📯 What does the sound of the shofar have to do with Israel today?
Since biblical times, the shofar has called people to reflection, repentance, and responsibility before God. Especially in these turbulent times, we need voices that not only explain Israel, but also put current events into context from an Israeli and biblical perspective.
That is exactly what Israel Today stands for – directly from Jerusalem.
But our work is becoming increasingly expensive. To finance it through subscriptions alone, an annual subscription would now have to cost around €130. We want to avoid that, so that Israel Today remains affordable for as many people as possible.
That is why we need your support. Those who are able to give a little more help ensure that others can continue to receive independent information and biblical perspective directly from Israel.
Together, we can make sure that the voice of Jerusalem continues to be heard throughout the German-speaking world tomorrow.

Israel is tiny. Why does it shake the whole world?
From the Gaza Strip to the Strait of Hormuz: Why Israel, despite its small size, is increasingly at the center of global crises and their consequences.
Israel is a tiny country. On a world map, you almost have to search for it. Around ten million people live on a narrow strip of land between the Mediterranean Sea and the Jordan River. And yet in 2026, one sometimes gets the impression that a remarkably large portion of global politics revolves around precisely this patch of biblical earth.
Gaza, Lebanon, Iran, Yemen, the Red Sea, the Strait of Hormuz and Bab al-Mandab — Israel appears directly or indirectly everywhere. The United States is being drawn in, Europe is taking positions, Arab states must realign their alliances, trade routes are coming under pressure, and energy prices are responding to military developments in the Middle East. On one hand, Israel is too small to dominate the world and yet suddenly large enough to shake it. Here we are...

Following the decision by the U.S. State Department ☝️ not to allow Abu Mazen, Chairman of the Palestinian Authority, to enter the United States for the UN General Assembly, the UN has authorized Abu Mazen to address the assembly by video … just as he did last year.
In November, he will turn 91. Perhaps it would be better for him to rest at home …

Maher Rayan, a Palestinian from Hebron, pollutes the Hebron Stream and explains: “These are the deeds we are proud of.”
Palestinians regularly destroy the environment and then claim ownership of Judea and Samaria. They sow destruction and devastation—and are even proud of their actions.
An excellent video for public diplomacy in Europe, especially among the “climate advocates.”

The Silence of the Allies and Israel’s New Role.
The attack on the Saudi East-West Pipeline is far more than just another strike against the kingdom’s energy infrastructure. What was hit was precisely that strategic lifeline that Saudi Arabia created to be able to bypass the Strait of Hormuz in an emergency.
The approximately 1,200-kilometer pipeline connects the major oil fields in the east of the country with the port of Yanbu on the Red Sea, enabling exports independent of the Persian Gulf. Since the war with Iran has massively disrupted shipping through Hormuz, this alternative route has become all the more important. Most recently, approximately four to five million barrels of oil per day are said to have flowed through the pipeline.
Now it too has been struck by a drone attack launched from Iraqi territory and temporarily shut down. A dangerous strategy is thus taking shape: Iran and its militias, the Houthis, are simultaneously applying pressure on Saudi Arabia at multiple geographic vulnerabilities. To the east lies the Strait of Hormuz, to the south the Houthis threaten Bab al-Mandab, and in between, the most important land connection to the Red Sea has now also become vulnerable. Here.

Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu blessed Israel’s soldiers last night:
“May He who protected our forefathers Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob bless the soldiers of the Israel Defense Forces and the security forces who stand guard over our people in the Land of our God—from Lebanon to the Egyptian desert, and from the Great Sea to where the sun sets, on land, in the air, and at sea.
May the Lord cause the enemies who rise up against us to be struck down before them. The Holy One, blessed be He…”

The U.S. State Department issued a new security alert overnight for American citizens in the Middle East. Due to ongoing tensions, the security environment remains “complex” and could escalate unexpectedly.
U.S. citizens in the region are urged to remain vigilant and prepare for possible flight cancellations, airspace closures, and travel disruptions. No recommendation has been issued to leave the region. Travelers are advised to check the status of their flights directly with airlines and airports, as schedules may change at short notice.
