Thousands of ultra-Orthodox Jews packed the streets and sidewalks for blocks around the Israeli Consulate in New York City on Sunday to protest issues including a potential end of an exemption for religious students from compulsory service in Israel’s military. The protest at the consulate, a block from the United Nations campus in Manhattan, illustrated the complex relationship between Israel and segments of the large population of very religious Jews in New York and its suburbs. The two influential, and often rival, grand rebbes of the Satmar community both called on adherents to participate in the demonstration. It comes after...

When a grenade shredded his leg during a botched hostage rescue mission in Gaza, Israeli soldier Barak wanted to shoot himself to avoid being taken captive by Palestinian terrorists. But it’s the sound of the grenade exploding that haunts him months later. His nightmares were amplified by persistent tinnitus, and he described being in a state of “shock all the time.” Einav Ben Hur, head of social services for the Defense Ministry in Tel Aviv, has seen the number of cases like Barak’s soar since the start of the war in Gaza. “I think it is important to provide treatment...

Qatar’s vocal condemnation of Israel’s operation reveals a deeper, more troubling reality: the Arab-Islamic regime has been a key enabler of the genocidal Hamas leadership. By consistently supporting Hamas, both through direct funding and media manipulation, Qatar has played a dangerous role in perpetuating the cycle of violence. Qatar’s state-backed media outlets, like 'Al Jazeera' and 'Middle East Eye', have been vocal in pushing narratives that fuel anti-Israel sentiment, much like the Turkish Islamist dictator Recep Tayyip Erdoğan uses 'Anadolu' and 'TRT' to spread Islamist propaganda. But it goes beyond mere media influence—Qatar has actively positioned itself as a “mediator”...

It was one of the most horrific stories of the entire Israel-Hamas conflict, or any conflict. Back in late May, a retired Green Beret named Anthony Aguilar, who had been working with the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF), claimed that he witnessed an incident of such shocking heartlessness and inhumanity that it seemed destined to be remembered as one of the most cruel war crimes in the entire history of the world. There was just one catch: it has now been definitively established that not a word of it was true.Aguilar said that while he was working with the GHF, he...

Defense Minister Israel Katz says Israel has issued its first formal evacuation notice to residents of a multi-story building in Gaza City ahead of an impending strike, warning that IDF operations there will only intensify until Hamas agrees to Israel’s terms to a ceasefire deal. “The bolt is now being removed from the gates of Hell in Gaza,” he posts on X. “Once the door is opened, it will not be closed, and IDF operations will intensify — until Hamas’s murderers and rapists accept Israel’s conditions for ending the war, first and foremost the release of all hostages and disarmament...

Israeli defense minister Israel Katz issued an ultimatum to Hamas: surrender, release all hostages, and disarm, or see Gaza City — the group’s last stronghold — destroyed.

The Times of Israel reported: “Defense Minister Israel Katz warns that Hamas will soon face a stark choice: either accept Israel’s conditions to end the war — including...
