We know what’s coming and we are prepared.
— 🇮🇱/🇵🇸/🇱🇧 22nd day of the war, October 28th, status update and major events:
— Due to a total blackout in Gaza, we basically know nothing. However, it is clear that today's airstrikes on the Gaza strip were extremely intense and unprecedented. Humanitarian situation is still terrible.
– IDF Spokesman Hagari repeated that Northern Gaza residents should immediately relocate South while they still can, and warned that 'intense hostilies' are to come.
– Sporadic rocket attacks from Gaza into central and Southern Israel, but nothing major. Most Israeli settlements near Gaza have been completely evacuated at this point, so casualties are unlikely.
– Since last night, Israeli tanks and mechanized infantry units have managed to advance about 100-200 meters into North and North-Eastern Gaza on the outskirts of Beit Lahia and Beit Hanoun. All reliable reports indicate that resistance is harsh, with Al-Qassam claiming that one of their fighters has single-handedly destroyed three IDF vehicles.
– Hezbollah targeted the IDF sites in Risha, Al-Jardah, Al-Abad, Al-Marj, Abu Dajjaj and Zarit with ATGMs, striking IDF troops and destroying enemy observation & surveillance equipment.
– As usual, the IDF shelled South Lebanon with artillery, and the IAF carried out targeted drone strikes against Hezbollah infrastructure.
– Netanyahu gave a speech, saying that this war is Israel's second war of independence. He also said that the 'second stage of the war' has now begun, which is focused on destroying Hamas' military capabilities.
– No actions involving Yemen or Iraq were recorded today. There were some reports that the Al-Omar oil field in Syria had come under attack, but no group has claimed responsibility so far.

British man attacked for entering a ‘no-go zone’ in London.
A horde of Islamists surrounded him and questioned why he was in ‘their’ neighborhood.
They threatened him and began chanting ‘Allahu Akbar’ as they kicked him out.
Minister of State for Courts and MP for Finchley and Golders Green, Sarah Sackman, says religious courts like 'Shariah' are a fundamental part of 'British Values'.
A 65-year-old couple retiring in 2025 with average earnings will receive an estimated $1.34 million in lifetime benefits, while contributing only $720,000 in today’s dollars.
That shortfall—more than $600,000 per couple—is being made up by younger workers.
“Most of the growth in spending has gone to retirement and healthcare, while programs that promote upward mobility... have been left behind”
