#BREAKING | U.S. Vice President: It is not true that every criticism of Netanyahu's decisions and policies leads to antisemitism- We must be extremely cautious about labeling every criticism as hatred of Jews- American leaders must be extremely cautious and act based on our interests, not the interests of any other country

The below news exhibits the catch-22 that international powers find themselves in Lebanon. They want to arm and empower the Lebanese army against Hezbollah but face the problem of soldiers selling or losing their weapons to the insurgents. Same problem as in Afghanistan.

NEW: Hezbollah has started mounting HEAT warheads on their FPV drones
In the above image, an FPV drone caught in Israeli anti-drone netting can be seen with a HEAT warhead belonging to the ‘MILAN’ anti-tank guided missile.
One of these was likely responsible for destroying the tank of Lt. Col. Ben Simhon, commander of the IDF’s 52nd Battalion, 401st Armored Brigade, in Kfar Tebnit last night.
The MILAN (Missile d’Infantrie Léger Antichar) is a French-German ATGM that has been extensively used in the Syrian Civil War and also by the Lebanese Army, which explains how Hezbollah likely procured it.
It is a somewhat old fashioned ATGM, developed back in the 1960s, and is therefore being used as a drone attachment instead of more high end shells like Iranian-made Almas or Russian Kornets.
