Headline: Major naval exercise prepares for ISIS attacks- includes VIDEO
Headline: Claim: Israeli Aircraft Struck Islamic State Targets in Egypt’s Sinai
The Israeli Navy completed a major exercise in the Sea Red early Wednesday morning, a simulation which is usually undertaken once or twice a year. The 24-hour exercise included every naval combat soldier currently in service, according to the commander of the exercise, underscoring the massive scale of the operation. Among other scenarios, the exercise involved real-life simulations including the hijacking of civilian vessels by terrorists, terrorist infiltrations into Israel via the sea, attacks on naval vessels and more. In particular, the Israeli navy’s focus in the Red Sea is the rising threat from the Islamic State terror group (ISIS) in Egypt’s Sinai Peninsula, which security experts fear intends to launch attacks against Israel. A navy spokesman said that Israel’s close cooperation with Egypt and Jordan is crucial and ongoing, and that the two neighboring states were alerted to the major exercise beforehand.

Headline: Israel cuts power to Jericho over ongoing PA debt
Israel’s state-run electricity company was set Thursday to reduce the power supply one of the Palestinian Authority’s major cities over a debt of $450 million, an Israeli official said. The decision by the Israel Electric Corporation (IEC) applies to the city of Jericho near the Jordanian border, and comes after the Palestinian Authority and the private Jerusalem District Electricity Company failed to pay longstanding dues, the official said. The Jerusalem District Electricity Company operates in eastern Jerusalem and the surrounding villages. The debt currently amounts to more than 1.7 billion shekels ($450 million), according to the energy industry official who spoke on condition of anonymity. “We’ve informed all the relevant parties, and after endless attempts to reach arrangements, we’ve decided to act to reduce the debt,” the official said, adding that the Jericho move was “open-ended.”

Headline: Denmark refuses to recognize Fatah’s terror incitement
In direct response to a Palestinian Media Watch (PMW) report revealing how the Fatah faction actively promotes terror, Danish Foreign Minister Kristian Jensen refused to reassess the Palestinian group as not being “moderate.” That action was taken after Jensen said in the Danish Parliament that a specific example of terror glorification by a Fatah official did not represent the entire organization. His words seemed to imply that if Fatah or the PA did in fact glorify terror, Denmark would “reassess” their “moderate” categorization. Losing no time, PMW sent their report clearly proving that Fatah and its senior leaders regularly incite terror and glorify those who murder Israelis. But in response, the Danish Foreign Ministry chose to ignore the report and issued a general statement condemning violence. When pressed for comment on specific examples, the ministry simply responded: “we have nothing more to contribute.” The reason given by the ministry for not commenting on the report or reassessing Fatah’s standing was that it “does not share the interpretation” by PMW that Jensen indicated Fatah would be reassessed if it promoted terror.

Headline: Britain hands Lebanon £20million to help keep ISIS jihadis out of the Middle East country
Foreign Secretary Philip Hammond today announced the British Government has given the Middle Eastern country’s army £15.3m to train border guards until the end of 2019 in a bid to stop Syria’s civil war spilling over its border. A further £4.5m has been allocated to the Lebanese army to train 5,000 troops. Announcing the hefty aid donation on a visit to Lebanon on Thursday, Mr Hammond, said: “Lebanon is an important part of the front line against terrorism.” Using the alternative Arabic word for ISIS, he added: “We are delighted by the way the UK support is being translated into strengthened border security and is enabling the armed forces to take the fight to Daesh and keep Lebanon safe from the incursions of Daesh.” The United States has also given Lebanon three Huey II multi-mission helicopters worth £18m to add to the six others it has given the armed forces.

Saudi Arabia
Headline: ISIS Turns Saudis Against the Kingdom
The Islamic State, like Al Qaeda before it, accuses the Saudi monarchy of corrupting the faith in order to preserve its power. But Qaeda networks in the kingdom were dismantled years ago, and the group’s leadership abroad has discouraged killing Muslim civilians. The Islamic State, however, has been able to infiltrate the kingdom through digital recruiting, and it has found devotees willing to kill fellow Sunnis, as well as Shiites, to destabilize the monarchy. Now the Islamic State poses a new challenge, by turning aspects of Saudi Arabia’s fundamentalist creed against it. Wahhabism has been molded over the years to serve the interests of the monarchy, emphasizing obedience to the rulers and condemning terrorist attacks, even against those seen as apostates. Still, among the Islamic State’s many enemies, Saudi Arabia is the only one that considers the Quran and other religious texts its constitution, criminalizes apostasy and bans all forms of unsanctioned public religion.

Headline: Yemen rebels in deadly counterattack on Red Sea coast
Yemeni rebels have mounted a deadly counterattack against government troops advancing down the Red Sea coast from the Saudi border ahead of a planned ceasefire next month, military sources said on Thursday. The rebels and their allies surrounded a government force that was attempting to recapture the coastal town of Midi and killed 45 loyalist troops on Tuesday and Wednesday, the sources said. At least 15 rebels were also killed in the fighting. Forces loyal to the internationally recognised government based in the south crossed the border from Saudi Arabia in mid-December in a bid to open up a new front in the north as offensives faltered in the centre and east. They swiftly captured the inland town of Haradh and Midi port, but they have met heavy resistance from the rebels and their allies in the adjacent town. Despite a Saudi-led military intervention, which is now in its second year, the Huthi Shiite rebels still control most of the Red Sea coast, including the key ports of Hodeida and Mokha.

Syria Headline: Russian nuclear-capable Iskander missiles deployed in Syria
Russia has deployed its most advanced tactical missile system, the Iskander-M, in Syria in the last few days, debkafile reports exclusively from its military and intelligence sources. The Russian Iskander is capable of carrying a nuclear warhead and has never been made available to any foreign army for operational use. No nuclear-capable surface missiles were deployed in any Arab country bordering on Israel since 2007 when Chinese DF-21 missiles were installed in Saudi Arabia. The Russian missiles (NATO codenamed SS-26) have a range of 500 kilometers (see map). The Iskander’s transfer to the Kaliningrad enclave in the Baltic Sea in 2015, putting it in range of Central and Western Europe, was a mark of heightened tensions with the West over Russia’s intervention in Ukraine. Its deployment in Syria, amid a bloody five-year civil war, is a game changer in terms of the balance of strength in the Middle East. Its range – from the Russian Hmeimim base in western Syria – covers all of Israel up to the southern town of Beersheba, points in Turkey up to the outskirts of Ankara and the eastern and central Mediterranean including Cyprus.

Syria Headline: Syria govt strikes kill at least 23: activists
Syrian government airstrikes killed at least 23 people including four children Thursday in the worst cease-fire violation yet in a key rebel bastion east of the capital, activists said. Dozens more were wounded in the raids on Deir Al-Assafir, a town in the opposition stronghold of Eastern Ghouta, according to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights. The strikes, which killed 13 civilians, two police officers and eight unidentified victims, represented “the largest cease-fire violation in Eastern Ghouta,” Observatory head Rami Abdel-Rahman said. A fragile ceasefire brokered by the United States and Russia has been in place across parts of Syria, including Eastern Ghouta, since Feb. 27. The truce does not include areas where ISIS and Al-Qaeda’s local affiliate Nusra Front are present. Eastern Ghouta is dominated by the powerful Army of Islam rebel group, which has agreed to the truce, but there are also small pockets of Nusra fighters.

Iraq Headline: Suicide attack in Iraq’s Makhmour kills three policemen
At least three Kurdish policemen were killed in a car bomb in the town of Makhmour, south of the Kurdistan Region capital, Erbill on Thursday, a Kurdish official told Rudaw. “Three policemen have been killed and several others wounded,” said Rashad Galai, a Patriotic Union of Kurdistan (PUK) official, in the town. “It was a suicide bomb attack,” he added. The mayor of Makhmour also told Rudaw that the car bomb went off in front of the towns police station.
The Makhmour front has been defended by the Peshmerga from Islamic State assaults since that group’s takeover of Mosul back in June 2014.
This month the Iraqi Army kicked off its long-anticipated battle for Mosul from Makhmour. The US Marines also set up a fire-base near the town to provide artillery fire support to the Iraqis.

Iraq Headline: Iraqi troops outside Hit gates: Army
Iraqi troops are advancing towards the western town of Hit in a push to drive out Daesh militants, the military says. A senior officer from the counter-terrorism forces which led the recapture of nearby Ramadi three months ago said Thursday his troops are one kilometer from the town center. The operation some 130 km (80 miles) west of the capital Baghdad began at 0600 (0300 GMT) and was progressing swiftly, another officer was quoted as saying. Hit is strategically located on the Euphrates River near the Ain al-Asad air base and its recapture would push Daesh further west towards the Syrian border. The liberation of the town would also cut a connection to the northern town of Samarra and leave Fallujah as the only stronghold left for Daesh near the capital.

Kurdish Headline: Kurdish forces prepare to ‘liberate’ ISIS stronghold of Raqqa: leader
Kurdish forces in Syria are preparing with the international coalition to “liberate” the ISIS stronghold of Raqqa, the leader of Syria’s Kurds said Thursday. “The Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) are preparing with the coalition to liberate Raqqa,” Saleh Muslim told reporters in Paris. The SDF are dominated by Kurdish forces. Muslim, the head of the Democratic Union Party (PYD), added however that the fighters would need the support of up to 50,000 “Arab residents of the Raqqa region” to take the northeastern town which the jihadists have made their base. The PYD chief said his forces were currently attempting to take control of a 70-km (44-mile) corridor “which is the terrorists’ only access route.” Muslim said the ISIS fighters who had fled Palmyra when Syrian government forces seized control of the ancient city last week are now heading towards the town of Azaz from Turkey. “This corridor between Turkey and Raqqa must be closed, with the help of coalition air support,” he added.

A car bomb killed seven police officers and wounded around two dozen people in Turkey’s Diyarbakir on Thursday, security sources and officials said, a day before the prime minister is due to visit the biggest city in the largely Kurdish southeast. A parked car laden with explosives was detonated by remote control as a minibus carrying the police officers turned a corner on a busy street, the sources said, adding that civilians were also among the wounded. President Tayyip Erdogan, who is on a visit to Washington for a nuclear security summit, denounced the attack, saying it showed the “ugly face” of militants “as they are cornered”. “This shows terrorism’s ugly face again. The determination of our security forces will, God willing, put an end” to it, Erdogan said in a speech to the Brookings Institute. He said 27 people had also been wounded in the attack.

Turkey’s direct support for terrorists fighting in Syria makes them President Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s own army, Syrian President Bashar Assad said in an exclusive interview with Sputnik, adding that his country is ready to counter the aggression. Turkey, as well as Saudi Arabia, have “crossed all possible red lines, possibly from the first weeks of the Syrian war,” Assad said. “Today, the war against Erdogan and against Saudi Arabia is a war against terrorists. The Turkish army, which is not even Turkish, is Erdogan’s army that is fighting today in Syria,” he added. Everything that Ankara and Riyadh “have done from the very beginning can be considered aggression. Aggression in a political sense or in a military sense – providing terrorists with arms – or direct aggression with the use of artillery, and other military violations,” he stressed.

The Obama administration may soon tell foreign governments and banks they can start using the dollar in some instances to facilitate business with Iran, officials told The Associated Press, describing an arcane tweak to U.S. financial rules that could prove significant for Tehran’s sanctions-battered economy. While no decision is final, U.S. officials familiar with internal discussions said the Treasury Department is considering issuing a general license that would permit offshore financial institutions to access dollars for foreign currency trades in support of legitimate business with Iran, a practice that is currently illegal. Several restrictions would apply, but such a license would reverse a ban that has been in place for several years and one the administration had vowed to maintain while defending last year’s nuclear deal to skeptical U.S. lawmakers and the public.

Libya’s U.N.-backed unity government held meetings at a heavily guarded naval base in Tripoli on Thursday and a senior military official said it was working to secure state institutions in the capital. The government’s leaders arrived at the naval base by ship from Tunisia on Wednesday in a high-risk bid to take power, after being prevented from flying in when opponents closed down Tripoli’s airspace. The capital has been mostly calm since their arrival, though a TV station that supports Tripoli’s separate, self-declared National Salvation government was taken off air late on Wednesday and there were brief clashes close to the city center. On Thursday, members of the unity government and its seven-member Presidential Council held meetings with local council leaders at the naval base. Abdulrahman Taweel, a brigadier general in charge of organising protection for the new government, described the base as “completely secured”.
“We are working to secure all other state institutions,” he told Reuters, without elaborating. “The Council is here to stay and to continue their work here in Tripoli. They will not leave except for international meetings and will return.” The Presidential Council and the Government of National Accord (GNA) emerged from a U.N.-mediated deal signed in December.

Paul Chodas was recording video of space when he inadvertently captured video of what is believed to be an asteroid impacting the surface of Jupiter. Chodas, who is the head of the Near-Earth Object Program at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, a federally funded space research center in California, was recording video when he captured an unknown object hitting the planet March 17. While Chodas said it’s unclear exactly what the object was, he suspects it was an asteroid. “It’s more likely to be an asteroid simply because there are more of them,” Chodas said, according to the Huffington Post. Chodas wasn’t the only astronomer to catch the phenomenon, however. John McKeon, who lives in Ireland, was recording a time-lapse video when the event took place. “The original purpose of the imaging session was to get this time-lapse, with a happy coincidence of the impact in the second last capture of the night,” McKeon wrote in a YouTube video description.
