The IAEA confirms that the Arak Heavy Water Reactor facility near Khondab, Iran was destroyed in an Israeli airstrike.

The facility was a key component of Iran's efforts to produce weapons-grade plutonium.

Sirens again in southern Israel a short time ago.

Spain's shameless prime minister claims Israel is preventing Christians from celebrating Palm Sunday and Easter for no good reason.

The easily-verifiable truth, which Pedro Sánchez seems to care nothing for, is that Israel closed all holy sites belong to all religions due to the threat of Iranian missile attacks.

As Israeli President Isaac Herzog stated, this has been done for the safety of Jews, Christians, and Muslims.

Is Lebanon a sovereign nation?

Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar says Lebanon has been exposed as a “virtual state” both for its failure to disarm an illegal militia (Hezbollah) and its inability to expel a hostile foreign ambassador.

Last week, Lebanon expelled the Iranian ambassador and ordered him to leave by yesterday. He’s still in Beirut, defiantly remaining in place, and Lebanon seems impotent to do anything about it.

Israel will allow the Latin Patriarch of Jerusalem to hold services at the Church of the Holy Sepulchre.

This was decided against safety guidelines amid ongoing Iranian missile attacks, and only because the patriarch ran to the media and caused an international diplomatic incident by falsely accusing Israel of discrimination.

Iranian and Hezbollah missile fire at northern Israel a short time ago. One projectile reportedly landed near Haifa's oil refinery.

CORRECTION: Latin Patriarch Pierbattista Pizzaballa did not accuse Israel of discrimination after police forbid him from holding services at the Church of the Holy Sepulchre. Pizzaballa said he understood the restrictions, but felt it was excessive to deny entry to a small delegation to hold a brief service.

Others, including Catholic officials and mainstream media, took that and ran with the false narrative of Israel persecuting Christians.

Sergeant Liran Ben Zion fell in battle in southern Lebanon.

May his memory be a blessing.

Sirens now in southern Israel.

The Latin Patriarch of Jerusalem released a statement that an agreement has been reached with the Israel Police to allow limited access to the Church of the Holy Sepulchre for church officials during the Easter holiday.

Police officials said Jewish worshippers will not be allowed to visit the Western Wall during the upcoming Passover holiday.

Between everyday routine and frequent trips to the bomb shelter to avoid being hit by Iranian missiles, the reality Israelis are living can seem surreal.

And yet, life goes on in a way that might seem absurd to people living in other countries.

At the same time, many in Europe and elsewhere have been grappling lately with developing systems to deal with life under missile threat.

Israel lives that reality, and so has developed a dense protection system consisting of multiple layers of interceptors, multiple levels of national alert, and mandatory home bomb shelters.

The result is that despite thousands of missile attacks on the Jewish state, casualties have been relatively low, and people feel relatively safe in going about their daily business between the sirens.

Over the past 24 hours, the IDF struck 170 targets belonging to the Iranian terrorist regime using approximately 400 munitions.

As part of the wave of strikes, the IDF continued to deepen the damage to the regime’s weapons production industry.

Among the sites targeted:

🔹️ A central site used to produce key components for a variety of weapons in Iran

🔹️ Sites used for the production of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) engines

🔹️ An industrial complex where components for weapons were developed and a research and development site

In parallel, in western Iran, the IDF struck several key headquarters of armed forces subordinate to the Iranian terrorist regime, including the main Basij compound in the city of Dehgolan and a police station of the Internal Security Forces in the city of Sanandaj.

Sirens in central Israel.

Israel's Knesset votes for the death penalty

Despite massive concerns from security officials and sharp criticism from Europe, the Knesset this evening passed the law promoted by National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir’s party by a large margin.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who was wary of the motion, ended up voting in favor, while opposition leader Yair Lapid warned: "This is a gift to Hamas."

Ben-Gvir, meanwhile, celebrated the decision with champagne and spoke of "historic justice.”

The most important details at a glance:

🔹️ The Knesset approved the law with 62 votes in favor to 48 opposed (with one abstention).

🔹️ The law is seen as a prestige project for Ben-Gvir and his faction Otzma Yehudit (Jewish Power).

🔹️ Ben-Gvir underlined the victory demonstratively with sparkling wine in the plenary hall.

🔹️ MK Limor Son Har-Melech, who announced the result, recited the Jewish blessing Shehecheyanu, a prayer of thanks for reaching this special moment.

Donald Trump reminds everyone that already in 1987 he was advocating tough action against Iran, including taking over some of its oil installations.

Is Trump sharing this old interview clip a prelude to US ground forces occupying Kharg Island or another Iranian oil facility?
