"And I have found both freedom and safety in my madness, the freedom of loneliness and the safety from being understood, for those who understand us enslave something in us. But let me not be too proud of my safety. Even a Thief in a jail is safe from another thief. "

'Israel' faces crippling naval blockade from Iran, Hezbollah: Reports - Al-Mayadeen

 "Israel" is reportedly suffering from a de facto naval blockade imposed by Iran and Hezbollah, according to a recent report from the Israeli news outlet Walla! This blockade, which has come into effect "before any missile strikes", has already caused severe operational paralysis in key Israeli ports, and experts warn that the situation could deteriorate further if the ongoing war escalates.

Blockade Without Missiles: A Strategic Move

The report details how this blockade has been strategically enforced by Iran and Hezbollah as a preemptive measure "in anticipation of the expected responses to the assassination of Hezbollah commander martyr Fuad Shukr in Beirut's southern suburbs and Hamas political bureau chief martyr Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran." Despite no missiles being fired, the blockade has effectively crippled "Israel's" maritime trade routes.

Since November, the port of Eilat has been non-operational due to ongoing Yemeni operations in the Red Sea. As a result, shipments destined for Eilat have been redirected to the ports of Haifa and Ashdod. However, with insurance costs skyrocketing and the increasing reluctance of shipowners to send vessels to these ports, the crisis is deepening.
