UK STABBING HORROR: Terror Charges Shock Nation

UK STABBING HORROR: Terror Charges Shock Nation

The Merseyside police in England have admitted they are “restricted” from sharing details about the Southport attack in July, which killed three young girls. Axel Muganwa Rudakubana, 18, faces terror-related charges alongside murder and attempted murder charges. Authorities found ricin and al Qaeda training materials at his property.

Rudakubana allegedly carried out a stabbing spree on July 29 during a Taylor Swift-themed dance class, killing Alice Dasilva Aguiar, Elsie Dot Stancombe, and Bebe King. Despite finding terror-related materials, police have not declared the incident as terrorism due to an undetermined motive.

The Crown Prosecution Service has guided the police on public statements to protect court proceedings’ integrity. This has sparked criticism over perceived secrecy by authorities following the Southport attack north of Liverpool.

Toby Young from the Free Speech Union suggested that withholding information aims to avoid prejudicing Rudakubana’s trial. The motive is expected to be a significant issue during legal proceedings.

RUSSIA’S Dangerous Plot: Planes to US and Canada at Risk

RUSSIA’S Dangerous Plot: Planes to US and Canada at Risk

Western security officials suspect Russia is plotting to plant EXPLOSIVES on planes bound for the United States and Canada. Two incendiary devices ignited at DHL logistics hubs in Germany and England, triggering a multinational investigation. Intelligence agencies found electric massagers with flammable substances were used as a “test run” for Russian sabotage efforts.

Poland’s National Prosecutor’s Office arrested four suspects linked to the DHL hub fires, charging them with “sabotage or terrorist operations.” The suspects allegedly tested parcel transfer channels intended for North America. Authorities have not disclosed their identities or nationalities.

Pawel Szota, head of Poland’s foreign-intelligence agency, attributed the plot to Russian spies. He warned that any attack would mark a “major escalation” of Russia’s sabotage against Western nations. This revelation underscores rising tensions between Russia and Western powers amid ongoing geopolitical conflicts.

TEENAGER CHARGED: AL Qaeda Manual and Deadly Ricin Found

TEENAGER CHARGED: AL Qaeda Manual and Deadly Ricin Found

Axel Muganwa Rudakubana, 18, is facing serious charges under the UK’s Terrorism Act. Authorities found an al Qaeda training manual and ricin poison at his home. These charges add to previous accusations of murder and attempted murder.

Rudakubana allegedly carried out a deadly knife attack at a Taylor Swift-themed dance class in Southport, UK. The attack killed three young girls and injured several others. This tragedy has shocked the community and raised concerns about safety at public events.

Tests confirmed that the substance found was ricin, but officials reassured the public that exposure risk was low. Dr. Renu Bindra from the UK Health Security Agency stated there was no evidence of public exposure to ricin during or after the incident.

The case continues as Rudakubana stays in custody following his court appearance in Liverpool on August 1, 2024. The investigation into this tragic event is ongoing as authorities seek justice for the victims and their families.

TEEN FACES Shocking BIO-Weapon Charges: Ricin and Terror Links Exposed

TEEN FACES Shocking BIO-Weapon Charges: Ricin and Terror Links Exposed

Axel Muganwa Rudakubana, 18, now faces serious terrorism and bio-weapon charges on top of murder and attempted murder accusations. He was arrested after a knife attack at a Taylor Swift-themed party in Southport that left three young girls dead. The new charges involve making ricin and having an Al-Qaeda training manual.

Merseyside Police found evidence in Rudakubana’s home leading to these additional charges. Ricin is a deadly poison that could be used as a weapon if refined. Despite this, UK Health Security Agency officials assured the public there’s no risk from the ricin discovered at his property.

Authorities stressed these terrorism-related charges do not mean the Southport attack was an act of terror. Counter Terrorism Policing hasn’t labeled it as such since motive must be proven for it to be considered terrorism.

Merseyside Police addressed public worries about transparency and rumors regarding withheld information, promising they aim to avoid affecting any trial while staying open with communities. They confirmed no information is being purposely kept from the public.

GERMANY FOILS Isis Plot: Arrest Sparks Security Alert

GERMANY FOILS Isis Plot: Arrest Sparks Security Alert

German authorities have arrested a Libyan man suspected of planning an attack on the Israeli embassy in Berlin. The arrest happened in the Bernau suburb, stopping a potential terror act. The suspect intended to flee to Sankt Augustin and eventually leave Germany after carrying out the attack.

Israel’s ambassador to Germany, Ron Prosor, praised German authorities for keeping the embassy safe. He emphasized that “Muslim anti-Semitism” fuels global terrorism and endangers embassy staff. Local Interior Minister Herbert Reul warned those threatening Jewish life in Germany: "We are on your trail!

This arrest follows a recent shooting by an 18-year-old Austrian citizen of Bosnian descent at the Israeli consulate in Munich. The attack also targeted a nearby museum dedicated to National Socialism documentation. These events highlight ongoing threats against Jewish institutions in Europe.

IDF STRIKES Hezbollah: Major Airstrikes Rock Lebanon

IDF STRIKES Hezbollah: Major Airstrikes Rock Lebanon

On Saturday, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) launched major airstrikes against Hezbollah in southern Lebanon. The IDF targeted 400 sites, including rocket launchers ready for activation.

The IDF reported hitting about 290 targets with thousands of launcher barrels and other terrorist infrastructure. Later in the day, another series of strikes hit around 110 Hezbollah targets.

Hezbollah responded by firing at Israeli communities in the north. Between 6:24 and 7:00 AM, about 85 projectiles crossed into Israeli territory. Some were intercepted while others caused fires in Kiryat Bialik, Moreshet, and other areas.

Later sirens sounded again as approximately 20 more projectiles were identified crossing from Lebanon into Israel’s Jezreel Valley area. Most were intercepted or fell in open areas without causing injuries. The IDF remains committed to dismantling Hezbollah’s capabilities.

NETANYAHU VOWS Swift Justice After Hezbollah Attack Kills Children

The Israeli response to Hezbollah’s rocket attack in Lebanon is imminent after the group targeted a children’s soccer field, killing 12 young people. Early Monday, Israel Defense Forces (IDF) reportedly executed a drone strike in southern Lebanon, resulting in the deaths of two Hezbollah terrorists. The IDF has not commented on the strike.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu held a three-hour cabinet meeting on Sunday, authorizing him and his defense minister to determine the “manner and timing” of a military response. Danny Danon, Israel’s new ambassador to the United Nations, told “Fox and Friends” that Israel’s response will be “swift, harsh and painful,” but clarified there are no intentions for a full war.

Netanyahu visited Majdal Shams on Monday and announced that Israel’s response to the massacre “will come and it will be severe.” He expressed solidarity with the Druze Israeli community, emphasizing their shared grief. U.S. Secretary of State Antony J. Blinken spoke with Israeli President Isaac Herzog about the situation on Monday as well.

TERRORIST ATTACK Foiled: Southern Israel on High Alert

TERRORIST ATTACK Foiled: Southern Israel on High Alert

Security has been tightened in southern Israel since Hamas-led terrorists killed around 20 people on Oct. 7, sparking the Gaza war. On Monday, a suspect arrived at the entrance of Netiv HaAsara and threatened members of the community’s rapid response team with a knife. The team opened fire, stopping the attack.

Israeli Police are investigating the attempted terror attack near the Gaza border. The Israeli military confirmed one person was killed after trying to stab security forces. Magen David Adom (MDA) paramedics reported that no one was physically injured, though a 61-year-old woman suffered from shock.

The terrorist was identified as a Canadian citizen who accused the IDF of killing civilians in Gaza. The IDF confirmed that he came from within Israel rather than crossing from Gaza. This incident highlights ongoing tensions and security challenges in the region.

IRANIAN-BACKED Houthis Attack Ship in Gulf of Aden, Injure Mariner

The Iranian-backed Houthis launched two anti-ship cruise missiles, striking the M/V Verbena in the Gulf of Aden off Yemen. The attack set the ship on fire and severely injured one civilian mariner. U.S. Central Command reported that the mariner was flown to another ship for medical treatment by a U.S. helicopter based on the USS Philippine Sea.

The M/V Verbena, a Palauan-flagged, Ukrainian-owned, and Polish-operated bulk cargo carrier, was en route from Malaysia to Italy carrying wood when it was attacked. Central Command confirmed that the crew is still fighting fires on board. This incident marks another escalation in the Houthis’ campaign amid the Israel-Hamas conflict.

Earlier reports from British military’s United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations center and private security firm Ambrey indicated that a vessel had been attacked and caught fire after making a distress call about being struck by a missile. The Houthis typically delay claiming responsibility for such attacks by hours or even days.

This attack follows another incident where Houthis launched a boat-borne bomb against a commercial ship in the Red Sea on Wednesday. The rebels have been targeting shipping throughout this strategic corridor as part of their ongoing conflict with a Saudi-led coalition since seizing Yemen’s capital nearly ten years ago.

CYBER ATTACK Devastates London NHS Hospitals

CYBER ATTACK Devastates London NHS Hospitals

A ransomware attack by the group Qilin has crippled Synnovis, a key pathology lab service provider for several National Health Service hospitals. Ciaran Martin, former chief of the National Cyber Security Centre, called it one of the most serious attacks in the U.K. due to its disabling effect on operations.

The attack affected King’s College and Guy’s and St Thomas’ hospital trusts, impacting multiple hospitals and clinics across south London. A memo to staff labeled it a “critical incident,” noting significant disruptions to services like blood transfusions and leading to canceled or redirected procedures.

Synnovis Chief Executive Mark Dollar stated that they are still trying to understand what happened but offered no further comment. The incident has been reported to police as investigations continue into this severe disruption of healthcare services in London.

Ransomware attacks involve criminals using malware to paralyze computer systems and demanding money for their release. These attacks are highly disruptive and costly, affecting various sectors including healthcare, with most perpetrators operating from former Soviet states beyond Western legal reach.

British lawmaker killed

CYBERATTACKS Unleash CHAOS on UK Parliament: Lawmakers’ Privacy Invaded

Conservative MP Luke Evans was hit by a cyberattack, receiving unwanted explicit messages. He described the attack as “cyber flashing and malicious communications.” Another member of Parliament, William Wragg, was tricked into giving out colleagues’ contact details after being approached on a dating app.

This is part of a wider phishing scam targeting politicians, their teams, and journalists. The attackers send flirty messages to get personal details. This method is called “spear phishing,” because it aims at specific people or groups.

The news outlet Politico revealed that several MPs and political figures got messages from someone pretending to be someone else. The scammers used fake profiles with names like “Charlie” or “Abi” to trick their victims.

These incidents show big security weaknesses in how British lawmakers communicate. There are growing worries about how well their sensitive information is protected against these threats.

US Troops UNDER ATTACK: Iran-Backed Militias Blamed for Deadly Drone Strike

A devastating drone attack in Jordan, which tragically claimed the lives of three U.S. service members, has been attributed to the Islamic Resistance in Iraq, an organization supported by Iran. The assault also resulted in injuries for at least 40 troops stationed at Tower 22, a covert base vital to American operations in Syria. This alarming incident unfolds as President Joe Biden weighs his retaliatory options.

In a stern warning, Iran vowed to “respond decisively” if the U.S. takes action against Tehran for the attack. John Kirby, spokesman for the National Security Council, confirmed that this premeditated strike was orchestrated by the Islamic Resistance in Iraq and included involvement from militant group Kataib Hezbollah.

Kirby dismissed an announcement from Kataib Hezbollah about halting military operations against occupation forces as untrustworthy. He stressed that they are not alone in launching attacks on U.S forces. Amid this escalating situation, President Biden is set to attend a solemn ceremony honoring fallen troops at Dover Air Force Base this Friday.

Additional American strikes could potentially intensify tensions within an already unstable region struggling with Israel’s ongoing conflict with Hamas in Gaza since

CHEMICAL ATTACK Accusations at Columbia: Israeli Soldiers in the Eye of Storm

CHEMICAL ATTACK Accusations at Columbia: Israeli Soldiers in the Eye of Storm

Columbia University finds itself in a storm after two student groups, “Students for Justice in Palestine” and “Jewish Voice for Peace”, levelled accusations against Israeli soldiers. The soldiers, who are also students at the university, were accused of using a “chemical weapon” known as “skunk spray” during a protest. Pending an investigation into these allegations, the accused individuals have been temporarily barred from campus.

The accusing student groups had previously faced suspension by the university due to repeated violations of protest policies. Critics argue that Columbia has not been stringent enough when it comes to enforcing these suspensions. An unnamed student voiced their disappointment to the Jewish Telegraphic Agency saying: “The university is turning a blind eye...it’s just disappointing.”

Despite no arrests being made following a police report on the alleged chemical attack, protests continued on campus. Former U.S. Ambassador to Israel David M Friedman expressed his dismay on Twitter: “Permitting a protest right in the middle of your campus advocating for Israel’s destruction by violent revolution? I am sickened by this!”

This incident has ignited heated discussions about balancing free speech rights with safety concerns on college campuses across America.

UKRAINIAN Drone Attacks SPARK Terror in Russia Ahead of Presidential Election

UKRAINIAN Drone Attacks SPARK Terror in Russia Ahead of Presidential Election

The city of Klintsy, located near the Ukrainian border, became the latest victim of Ukraine’s escalated drone strikes. Four oil reservoirs were set ablaze following an attack by a Ukrainian drone. This incident marks an intensification in Ukraine’s efforts to disrupt Russian normalcy ahead of its March 17 presidential election.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has vowed to increase strikes on Russian targets this year. With Russia’s air defenses primarily focused on occupied regions within Ukraine, remote Russian locations are becoming more susceptible to long-range Ukrainian drones.

The fear induced by these drone attacks forced the Russian city of Belgorod to call off its Orthodox Epiphany celebrations — marking a first for major public events in Russia. Concurrently, there are reports that a gunpowder mill in Tambov was targeted by Ukrainian drones. However, local officials refute any claims of operational disruptions.

In another development aligning with this trend, the Russian Defense Ministry reported intercepting a Ukrainian drone near St. Petersburg Oil Terminal last Thursday. These escalating attacks underline the mounting tension between Ukraine and Russia.

LEBANON STRIKES: Hezbollah’s Deadly Missile Attack Rattles Israel Amidst Gaza Conflict

A lethal anti-tank missile, launched from Lebanon, claimed the lives of two civilians in northern Israel this past Sunday. This alarming incident has ignited concerns over a potential second front emerging amidst the ongoing clash between Israel and Hamas.

This strike marks a grim milestone — the 100th day of a war that has tragically taken nearly 24,000 Palestinian lives and forced approximately 85% of Gaza’s population from their homes. The conflict was sparked by an unexpected Hamas incursion into southern Israel last October, leading to around 1,200 fatalities and roughly 250 hostages.

The region remains on edge as daily fire exchanges persist between Israel and Lebanon’s Hezbollah group. Meanwhile, Iranian-backed militias target U.S. interests in Syria and Iraq as Yemen’s Houthi rebels threaten international shipping lanes.

Hezbollah’s leader, Hassan Nasrallah, remains defiant vowing to persist until a Gaza cease-fire is established. His declaration comes as countless Israelis evacuate northern border regions due to escalating aggression.

Norwegian Tanker UNDER SIEGE: Houthi’s Shocking Protest Against Israel

Norwegian Tanker UNDER SIEGE: Houthi’s Shocking Protest Against Israel

The Houthi movement in Yemen, an ally of Iran, announced on Tuesday that they targeted a Norwegian oil and chemical tanker with a rocket. This recent attack is their latest form of protest against Israel’s actions in Gaza. The ship, Strinda, was hit after its crew “ignored all warning calls,” said Houthi military spokesperson Yehia Sareea.

Sareea also stated that the Houthis will continue to disrupt ships heading towards Israeli ports. Their demand? They want Israel to permit the entry of food and medical supplies into the Gaza Strip — over 1,000 miles away from their stronghold in Sanaa.

The attack on Strinda took place about 60 nautical miles north of the Bab al-Mandab Strait — an essential sea lane for global oil shipments. The U.S. military’s Central Command confirmed on Tuesday that an anti-ship cruise missile “launched from a Houthi-controlled area of Yemen” struck the Strinda.

RED SEA Chaos: Iranian-Backed Houthis Unleash Missile Attacks on Commercial Ships, US Destroyer Strikes Back

RED SEA Chaos: Iranian-Backed Houthis Unleash Missile Attacks on Commercial Ships, US Destroyer Strikes Back

Central Command has verified four missile attacks on three commercial ships in the Red Sea. One of these was an Israeli-owned vessel. The Houthis in Yemen initiated the attacks, but they were “fully backed by Iran,” according to a statement released Sunday. The USS Carney, a U.S. destroyer, retaliated by shooting down two drones.

The assaults started at 9:15 a.m. local time when the Carney detected an anti-ship missile launched from Houthi-controlled areas in Yemen at the M/V Unity Explorer. This ship is flagged by Bahamas and U.K owned with crew members from two nations. However, USNI News and Balticshipping.com report that Tel Aviv-based Ray Shipping owns it.

Around noon, Carney responded to and shot down a drone also launched from Houthi-controlled areas in Yemen. Central Command stated that it was uncertain whether the drone specifically targeted CARNEY or not but confirmed no damage to the U.S vessel or injuries to personnel.

These attacks pose a direct threat to international commerce and maritime security,“ Central Command said in its statement. It added that it would consider appropriate responses ”in full coordination with its international allies and partners.

Dr. Mark T. Esper ><noscript><img  decoding=

ESPER SLAMS US Response to Iranian Attacks: Is Our Military Strong Enough?

Former Defense Secretary Mark Esper has openly criticized the U.S. military’s handling of attacks by Iranian proxies on American forces in Syria and Iraq. He considers the response insufficient, despite being targeted over 60 times in just a month by these proxies. These forces are stationed in the region with a mission to ensure ISIS’s lasting defeat, and approximately 60 troops have been injured as a result of these relentless attacks.

Despite launching three sets of airstrikes against facilities used by these proxies, their aggressive actions persist. “Our response hasn’t been forceful or frequent enough... there’s no deterrence if they strike back immediately after we strike them,” Esper shared his concerns with the Washington Examiner.

Esper advocates for more strikes and expanding targets beyond just ammunition and weapons facilities. However, Pentagon deputy spokeswoman Sabrina Singh stands by their actions, claiming that U.S.'s attacks have significantly weakened these militia groups’ access to weapons.

In recent weeks, U.S troops targeted a training facility and safe house last Sunday, struck a weapons storage facility on Nov 8th, and hit another weapons storage facility along with an ammunition storage area in Syria on Oct 26th.

Pro-Palestinian Protesters Wipe Out Images of Hamas Hostages: A SHOCKING Act of Erasure

Pro-Palestinian Protesters Wipe Out Images of Hamas Hostages: A SHOCKING Act of Erasure

A startling incident involving pro-Palestinian protesters has come to light. They were caught on video removing posters of innocent victims from a recent Hamas terrorist attack. The video features Lucia Mendoza, a Diversity, Equity, Inclusion VP at her sorority. This act has sparked outrage and raised questions about the root cause of such dehumanization.

The October 7 Hamas attack resulted in the capture of at least 240 hostages from diverse nationalities. Among these hostages were vulnerable individuals like the elderly and infants. Supporters of the Palestinian cause are now under fire for allegedly trying to erase these victims’ images.

When confronted about this unsettling trend by NBC News’ Peter Alexander, Jean-Pierre could not provide a clear answer. This failure to defend free speech and innocent victims’ rights has triggered widespread criticism across social media platforms.

This incident highlights an increasing worry about supporters’ potential moral responsibility for atrocities committed in their cause’s name. As these events continue to unfold, it’s crucial that all parties involved maintain respect for human rights and dignity.

BRUTAL HAMAS Attack on Israeli Music Festival: An Unprecedented Horror Revealed

This past weekend, the Supernova music festival in southern Israel fell victim to a savage attack by Hamas militants. This brutal assault marked one of the first targets and resulted in widespread devastation across several towns. The attack led to at least 260 deaths, making it one of the most deadly civilian incidents in Israel’s history.

ABC News collected accounts from survivors and relatives of the missing to reconstruct this chilling event. They scrutinized and authenticated witness videos as well as security footage. Numerous festival attendees also contributed their experiences and original cell phone videos.

The pandemonium erupted just after sunrise at 6:40 a.m., signaled by initial rocket trails streaking across the sky. As crowds tried to escape by car, roads quickly became jam-packed and impassable. One witness reported close-range fire from Hamas militants while fleeing via the main road north—a claim backed up by images of their bullet-riddled vehicle.

ABC News has confirmed video evidence that emphasizes the intentional nature of this attack on Supernova. This episode marks a bleak moment in Israel’s history, spotlighting an escalating conflict with potentially wide-ranging implications.

ISRAEL STRIKES Hezbollah: Lebanon Rocked By Explosions

Israel’s defense minister, Yoav Gallant, has announced a “new phase” of the war against Hezbollah militants in Lebanon. Gallant praised the army and security agencies for their impressive results and emphasized the need for courage as military resources shift northward.

Lebanon is reeling from mysterious explosions targeting electronic devices like walkie-talkies and solar equipment. These incidents follow previous pager explosions that killed nine people and injured 300, heightening fear among the Lebanese population.

Explosions disrupted a funeral in Beirut for Hezbollah members killed by earlier pager blasts, causing further damage in Sidon. The strategy appears aimed at destabilizing Hezbollah’s communication infrastructure and creating chaos within its ranks.

The situation remains tense with potential for broader regional conflict growing. As both sides prepare for intensified warfare, the humanitarian impact on civilians looms large, highlighting the urgent need for diplomatic intervention to prevent further bloodshed.
