Israel’s 1982 invasion became the catalyst for unity among Lebanon’s fragmented Shia groups. By winter 1983, five key leaders formed a joint council — the foundation for a new resistance against occupation. #lebanon24 #Israel_Enemy_of_Humanity

Today, England's water companies received their worst pollution ratings since records began.

Rising bills. Soaring profits. Sewage in our rivers and seas.

Enough is enough. Bring water back into public ownership, now.

The Amal Movement, once a key force in Lebanon’s resistance against Israel, began to decline after Imam Musa Sadr’s disappearance in 1978 — a decline that deepened by 1982, leaving the movement divided and weakened. #Lebanon #History #MiddleEast

Since 1992, Hezbollah has been an active player in Lebanese politics — winning seats in parliament and even holding cabinet positions, such as the Ministry of Energy in 2005. #Lebanon #Politics #MiddleEast

As Shabab al-Mu'min grew, Hussein al-Houthi’s anti-American speeches alarmed Yemen’s U.S.-backed government. In 2004, the regime launched its first military assault on the group’s strongholds in Saada igniting a conflict that would reshape Yemen’s history. #Yemen #Houthis #Saada #MiddleEast #History

Hussein al-Houthi’s admiration for Imam Khomeini ran deep. After a secret visit in the 1980s, he returned to Yemen inspired by the ideals of Iran’s Islamic Revolution — determined to bring those principles to his own nation. #Yemen #Houthis #History #IslamicRevolution #MiddleEast

The rise of Shabab al-Mu’min in the 1990s was driven by deep frustration — Yemen’s government ignored Zaidi rights while Wahhabi and Salafi influence spread in Houthi regions. Resistance was born from neglect. #Yemen #Houthis #AnsarAllah #MiddleEast #History

More than half of teachers (54%) say misogyny in schools has worsened in recent years. Education should shape respect — not reinforce hate. #teachers #schools #misogyny #equality

A new study finds millions of over-50s in the UK are living with undiagnosed sight or hearing problems. Silent struggles that could be prevented — if only we listened and looked closer. 👁️👂 #UK #hearing #sight #health

Cristiano Ronaldo has sparked outrage in Israeli media by rejecting offers of advertising and cooperation with Israeli companies. His reported stance—“I will never collaborate with Israelis”—is sending shockwaves through both sports and politics. #CristianoRonaldo #IsraeliMedia #IsraeliCompanies
