The Biden administration asked Israel to approve US military aid to the Palestinian Authority for a wide-ranging operation by its security forces the Judea and Samaria, Axios reported citing PA, US, and Israeli officials.
According to the report, the ongoing operation is aimed at a local armed group in Jenin that includes terrorists affiliated with both Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) and Hamas. It was launched due to a fear that the terrorists may attempt to overthrow the PA inspired by the toppling of the Assad regime in Syria.
A PA official stated that US security coordinator Gen. Mike Fenzel met with PA security chiefs ahead of the operation to review the plan. Fenzel was given a list of equipment and ammunition PA security forces urgently need.
The requested equipment inc...

“Help my daughter live”
I am Esti, Lali’s mother.
Our Lali is a child we longed for and waited for five years. She is all the light and joy of our home, and all I want is for her to stay here with us.
Not long ago, she started feeling unwell. We took her to doctors, and what they discovered simply broke our hearts—she has cancer. Since then, nothing has been the same. We are trying to stay strong for her, but inside, we are falling apart.
Her treatments cost a lot, far beyond what we can manage alone. I am asking you, anyone who can contribute, to help us save Lali. Every donation, every bit of support—it’s for her and for us.
Please daven for Leah bas Esther for a full recovery.
May you never know such pain,
Esti

A hostage deal with Hamas will likely be completed by Hanukkah, an Israeli official tells Israel Hayom.
Hanukkah starts on the evening of December 25.
For now, however, talks are hung up over the number of hostages to be released in a partial deal, according to Channel 13. Hamas insists on releasing far fewer than Israel demands, and Israel is not willing to budge, says the report.
According to Channel 12, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told US President-elect Donald Trump last night that the US must pressure Egypt and Qatar to in turn push Hamas to release more hostages.

Our last piece described Hashem’s role as creator of the world and director of its events and how He displayed this directorship through the miracles of Yetziat Mitzrayim.
“Your G-d” — Special Relationship
In addition to proving Hashem’s involvement in the world, Yetziat Mitzrayim also demonstrated and initiated His unique relationship with us.
The fourth of the “languages of redemption” emphasized this point. After Hashem mentioned the first three phrases briefly in one pasuk, He devoted an additional full pasuk to the fourth: “And I will take you to Me as My people, and I will be your God, and you will know that I am Hashem, your God, who removes you from under the suffering in Egypt.”[1] Hashem used the redemption from M...
Washington, D.C. - Dec. 15, 2024 - For the first time in history, two prominent Hasidic leaders have been invited to the White House as personal guests of President-elect Donald Trump.
The Gerrer Rosh Yeshiva, Rabbi Shaul Alter, and the Satmar Rebbe, Rabbi Aharon Teitelbaum, both received an official invitation to visit the White House after the inauguration of Trump.
The planned visit is intended to express gratitude for the Hasidic leaders’ support for the president-elect, which led to a significant rise in the number of votes he received from the haredi public in the United States.
The relationship between the Gerrer Rosh Yeshiva and President Trump began even before the elections, when the President sent a special letter of condolence to Rabbi Alter following the death of his ...

Syrian rebel leader Abu Mohammad al-Julani on Saturday spoke about Israel for the first time since the fall of the Assad regime on Sunday.
"We are not entering into conflict with Israel," he said. "Israel is using the Iranian presence as an excuse to invade Syria. After the Iranians leave, there are no reasons for foreign interference in Syria."
Last week, al-Julani told CNN, "The seeds of the regime’s defeat have always been within it… the Iranians attempted to revive the regime, buying it time, and later the Russians also tried to prop it up. But the truth remains: this regime is dead."
"I think that once this regime falls, the issue will be resolved, and there will no longer be a need for any foreign forces to remain in Syria," he added. "Syria deserves a ...
The StopAntisemitism Movement today (Sunday) named right-wing pundit Candace Owens as its Antisemite of the Year for 2024.
"Disgraced political pundit Candace Owens has been crowned 2024’s Antisemite of the Year after a poll with over 30,000 votes!" the organization wrote on X.
"Owens edged out Hamas apologist Greta Thunberg and terror-supporting Twitch streamer Hasan Piker for the title, inheriting the dishonor from 2022 winner, Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib," StopAntisemitism wrote.
It continued, "Once celebrated for her unapologetic takes that catapulted her into the conservative spotlight, Owens was given platforms by prominent Jewish conservatives like Dennis Prager and Ben Shapiro. But after Hamas’ October 7th massacre, she revealed her shocking antisemitism, leading to ...
Ten weeks into the invasion of Lebanon and about three weeks into the ceasefire, the IDF said on Sunday that it has confiscated over 10,000 Hezbollah weapons in a large number of different districts of southern Lebanon.
More specifically, IDF Division 91 has operated in more than 10 different districts, while Division 98 has operated in at least six – though there probably was also some overlap between the two divisions.
Division 91 reached all the way to the Litani River and the Saluki parts of southern Lebanon which are deeper into the country.
Some of the areas Division 98 operated in which were Khiam, Al-Adaysseh, Rab Al-Tlatin, Marjayoun, Al-Taybeh, and Al-Khiam.
In addition, Division 91 said it had destroyed 1,000 Hezbollah sites, while Division 98 said it ha...
Hezbollah head Naim Qassem acknowledged Saturday that the Lebanese terror group had lost its arms supply route through Syria following the toppling of Bashar al-Assad’s regime nearly a week ago by a sweeping rebel offensive.
Qassem didn’t mention Assad by name in his televised address, and said the group “cannot judge these new forces until they stabilize” and “take clear positions,” but said he hoped that the Lebanese and Syrian people and governments could continue to cooperate.
“Yes, Hezbollah has lost the military supply route through Syria at this stage, but this loss is a detail in the resistance’s work,” Qassem said.
“A new regime could come and this route could return to normal, and we could look for other ways,” ...
Irish Prime Minister Simon Harris says that the decision by Israel to close its Dublin embassy is “deeply regrettable.”
“I utterly reject the assertion that Ireland is anti-Israel,” Harris writes on X. “Ireland is pro-peace, pro-human rights and pro-international law.”
“Ireland wants a two state solution and for Israel and Palestine to live in peace and security. Ireland will always speak up for human rights and international law,” he adds.
Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar announced that he would be closing the embassy earlier today, citing the “extreme anti-Israel policy of the Irish government” as his reason for doing so.
Israel recalled its ambassador in May after Ireland became one of three EU countries that said they w...
