Iran reiterates support for Palestinian terror

The death of Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi will not affect Tehran's support for Palestinian terror groups or its approach to nuclear talks with the United States, a Foreign Ministry spokesman said.

Despite Raisi's death in a helicopter crash on May 19, Tehran's support for "the oppressed people of Palestine and the resistance groups pursuing the inalienable rights of the Palestinians to liberate their land and oppose the Zionist regime" will continue as usual, Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Nasser Kanaani told reporters.

Three Israeli soldiers killed and 7 more wounded in heavy fighting in the Gaza Strip.

The fallen were named as:

🇮🇱 Staff Sergeant Ido Appel, 21

🇮🇱 Staff Sergeant Amir Galilove, 20

🇮🇱 Staff Sergeant Uri Bar Or, 21

May their memory be a blessing.

In response to the "All eyes on Rafah" campaign, Israelis wonder, where were your eyes on October 7?

The assessment of Hanegbi, that the Gaza war will last at least another 7 months, was coupled with news that the government might extend the hotel contracts for citizens evacuated from the north until June 2025.

That means they'll be displaced the entire next school year as war with Hezbollah looms.

This is disconcerting for Israelis. Not because Israel can't beat these foes, but because Israel can't sustain long wars.

The impact on the economy, on morale and on the daily flow of life in such a small country is detrimental.

Israel needs, and has always needed, to win its wars quickly with knockout punches.

Hamas-affiliated terrorists in Tulkarem (western Samaria) posted a promo video of them attacking the nearby central Israel town of Bat Hefer.

They are desperate to expand the war to central Israel.

Reports: Brazil has recalled its ambassador to Israel.

There seems to be a battle in Brazil, like in many Western nations, over Israel.

Brazil's current president hates Israel, but as we can see, many members of congress are strong supporters of the Jewish state.

Brazil also has a very strong Christian community that is always well represented at the Feast of Tabernacles and other events in Israel.

Senator Lindsey Graham was today in Israel, his fifth visit since Oct. 7.

In addressing the recent ICJ ruling, he said, “To the International Court of Justice, you're a joke. The head judge of the ICJ is a raving antisemite."

The IDF has taken full control of the Philadelphia Corridor, the road that runs along the border between Gaza and Egypt.

So far, the IDF has found 20 Hamas tunnels and 82 tunnel shafts there.

REPORT: 2 wounded in terrorist car ramming attack in Samaria, near the Jewish community of Itamar.

Wounded from the Samaria car ramming attack are reportedly in critical condition.

The two Israelis wounded in this evening’s terrorist car ramming attack have died of their injuries.

The terrorist surrendered himself to Palestinian Authority police.

Blinken admits Palestinians can't be trusted?

US Secretary of State Antony Blinken continues to complain about what he calls Israel's lack of a "day after" plan for Gaza.

In truth, he means a plan that meets his expectations. Israel has a plan, Blinken just doesn't like it.

Blinken goes on to warn that without such a plan, Israel will "face jihadis worse than Hamas."

But what does that say about the Palestinians?

Blinken is effectively acknowledging that left to their own devices, the Palestinians will turn to terrorism, or be quickly subjected to the rule of ISIS-like terrorists.

And he still thinks it's a good idea to give them an independent state?
