ACADEMY SITREP – ISRAEL CONDUCTS PREEMPTIVE STRIKE AGAINST HEZBOLLAH TO THWART LARGER ATTACK August 25, 2024 | https://lnkd.in/eRkQ8C6s What has Happened: -Early this morning, the IDF struck over 40 targets in Lebanon destroying thousands of rockets/launchers with about 100 jet fighters after it detected that Hezbollah was preparing for a major attack against northern and central Israel. -Following the pre-emptive strikes, Hezbollah fired over 300 rockets and drones into northern Israel targeting military facilities, but many of these munitions were intercepted. -Israel had been bracing for weeks for Hezbollah to retaliate for the killing of senior Hezbollah commander Fuad Shukr in Beirut on July 30th. -Hezbollah stated that the attack was successful, and its military operation had “finished for the day,” but there was little evidence of any major damage (however there was one confirmed Israeli military fatality and limited reports of injuries). -While the IDF said that it was still carrying out air attacks against Hezbollah targets, the situation seems to be de-escalating. -The strikes this morning do not seem to have affected the ceasefire talks that continued today with mediators from the United States, Egypt, and Qatar meeting in Cairo with an Israeli delegation.

Thank you to SIFMA's Jennifer Jacoby for having a conversation with Chance Mims of Academy Securities: https://lnkd.in/dUAbE2Rz The military is one of the most diverse organizations in the world. It requires a diverse skill set and grit and we learn just how easily veterans can translate those skills into the financial services industry. In the next episode of our SIFMA DE&I Podcast series, we sat down with Academy Securities Founder and CEO, Chance Mims to discuss the nation’s first veteran-owned and operated firm and their commitment to recruiting and empowering military veterans. Chance shares insights on Academy Securities’ social mission to combat veteran unemployment including prioritizing female veterans and the focus on finding nontraditional Wall Street pedigrees. He highlights how the industry can harness similar recruitment strategies by having veterans contribute to the entire process from interviewing to hiring to mentorship. #academysecurities #missiondriven Academy Asset Management #veteranhiring
