Palestinian Al-Ahrar Movement: "Anyone who thinks resistance in Gaza ended & will raise white flag is delusional"
The Palestinian Al-Ahrar Movement affirmed on Wednesday evening its commitment to "national unity, which we urgently need in the face of this aggression and the war crimes committed against our children , women, amid international silence and full alignment with the Zionist occupation."
In a statement received by the Yemeni News Agency (SABA), the movement emphasized that "our unity lies in our cohesion, strengthening our steadfastness, and unifying our goal: confronting this occupation by all means, foremost among them armed resistance."
The statement noted that "amid the ongoing Zionist aggression and genocide in Gaza, voices have emerged calling for the Palestinian Liberation Organization (PLO) and the Palestinian Authority to take over the administration of the Gaza Strip." In response, the movement asserted that "anyone who thinks the resistance in Gaza has ended and will raise the white flag is delusional. Our heroic fighters continue to shackle the Zionist enemy daily through deadly ambushes, unleashing hell with the stones of David, inflicting human and material losses on their soldiers, equipment, and Gideon forces. Resistance operations remain at their peak despite the scorched-earth policy implemented by the Zionist occupation army in Gaza."
The statement added: "Once the war ends and the aggression against our people stops, the next day will be purely Palestinian. Through national consensus—and while we recognize that the PLO has been afflicted by senility and Alzheimer's—there is no harm in it assuming Gaza's affairs after restructuring and rebuilding its internal system, integrating all Palestinian factions, and forming an honorable stance aligned with our people's resilience and sacrifices. Without this, no party, regardless of its status, has the right to lead the Palestinian scene."
The movement further stated: "We view these calls, at a time when our people's blood is being shed, as a systematic and reprehensible intelligence operation aimed at exploiting the current security situation to benefit the Authority at the expense of our people's suffering. These voices ignore the Authority's complete silence regarding the crimes of genocide and ethnic cleansing in Gaza, as well as documented reports and videos implicating some of its elements in security chaos, internal strife, and collaboration with the occupation. Their stance seems to say: 'When will Gaza be entered, even if on the back of a Zionist-American tank?'"
The movement concluded: "Those demanding the Authority's rule over Gaza are either blind in sight and insight or complicit in its security, moral, and national collapse. Its disgraceful model of governance in the West Bank is evident to all, with its security agencies' violations against resistance fighters under the guise of 'sacred security coordination,' as declared by its leaders, and its crimes against our people—suppressing rights and freedoms while playing interchangeable roles with the occupation."

Iran claims it sent helicopter to warn US destroyer in attempt to project force
Iran is seeking to regain some sense of pride in the wake of its drubbing at the hands of Israel and the US during the 12-day war that ended a month ago, on June 24. As such, Iran has decided to have its state media celebrate claims that one of its military helicopters warned a US destroyer to stay away from Iranian waters in the Gulf of Oman. US Naval Institute USNI news site noted that 'US Central Command is denying an American guided-missile destroyer violated Iranian waters, disputing claims in Iranian state media.' Tasnim News in Iran said that on July 23 at around 10 a.m., the USS Fitzgerald 'intended to approach the waters of the Islamic Republic of Iran.' The Iranian navy's Third Nabataean Region Aviation Readiness Team (Nadaja) flew over this extra-regional vessel as quickly as possible by helicopter and issued a warning for it to move. In response, the American destroyer threatened to target the Iranian helicopter and demanded that it leave the area. However, the Iranian pilot resolutely continued his mission and once again repeated the warning to stay away from Iranian waters. An Iranian SH-3 Sea King helicopter was used in the incident to communicate with the US vessel. For Iran, this was a small victory. It wanted to prove that it continues to control its territorial waters, and that it is monitoring US naval movements. Iran doesn't want to provoke a new conflict, but it wants to show it is still a country capable of projecting force. The Iranian media presents this as a case of a helicopter warning the US vessel to change course. Clearly, a small helicopter would not be a match for a modern US destroyer. 'With the insistence of the flight team and the defense support of the Iranian army, the American destroyer finally agreed and moved away from the waters.' The Iranian media made it seem like the Americans had given up in this encounter. Al-Ain media in the United Arab Emirates described the incident as a possible new crisis:'A new chapter in the crisis between Iran and the United States, following the US strikes on Tehran's nuclear facilities last month,' the report said. It noted that the US Pentagon had responded that the naval ship had been 'safe and professional' and that the vessel's mission progress was not impeded. The Arabic-language Al-Ain report also noted that the Iranians depicted the interaction as though the US ship was made to 'surrender' and 'turn back.' Clearly, that is Iran's narrative. 'Clashes have previously occurred between the two countries' forces in the waters off southern Iran, particularly in the Gulf of Oman,' the report added. 'In 2023, Tehran announced that it had forced a US submarine to surface while it was transiting the Strait of Hormuz, a claim Washington denied,' it said. Iran also downed a $200 million Global Hawk drone in 2019. This came at a time when Iran had mined four ships off the coast of the UAE in the Gulf of Oman and also attacked two other ships underway in the same area.

It further urged the public to contribute generously and to remain committed to the path of resistance and concluded with a firm pledge to maintain steadfast support for the Palestinian people and the resistance in Gaza through every available channel—despite the will of the Zionists and their collaborators.
