Ultra-Orthodox Jews Forced to Serve in IDF? 7,000 to Fight for Israel After Fierce Backlash &Protest

In a controversial move that has sparked fierce protests and political backlash, Israel's Defense Minister, Yoav Gallant, approved the issuance of 7,000 military draft orders for Ultra-Orthodox Jews (Haredim).

This decision marks a significant shift in Israel's long-standing policy of exempting religious students from military service, and has led to heated debates over the role of religion in national defense.

With the country already in the midst of conflict, this move comes amid growing pressure from Israel's secular majority and tensions with the Ultra-Orthodox political parties.

Hamas Releases New Video: Hostage David's Wife Cries for Husband's Life, Pleads For U.S Help

Hamas has released a controversial propaganda video that mocks the desperate plea from Sharon Cunio, the wife of hostage David Cunio, for proof of life. Sharon’s heartbreaking request for a video showing her husband alive was met with an older clip of the family in Gaza, with no new information about David’s condition. This comes as the Siegel family continues to advocate for their loved ones still held by Hamas, including Aviva Siegel’s husband, Keith. The Siegel family urges the U.S. government to take action and bring hostages home from Gaza, where over 100 hostages remain in captivity. In this video, we dive into the painful reality of hostage situations and the ongoing plea for justice and action. #HamasPropaganda #HostageCrisis #DavidCunio #SharonCunio #HostageVideos #IsraelNews #GazaHostages #FreeTheHostages #HamasTerror #HumanRights #MiddleEastCrisis #HostageAdvocacy #USSupport #HostageAwareness #SiegelFamily #GazaWar Also Read Israel's Netanyahu Dispatches Mossad Director to Qatar for Gaza Ceasefire Negotiations :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israel-netanyahu-mossad-director-gaza-ceasefire-talks-qatar-011-4039991.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Threatens 'All Hell' If Hamas Hostages Aren't Released By Inauguration :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-threatens-all-hell-if-hamas-hostages-arent-released-by-inauguration-4036605.html?ref=DMDesc Israel Defense Force Confirms Death Of Hamas Commander Abd Al-Hadi Sabah In Drone Strike :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israel-defense-force-confirms-death-of-hamas-commander-abd-al-hadi-sabah-in-drone-strike-011-4030545.html?ref=DMDesc

Houthi Missile Blitz Forces USS Harry Truman to Flee Battlefield | New Chapter in the US-Yemen War? [Video]

Houthi Missile Blitz Forces USS Harry Truman to Flee Battlefield | New Chapter in the US-Yemen War?

In a dramatic escalation of tensions, Yemeni forces launched a fierce missile and drone assault against the USS Harry Truman in the Red Sea, forcing the American aircraft carrier to retreat to the northernmost part of the sea. The 9-hour operation, described by Houthi officials as a resounding success, marks the fifth such attack on the US warship since its deployment to the region. Brigadier General Yahya Saree confirmed that multiple cruise missiles and kamikaze drones were used to target the strike group, successfully driving the USS Truman away. This latest assault is framed as a direct response to the US's military involvement in supporting Israel's actions in Gaza. Yemeni forces have vowed to continue their operations until Israel halts its aggression and the siege on Palestine ends. The bold strike also serves as a statement of Yemen’s growing military capabilities, with new weapons like the Palestine-2 hypersonic missile designed to bypass advanced defense systems. As tensions mount in the region, experts question whether this incident signals the beginning of an all-out war between the US and Yemen. #HouthisVsUS #RedSeaConflict #USSHarryJTruman #YemeniHypersonics #MiddleEastWar #USWarshipsUnderFire #HouthisStrikeBack #GazaSiegeRetaliation #RedSeaShowdown #HypersonicMissiles #USMilitaryCrisis #YemenStrikesUS #9HourBattle #HouthiOffensive #EscalationInRedSea
