubble in silence.

🚨BREAKING: In the dead of night, a structurally damaged building in Gaza collapsed on six families sheltering inside after it had been previously damaged by Israeli bombardment. They are now trapped beneath the rubble. Children’s screams can be heard in the darkness as desperate attempts to reach them continue, but rescuers are struggling to reach those buried alive.

🚨 Trump administration preparing $2.8 billion sale of 40,000 2,000-pound bombs to Israel The Washington Post reports the sale would be the largest of its kind in years. The MK-84 has been dropped by Israel hundreds of times on Gaza during the genocide, including in zones it designated safe for civilians, maiming and killing thousands of Palestinians. ▪️ An MK-84 explosion sends fragments thousands of feet and can level entire buildings, per a former US Army explosive-ordnance technician ▪️ The bomb was the only munition the Biden administration paused sending to Israel earlier in the genocide, over concern for Palestinian civilians; Trump reversed that freeze in his first month back in office, January 2025 ▪️ The $2.8 billion package, funded by US taxpayers, includes 20,000 MK-84s, 20,000 BLU-117s, and 20,000 I-2000 Penetrator warheads, and eclipses a $2.04 billion sale in 2025 that bypassed congressional review ▪️ It has been informally notified to Congress amid growing Democratic frustration over US support for Israel; in July, more than 100 House Democrats voted to end all aid to the country 🎥 A MK-84 2,000-pound bomb with a JDAM kit hitting the Khudair building in the Al-Zaytoun neighborhood of Gaza City in February.

According to an informed federal official, in the coming months the Trump administration plans to send a total of 40,000 Mark 84 and Blu-117 bombs to the government of Israel. Each bomb weighs 2,000 pounds. This appears to be the largest transfer of conventional explosive ordnance from the United States in modern history. How big is this shipment? It amounts to 40,000 tons of bombs. For perspective, the largest American air raid of World War Two was the Eighth Air Force’s attack on Berlin in March of 1945. Combined, the 2,023 Allied aircraft involved dropped about 3,000 tons of bombs. That’s 7.5 percent of what Trump is sending to Israel. That same month, March of 1945, the US Army Air Forces began the single most destructive bombing raid in human history, Operation Meetinghouse over Tokyo. More than 100,000 Japanese civilians were killed. By the end of that operation, the US had dropped 1,600 tons of bombs. That’s four percent of what Trump is sending to Israel. World War Two ended five months later, when the US dropped an atomic bomb on the city of Hiroshima. The shipment Trump is sending to Israel amounts to more than three times the destructive power of that nuclear explosion. There is no precedent for what the Trump administration is doing. Nor is there a justification. The government of Israel is not fighting World War Two, or even a war. It is engaged in periodic skirmishes with a guerrilla force in Lebanon, and it is working to exterminate an unarmed civilian population in Gaza. Neither front requires modern 2,000-pound bombs. An American-made Mark 84 has a destruction radius of half a mile. It releases a thermal wave the temperature of the surface of the sun. Within 100 feet of the explosion, rock melts and human flesh turns to vapor. The bomb collapses apartment buildings and leaves craters thirty-five feet deep. Until the war with Iran, the US military generally avoided using the Mark 84 in urban areas. It kills too many civilians. For the Netanyahu government, that’s been the upside. In the weeks after October 7, the IDF dropped nearly six hundred 2,000-pound bombs on densely populated areas in Gaza, including on more than 100 officially designated civilian evacuation zones. The slaughter was so grotesque and embarrassing that for a moment the Biden administration paused a shipment of Mark 84s. Those shipments quickly resumed under Trump. Now they’ve accelerated. It’s hard to overstate the scale of the crime the Israeli government is committing in Gaza. Over the last three years, more than a quarter-million Palestinians have been killed or wounded by Israeli forces there. The majority of them have been noncombatants: women, the elderly and tens of thousands of children. Many thousands more remain missing, presumably entombed under the rubble of 200,000 collapsed buildings. So far the Israelis have destroyed 92 percent of all homes in Gaza, and 34 of the 36 hospitals. By comparison, the 1945 Allied bombings of Dresden, now acknowledged as a war crime, destroyed about half of the city’s inhabited buildings. By any definition, what the Netanyahu government has done in Gaza is genocide. The 40,000 new bombs the Trump administration is sending will be used to do the same in Lebanon, and likely in other countries in the region. If you wanted to extend the Iran war into the indefinite future, this is exactly what you’d do. So far none of this has received public scrutiny. At some point, inevitably, it will be described in media accounts as an “arms sale.” It is not an arms sale. It is a gift, funded by American taxpayers through the Foreign Military Financing program, an arrangement designed to disguise welfare as capitalism: Congress appropriates money to the executive branch, which transfers the cash to Israel to “buy” American-made weapons, in this case from General Dynamics. Politicians claim this is a win for America. Most voters have no idea they paid for it. The bill in this case is about $3 billion. Add that to the $352 billion the US Treasury has transferred to Israel since 1951. How did this happen? The request for 40,000 new high-explosive civilian-killing bombs originated at the US Embassy in Jerusalem, which is run by Christian Zionist Ambassador Mike Huckabee and his aide David Milstein, who is the stepson of Fox News host Mark Levin. From there it moved to the State Department, where Marco Rubio enthusiastically approved it. At this point, only four more people need to sign off before the bombs ship to Israel: Senators Jim Risch and Jeanne Shaheen, the chairman and ranking member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee; and Congressmen Brian Mast and Gregory Meeks, the top two members of the equivalent House committee. All four are committed neocons. Collectively they’ve taken millions from the Israel lobby. In 2015, Brian Mast traveled to Israel to volunteer for the Israeli military. In 2023, Mast showed up in the House of Representatives wearing an IDF uniform. It’s hard to imagine any of them hesitating before sending more free bombs to Israel. Only public outrage can stop this.

It’s 4:50 p.m. (local time) Israel has just bombed a tent in Khan Younis. Earlier today, (11 a.m.)israel bombed another tent west of Khan Younis. At least five people, including children, were wounded. At noon, israel carried out a strike on a tent in Gaza City. At least ten people were injured. At 1:45 p.m., Israel bombed a house close to al-Shifa Hospital. One Palestinian was killed and several others were wounded.

The World Health Organization has officially announced that, starting September 19, 2026, it will stop supplying fuel to more than 20 hospitals and health centers in the Gaza Strip because the Israeli occupation forces are preventing fuel from entering the Strip. This means that most hospitals and health centers are at risk of shutting down completely, leaving thousands of patients, wounded people, and injured civilians alone to face death, deprived of even the most basic medical care and treatment. Imagine being a patient, a wounded person bleeding, or a child struggling with pain, only to have the hospital doors closed in your face because the fuel needed to power life-saving equipment is being prevented from entering. In Gaza, people are not being besieged by bombs and airstrikes alone. They are also being besieged by the denial of medical care and their right to survive. What patients, wounded people, and injured civilians are enduring here is not a passing hardship that the world can simply ignore. It is a humanitarian catastrophe threatening the lives of people whose only “crime” was wanting to live. What kind of world leaves a sick person to die because there is no fuel to keep their hospital running? What kind of conscience can remain silent in the face of this slow death.!!!

BREAKING: Repairs to Saudi Arabia's East-West oil pipeline will take far longer than a month due to a lack of spare parts, with the pumping infrastructure catastrophically damaged and at least 8 locations on the pipe hit, per initial reports citing sources inside Saudi Arabia. That leaves Saudi Arabia set to run out of crude oil stocks for export within five to seven days, taking around 4 million barrels per day, ~4% of global supply, off the market, per three industry sources to Reuters. Some repaired points were struck again, using up the spares and undoing the work. Yanbu has about a week of stocks left on the kingdom's only export route that does not pass through Hormuz.
