<h2>Traffic jams are a common occurrence, especially when accidents happen or when Malaysians <em>balik kampung</em>.</p>
<p>However, one videographer seems to have found a way to make productive use of his time.</h2>

<div class="">
<p>TikTok user and photographer @nataresygrph, also known as Natasya Alias, recently shared a <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener" href="https://www.tiktok.com/@nataresyagrph/video/7331771242862644498">video</a> of her and her partner heading to Meru, Ipoh for a wedding shoot.</p>
<p>Unfortunately, she and&nbsp;<a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener" href="https://www.tiktok.com/@ariffaiman96">Ariff Aiman</a>, a fellow photographer and videographer, found themselves stuck in traffic due to an accident on the two-lane highway.</p>
<p>Seeing as cars were at a standstill, drivers started to get out of their vehicles to stretch their legs and have a chat. Or in their case, whip out their drone to capture some footage.</p>
<p><b>Here&#8217;s what they captured:</b></p>

<p>With soothing music playing in the background, the drone captured a glimpse of the beautiful landscape while flying over hundreds of cars stuck in the jam.</p>
<p>According to Natasya, the accident was quite a distance from them,&nbsp;which gave them time to fly the drone and see what was causing the hold-up.</p>
<p>Speaking to SAYS, she said they left their house in Sungkai, Perak at 6.30am, got stuck at 8.30am, and finally reached the venue in Meru at 1pm. This meant they were stuck in traffic for a total of five hours.</p>

<h2>Hamas deputy chief Saleh al-Arouri was killed on Tuesday night, 3 January, in an Israeli drone strike on Beirut&#8217;s southern suburbs of Dahiyeh, a stronghold of the allied Lebanese militant group Hezbollah, signalling the conflict between Hamas and Israel could be expanding to engulf more of the region</h2>
</div>
<div class="segment-body">
<div class="text">
<div class="">
<p><p>In response to questions from Reuters, the Israeli military said it does not respond to reports in the foreign media.</p>
<p>Lebanon&#8217;s national news agency said the drone struck a&nbsp;Hamas&nbsp;office. Two security sources said the strike had targeted a meeting between&nbsp;Hamas&nbsp;officials and Lebanon&#8217;s Sunni Islamist Jama&#8217;a Islamiya faction and left a total of four Palestinians and three Lebanese dead.</p>
<p>The strike marks the first targeted assassination of a&nbsp;Hamas&nbsp;official outside Palestinian Territories since the Palestinian group&#8217;s deadly assault on Israeli territory on 7 October.</p>
<p>Mark Regev, an adviser to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, told MSNBC that Israel had not taken responsibility for this attack, but &#8220;whoever did it, it must be clear: That this was not an attack on the Lebanese state.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Whoever did this did a surgical strike against the&nbsp;Hamas&nbsp;leadership,&#8221; Regev said in the interview.</p>

<div class="">
<p><p>He had spent time recently in both Lebanon and Qatar, which has mediated talks between&nbsp;Hamas&nbsp;and Israel including on hostages&nbsp;Hamas&nbsp;took in its 7 October assault. The US, which brands&nbsp;Hamas&nbsp;a terrorist group, had last year offered USD5 million (RM23 million) for information on Arouri.</p>
<p>Hamas&nbsp;confirmed Arouri&#8217;s killing and said Qassam Brigade officials Samir Findi Abu Amer and Azzam Al-Aqraa Abu Ammar were also killed.</p>
<p>Hamas&nbsp;chief&nbsp;Ismail Haniyeh on Tuesday said Arouri&#8217;s killing is &#8220;terrorist act&#8221;, a violation of Lebanon&#8217;s sovereignty and an expansion of Israel&#8217;s hostility against Palestinians.</p>
<p>Islamic Jihad vowed revenge in a statement, saying, &#8220;This crime will not go unpunished and the resistance will continue until the occupation is removed.&#8221;</p>
<p>Iran said the killing would further galvanise the fight against Israel, while Yemen&#8217;s Houthi movement expressed condolences.</p>
<p>In Ramallah in the Israeli-occupied West Bank, hundreds took to the streets to urge retaliation, shouting &#8220;Revenge, revenge, Qassam.&#8221;</p>

<h2>&#8220;New crime&#8221;</h2>
</div>
<div class="segment-body">
<div class="text">
<div class="">
<p><p>A Reuters witness in Dahiyeh saw firefighters and paramedics gathered around a multi-storey building with a gaping hole in what appeared to be the third floor. Limbs and other pieces of flesh could be seen on the roadside.</p>
<p>Lebanon&#8217;s caretaker prime minister Najib Mikati called the strike a &#8220;new Israeli crime&#8221; and said it was an attempt to pull Lebanon into war. His office said he asked Lebanon&#8217;s foreign minister to file a complaint to the United Nations Security Council.</p>
<p>In a written statement, Hezbollah said the attack &#8220;will not go without a response or punishment&#8221;, adding that the resistance has &#8220;its finger on the trigger&#8221;. It announced an attack on Israeli forces across the border but did not specify whether it was in response to Arouri&#8217;s killing.</p>
<p>Hezbollah&nbsp;chief&nbsp;Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah plans an address on Wednesday, 4 January, to commemorate the fourth anniversary of the killing of Iranian Quds Force&nbsp;chief&nbsp;Qassem Suleimani in a US drone strike on Baghdad.</p>
<p>In a televised speech in August, Nasrallah had cautioned Israel against carrying out any assassinations on Lebanese soil, vowing a &#8220;severe reaction.&#8221;</p>
<p>Hezbollah controls security in the southern suburb of Dahiyeh. In 2019, two Israeli drones crashed in the district.</p>
<p>Hezbollah has been exchanging near-daily fire with Israel since&nbsp;Hamas&nbsp;carried out the 7 October attack, but the violence has mostly been limited to the border region between Lebanon and Israel.</p>
<p>Israeli air strikes and shelling have killed more than 100 Hezbollah fighters and nearly two dozen civilians since then, including children, elderly people, and several journalists.</p>
<p>Israel says 1,200 people were killed and 240 were taken hostage on 7 October. Israel has responded with a nearly three-month-old offensive in&nbsp;Hamas-run Gaza where Palestinian health officials say the death toll has surpassed 22,000.</p>

<h2>Malaysians are applauding Vico, a local chocolate malt beverage brand, for its clever <a href="https://says.com/my/stories/tagged/sapotlokal" target="_blank" rel="noopener">#SapotLokal</a> post published on 1 January to usher in the new year</h2>

<p>The <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener" href="https://www.instagram.com/p/C1hgInQJR5L/?hl=en">30-second video</a>&nbsp;showcases a drone display against the KLCC skyline. The drones form a flag-like shape as their <b>light colours transition from</b> <b>red to green to yellow</b>, accompanied by a #sapotlokal hashtag hovering below.</p>
<p>As the spectacle continues, the PETRONAS Twin Towers are illuminated in a yellow glow, and the drones reposition themselves to spell out &#8220;Vico 2024&#8221; and &#8220;Vico 30th Anniversary&#8221;.</p>
<p>The Instagram post&#8217;s caption reads, &#8220;There are <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener" href="https://says.com/my/news/klcc-countdown-fireworks-cancellation-draws-mixed-reactions-from-malaysians">no fireworks</a> this year. So, we arranged a drone display to make everyone smile.</p>
<p>&#8220;We hope this brings some cheer to your 2024, even though <b>everything you see <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener" href="https://says.com/my/fun/video-vfx-artist-brings-merdeka-118-life-celebrate-hari-kebangsaan">here is edited</a>. But it looks real, right?</b></p>
<p>&#8220;Happy New Year, everyone! Vico wishes you good health, happiness, and always support local.&#8221;</p>

<p>Many netizens noticed the subtle message that was &#8216;hidden&#8217; in Vico&#8217;s post.</p>
<p>&#8220;Wow! It&#8217;s the best! It changed from green, <i>ehem ehem&#8230;</i>, to yellow! #SapotLokal!&#8221; read a top comment.</p>
<p>&#8220;That&#8217;s right. I just realised Vico tastes better than [the other brand],&#8221; an Instagram user wrote.</p>
<p>&#8220;Vico nailed it! Green to yellow flag is a genius move. #SapotLokal,&#8221; added another netizen, while another person said, &#8220;I have changed to drinking Vico. It&#8217;s delicious.&#8221;</p>
