The @Likud_Party jingle at the victory party in #Jerusalem about 8 hours ago, in the early hours of Wed, as exit polls suggest opposition leader and former prime minister @netanyahu is set for a comeback. Thank you @epieprz for sharing this 🎞️: /1
The moment @netanyahu left the stage at the @Likud_Party victory bash in #Jerusalem about 8 hours ago. At this point, about 10% of the ballots had been counted and "it looks good" for Bibi's return, @epieprz said while sharing this clip with me from the venue: /2

@netanyahu's return is big news, esp considering his tough stance on #Iran's nuclear program and presence in #Syria, but it is @itamarbengvir who is the real winner: a fringe operator who finally gets into the mainstream. #IsraelElections2022

#Pakistan Army requests @GovtofPakistan to initiate legal action against #PTI Chairman #ImranKhan for the "baseless and irresponsible allegations against the [Army] and a senior Army officer," describing them as "highly regrettable and strongly condemned" in a #ISPR statement. /1

The attack on #ImranKhan today was amateurish and clumsy. Could have been lethal but wasn't. The way Khan and his party are exaggerating its planning and execution without any investigation, shows design to extract political milage and turn the tables on the Govt and Military.
Apparently #ImranKhan party activists protesting outside a military building in #Peshawar, a sign of the radicalization of a generation of Pakistanis under #ImranKhan 2011-2022. #PTI incited protests without waiting for a probe by its own Govt in #Punjab where attack occurred. /2
Result of #ImranKhan and #PTI's incessant anti-military incitement. Khan's party rules the province and runs the police service where the attack on Khan occurred today. PTI Govt is yet to release its findings. /3

Three senior officials from #ImranKhan's party have rushed to accuse @GovtofPakistan of involvement in the attack. A probe is in early stage, with the reported arrest of the attacker(s). Unclear if these officials have evidence on their claims. PM Shehbaz Sharif has condemned.
A single burst from likely an automatic weapon targeted #ImranKhan when he was on top of a container truck with aides in #Gujranwala/#Punjab Province, hitting Khan in his right leg & others; Khan was taken to his bullet-proof car instead of ambulance for fear of a second attack.
Conflicting reports on the identity of attacker & whether there was a second attacker. Media is reporting a lawmaker from #ImranKhan's party as saying his guard has been mistakenly identified as the attacker. None of these reports are officially confirmed but circulating online.

President #Biden's remarks on #Pakistan

Apparently casual remarks on #Pakistan by President #Biden at a Democratic Party event have been highlighted in 🇵🇰 media. Ousted ex-PM #ImranKhan is trying to use them to destabilize the Govt; promote anti-Americanism.

Some facts. /1
President #Biden's remarks came while talking about his relationship with President #XiJinping and #Russia when he made two references to #Pakistan, one in the context of China's ties to #India + 🇵🇰, and a remark on Pakistan's stability and the safety of its nuclear weapons. /2
#Pakistan is not taking #Biden's remarks out of context, recognizing this was not a policy statement, and has given the #US Amb Donald Blome in #Islamabad a chance to explain the context and position of Biden Admin while denying the perception of instability of the state. /3
