Israel kills Hezbollah's missile commander in Lebanon
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) reported on Monday that it killed the commander of Hezbollah's missile unit, Muhammad Musa Matirek, in the Nabatiya region in southern Lebanon.
"Over the years, Matirek held a variety of positions in Hezbollah's missile array. Matirek was responsible for promoting and executing hundreds of rocket and unmanned aerial vehicle launches against citizens of the State of Israel and IDF forces, including the Golani Brigade operating in the Beaufort area, which directed the Air Force to eliminate him," the Israeli military said.
Meanwhile, the Lebanese militant group reportedly told the Trump administration over the weekend that it is willing to accept a ceasefire agreement with Israel, despite previous reports signaling that Yemen's Houthis are prepared to join Hezbollah in its fight against Israel.

Khamenei aide says truce can't exclude Lebanon in visit to Hezbollah office
Mohammad Mokhber, an adviser to Iran's supreme leader, met with Abdullah Safi al-Din, Hezbollah's representative in Tehran, on Monday, Iranian state media reported.
During the meeting, Mokhber said any ceasefire involving Tehran that does not take Lebanon and Iran's regional allied groups into account is "irrelevant."
How Leftists React To Facts
by Steve Watson via Modernity.news,
When presented with uncomfortable irrefutable statistics on migrant crime, those on the left don’t debate—they threaten violence and scream about history as an excuse for chaos today.
That’s exactly what unfolded outside the Delaney Hall ICE detention facility in Newark, New Jersey, Saunday. GB News chief US correspondent Ben Leo was on the ground covering anti-ICE protests—already marked by days of clashes, a hunger strike by detainees, and assaults on officers—when he calmly laid out basic facts about illegal migrant crime patterns in the UK while engaging with the ‘protesters’.
The furious black nationalist got inches from Leo’s face, accused Brits of colonizing the world “through rape, murder and pillaging,” and warned he was “holding everything back not to break your f***ing jaw.”
Me: certain nationalities in UK are more likely to commit sexual offences than Brits

Leftist nutcase: “I’m gonna break your f*****g jaw.”

Leo stood his ground without flinching. Lurking right behind the seething guy, a spectacled soy leftist pathetically attempted to pile on, weakly joining the intimidation effort by demanding Leo “go back to your country”—the height of irony at an open-borders rally.
The incident, captured on video and shared widely, shows how facts about immigration enforcement trigger outright rage from open-borders activists. While ICE works to secure America’s borders under policies prioritizing law and order, protesters treat any challenge to mass migration as a personal attack worth physical intimidation.
In the clip, Leo began by referencing data showing certain nationalities in the UK are disproportionately involved in sexual offences compared to native Brits. The protester immediately pivoted to colonial history.
“The BRITS that colonised the whole world you mean? That raped and pillaged the WHOLE WORLD to get the power they have THE BRITS,” he shouts.
“YEAH The BRITS who did THAT. And YOU guys have the audacity TO SAY AFGHANS AND SOMALIS DID WHAT?”
Leo responded evenly: “Well it’s not Audacity. It is just a fact.”
The man escalated, demanding: “IS IT NOT A FACT THAT Y’ALL COLONIZED THE WORLD THROUGH RAPE, MURDER AND PILLAGING, RIGHT OR WRONG?”
The guy then repeated insults—“you’re a piece of s,” “you’re a liar”—and got inches from Leo’s face, spitting as he ranted about how he “came out here for violence,” not to talk.
Leo stayed composed, pointing out the obvious: “This doesn’t make your argument look good. That’s the left. That is the degenerate violent left. You give facts. You get data. And they get violent.”
The exchange ended with the soy leftist in the background yelling “go back to your country.” Leo’s deadpan reply: “I live here.” When asked how he got there: “Aeroplane.”
On GB News, Leo later reflected on the moment. He explained he could have countered with historical facts—Britain’s role in abolishing the slave trade, Royal Navy efforts against it—but prioritized de-escalation and safety amid the aggression. “I was more concerned about watching his hands… making sure that he wasn’t about to swing for me.”
‘The clip demonstrates that the left lunatics are exactly that.’@Benleo reacts to the moment when an anti-ICE protester aggressively confronted him after he presented some simple facts on migrants in Britain.

He also addressed the police response, calling it “chilling” and “worrying.” Officers appeared uninterested after the threat, with one suggesting Leo’s questions were “provocative.” Leo noted: “It didn’t really seem like the police were bothered… presenting simple facts and asking what you’re doing here… is somehow provocative.”
‘It didn’t really seem like the police were bothered.’

This isn’t isolated. Protests at Delaney Hall have turned violent for over a week, with reports of objects thrown, entrances blocked, and even an ICE agent bitten. Detainees allege poor conditions, but federal officials call the strike a political stunt amid efforts to deport serious offenders.
The confrontation exposes a deeper hypocrisy. Leftist activists rage against “colonialism” while ignoring how British institutions—rule of law, abolitionism, and innovation—built much of the modern world migrants flock to. They excuse crime waves from unchecked migration by pointing to the past, yet demand America absorb endless inflows without consequences.
Leo’s calm handling underscores a key truth: facts don’t care about feelings. When open-borders ideology meets reality—rising sexual offences, strained resources, cultural clashes—it produces not debate but threats. This is the same mindset behind attacks on figures like Charlie Kirk and repeated assassination attempts on President Trump.
America First policies, like robust ICE operations, exist precisely because ignoring these patterns endangers citizens. The left’s violent reaction proves they know the data is irrefutable—they just refuse to accept it.
The left’s mask slips when challenged. They’re not tolerant—they’re unhinged when their narrative cracks.

Iran issues warning for northern Israel residents
Commander of the Iranian Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters Ali Abdoollahi issued a warning for the residents of northern Israel on Monday, as the threat of re-escalation between the two countries continues to rise.
According to Abdollahi, Tehran will renew the strikes if Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu delivers on his threat to strike Beirut's southern suburbs, Dahiyeh. "Given the repeated ceasefire violations by the Israeli regime, if such threats are carried out, we warn residents of northern areas and settlements in the occupied territories to evacuate to avoid harm," he said.
Earlier today, Iran's Tasnim News Agency reported that Tehran ended the negotiations with the United States due to Israel's intense strikes on Lebanon.

'Surgical Complications During Cesarean Delivery Linked to Postpartum Readmission Risk'
Patients who experienced severe perioperative surgical morbidity during cesarean delivery had a higher risk for postpartum readmission within 42 days than those who did not, with wound infections being the most common reason for readmission.
METHODOLOGY:
- Researchers conducted a repeated cross-sectional study using linked data from birth certificates and hospital discharge records for 703,079 cesarean deliveries performed in California hospitals between October 2015 and 2021.
- Severe perioperative surgical morbidity was identified using codes for surgical complications during hospitalization for cesarean delivery. These complications included bowel injury, bladder or genitourinary injury, uterine injury, broad ligament hematoma, pelvic or retroperitoneal hematoma, hysterectomy, vascular injury, wound complications, ileus or bowel obstruction, and shock.
- The primary outcome was all-cause postpartum readmission within 42 days after hospital discharge. Readmission rates were quantified for patients with and without severe perioperative surgical morbidity.
- Secondary analysis assessed the association separately for prelabor and intrapartum cesarean deliveries.
TAKEAWAY:
- Overall, 9880 patients experienced severe perioperative surgical morbidity. Patients with severe perioperative surgical morbidity had a higher risk for readmission up to 42 days postpartum than those without such morbidity (adjusted relative risk [aRR], 2.22; 95% CI, 2.00-2.46).
- Severe perioperative surgical morbidity was associated with a similar risk for readmission in patients who underwent intrapartum cesarean delivery (aRR, 2.35; 95% CI, 2.09-2.65) and those who underwent cesarean delivery before labor (aRR, 2.03; 95% CI, 1.72-2.40).
- Patients experiencing shock, ileus or bowel obstruction, or hysterectomy during hospitalization for delivery had the highest frequencies of readmission (9.3%, 7.2%, and 5.2%, respectively). The most frequent diagnosis for readmission was infection of an obstetric wound.
- The median time from discharge to readmission was similar for patients with and without severe perioperative surgical morbidity.
IN PRACTICE:
“Findings suggest that the presence of severe perioperative surgical morbidity may be of use for identifying patients who would benefit from closer postpartum follow-up. Optimizing surgical wound care and interventions to reduce surgical site and genital tract infection may be important for reducing readmission risk among patients with severe perioperative surgical morbidity,” the authors wrote.
SOURCE:
This study was led by Alexander Butwick, MS, of the Department of Anesthesia and Perioperative Care at the University of California San Francisco. It was published online on May 15, 2026, in Obstetrics & Gynecology.
LIMITATIONS:
Protocols for enhanced recovery after cesarean are meant for uncomplicated deliveries and may not apply to patients with severe perioperative surgical morbidity. The surgical morbidities and reasons for readmission were identified using diagnosis codes, which might not always be accurate, so the true incidence of issues might not be clear. This study focused specifically on cesarean deliveries and readmission risk in California, which may limit how the findings apply to other states in the US.
DISCLOSURES:
Internal funding was provided by the Department of Anesthesia and Perioperative Medicine, University of California San Francisco. The authors reported having no relevant conflicts of interest.
