Q: Where are you planning to be on the eve of the holiday?

Netanyahu: That’s a secret. I can’t tell you.

Q: I understand that something serious is planned?

Netanyahu: It's something that we're tracking and seeing.

Netanyahu on the alleged attempt against his son Yair:

I can only say that there was such an attempt. It was significant. The security services acted quickly.

They even brought reinforcements from forces we had in the United States in order to evacuate him quickly from the United States. This is completely real.

And this happened as a result of simply irresponsible — really reckless — behavior by several journalists and other people who exposed Yair’s location in real time: the exact address where he was staying, a photograph of the apartment, the floor number, the apartment number.

Kremlin:

Putin has ordered that no strikes be carried out on Kyiv for the next three days, starting at midnight tonight.

Putin:

With the citizens of the country, we will overcome any difficulties and any challenges.

All the problems are temporary. But Moscow, Russia — they are eternal.

BREAKING: A Greek Air Force F-4 Phantom crashed at Tanagra Air Base during Athens Flying Week.

There is no official update yet on the crew’s condition or the cause of the crash.

For the first time in decades, NATO allies held submarine-hunting drills off Iceland without U.S. ships or aircraft, as European and Canadian forces took the lead in defending the North Atlantic.

The exercise focused on the GIUK Gap, a key route for Russian nuclear-powered submarines entering the Atlantic, amid growing concerns over Russia and the U.S. pullback from Europe.

Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić said he would resign as president and run for prime minister if his ruling party wins an early parliamentary election expected on Oct. 25.

NEW: U.S. Central Command said it struck three Iranian oil tankers after the IRGC launched ballistic missiles at two U.S. Navy warships.

CENTCOM said the American vessels avoided the attacks and no U.S. personnel were injured.

In response, U.S. forces disabled the M/T Downy and M/T Stark 1 and destroyed the M/T Kylo, also known as Noxen, after its crew abandoned ship.

Japan’s Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi:

On September 4, in the city of Khabarovsk, Russia, an unveiling ceremony was held for a bronze statue of the Victory over Japan Memorial, depicting a Soviet soldier destroying a boundary marker imprinted with the Chrysanthemum Crest.

In particular, the Chrysanthemum Crest is widely recognized as a crest symbolizing Japan, and the installation of a memorial depicting its destruction is utterly unacceptable.

This is an issue concerning the feelings of the Japanese people, and as the government, we have strongly requested the Russian side to halt the installation and remove it.

We will continue to strongly urge its removal.

Zelensky:

From now until the end of today, Saturday, as well as on Sunday and Monday, Ukraine is ready to refrain from strikes on Moscow, and we expect the Russians to refrain from strikes on Kyiv.

Two Greek pilots were killed when their F-4 Phantom crashed during the Athens Flying Week air show near Athens.

Cuba's Foreign Minister Bruno Rodríguez Parrilla:

It would in no way seem serious to claim that an island of these dimensions could constitute a threat to the principal nuclear power.

Cuba is not, and cannot be, a threat to U.S. national security or the U.S. economy. It is not an enemy, nor does it intend to be one.

This U.S. government desperately needs to try to justify the atrocious policies it applies against our people.

Cuba's Foreign Minister Bruno Rodríguez Parrilla:

With complete realism, we are preparing for the defense of our nation, as is the Cuban tradition, and we hope that it never happens.

But at the same time, we have said, and we will do so with complete firmness, that we will defend our right to self-determination at all costs.

Cuba's Foreign Minister Bruno Rodríguez Parrilla:

Cuba represents an alternative to savage capitalism.

U.S. politicians are concerned about the existence of an alternative model to the one they would like to impose on the entire planet.

The Falklands are back at the center of a geopolitical fight.

Witkoff and Kushner are on their way to the Kremlin for a meeting with Putin.

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Pakistan:

Back then, there was nothing but disappointment and frustration. Pakistan was out of control.

Today, those who spread terrorism are on the back foot.

If Pakistan does anything malicious, India’s armed forces enter their home and kill them.

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi:

India will be the manufacturing hub of the future. India will be the hub of research and innovation.

India will be an agricultural-export superpower. India will have its own space station.

One day, India will host an Olympics that will leave the world watching in amazement.
