11 posts held, back to 18 September 2024 — the reader has not yet reached the start of this channel’s public history, so older posts may sit further back, unread. Read across 1 page of Telegram’s post history, 20 posts per page.
Nothing published in the last 30 days. ERR and ER are rolling 30-day measures, so there is nothing to compute — we hold 11 posts for this entry, the most recent from 5 April 2026. An engagement rate over an empty window would be a number about nothing.
Lifetime counters from Telegram’s own channel header, read 13 August 2026 — not the date at the top of this page, which is when the subscriber count was last read. Below Telegram’s rounding threshold, so these counts are exact.
Measured directly from 2 videos with a duration reading, out of the posts we hold for this channel — not this channel’s whole posting history, only the sample this register has actually read. An exact reading to the second, taken from the post itself rather than from Telegram’s own rounded chrome, so it carries no ≈ mark.
🇮🇱🇵🇸 The Israeli government has achieved great success: it reduced the area of Gaza by 50% and decreased the Palestinian population by hundreds of thousands. The project of seizure is practically complete. @orientaleast | #СекторГаза
⏺🇮🇷🇮🇱Yesterday Iran sent a clear signal that it is not to be trifled with and should not be underestimated. The Iron Dome was overloaded and could not cope with such a large number of missiles, resulting in multiple hits. However, once again there are no confirmed facts of the destruction of any military base or the elimination of any Israeli general, although there are civilian casualties and video recordings of h…
🔴🇮🇷🇺🇸🇮🇱The Iranian President said that "the leaders of the United States and European countries lied when they promised a ceasefire if Tehran did not respond to the murder of the head of the Hamas politburo" The fact that they can lie is far from news. The question is more for you. What did they believe? 🔻The fact is that if Iran felt strong, it would not have paid attention to this proposal and would have acted at…
🔴🔴 "Hezbollah Shura Council elects Hashim Safi al-Din as Hezbollah Secretary General," — Saudi media outlet Al-Hadath @orientaleast
🔴🇮🇱🇮🇷🇱🇧It looks like a full-scale ground operation is about to begin. Israel is determined to destroy Hezbollah and turn Lebanon into another Gaza Strip. It is unlikely that Hezbollah will be able to single-handedly resist a country armed and supported by the United States and other Western countries. 🔻The only intrigue remains: will Iran stand up for its Lebanese brainchild or will it make do with "remote" support…
⏺🇮🇱🇱🇧Israel has always hit harder. This is embedded in the country's military policy Hezbollah is no exception - it is subjected to much larger-scale strikes than it inflicts itself. Multiple shelling of southern Lebanon, airstrikes on Beirut, the elimination of senior commanders, all this is evidence of this. 🔻The infographic shows the visual dynamics of the number of cross-border strikes by Israel and Hezbollah …
🔴🇱🇧🇮🇱Hezbollah has been continuously shelling Israel with missiles and kamikaze drones for 8 hours now, while the IDF claims that most of the missiles are being shot down by the air defense system. Today, pro-Iranian militias in Iraq 🇮🇷🇮🇶 also stood up for Hezbollah. They claimed responsibility for four missile strikes and drone strikes on Israel. The video shows the landings in Haifa. 🔻It is interesting that Isra…

🔴🇮🇱🇺🇳🇱🇧"We will inform the Security Council of the closure of the diplomatic window to resolve the conflict with Lebanon", — the Israeli mission to the United Nations 🔻if true then the only solution is war. In fact, this is a declaration of war, Israel directly says: "We need war!". @orientaleast
🔴🇮🇷🇮🇱The fact that the late Iranian President Raisi, who died in a helicopter crash several months ago, was seen carrying a pager has increased suspicions that the helicopter was shot down by Israel. @orientaleast
🔴🇮🇱🇱🇧According to the latest information, Israel will soon define the north of the country as the main combat zone "Israel is preparing for the Third Lebanon War," - Israeli Channel 14, which supports the Likud party. 🔻It is unlikely that Hezbollah will leave today's attack unanswered. And this is what Israel needs so that a full-scale ground operation looks justified in the eyes of the "international community" of…
Showing the 11 most recent of 11 posts we hold for @orientaleast. View and reaction counts are the latest single reading for each post, not a live figure, and a recent post is still accumulating both. A view count marked ≈ was rounded by Telegram before we ever saw it — t.me prints views in full below 1,000 and to three significant figures above, so ≈1,200,000 means somewhere between 1,150,000 and 1,249,999. Unmarked counts are exact. Text is reproduced from the public post preview and truncated for length.
Names
Channels on the register whose handles appear in this channel's posts.
A mention is a weaker signal than a forward and is counted separately for that reason — naming a channel is not republishing it, and a handle in a post body is easy to place deliberately. The post counts beside each row below are distinct posts in which the handle appeared, from posts we have read on both sides — the “Named by N registered channels” figure above is a different count, of distinct NAMING CHANNELS rather than posts, and is not the sum of the rows under it.
A live page changes as we take new readings, so a citation should name the measurement it is based on, not just the URL. The line below cites the subscriber count as measured 13 August 2026 — this entry's latest reading, not the date you are reading this.
