Hezbollah fires 200 rockets in Israel! Woman shares scary experience

Hezbollah fires 200 rockets in Israel! Woman shares scary experience

On November 11, 2024, Hezbollah fired nearly 200 rockets into Israel, targeting Haifa, which set off sirens and caused significant fires in Kiryat Ata. Videos from Israel’s MDA ambulance service showed buildings and vehicles burning. An Israeli woman described narrowly escaping death, saying there was "only a second" between life and death. Despite the barrage, many rockets were intercepted by the Israeli Defence Forces (IDF). Hezbollah’s ramped-up attacks follow the killing of its leaders by Israeli forces. Hezbollah has been launching daily rockets and drones since Hamas` October 7 assault on Israel, in retaliation for the deaths of its top commanders. With much of its leadership dismantled, Hezbollah is now led by Naim Qassem, who is likely to be the next target for the IDF. Watch video for more.... [Read More]

Israel-Hezbollah war: Nearly 200 rockets launched in Israel's Hafia

Israel-Hezbollah war: Nearly 200 rockets launched in Israel's Hafia

 On November 11, 2024, Hezbollah launched nearly 200 rockets into Israel, hitting Haifa and surrounding areas. The attack triggered air raid sirens and caused significant fires and damage in the Kiryat Ata suburb, east of Haifa. Videos from Israel`s ambulance service showed buildings and vehicles on fire. This increase in rocket and drone attacks by Hezbollah is in retaliation for the killing of their top leaders by Israeli forces. Hezbollah, an Iranian-backed militant group, began firing rockets into Israeli border communities after the Hamas attack on Israel on October 7, 2023. Despite the attacks, the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) have successfully targeted and killed many of Hezbollah’s senior commanders. Now, Naim Qassem, the group`s current leader, is considered a likely target for the IDF as the group’s leadership continues to crumble.... [Read More]

As Diwali nears, Assam's Kumar community preserves their pottery tradition

As Diwali nears, Assam's Kumar community preserves their pottery tradition

As Diwali approaches, the Kumar community in Nimati Bhitor Kokila Kumar Gaon, Assam, is struggling to keep their 200-year-old pottery tradition alive. This art, which used to be a main source of income, is now at risk of disappearing. The Kumar people are known for making clay utensils along the Brahmaputra River, but modern competition and a lack of resources are making it hard for them to survive. About 120 families live in the village, most of whom are below the poverty line, facing significant economic challenges. They also struggle to get the special clay needed for pottery and receive little support from the government. Without immediate help, the rich cultural heritage of the Kumar community could be lost forever, leaving them in a shadow of uncertainty... [Read More]
