A major escalation was narrowly avoided as the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) intercepted a ballistic missile launched from Yemen by the Iran-backed Houthi rebels. Sirens rang out across Jerusalem and central Israel as the incoming threat was neutralized in mid-air by Israeli air defense systems. Magen David Adom confirmed there were no injuries or damage reported. Israeli authorities have since declared the situation under control, but tensions remain high as the region braces for potential retaliation. Watch dramatic visuals and real-time updates as Israel faces another direct missile threat.

Hamas has released new hostage videos showing Israeli captive Dalal in a starving state, igniting nationwide shock and international condemnation. Iris Haim, mother of slain hostage Yotam, is urging Israel to surrender to save the remaining captives in Gaza. Her son was tragically killed by IDF fire while escaping Hamas captivity. As protests erupt across Tel Aviv, Israeli PM Netanyahu faces mounting pressure. Meanwhile, Hamas leaders defend the October 7 attack as a âstrategic success,â claiming it led to global recognition of Palestine. French President Macron called the videos âabject cruelty.â

Thousands gathered in Tel Avivâs Habima Square to protest Israelâs war in Gaza, with former IDF soldiers and Palestinian activists demanding an immediate end to the conflict. Protestors urged mass civil disobedience and called on Israeli soldiers to refuse military service. Actor Yossi Zabari shocked many by saying âthe word genocide frightens Israelis more than the act itself.â Peace organizers plan to set up a âstruggle tentâ in Tel Aviv as calls grow louder for an end to what they call a âgovernment of death.â

In a harrowing video released by Saraya Al-Quds, Hamas' military wing, captured IDF soldier Ron Breslavsky makes a chilling plea for food and water, revealing the brutal conditions of his nearly two-year captivity in Gaza. Emaciated and visibly distressed, Breslavsky blames Israel's Operation Gideon Chariots for the suffering endured by both hostages and Gazan civilians. His emotional message highlights starvation, medical neglect, and the mental toll of warâaccusing Israeli leadership of abandoning its own.

A political firestorm erupted after former Trump strategist Steve Bannon publicly slammed Donald Trump for allegedly prioritizing Israel over American interests. Bannonâs fury followed the release of a now-altered Trump policy memo which originally included a controversial clause â denying federal disaster aid to U.S. states that boycott Israel. That clause has since been removed, according to documents shared by conservative influencer Charlie Kirk.
However, states will still be required to dismantle certain DEI (Diversity, Equity, Inclusion) programs â particularly those perceived as anti-white â to access $1.9 billion in federal emergency funding. Bannon blasted Trump, branding him "Israel First" and accusing him of betraying America First values. The explosive memo and its quiet revisions have ignited debates within Trumpâs own base, exposing fractures over foreign loyalty, funding conditions, and the 2024 campaign's ideological direction.

Israel is furious. Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar has condemned the recent moves by the UK, France, and Canada to recognize a Palestinian state â calling it a âpure prize for terrorâ and a âgift to Hamas.â Speaking at a press conference in Jerusalem, Saar slammed the announcements as âimmoralâ and âpolitically foolish,â warning that these decisions reward the very actors responsible for ongoing violence.
The statement comes amid growing international outrage over the humanitarian crisis in Gaza â but Israel argues that such recognition sends the wrong message and emboldens terrorism. As Septemberâs U.N. General Assembly approaches, global divisions over the Israel-Palestine war are reaching a boiling point.

Tensions in Gaza reached a breaking point after an Israeli airstrike struck an apartment in the Al-Maqousi Towers in northwest Gaza, leaving multiple civilians dead and many others severely injured. As sirens echoed through the area, chaos and devastation unfolded yet again. The strike comes amid rising pressure on Israeli leadership from within its own ranks.
Over 600 retired Israeli security officials, including former heads of intelligence, have written a joint letter to U.S. President Donald Trump, urging him to intervene and pressure Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to end the war in Gaza. The officials claim Hamas no longer poses a strategic threat and that continued warfare is only prolonging suffering. Despite indirect ceasefire talks stalling, Netanyahu is reportedly pushing to intensify military operations. The internal dissent reflects a growing concern that Netanyahuâs decisions are politically motivated, risking further bloodshed and regional instability.
