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.

SYRIAN CIVIL WAR | Heavy Fighting FLARES-UP between the Druze & Bedouins in Conflict-zone Sweida

A fragile ceasefire has collapsed in Syria’s Sweida region as deadly clashes resume between Druze militias and Bedouin tribes. Both sides confirm renewed violence following the Syrian army’s withdrawal from key hotspots. Damascus denies redeploying forces, while Israel is blamed for stoking unrest and violating sovereignty. Bedouin leaders call for tribal mobilization amid fears of ethnic cleansing. Sweida remains a volatile flashpoint, with the Syrian government losing control and foreign actors—including Israel—shaping the worsening conflict through strikes and covert influence. #SyriaConflict #SweidaClashes #Druze #Bedouin #CeasefireCollapse #MiddleEastUnrest #SyrianCivilWar #TribalTensions #IsraelSyria #SyrianArmy #EthnicViolence #BreakingNews #SweidaCrisis #TribalMobilization #HumanRights #Airstrikes #Damascus #SOHR #IsraelInSyria #ForeignInfluence #FlashpointRegion #SecurityVacuum #BedouinTribes #DruzeMilitias #SyriaUnrest #WarUpdate #GolanHeightsTensions #RegionalInstability #SyrianObservatory #CivilWarSpillover #ViolenceReturns #SyriaCivilWar Also Read Airstrike Caught On Live TV: Israeli Missiles Hit Syrian Defence HQ In Damascus :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/airstrike-caught-on-live-tv-israeli-missiles-hit-syrian-defence-hq-in-damascus-7803237.html?ref=DMDesc Ceasefire Collapses In Sweida; Israel Responds With Strike On Syrian Army :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/ceasefire-collapses-in-sweida-israel-responds-with-strike-on-syrian-army-7803123.html?ref=DMDesc Syria's Government and Kurdish Forces Still Disagree on Merging Plans After Recent Talks :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/syrias-government-kurds-odds-merging-forces-us-envoy-011-7796579.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.194~

Epstein was an agent of Israeli Spy Agency Mossad? Ex-PM Naftali Bennett answers Scathing questions

Former Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett has firmly denied claims that Jeffrey Epstein was linked to Mossad, calling them “categorically false” and a “vicious lie.” The response came after Tucker Carlson implied Epstein worked for Israeli intelligence, questioning his wealth and connections. Bennett slammed Carlson for spreading conspiracy theories and said Mossad never ran a blackmail operation. Carlson has since doubled down, demanding an interview and accusing Bennett of threats, while MAGA circles push for Epstein’s “client list” to be revealed. #JeffreyEpstein #Mossad #TuckerCarlson #NaftaliBennett #Trump #ConspiracyTheories #MAGA #EspionageClaims #EpsteinScandal #Israel #MossadDenial #BennettVsCarlson #FoxNews #SpyGames #EpsteinFiles #ClientList #DeepStateDebate #USPolitics #ForeignIntelligence #DOJ #BreakingNews #EpsteinNetwork #Disinformation #AntiIsraelClaims #CarlsonSpeech #MiddleEastPolitics ~HT.410~ED.420~

Russia RIPS Israel over IDF Strikes on Syrian Territory | Condemns ‘Flagrant violation of Int'l Law’

Russia has fiercely condemned Israel's airstrikes on Syrian territory, including near the presidential palace, calling them a "flagrant violation of international law" and a threat to regional stability. Moscow reaffirmed its support for Syria’s sovereignty under the Al-Sharaa regime and warned against any foreign interference. The IDF defended its actions, citing retaliation for Syrian regime moves against Druze civilians. Russia, however, urged peaceful dialogue and national unity in Syria as the only path to lasting stability and an end to foreign intervention. #Russia #Israel #Syria #IDF #Airstrikes #MiddleEast #InternationalLaw #Sovereignty #SyrianCrisis #Moscow #IsraelSyriaTensions #DruzeCommunity #AlSharaaRegime #UNCharter #RegionalStability #Geopolitics #PeacefulDialogue #RussiaSpeaksOut #BreakingNews #MilitaryStrike #NoForeignInterference #IsraelDefenseForces #IDFStrike #SyrianPresidency #DiplomacyFirst #SyrianUnity #TerritorialIntegrity #GlobalTensions #RussiaIsrael #MideastConflicts Also Read ‘She Used Me for Money’: Israeli Father’s Struggle to See Daughters After Gokarna Rescue :: https://www.oneindia.com/bengaluru/she-used-me-for-money-israeli-father-s-struggle-to-see-daughters-after-gokarna-rescue-011-7804789.html?ref=DMDesc India Indicates Conditional Approach to Reviving Russia-India-China RIC Framework :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/india-non-committal-on-revival-of-ric-framework-011-7804519.html?ref=DMDesc Airstrike Caught On Live TV: Israeli Missiles Hit Syrian Defence HQ In Damascus :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/airstrike-caught-on-live-tv-israeli-missiles-hit-syrian-defence-hq-in-damascus-7803237.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.194~GR.124~
