In the predawn hours on Saturday, Israel launched a series of airstrikes against Iranian military infrastructure in and around Tehran, Karaj, and Mashhad, killing at least four Iranian soldiers.

On November 8, Brazilian authorities detained two suspected Hezbollah agents in Sao Paulo on the suspicion they sought to attack Jewish targets in Brazil. The plot embarrasses Brazil, which for years ignored Hezbollah’s presence.
