Headline: Hamas Declares Jerusalem ‘Eternal Capital’ of Islamic World
Hamas has declared that Jerusalem is the eternal capital of the Islamic world,” the Saudi Arabia-backed Al-Resalah reported. The terrorist organization that rules Gaza and has cells in Judea and Samaria “warned of the repercussions of Israeli decisions to transfer government ministers to Occupied Jerusalem, dubbing the move a flagrant violation of international resolutions,” according to the website. Hamas official, Ezzet Resheq wrote: Jerusalem will remain as intrinsically Palestinian and indivisible as it has always been. It will oust all Judaization schemes. Hamas has decided to convince its followers that Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu’s recent appointment of government ministers is some kind of unprecedented move, as if the Jews all of a sudden have woken up.

“Do not keep silent, O God! Do not hold Your peace, And do not be still, O God! 2 For behold, Your enemies make a tumult; And those who hate You have lifted up their head. 3 They have taken crafty counsel against Your people, And consulted together against Your sheltered ones. 4 They have said, “Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation, That the name of Israel may be remembered no more.” (Psalm 83)

Headline: Hezbollah takes more Qalamoun highlands from Nusra; jihadis clash nearby
Headline: The battle for Qalamoun- a Timeline
Hezbollah fighters captured more territory in Syria’s Qalamoun mountains Monday, three weeks into an offensive to oust jihadis from the rugged border region, Al-Manar said. The report said Hezbollah fighters captured several highlands northeast of the outskirts of Nahleh along Lebanon’s eastern mountain range shortly before midday. The Hezbollah-run Al-Manar said the advancing fighters destroyed a military vehicle belonging to Nusra Front jihadis, “killing and wounding several militants.” Hezbollah chief Hasan Nasrallah vowed in a speech Sunday night that the Qalamoun offensive would push on until Lebanon’s border is secure. Three Hezbollah fighters were killed fighting in Qalamoun last week, bringing the party’s death toll since the launch of the Qalamoun offensive to at least 16, according to a security source. Meanwhile, clashes broke out between Nusra and ISIS fighters on the outskirts of Arsal, on Lebanon’s northeast border, a rebel source said. The source said the fighting was sparked after ISIS kidnapped Syrian national Ahmad Saifeddine, a Nusra militant.

Egypt
Headline: Egypt says it has discovered 521 tunnels into Gaza Strip
The Egyptian army says it has destroyed the openings of more than 500 underground tunnels during a six-month military operation on its eastern borders with the Gaza Strip. The spokesperson for Egypt’s army spoke to the state-owned daily al-Ahram in an interview published on Monday, saying that the military has discovered the openings of 521 underground tunnels connecting Egypt with the Gaza Strip. Egypt’s armed forces began a large-scale military crackdown in the restive eastern province of North Sinai last October when a huge and highly co-ordinated militant attack killed more than 30 soldiers. Egypt’s military spokesperson, General Mohammed Samir, said tunnels had been discovered with openings up to 2.8 kilometres from the border. Samir also said authorities had confiscated 6,097 weapons, as well as 2,350 kilogrammes of high explosives. With chaos reigning in Sinai, and reports that locals accused of “collaborating” with the government are frequently executed by powerful militia groups, Egypt’s President Sisi has vowed to do more to stamp out militancy in the area. In the third of a series of monthly televised speeches on 12 May, Sisi promised that the fight against militancy in Sinai will be “comprehensive,” and will extend beyond the current military campaign.

Syria Headline: Blast in Syria pro-government bastion Latakia kills 4
At least four people were killed in a blast in the Syrian government stronghold of Latakia on Monday, but there were conflicting reports about what caused the explosion. It comes amid heightened fears of attacks in the coastal region after a rebel alliance that includes the Al-Qaeda-affiliated Nusra Front last month seized Jisr al-Shughur in neighboring Idlib province. The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights and sources on the ground both reported the blast in the city of Latakia in the coastal province of the same name. An AFP correspondent in the city saw flames and a column of smoke rising after hearing what appeared to be an explosion in the Mar Taqla neighborhood. At the scene of the blast, residents said those killed were a father and his son and daughter, along with their female neighbor. The explosion set fire to the family’s apartment and partially collapsed the building’s roof. The Britain-based Observatory also reported that the blast had killed four people, among them two children. But there were differing accounts of what caused with the blast, with officials in the city refusing to comment and residents saying the cause was unclear. The Observatory said the blast was the result of a drone that crashed into the city after being hit by a rocket fired from a ship offshore in the Mediterranean.

Syria Headline: Dozens killed by pro-Assad forces and ISIS militants in Deir ez-Zor
On Sunday, the pro-Syrian regime helicopters dropped several barrel bombs on the city of Deir ez-Zor, northeastern Syria, resulted in the death of at least 30 civilians, including women and children, local sources reported. In the meantime, the radial group of the Islamic State (IS/ISIL) executed 27 civilians in the province. The victims were beheaded on charges of apostasy and leaking confidential information about the group to the regime. Activists told ARA News that the province witnessed a campaign of executions for three consecutive days in the Kharita town and the villages of al-Masrab, Hawyej Shamiya, and Muhamida in the western countryside of Deir ez-Zor. The village of Hatla and the town of Khasham in the eastern countryside of Deir ez-Zor have also seen the beheading of at least 6 civilians by the radical group on Sunday.

Iraq Headline: Iraqi Parliament Speaker: Mosul Operation Will Be Coordinated with Turkey
Iraqi Parliament Speaker Salim al-Jabouri has said that it’s important for the Iraqi government to have strong coordination with Turkey for any Mosul operation to free the city from Islamic State (IS). In a meeting in Iraqi capital Baghdad on Monday, al-Jabouri held talks with Turkish Ambassador to Iraq Faruk Kaymakçı. The Iraqi Parliament Speaker asked for Turkish military support and training for the Iraqi army. Al-Jabouri said that Iraqi soldiers are preparing for the expected Mosul operation. The second largest city in Iraq, Mosul has been under the control of IS militants since June last year. “The Iraqi forces and volunteer groups are ready for the operation, but they need more help, especially from a neighboring country like Turkey,” added al-Jabouri.

Kurdish Headline: Kurdish rebels attack Turkish base
Turkey’s military says suspected Kurdish militants have fired two mortar rounds at a military base in the country’s southeast region, prompting the military to fire back in retaliation. A statement posted Monday on the military’s website says no one was injured in Sunday’s attack on the base in Hakkari province, close to Turkey’s borders with Iraq and Iran. The exchange of fire comes despite a peace process between Turkey and the rebel group, PKK, aimed at ending a conflict which has killed tens of thousands of people since 1984. Turkey’s president and prime minister are scheduled to inaugurate a new airport in Hakkari on Tuesday.

Headline: Former UK Army Chief Calls for Ground Invasion Against ISIS
Headline: No army in Mid East is challenging ISIS
Headline: SHOCK POLL: 81% Of Al Jazeera Arabic Poll Respondents Support Islamic State
Former UK Chief of Staff Lord Dannatt has called for a ground invasion against Islamic State (ISIS) on Monday, claiming that the cultural and security impact of the group calls for an international armed effort to expand beyond the current airstrike campaign. “The capture and likely destruction of the 2,000-year-old Roman colonnades at Palmyra, Syria, by Islamic State constitutes a potential cultural crime on a gigantic scale,” Dannatt wrote in the Daily Mail. “These majestic ruins represent thousands of years of human civilisation and there is now surely no doubting just how great a threat IS [ISIS – ed.] poses to civilization in the region and beyond.” Dannatt continues that ISIS could spread across Europe and the Middle East, returning to the “height of Islam” and Islamic conquest in Medieval times – and further. “Although the United States might think it enjoys the security of the Atlantic between itself and where ISIS wants to expand, it cannot forget the domestic terrorist threat,” he stated. “In light of this terrifying scenario, how much longer can Britain and the US continue to show such a lack of commitment to defeating ISIS militarily?” Dannatt insists that the airstrike campaign, codenamed Operation Inherent Resolve, has failed so far to prevent ISIS spreading. He proposes an international fighting force of about 5,000 soldiers, and notes that ISIS – unlike the Taliban or other “insurgents,” as he calls them – is using “conventional” military tactics not unlike a regular Army. The force would include “a fully fledged brigade with infantry troops, attack helicopters, artillery, mortars, reconnaissance and surveillance assets,” he adds, noting that a UN Security Council resolution would be necessary to facilitate such a move.

Turkey
Headline: Turkey and US ‘agree in principle’ to provide air support for Syrian rebels
Turkey and the US have agreed in “principle” to provide air protection to Syrian rebels being trained and equipped to fight Islamic State militants, once they enter Syrian territory for battle, Turkey’s foreign minister said. The two countries agreed in February to train and equip up to 15,000 Syrians under the $500m US programme designed to add a credible ground force to an air bombing campaign against the militant group. The program suffered unexplained delays as the US resisted Turkish calls for the force to be also prepared to fight the Syrian regime of Bashar al-Assad, and the sides tried to reach agreement on who to train. The US has also refused a Turkish proposal for enforcing a safe area and a no-fly zone in Syria, prompting questions on how trained rebels would be protected when they entered the country. “They have to be supported via air,” Mevlut Cavusoglu, the Turkish foreign minister told the pro-government Daily Sabah newspaper in comments published on Monday. “If you do not protect them or provide air support, what is the point?”

Iran
Headline: Iranian General Suleimani Blames US For Fall of Ramadi
The US has done “nothing” to help Iraq`s army battle Islamic State (IS) militants in Ramadi, according to a senior Iranian general involved in the fight against the jihadist group. Qassem Suleimani, the Iranian Revolutionary Guards` commander of foreign operations, hit out at Washington after Pentagon chief Ashton Carter said Iraqi forces “failed to fight” in Ramadi, which has fallen to IS. “Mr. (Barack) Obama, what is the distance between Ramadi and Al-Asad base where US planes are based?” Suleimani said in a speech late Sunday in the southern province of Kerman carried by state news agency IRNA. How can you be in that country under the pretext of protecting the Iraqis and do nothing? This is no more than being an accomplice in a plot,” said Suleimani. According to media reports, Iran has military advisers in Iraq and Syria and provides financial and military support to the governments of both countries in their battle against Sunni extremists. Iranian media says Suleimani has been active in Iraq, particularly at the end of March when Iran-backed Shi’ite militias helped to recapture the city of Tikrit. In his remarks on Sunday, Carter said that the US-led air campaign against IS, which controls large swathes of Iraq and Syria, was still working. He said Iraqi forces had “showed no will to fight” even though they outnumbered their opponents, leading to Baghdad`s worst defeat in almost a year. But Suleimani argued that the US had “no will to fight Daesh,” using an Arabic acronym for IS. He said the jihadists, who control several oil zones in Iraq and Syria, “export their oil via countries belonging to the international coalition” led by Washington.

Headline: Nato hopes to keep a base in Afghanistan, US general says
Taliban insurgents attacked police checkpoints Sunday in volatile southern Afghanistan, killing at least 10 officers in the ongoing assault, authorities said. Mohammad Ismail Hotaki, the director of Helmand province’s Joint Coordination Office, said that Taliban fighters attacked 10 police checkpoints in the province’s Sangin district. Hotaki said Taliban fighters captured three checkpoints and continued to surge forward in their assault. Hotaki said the violence killed at least 10 officers and wounded 16. Later, Sangin’s deputy police chief, Haji Bari, said authorities recovered the corpses of at least 13 slain police officers, while 15 had been wounded. Such contradictory casualty figures are common amid an ongoing attack. “We are in control of 80 percent of the checkpoints and are currently fighting with Taliban at two checkpoints,” Bari said. “The Taliban numbers are high and they are attacking with full force. This level of force shows they are in a strong position to fight back.”

Sudan
Headline: Sudanese Government Denies Supporting Rebels in South Sudan
The Sudanese government denied on Monday it was supporting rebels in South Sudan after it accused Khartoum of supplying arms to the insurgents threatening its oil fields. Sudanese Foreign Ministry spokesman Ali al-Sadiq told the official SUNA news agency that his country has “no interest in such an intervention.” He said instability in South Sudan would send more refugees into Sudan and create of hotspots along its border. South Sudan military officials have alleged that Khartoum provides weapons and ammunition to a defected army leader in its Upper Nile state. Rebels are threatening South Sudan’s remaining functional oil fields. South Sudan gained independence from Sudan in 2011 after the region was engulfed in years of bloody civil war with Sudanese government troops. Also Monday, the country’s journalists’ union said that authorities had confiscated at least 14 newspapers without giving any notice or justification. In a statement protesting the move against press freedom, it said that four of the papers were ordered shut down entirely. A similar incident occurred last February, when 14 daily newspapers were confiscated in a single day. The union said it would be following the case and urging authorities to rescind the order.

Libya
Headline: Libyan government warplanes attack ship near port: officials
Warplanes from Libya’s official government attacked an oil tanker docked outside the city of Sirte on Sunday, wounding three people and setting the ship on fire, officials said. It was the third confirmed strike by the internationally recognized government on oil tankers, part of a conflict between competing administrations and parliaments allied to armed factions fighting for control of the country four years after the ousting of Muammar Gaddafi. The recognized premier Abdullah al-Thinni has been working out of the east since losing the capital Tripoli in August last year to a rival faction. Both sides have been attacking each other with warplanes and thanks to loose alliances with former anti-Gaddafi rebels have also been fighting on several fronts on the land. “Our jets warned an unflagged ship off Sirte city, but it ignored the warning,” the eastern air force commander Saqer al-Joroushi told Reuters. “We gave it a chance to evaluate the situation, then our fighting jets attacked the ship because it was unloading fighters and weapons,” he added. “The ship now is on fire. We are in war and we do not accept any security breaches, whether by land, air or sea,” Jourushi added.

Headline: Police arrest 71 during protests after Cleveland officer’s acquittal
Police in riot gear made 71 arrests Saturday as protesters stormed the streets of Cleveland after a judge found a white city police officer not guilty in the deaths of two unarmed black suspects killed in a barrage of police gunfire. The protesters gathered in downtown Cleveland and west side neighborhoods after the acquittal of patrolmen Michael Brelo. In a news conference Sunday morning, Cleveland Police Chief Calvin Williams said people were arrested after a day of mostly peaceful protests turned more aggressive. Officials said some protesters became violent and turned on bystanders, including some who pepper-sprayed patrons sitting at outdoor cafes downtown. Williams said that another protester threw a restaurant sign at a patron, striking him in the head. He says bystanders were also accosted in at least one other instance.

Headline: Boko Haram hacks to death 10 in Nigeria
Boko Haram fighters have hacked to death 10 people in a remote village in northeastern Nigeria. The attack happened in the early hours of Friday as residents were sleeping, officials say. Local government chairman Maina Ularumu said the rebels used machetes. News of the attack only emerged on Monday because of the remote location of the village in northern Adamawa state, and communications difficulties. The attack is the latest by Boko Haram in the region, which was declared “clear” of insurgents in March by the military. A number of villages in the area have been hit as troops try to flush out militants from their Sambisa Forest stronghold, just across the border in neighbouring Borno state. Soldiers have in recent weeks rescued hundreds of women and children from the forest after they were kidnapped during raids. On Sunday, 31 people – most children under 12 – who were freed last week were brought to the Malkohi camp outside the northeastern city of Yola, relief officials said. On Monday, defence spokesman Chris Olukolade said troops had thwarted an attack on Mafa, 50 kilometres east of the Borno state capital, Maiduguri. About 30 Boko Haram fighters were killed and “many others” wounded, he added.

Headline: Burundi Protests Continue as US, UN Urge Peace Talks
Police and anti-government protesters clashed again Monday in Burundi as the United States and United Nations urged all parties to get back to peace talks. The opposition quit the talks after the leader of the UPD party, Zedi Feruzi, and his bodyguard were killed in a shooting in Bujumbura on Saturday. The United States condemned the killings and urged Burundian authorities to arrest the perpetrators and protect other politicians. At least one demonstrator in the capital, Bujumbura, was wounded Monday when police opened fire. The French news agency reports police also shot dead a protester in the town of Muyange, 60 kilometers to the south. The Burundi crisis began last month when President Pierre Nkurunziza announced he will run for a controversial third term. The United States has also called for authorities to lift a ban on further protests, allow independent radio stations to resume broadcasting and stop using the term “insurgents” to refer to peaceful protesters. An opposition leader, Frederick Bamvuginyumvira, said Sunday that his party can no longer hold talks with the government.

Headline: Yemeni Politicians Say UN Peace Talks Indefinitely Postponed
A United Nations-sponsored Yemeni peace conference that was to start Thursday in Geneva has been indefinitely postponed, officials said, as battles raged across the country. The talks were meant to end weeks of heavy fighting and Saudi-led airstrikes against an Iran-backed rebel group amid a humanitarian crisis that has left millions in the Arab world’s poorest country short of food and fuel. Three officials from the Houthi, socialist and unionist parties said late Sunday they were notified the talks had been postponed and that no new date had been set. All the officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak to journalists. A U.N. official, who was not authorized to discuss the matter publicly and therefore also spoke on condition of anonymity, confirmed that the talks would be postponed. The setback came as Saudi-led warplanes on Monday pounded Shiite Houthi rebel positions in the capital and across the country. Heavy fighting continued in the city of Dhale, where witnesses and military officials said that fighters loyal to the exiled president managed to seize several military sites from the rebels, surrounding them in some areas and demanding they surrender. The officials, along with hospital workers, said that dozens were killed and some 70 were wounded. In the city of Taiz, the officials said 13 civilians died and some 200 others were wounded after a truck carrying oil was hit by crossfire and caused a raging fire. They added that in the capital, Sanaa, warplanes from the Saudi-led coalition struck a house owned by Ahmed Saleh, son of former president Ali Abdullah Saleh, who is allied with the Houthi rebels, leaving it destroyed and in flames. All spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to brief journalists.

Headline: Greece to miss IMF payments amid fears of ‘catastrophic’ eurozone rupture
Greece will be unable to find the €1.6bn (£1.1bn) sum it is due to hand the International Monetary Fund (IMF) next month, one of the country’s ministers has admitted. Nikos Voutsis, the Greek minister of the interior, said that “this money will not be given and is not there to be given”, speaking on Mega TV. The Greek state is due to hand over the money in four installments in June, as part of its obligations for its 2011 bail-out. Mr Voutsis’ comments came as Yanis Varoufakis, the Greek finance minister, told The Andrew Marr Show that if progress was not made, it would be the beginning of the end for the euro project. The finance minister said that the Syriza-led Greek government has now “made enormous strides at reaching a deal”, and that it is now up to the ECB, IMF and EU “to do their bit” and “meet us one-quarter of the way”. One possible alternative if talks do not progress is that Greece would leave the common currency and return to the drachma. This would be “catastrophic”, Mr Varoufakis warned, and not just for Greece itself. “It would be a disaster for everyone involved, it would be a disaster primarily for the Greek social economy, but it would also be the beginning of the end for the common currency project in Europe,” he said.

The death toll from a severe heat wave rose to 551 in Andhra Pradesh and 213 in Telangana on Monday as the meteorological office predicted similar conditions for the next two weeks. 25 deaths were reported in Srikakulam, 61 in Vizianagaram, 90 in East Godavari, 3 in West Godavari, 36 in Krishna, 104 in Guntur districts of the state. Hospitals in both the states have been inundated with patients suffering from sun stroke and dehydration from the intense heat reaching up to 47 degrees Celsius. Frequent power cuts and reduced water supply at one hospital in Visakhapatnam exacerbated the situation and some complained that fans in the hospital were not functioning. “My brother Kishore is admitted here. He suffered sun stroke while going to work yesterday morning. His condition became serious. People said that the temperature touched 45 degree Celsius yesterday. It was extremely hot. I have never experienced such intense heat in Vizag before. The government needs to take precautions to help people in this situation,” caretaker Rajesh said.

A tornado ripped through a city on the U.S.-Mexico border on Monday, killing at least 10 people as first responders in Central Texas searched for a dozen people believed to be missing after the vacation home they were staying in was swept away in torrential flooding. The Texas cities of San Marcos and Wimberley suffered extensive damage as severe storms displaced more than 2,000 residents throughout the state, leaving 12 missing in Hays County. The search for the missing came as the Mexican city of Ciudad Acuna was devastated by a twister at daybreak Monday. Officials in Mexico said at least 10 were killed in the tornado, the Associated Press reported. The city, population 100,000, is across the border from Del Rio, Texas. The grim toll comes as a line of storms this weekend have wreaked havoc from the Gulf of Mexico to the Great Lakes.

A storm blasting Antarctic weather over New Zealand is currently the biggest storm on earth according to WeatherWatch. The low stretches from just south of Fiji to Antarctica’s ice shelf, but only 20 per cent of the storm is affecting New Zealand. WeatherWatch.co.nz said the forecast air pressure at its centre over the next 24 hours would be greater than that of Hurricane Katrina when it made landfall in 2005. “The depth of this storm south of New Zealand is up there with some of the biggest hurricanes we’ve seen. It’s a really big storm.” However, WeatherWatch.co.nz said only the storm’s edges were affecting New Zealand – its centre lay around 1000 to 1500kms to our south east. Southland, Otago and Banks Peninsula woke this morning to the heaviest dumping of snow so far this year. Overnight, areas of Central Otago and Southland saw up to 30 cm of snow, according to Metservice.
