Headline: Israeli Army Strikes in Syria After Mortar Shells Hit Israeli Golan Heights
Three Syrian mortar shells exploded in the Israeli Golan Heights on Friday, causing no damage. The Israeli army attacked the positions from which the mortar shells were fired in the Syrian Golan Heights, the army said in a statement. The first mortar shell fell around 5 P.M. near the Syrian border, and about an hour later a rocket siren was sounded in the area, followed shortly by two more mortar shells. The Israeli army said it was likely that the fire was not intentional, but was spillover from the Syrian civil war.Earlier this month a teenaged girl was hit by an errant bullet from Syria in the Israeli town of Alonei Habashan.

Headline: Syria: Israeli retaliation proof it supports rebels
Syria claimed on Friday that Israel’s retaliation for the explosion of mortar shells in the Golan Heights was proof that Israel provides assistance to rebels trying to topple Bashar Al-Assad’s regime. In a statement quoted by the official Syrian news agency SANA, a Syrian military source confirmed that Israel struck a military position in the Quneitra region. The strike caused “material damage”, according to the statement. The source said that the Israeli “aggression” came after an attempt by “terrorists” to infiltrate military positions in Quneitra was foiled. This, claimed the source, proves that Israel provides direct support to “terrorist organizations”. The Assad regime uses the term “terrorists” to describe all the rebel groups trying to oust the president.

Headline: Jordan Planning to Deploy Troops in Syria in Coordination With US – Assad
Headline: Jordan rejects Assad claim it plans to send troops to Syria
The Syrian government is aware that Jordan is planning to deploy troops on its territory in coordination with the United States, Syrian President Bashar Assad told Sputnik. “We have such information, but anyway Jordan was part of the American plan since the beginning of the war in Syria,” Bashar said. He maintained that, “it’s the United States who defines the plans, who defines the players, and who endorses everything regarding Syria coming from Jordan, and many of the terrorists coming from Jordan, and of course Turkey, since day one of the war in Syria.” The statement comes following the talks between US President Donald Trump and Jordanian King Abdullah II earlier in April. The two leaders held a bilateral meeting at the White House on crucial Middle East issues, such as means to defeat Daesh terrorist group. Jordan is a part of the US-led coalition against Daesh, which is conducting airstrikes against Daesh in Syria without the approval of Syrian authorities and the UN, thus, violating the international law.

Lebanon
Headline: Hezbollah Border Tour Illustrates Standoff With Israel
Headline: UNIFIL: Hezbollah did not let us know in advance about border tour
With their Kalashnikovs and anti-aircraft missiles pointing outward, the Hezbollah militants peered at journalists from an orange grove in a village on the Israeli border. “No photos!” a Hezbollah official ordered after almost all had taken pictures of the unusual peacetime scene. Thursday’s odd encounter was part of a south Lebanon media tour that Hezbollah organized. The objective was to highlight Israeli defensive measures taken in the past year along the southern frontier. The choreographed outing also was meant to send a message to Israel: Hezbollah is here and ready in case of a war. The tour was the first since an inconclusive monthlong war with Israel in 2006. It came amid heightened tensions along the border, with each side promising to inflict massive casualties on the other in any conflict. In the past month, Israel has unveiled a plan to evacuate up to a quarter-million civilians from border communities in case of attacks from Hezbollah or other Islamic militant groups. It held a drill at a base in northern Israel simulating a Lebanese village and an urban warfare environment that Israeli troops struggled with in 2006.

Headline: Lebanese PM criticizes Hezbollah’s press tour on Israel border
Lebanese Prime Minister Saad al-Hariri asked the United Nations on Friday to help Lebanon and Israel move towards a permanent ceasefire and end what he called Israel’s “continuous violations” of Lebanese territory. Israel and Lebanon’s Shi’ite Hezbollah group fought a month-long war in 2006 that concluded with a cessation of hostilities but without a formal peace deal. “I urge the U.N. secretary general to support efforts to secure, as soon as possible, a state of permanent ceasefire. This is long overdue and my government is committed to move this agenda forward,” Hariri said. Hariri was speaking on a visit to south Lebanon a day after Hezbollah officials staged a media tour near the same area to view what they said were recent Israeli fortifications on the border and to state their preparedness in case of any new war.

Headline: ISIS claims responsibility for Paris attack that killed 1 police officer and wounded 2 more
ISIS claimed responsibility for an attack on police officers on the Champs-Élysées in Paris Thursday evening that left one officer dead and two others wounded. The terrorist group released a message through its news agency Amaq saying that the attacker was “one of the fighters for the Islamic State.” The assailant was killed but has not been publicly identified, a police spokesperson said. French President François Hollande said that one bystander was injured during a shootout between police and the attacker and that the leads so far indicated the attack was of a “terrorist nature.” French Interior Ministry spokesman Pierre-Henri Brandet said during a press briefing that a man exited his car and started a shooting at a police car with an automatic weapon around 9 p.m. The attacker continued shooting at police as he attempted to flee the scene and was killed by police in an exchange of gunfire, Brandet said. A terrorism investigation into the attack had been opened, the Paris prosecutor’s office said. Paris Mayor Anne Hidalgo said that Parisians would not not give in to the threat of terrorism.

Headline: Taliban Bombers Assault Northern Afghan Military Base
Headline: More than 50 feared dead in Taliban attack on Afghan forces base – US military
Clashes are raging at a military base in the northern Afghan city of Mazar-i-Sharif after Taliban insurgents assaulted the facility Friday afternoon, said Afghan officials and insurgents. Local officials in Mazar-I-Sharif have now confirmed at least 8 security personnel were killed and more than 10 others wounded in the attack in the capital of relatively peaceful Balkh province. They said Afghan forces have ended the siege after killing the attackers, some of whom were in security forces’ uniforms. Witnesses told VOA the assailants arrived at the military facility on board two Afghan army vehicles. Afghan media quoted witnesses as saying the attack left at least 10 security personnel dead. But several hours after the siege began, Afghan officials have provided little information to reporters. The Taliban took credit for the violence, saying a group of its fighters with explosives strapped to their bodies staged the coordinated raid.

Headline: Venezuelan authorities say 12 killed, 6 injured in overnight violence
At least 12 people were killed overnight following looting and violence in Venezuela’s capital amid a spiralling political crisis in the South American country, authorities said Friday. The Public Ministry confirmed the deaths Friday and said another six were hurt. Most of the deaths took place in El Valle, where opposition leaders say 13 people were hit with an electrical current while trying to loot a bakery protected by an electric fence. Earlier Friday, officials reported that a young Venezuelan man returning home late from work on Thursday had been fatally shot when he got caught in the middle of late-night street clashes that engulfed several working-class neighbourhoods in Caracas. Melvin Guitan died in a poor neighbourhood in eastern Caracas amid the almost-daily, increasingly violent protests against President Nicolas Maduro.The outburst of violence followed a second straight day of major demonstrations Thursday that saw tens of thousands of Venezuelans flood into the streets to demand elections and denounce what they consider a dictatorial government.

Headline: Boko Haram kills eight Nigerian soldiers, loots army base
The insurgent Islamist group Boko Haram attacked a Nigerian army base, killing at least eight soldiers, a Nigerian newspaper reported Friday. The army base at Sabon Gari, in northeastern Borno state, was sacked in two attacks, which began Monday when 200 Boko Haram fighters arrived on motorcycles and trucks with artillery guns, the Premium Times reported Friday. Five Nigerian soldiers were killed and four remain missing. Another assault Thursday, an ambush against troops on patrol, killed three more soldiers. The Boko Haram forces also removed weapons and ammunition from the base armory. The Nigerian army offered no confirmation of the attack. On Tuesday it reported that six Boko Haram insurgents were killed in an army clearance operation in Borno state.

Headline: South Korea on heightened alert as North Korea readies for army anniversary
Headline: Japanese destroyers join US strike group amid tensions on Korean Peninsula
South Korea was on heightened alert on Friday ahead of another important anniversary in North Korea, with a large concentration of military hardware amassed on both sides of the border amid concerns about a new nuclear test by Pyongyang. North Korea will mark the 85th anniversary of the foundation of its Korean People’s Army on Tuesday, as it concludes winter military drills at the same time as U.S. and South Korean exercises running until the end of April, South Korea’s Unification Ministry spokesman Lee Duk-haeng said. “It is a situation where a lot of exercise equipment is amassed in North Korea and also a lot of strategic assets are situated on the Korean peninsula because of the South Korea-U.S. military drills,” Lee told a briefing. “We are closely watching the situation,” he said, adding that South Korea would not let its guard down. North Korea said on Friday the state of affairs on the Korean peninsula was “extremely perilous” because of “madcap American nuclear war maneuvers aimed at trampling on our sovereignty and right to survival.” Tensions have risen sharply in recent months after North Korea conducted two nuclear weapons tests last year and carried out a steady stream of ballistic missile tests. U.S. President Donald Trump has vowed to prevent North Korea from being able to hit the United States with a nuclear missile.

Headline: Venezuela Only Has $10 Billion Left in Reserves
Headline: Amid Venezuela Protests, G.M. Plant Is Seized, and Company Exits
Amid all of Venezuela’s problems, the country is running out of time and money. Venezuela only has $10 billion in reserves — the cash that’s intended to keep an economy stable and weather tough times. What’s worse: most of those reserves aren’t in hard cash. About $7 billion is in gold bars, which doesn’t make it easy to make payments. And Venezuela has a lot of bills to pay soon. It owes $6 billion in debt payments for the rest of this year. There’s also no sign that the country’s lone source of revenue — oil exports — will be able to pay down those debts. At the end of the day, Venezuela is running the risk of defaulting on its debt this year, meaning it wouldn’t be able to get more loans to pay for basics like food and medicine, which are in scarce supply. In 2011, Venezuela had $30 billion in the bank. As recently as 2015, it had $20 billion. The worsening financial picture underscores Venezuela’s problems. Violent, anti-government protests killed three people Wednesday, and more protests are scheduled for the weekend. Armed forces met protesters with tear gas and shots. Meanwhile, Venezuelan authorities seized the General Motors local vehicle assembly plant. America’s largest automaker said it had been forced to cease operations in Venezuela because of an “illegal judicial seizure of its assets” and would lay off its 2,700 workers there.

Headline: Russia bans Jehovah’s Witnesses as ‘extremist’
Russia’s Supreme Court issued a ruling Thursday banning Jehovah’s Witnesses and seizing their property after the justice ministry called on it to dissolve the Christian group as an “extremist organization.” Supreme Court judge Yury Ivanenko said Russia had decided to close down “the administrative center of Jehovah’s Witnesses and the local organizations in its fold and turn their property over to Russia.” The decision comes after the ministry said it had found signs of “extremist activity” within the religious movement and requested that it be banned. “They represent a threat to the rights of the people, to public order and public safety,” Russian news agencies quoted justice ministry representative Svetlana Borisova as saying. The religious movement, which has 395 centers across Russia, has vowed to appeal the decision. “I’m shocked,” Yaroslav Sivulsky, who represents the group’s administrative center, told reporters. “I didn’t expect that this could be possible in modern Russia, where the constitution guarantees freedom of religious practice.”

Headline: Solar flare spewing from mega hole in the Sun could cause blackout mayhem
A GIANT fissure has opened across the Sun and is spewing rapid solar winds toward our planet. NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory got wind of the massive hole on Friday morning.This coronal hole is a vast region where the Sun’s magnetic field tears apart, allowing solar wind to escape. Super-charged solar winds flowing from the Sun’s atmosphere are expected to reach Earth on April 23 or 24. According to the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, this could whip up a “moderately strong” geomagnetic storm.These kinds of storms are behind the beautiful natural phenomenon, the Northern Lights. But a storm of this magnitude could have an effect on power grids and navigation systems across the Earth’s surface. G2 storms affect plane and military radio systems, spacecraft operations and could trigger voltage alarms or cause equipment damage in power systems. Scientists are growing increasingly concerned over the effect a solar explosion, flare or storm could have on humanity.
