In a stadium in Gaza, Palestinian prisoners are taken back, including some children. Hezbollah warns/threatens Italy for taking part in the coalition of evil, following the dispatch of the Navy frigate Vittorio Fasan to the Red Sea in support of the American Prosperity Guardian mission.

The Iranian general Hossein Salamis incites the crowd in southern Lebanon after the killing of the Iranian general Seyed Razi Mousavi, which took place days ago in Damascus. Salami speaks of harsh revenge with the hope of erasing Israel from the face of the earth.
One of the leaders of Hezbollah, Naim Qassem calls for a coalition of good made up of Lebanon, Iran, Yemen, Iraq and Palestinians to face the coalition of evil made up of the United States, Israel, France, Great Britain, Germany and Italy.
It is the first time that Italy has been directly cited, guilty of having sent its frigate Vittorio Fasan to the area of military operations in the Red Sea. Our frigate was supposed to leave next February to join the EU mission called Atalanta: she would only have brought forward her departure in consideration of the emergency in that stretch of sea, an essential hub for global commercial maritime traffic. There are several Italian shipping companies affected by the crisis which affects the route which from the Suez Canal, crossing the Bab-el-Mandeb canal, connects the Indian Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea.
The conditions do not lead to détente, on the contrary the winds of war are blowing more threateningly. Yesterday never had so many missiles and drones been launched towards Israel from Hezbollah positions.
The Shiite Islamic world is in turmoil because the killing of the Pasdaran leader Mousavi has been compared to the killing of Iranian general Qassem Soleimani in 2020 at the hands of the Americans. Hezbollah will probably push their attacks deeper and deeper across the border. Meanwhile, Israel has intensified attacks in Lebanon and Syria near Damascus.
Tel Aviv is also thinking of returning the more than 100 Israelis evacuated from the kibbutzim to the Gaza Strip. However, the ban on residence remains in the villages near the border with Lebanon, targeted by Hezbollah attacks.
Meanwhile, peace negotiations are going slowly. In these hours a Hamas delegation will be in Cairo even if there is no hope for the Egyptian-Qatari peace proposal.
Prime Minister Netanyahu has changed Foreign Minister, raising internal criticism while the executive's proposal for the construction of an underground wall, over 13 km long and one hundred meters deep, to be built on the Rafah border with Egypt is circulating. A proposal which, however, does not please the Egyptians.
