Netanyahu says social media is responsible for declining support for Israel among young Americans, claiming foreign countries use “bot farms” to undermine “American sympathy for Israel.”

Netanyahu claims China supported parts of Iran’s missile manufacturing program and says Beijing should reconsider.

Netanyahu:

In the digital age we live in, people just scroll and scroll and scroll, and the sense of history becomes dim.

Netanyahu:

I think Mojtaba Khamenei is alive. What his condition is, it’s hard to say. He’s holed up in some bunker or in some secret place.

Netanyahu says “jealousy” and “envy” are among the reasons for antisemitism.

Netanyahu says some Arab states want to “strengthen [their] alliance with Israel” because that “deters Iran.”

Iran executed Erfan Shakourzadeh, a 29-year-old aerospace engineering master's student at Iran University of Science and Technology who worked on satellite projects.

He was convicted of espionage for the CIA and Mossad, accused of sharing classified satellite data, employee information, and receiving cryptocurrency payments after contacts via LinkedIn, WhatsApp, and Google calls.

The body of 1st Lt. Kendrick Lamont Key Jr., 27, has been recovered off the coast of Morocco, U.S. Army Europe and Africa confirmed.

Key, an Air Defense Artillery officer, went missing on May 2 along with a second U.S. soldier near the Cap Draa Training Area while off-duty hiking during the African Lion 2026 exercise.

Reports indicate one soldier fell from a cliff into the Atlantic and the other jumped in to help.

Search operations for the second soldier — involving over 1,000 U.S. and Moroccan personnel — are still underway.

Ukraine's Verkhovna Rada registered draft law, proposing to recognize the Gagauz — a Turkic-speaking Orthodox Christian people numbering about 26,000–32,000 in Ukraine, mostly in southern Odesa Oblast — as an indigenous people of Ukraine.

The bill, initiated by five Servant of the People MPs led by Ruslan Horbenko, would expand the current list (Crimean Tatars, Karaites, Krymchaks) and grant the Gagauz enhanced cultural, linguistic, and educational rights, including Gagauz-language schooling.

The move follows FM Andrii Sybiha's October 2025 backing of the step, calling the Gagauz "an important bridge" between Ukraine and the Turkic world.

EU's Kaja Kallas:

If we give the right to Russia to appoint negotiator on our behalf, you know, that would not be very wise.

I think Gerhard Schröder has been the high-level lobbyist for Russian state-owned companies, so it's clear why Putin wants him to be the person — so that actually, you know, he would be sitting on both sides of the table.

EU's Kaja Kallas:

Our adversaries are not sleeping. So clearly they want to increase the influence in Europe.

We unfortunately already see this in sports organizations, where, you know, Russians are let to compete like nothing has happened.

EU's Kaja Kallas:

We saw that this ceasefire that Putin wanted was only very cynical — to protect his parade, whereas they were actually attacking civilians in Ukraine.

Ukraine kept to the ceasefire, like previously offered ceasefires, unconditionally. Russia didn't really stand up to this.

Iran's FM Spokesperson Esmail Baghaei:

Iran has proven to be a responsible power in the region, and at the same time, we are not bullies — rather, we are anti-bullies. Just look at our conduct.

Were we the ones who launched a military campaign against America thousands of miles away? Were we the ones who killed 170 innocent people in a single day? Are we the ones bullying Cuba, Venezuela, and other countries in the Western Hemisphere? Were we the ones who, during a diplomatic process, committed such a great crime — twice?

Is attacking a country, destroying its infrastructure, and assassinating the leader and citizens of a country an example of responsible behavior?

IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir warned the Knesset on Sunday that the military urgently needs thousands more soldiers after nearly three years of multi-front war.

"I deal with multi-front war and defeating the enemy. To keep doing that, the IDF needs more soldiers immediately," he said.

"The army will fall apart if everyone serves only on their own terms," Zamir said.
