Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

MODERATORS
I've heard they struck an airfield and an offshore platform. Israel has outlawed publishing of videos that strike military targets, so its subjects are understandably reluctant to post footage if that if it exists.
Nonethess, I've heard unconfirmed reports about potential strikes on an Israeli airfield. We'll want to await announcements by resistance parties before taking this as fact.
Generally, the resistance has not pursued a strategy of targeting civilians or to maximize casualty rates, so a low death count from a strike by a nation that has very precise targeting capabilities is expected.
Also, Iran has announced that this is only the first wave of their retaliation
I don't doubt this is true, but I'd be curious to know how it is being enforced in the modern cell-phone age.
I guess we'll see how far Israel can stretch itself. If this blunts their incursion into Lebanon, that would be a positive sign. But I can't imagine they're not going to retaliate in turn, given the current pattern of behavior from Tel-Aviv.
