The Supreme Planning Council of the Israeli Defense Ministry’s Civil Administration is set to advance plans for hundreds of new homes in the Jewish community of Eli in the Binyamin region of Samaria.

The proposal includes 763 housing units, which would roughly triple the size of the community.

The Israel Defense Forces on Sunday moved to bar Palestinian laborers from entering Jewish communities in Judea and Samaria until further notice.

Palestinians will still be permitted to work in industrial zones, while construction sites may also be exempted at the request of individual communities.

The military order followed a series of Palestinian terrorist attacks against Jewish civilians in the region.

Israeli Ambassador Danny Danon called out UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres for failing to visit the Jewish state even once since the Oct. 7, 2023 terrorist invasion.

“Since Oct. 7, he has not set foot in Israel,” noted Danon, despite the fact that Guterres “continues to travel around the world, with his next stop being Syria.”

“We want to kill the Jews and die as martyrs!”

This is what children in the Gaza Strip are taught to aspire to.

Israeli security forces arrested seven Palestinians from Judea on suspicion of involvement in a violent incident in which a Jewish civilian was assaulted with a club.

According to police, the incident occurred overnight on Saturday at Moreno Farm, near the Gush Etzion city of Beitar Illit. The suspects were said to have entered private property, leading to a confrontation between Arabs and Jews.

Police said one of the Israelis sustained light injuries when he was struck with a club during the altercation.

Israel’s government on Sunday voted to extend an order allowing the call-up of military reservists.

The decision extends Israel Defense Forces reserve mobilization through Sept. 30.

Under the new order, the maximum number of reservists who may be called up will be reduced from 280,000 to 240,000, reflecting what the government described as the IDF’s updated operational needs.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the International Criminal Court’s decision to remove Karim Khan as chief prosecutor had exposed the dubious nature of the case against Israel.

“This decision exposes the truth. Karim Khan was accused of sexually harassing women who worked under him.

“It was precisely as these allegations emerged that he canceled his planned visit to Israel, abandoned his previous commitment to thoroughly examine Israel’s independent judicial system, and suddenly moved to pursue arrest warrants against me and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant.

“He did so to divert attention from the allegations against him and to rally Israel’s enemies around him as a political shield. That shield has now been torn away.”
