What a Tzadik!!! This is Rabbi Naftali Cohen who is an expert Mohel for brit mila (Jewish circumcision) who flew to perform a circumcision in the besieged Odessa for an 8-day-old baby after dozens of other mohels refused to embark on the long and dangerous journey. The flight was funded by Ichud Hatzala (the Rescue Union).

He was detained for many hours by the Ukrainian Border Police at the border but in moments ago he was released and on his way now to perform this great mitzvah in the community of Rabbi Shlomo Bekshet where the last Jews in the city of Odessa remain.

Kol HaKavod & Mazal Tov to the family & the new member of the Jewish tribe!!

Since the war in Ukraine started I was trying hard to track down an old Jewish Ukrainian friend, who stayed in Israel for a bit, to find out if his family in the Ukraine are doing ok and I finally got hold of him and found out that he is in the Ukraine right now. His company transferred him back to the Ukraine some time ago and has not left even after the war started. This is what he had to say.

I admire his courage and determination to want to protect his birth country, I personally would never risk my life for another country other than Israel but I can understand why some will.

Either way I am praying for his, his wife and their family's safety!

This is the Temple Mount, the supposed 3rd most holiest place for Muslims (the only Holy place for Jews) yet see how they treat their "holy place" as a playground. This would never ever be allowed to take place in Mecca at the Kaaba, so is this really a holy place for them or just a place of politics? (rhetorical question)

I certainly know it is not a holy place for them, many in the world have no clue. Time to use common sense!

Baruch Dayan HaEmet

IDF combat solider Reuven Magen, who saw 5 of his friends killed in front of him during Operation Tzuk Eitan in Gaza 2014 when he was only 19 years old, was buried today at age 27 after a long struggle with PTSD.

His unit was about to enter Gaza but were hit by heavy shelling which killed his 5 friends and injured him in the leg. He was recognised by the Ministry of Defence as a soldier injured with PTSD but suffered serious nightmares till the day he died. I guess the pain was too hard for him. He died in his home.

Thank you for your service and may your memory be a blessing and may your family heal.

Welcome to 2 Holocaust survivors named Zoya and Michael Trachtenberg who arrived from Ukraine to Israel.

Zoya said: "We are refugees for the 3rd time in our lives. Our only son, who died of cancer, is buried in Zhitomir. We did not have time to say our goodbyes at his grave and I do not know if I can get to his grave again."

Michael, who is a well-known doctor in the local Jewish community, said: "I was not able to save my son from cancer. When we got to Zhitomir I thought it would be our last stop but now, at 88 and 86 we have become refugees again."

I am sorry to hear of your troubles but I am very happy you are back home in Israel.

A beautiful moment last week when this little kid ran to the open field during his father's IDF Beret ceremony. This is the ceremony where soldiers receive their berets after a grueling Masa Kumta (beret march). His father who was standing there ran to fetch him.

The IDF's elite special forces unit known as Sayeret Matkal is considered to be one of the best special operations units in the world. They are one of Israel's most secretive units and almost all of their operations are highly classified and not revealed to anyone without the highest security clearance within Israelโ€™s entire security establishment.

An insightful opinion by Rabbi Yoseph Ben Porat on "Why the Muslims want the Temple Mount".

Ever since Jerusalem was ruined, many nations have fought for it and today the Muslims claim ownership of the Temple Mount.

Do the Arabs have a connection and a belonging to the Holy Temple? Why doesn't the Temple Mount nor Jerusalem appear in the Quran?

Enjoy this deep lecture about one of the most charged and controversial topics in the world.
