WHEN ARE THE 500 MILLION MIGRATING BIRDS IN ISRAEL IN THE SPRING TIME.(GET READY ISLAM TO BE BIRD SEED FOR THESE BIRDS)
https://www.youtube.com/shorts/m0bXU5Xqc5M
The 500 million migratory birds in Israel during the spring arrive from Africa and head toward Europe and Asia, with the peak migration occurring in March and April. While migration starts in late February, the most intense movements, particularly of birds of prey, storks, and pelicans, occur during the third week of March and continue into April.
Key Details on the Spring Migration
Peak Period: Mid-March through April.
Main Migration Route: The birds use the Great Rift Valley, which includes the Hula Valley and Eilat, acting as a "bottleneck" where millions of birds fly through the narrow land bridge.
Best Spots: The Hula Lake Park (Northern Israel) and the Eilat Birding Center (Southern Israel) are primary locations for observing the migration.
Key Species: Hundreds of thousands of white storks, along with black kites, raptors, and pelicans, pass through over these months.
uration: The spring migration runs from late February and continues into June, though the heaviest traffic is in March/April.
The 500 million migratory birds fly over Israel in the fall between late August and mid-December. The peak migration period for the autumn, when the highest volume of bird traffic occurs, is typically October and November.
Key Fall Migration Details
Location: The Hula Valley (Agamon Hula Park) in northern Israel is the premier spot to witness this phenomenon.
Timing: Migration starts as early as late June with some waders, but intensifies from mid-August through November.
Peak Festival: The "Annual Hula Valley Bird Festival" is usually held in November to align with the peak migration traffic.
Key Species: Many birds of prey (raptors), including honey buzzards and steppe eagles, cross during this time, along with massive flocks of storks and cranes.
While roughly 500 million birds pass through in the autumn on their way to Africa, the same number crosses again in the spring (mid-February to May) on their way back to Europe and Asia.
JEREMEIAH 49:23-27
23 Concerning Damascus.(SYRIA) Hamath is confounded, and Arpad: for they have heard evil tidings: they are fainthearted; there is sorrow on the sea;(WAR SHIPS WITH NUKES COMING ON SYRIA) it cannot be quiet.
24 Damascus is waxed feeble, and turneth herself to flee, and fear hath seized on her: anguish and sorrows have taken her, as a woman in travail.
25 How is the city of praise not left, the city of my joy!
26 Therefore her young men shall fall in her streets, and all the men of war shall be cut off in that day, saith the LORD of hosts.
27 And I will kindle a fire (NUKES OR BOMBS) in the wall of Damascus, and it shall consume the palaces of Benhadad.(ASSADS PALACES POSSIBLY IN DAMASCUS)
IDF chief met army heads of Qatar, Saudi Arabia, other Arab states to discuss Iran – report-Meeting said to take place last week at German ski resort, also included CENTCOM head and military chiefs from UAE, Jordan, Egypt, Bahrain and Kuwait By Nava Freiberg and ToI Staff 15 September 2026, 11:49 pm
The military chiefs of Israel, the US, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Kuwait, Qatar, Jordan and Egypt held a meeting in Germany last week about the war with Iran and regional tensions, two Israeli officials told the Axios news site in a Tuesday report.The private meeting at a secluded ski resort, organized by US CENTCOM commander Brad Cooper and confirmed by CENTCOM to Axios, was the first such gathering since the US and Israel launched their joint campaign against Iran in February, according to the report.The officials have previously held similar meetings, the report said, despite Israel not having diplomatic relations with several of the involved Arab states, notably Saudi Arabia and Qatar, the latter of which has been called an “enemy state” by several prominent Israeli politicians.During the meeting, IDF Chief of Staff Eyal Zamir briefed his counterparts on “IDF operations on various fronts,” the report said.At the sit-down, Cooper told his counterparts that the US military would not withdraw its forces from the region despite Iranian attacks on American bases, the sources told Axios.Cooper also briefed them on US plans for expanding maritime traffic in the Strait of Hormuz, the key shipping lane that carried one-fifth of the world’s energy supply before Iran began blockading the waterway and attacking ships trying to transit it.In a statement to Axios confirming the meeting, CENTCOM said it “hosted senior military leaders from eight nations during a scheduled conference in Germany.”The statement added that the leaders “discussed opportunities for enhancing security cooperation in the Middle East.”A source familiar with the matter also told Axios that Israel and Saudi Arabia, with CENTCOM assistance, are discussing ways Jerusalem could assist Riyadh in confronting Houthi advances toward the Bab el-Mandeb Strait amid renewed conflict between the two, and attacks by the Iran-backed group on the kingdom, adding it is unlikely Israel will take any offensive actions.Earlier Tuesday, the Israel Hayom daily newspaper reported that CENTCOM had been overseeing contacts between the two countries over the Houthi attacks.The IDF declined a request for comment on the Germany meeting from The Times of Israel.
2026 crackdown described as 'unprecedented massacres'Amnesty says Iran committed ‘crimes against humanity’ in crackdown on 2022 protests
Rights group says Tehran’s suppression of this year’s demonstrations had ‘same hallmarks’ but was more severe, points finger at 87 officials, six of whom were killed in war By AFP Today, 12:31 am-SEP 17,26
Iranian authorities committed crimes against humanity in the crackdown on 2022 protests that left hundreds dead, Amnesty International said Wednesday, adding that Tehran’s suppression of new mass demonstrations earlier this year bore the “same hallmarks” but on an even wider scale.Several months of protests against the Islamic Republic’s theocratic authorities, known as the “Woman. Life. Freedom” movement, erupted in September 2022 following the death in custody of Iranian Kurdish woman Mahsa Amini, who had been arrested for allegedly violating the country’s strict dress rules for women.The crackdown in 2022 amounted to “crimes against humanity” including murder, torture, rape and enforced disappearance, Amnesty said in a report marking four years since those protests, warning that the authorities’ actions earlier this year were “on an even deadlier and more staggering scale.”The London-based rights group named 87 national and regional officials, six of whom were subsequently killed in US-Israeli air strikes during the current war, who it believed were responsible in the chain of command and should face international justice.The 2022 demonstrations were the biggest protests in Iran in recent years until demonstrations earlier this year, which were sparked by anger over the cost of living. They peaked on the nights of January 8 and 9.On both occasions, authorities responded with a deadly crackdown that caused international outrage. Amnesty’s 1,000-page report focused on the 2022 protests while making clear that the crackdown in 2026 followed the same pattern while being even more severe.“The extensive evidence gathered and analyzed in our report leaves no doubt: Iranian authorities committed crimes against humanity to crush the 2022 Woman Life Freedom uprising,” said Agnes Callamard, Amnesty International’s Secretary General.Amnesty urged the UN General Assembly to “create an international criminal justice mechanism aimed at prosecuting those most implicated.”‘Unlawfully killed’The 87 officials it named included former Iranian supreme leader Ali Khamenei and top figures in the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps who were killed in the US-Israeli war this year.But some others, including Ahmad Vahidi, who was then the interior minister and is now chief of the IRGC, are still alive.“The security forces deployed by the authorities unlawfully killed hundreds of protesters and bystanders, including dozens of children” in the crackdown from September to December 2022, Amnesty said.“They subjected thousands more to arbitrary arrests, incommunicado detention, enforced disappearance and torture or other ill-treatment. They raped and committed other sexual violence against some of those arrested in connection with the protests,” it added.Amnesty said it had identified 377 protesters and bystanders, including 56 children, who lost their lives during the 2022 protests, of whom at least 326 were killed by security forces, including with metal pellets fired at close range.‘Unprecedented massacres’One of those killed identified by Amnesty in the report was 62-year-old Minoo Majidi, who was hit by metal pellets while protesting in the western city of Kermanshah in September 2022.“She was killed on the street. She had gone to the street for change, to shout ‘freedom,'” her daughter Mahsa Piraei, who lives outside Iran, told AFP.“The world thinks the protests were about freedom for women. They were, but they were also about freedom for people and the right to life,” she added.Amnesty described the crackdown this year as the “unprecedented massacres of thousands of protesters and bystanders” which “bear the same hallmarks as the crimes against humanity documented in this report, yet on an even deadlier and more staggering scale.”“Seeking justice is partly for my mum but to help the still many lives who are in danger,” Piraei added, referring to the dozens of people arrested during the January protests who rights groups say are at risk of execution.They include Ali Zarei, who was blinded in one eye during 2022 protests and then took refuge in Germany, but returned to Iran this year and was arrested and sentenced to death.“We need to shout out their names,” Piraei added.
CENTCOM reports broad damage to US facilities, equipment-New images appear to show heavy damage from Iranian strikes on US bases in Middle East By AFP and ToI Staff 16 September 2026, 11:55 pm
A destroyed aircraft, shredded tents, trailers that have been ripped apart: images taken by US troops show significant damage from Iranian strikes targeting American military assets in the Middle East, CBS News reported.The undated images — taken at a base in Saudi Arabia and two facilities in Kuwait — were provided to CBS by American personnel on condition of anonymity due to US military restrictions, the outlet said late Tuesday.“This is major damage to our bases that hasn’t been communicated to the American public,” CBS quoted one US service member as saying.“We’re standing there with our eyes closed getting punched in the face,” the service member added.One of the photos — taken at Saudi Arabia’s Prince Sultan Air Force Base — showed a US Air Force plane that was heavily damaged in a March 27 attack.The attack, involving at least one missile and several drones, wounded 12 US service members and damaged or destroyed key US military equipment, including a Boeing E-3 Sentry, an Airborne Warning and Control System (AWACS) plane that can track aircraft and missiles from hundreds of kilometers away.CNN reported on Wednesday that shortly before the March 27 strike, 14 Russian spy satellites flew above the US military base.The report cited unnamed US sources who said information from Russian satellites played an integral role in helping the Iranians carry out the high-precision strike.Another photo published by CBS, taken at Kuwait’s Camp Buehring, shows a bombed-out and burned vehicle. Buildings at another army base in Kuwait, Camp Arifjan, were charred and missing exterior walls.The Pentagon’s inspector general released a report earlier this week that said the military’s Central Command (CENTCOM) — which is responsible for US forces in the Middle East — had reported widespread damage to American facilities and equipment.CENTCOM said Iranian strikes “damaged and destroyed hundreds of buildings and structures at US bases in Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, UAE, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Oman, and Jordan,” the report said.Exclusive photos obtained by CBS News show extensive damage at multiple U.S. military positions in the Middle East following Iranian missile and drone attacks.

Conflict between Iran and the US has continued.
Sweden expels Iranian embassy employee for threats to Jewish, Israeli sites-Stockholm summons Iranian ambassador over accusation Tehran conducting activities against opposition figures and Israeli and Jewish interests, including by working with criminals-By AFP 16 September 2026, 9:44 pm
STOCKHOLM, Sweden — Sweden said Wednesday it had expelled an Iranian embassy employee and summoned the country’s ambassador, accusing Tehran of making threats against Jewish and Israeli interests in Sweden.“We know that Iran, over a long period of time, has conducted activities that threaten security in and against Sweden, targeting both individuals who oppose the Iranian regime and various Jewish and Israeli interests in our country,” Sweden’s Justice Minister Gunnar Strommer said in a statement to AFP.“This has, among other things, been done by making use of criminal networks.”The Iranian embassy did not immediately respond to AFP’s request for a comment.The Swedish Security Service (Sapo) has previously accused Iran of recruiting criminal gang members to commit “acts of violence” against Israeli and other interests in Sweden — a claim Iran has denied.“When it comes to what has prompted the government’s announcement today, I am not in a position to go into any details, as it concerns our intelligence work,” Sapo spokesman Jonathan Svensson told AFP.“We can confirm that Iran continues to engage in activities that pose security threats in and against Sweden. This includes, among other things, attempts to use proxies, such as criminal networks, to carry out attacks or acts of violence,” he said.There have been several incidents targeting Israeli interests in Sweden in recent years.In June 2024, two insulated flasks packed with plastic explosives were found outside the offices of Israeli defense firm Elbit Systems, known for its unmanned aerial systems, in the city of Gothenburg.In October of the same year, a 13-year-old boy opened fire on the entrance to an office of Elbit Systems.Four teenagers were sentenced to prison terms in April 2025 for recruiting the boy to carry out the shooting.In May of the same year, gunshots were fired outside the Israeli embassy, which prompted Sweden to boost security around Israeli interests and Jewish community institutions.Swedish Foreign Minister Maria Malmer Stenergard said Wednesday the embassy employee was asked to leave over “activities that are not compatible with the Vienna Convention on diplomatic relations.She did not provide details of the activities, but said the decision had been taken “to protect our citizens and other Swedish interests.”Sweden has seen a sharp rise in antisemitic incidents since the October 7, 2023, Hamas-led onslaught.Anti-Israel sentiments were prominent when the Scandinavian country hosted the Eurovision song competition in 2024, as protesters demonstrated against Israeli contestant Eden Golan, who was booed during her performances.Iran has previously been accused of being behind antisemitic attacks in other countries in Europe and elsewhere.Times of Israel staff contributed to this report.
13 municipalities to bar use of live chickens in pre-Yom Kippur ‘kapparot’ ritual, NGO says-Tel Mond, Yeruham, Mevaseret Zion, Yavne join cities including Tel Aviv, Beersheba in prohibiting ceremony where birds are swung around practitioners’ heads to remove sins By Zev Stub Follow
16 September 2026, 6:49 pm
Thirteen Israeli municipalities have said they will not allow the use of live chickens in the traditional kapparot ritual on Yom Kippur eve, after an animal rights group called on municipal leaders to restrict the practice.According to Let the Animals Live, those prohibiting the practice include some of Israel’s largest cities, such as Tel Aviv-Jaffa, Rishon Lezion, Petah Tikva, Beersheba and Ashkelon.New additions this year are the towns of Tel Mond, Yeruham, Mevaseret Zion and Yavne. They join the large cities, along with Kiryat Bialik, Kfar Saba, Ra’anana and Ramle.The ritual involves reciting a brief prayer while swinging a live chicken above one’s head three times in the belief that this transfers one’s sins to the chicken ahead of Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement, which is the holiest day on the Jewish calendar. The chicken is then slaughtered and given to the poor.Those who prefer not to use a live chicken have long swung money above their heads, and then donated it to charity, an alternative many, including Let the Animals Live, see as more humane and hygienic.The Environmental Protection Ministry has also made similar requests in the past.Conducting the kapparot service in public in Israel requires receiving a permit from the local veterinary department, whether or not slaughter takes place on site. Local authorities have the right to prohibit the use of live chickens for the ritual, Let the Animals Live says.“Yom Kippur embodies introspection, compassion and mercy,” said Yael Arkin, the organization’s CEO. “There is no justification for marking it through a practice involving fear and severe suffering to animals.”On Tuesday, the state-operated Chief Rabbinate said in a statement that Sephardic Chief Rabbi David Yosef and his Ashkenazi counterpart, Chief Rabbi Kalman Ber, had determined that the appropriate sum to be donated to charity for Kapparot, per person, is NIS 30 ($9.90).

US senators call for release of more information on Trump’s Saudi nuclear proposal-Lawmakers tell administration to publish full text of deal, including classified ‘side letters’ with Riyadh, in missive that doesn’t mention Israel normalization as a condition of pact-By Patricia Zengerle Today, 4:22 am-SEP 17,26
WASHINGTON (Reuters) — Democratic and Republican US senators asked President Donald Trump’s administration on Wednesday to declassify and release all information about a proposed agreement with Saudi Arabia on civil nuclear energy, including two classified “side letters” reached with Riyadh.In a letter to Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Secretary of Energy Christopher Wright, which was seen by Reuters, the senators noted that the government has reached dozens of these so-called 123 nuclear agreements with other countries without withholding such information.“Access to the full text is required for the Senate and the public to have a clear understanding of the commitments being made on the nation’s behalf and those being made by Saudi Arabia to the United States,” the letter said.The State and Energy departments did not immediately respond to requests for comment.The letter was led by Democrats Jeff Merkley of Oregon and Ed Markey of Massachusetts and signed by 13 other Democratic senators, one independent who caucuses with Democrats, and two Republicans, Rand Paul of Kentucky and John Kennedy of Louisiana.Trump sent the proposed agreement with Saudi Arabia to Congress in August, opening a 90-day window for lawmakers’ review and giving them an opportunity to try to pass a resolution of disapproval.Lawmakers have since been pushing for the declassification of the side letters, which were reached alongside the proposed deal,and also the release of related documents.The nuclear agreement has also raised questions about whether Saudi Arabia would get the deal without normalizing relations with Israel. Trump has said it will only go into effect if Riyadh does so, but congressional aides have said there is nothing in the pact addressing that issue.The letter sent Wednesday did not mention the Israel issue.The 30-year nuclear deal calls for the construction of AP1000 reactors, a project worth tens of billions of dollars that would benefit Westinghouse, jointly owned by Canada-based Cameco and Brookfield Asset Management.Some Democratic lawmakers and nonproliferation advocates have criticized the nuclear pact for not barring Saudi Arabia from enriching uranium or reprocessing nuclear waste, two potential pathways for making a nuclear weapon. The United Arab Emirates agreed to such measures, known as the gold standard, in its 2009 civil nuclear deal with Washington.The Trump administration says the deal has nonproliferation measures required by law.
Gaza terrorists heard joking during Oct. 7 attack in newly released intercepted calls-US federal prosecutors file phone transcripts in case against alleged terrorist, in which attackers are heard laughing about the onslaught and the expected destruction in Gaza-By Luke Tress 16 September 2026, 1:26 am
Gaza terrorists joked about the October 2023 invasion of Israel as the attack was taking place, according to contemporaneous phone calls released in a US federal investigation on Tuesday that gave an inside view of terrorists’ immediate reaction to the Hamas attack and their preparations to join the invasion.The call logs were released in the case against Mahmoud Amin Ya’qub al-Muhtadi, who allegedly assembled a team of armed terrorists and crossed into Israel to join the attack, and later lied on his visa application to enter the US. He was arrested in Louisiana last year.Al-Muhtadi was allegedly a member of the Gaza-based terror group the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine and the National Resistance Brigades.He and his team were not aware of the Hamas attack before it took place, only finding out about the invasion on social media early in the morning of October 7, 2023, after the attack had started. The attackers killed some 1,200 people and took another 251 hostage.As part of the federal probe into Al-Muhtadi, investigators released transcripts of phone calls he made while preparing to join the attack. The calls were intercepted, recorded and translated from Arabic into English. Prosecutors had previously released fragments of the conversations in court filings. Israeli investigators are working with US authorities on the investigation.On the calls, Al-Muhtadi and his team are heard scrambling to join the Hamas attack by sharing information about the invasion, coordinating transportation and assembling weaponry.At 8:12 a.m., Al-Muhtadi told an associate on a phone call to “get ready,” that the “borders are open,” and that other individuals were passing by in a Toyota pickup truck, apparently to join the invasion.Thirty minutes later, still in Gaza, Al-Muhtadi and another individual celebrated and joked as they exchanged information about the attack.Both hailed the invasion, saying, “Our guys are celebrating inside [Israel],” and that Palestinians were celebrating in Gaza.The transcript indicated the pair repeatedly laughed during the call, including about the expected destruction of Gaza.“From now till the afternoon, half of Gaza will be lost. There will be nothing left except my kiosk,” Al-Muhtadi said.His associate said, “The Jews are still in shock.” Al-Muhtadi responded, “They are still drunk, because it’s the last day of their Eid,” using an Arabic term to apparently refer to Simhat Torah, the Jewish holiday on which the attack took place.The pair already knew that Israelis had been taken hostage. Al-Muhtadi said, “There is kidnapping, and it’s a game, which will be a good one.” He said he expected a hostage deal to lead to a ceasefire.“If things go the way they should, Syria will take part, Lebanon will take part, and it’s going to be a third world war,” he said. “This war will last two months, a month, or it will be a war of attrition.”They also joked about Palestinians who worked in Israel, saying, “No other workers will enter Israel, and Gaza will be set back about fifty years.”“The guys are calling, I swear by God. They want to go inside,” Al-Muhtadi said.Other call logs showed the banality of the preparations, as the terrorists discussed getting coffee, lacking space in a car used to invade Israel, searching for a “welding machine,” and whether they should close their stores. One of the terrorists on a call said he would meet the others inside Israel without any weapons because he couldn’t find any.By 9:33 a.m., Al-Muhtadi said on a call, “I went inside,” while laughing and telling two other terrorists, “Come in, boys.”Al-Muhtadi told his associates to turn off their phones on that call. Investigators later found that his phone had linked to a tower in Israel, near Kfar Aza, at around 10 a.m., indicating he had crossed the border.Court filings did not indicate whether Al-Muhtadi had killed or taken hostages during the attack.After he arrived in the US, messages showed that Al-Muhtadi was unconcerned about being arrested.In September 2024, a week after he entered the US, an associate advised Al-Muhtadi against communicating with “the resistance guys.”“You are now under surveillance for everything,” the associate said in a Facebook message, adding, “Do not publish anything.”“There is democracy here,” Al-Muhtadi told him.“If you post Al-Sinwar’s picture, no one will tell you anything,” he added in an apparent reference to the slain Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar.“Here, no one puts his nose in other people’s business. There is freedom,” he said.In a related case, a jury last month charged Al-Muhtadi’s wife, Nieama Hsnein Al-Ghazzawi, with conspiracy to commit visa fraud due to her role obtaining Al-Muhtadi a visa.Al-Ghazzawi, a US citizen, was indicted last month and the indictment was unsealed last week. Much of the case remains under seal.In January 2024, Al-Ghazzawi and Al-Muhtadi traveled from Gaza to Egypt in order to move to the US, prosecutors said. Al-Ghazzawi prepared a visa application for her husband, corresponded with the US State Department to arrange the visa and served as his visa sponsor.Al-Ghazzawi knowingly made false statements on Al-Muhtadi’s visa application, such as stating that her husband did not have firearms training, had never been in an armed group and had no ties to terrorism, prosecutors said.Investigators said that Al-Ghazzawi had in fact known about her husband’s membership in the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine and his participation in the October 2023 Hamas attack on Israel.Al-Ghazzawi emailed the crowdfunding platform GoFundMe to set up a charity campaign to cover her husband’s visa application fees and airfare, prosecutors said, in one of a series of US crowdfunding campaigns that allegedly raised funds for terror groups.Kfar Aza, where Al-Muhtadi allegedly crossed the border, was one of the communities hit hardest in the onslaught. During the attack, some 250 terrorists swarmed the unsuspecting community of around 950 residents. The attackers took over the village in an hour, killing 62 residents and 18 security personnel, and taking 19 civilians hostage.Prosecutors in the Al-Muhtadi case noted that a Tanzanian exchange student, Joshua Mollel, had been stabbed to death and shot by at least one member of the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine in the area of Kfar Aza during the attack, according to footage of Mollel’s killing.
2 children reported killed in strikes-IDF says Hamas Rafah Brigade chief, other terror commanders killed in Gaza strikes-Military says Nael Abu Obeid was a ‘central figure’ in Hamas who also headed its operations division; Islamic Jihad terrorist who invaded Israel on Oct. 7 among additional targets By Emanuel Fabian and Nurit Yohanan 15 September 2026, 8:57 pm
The military announced on Tuesday that several Hamas commanders and a Palestinian Islamic Jihad terrorist who invaded Israel on October 7, 2023, were killed in recent strikes in the Gaza Strip.The Israel Defense Forces and Shin Bet confirmed late Tuesday that Nael Abu Obeid, who commanded Hamas’s Rafah Brigade and headed its operations division, was among those killed, describing him as “central figure” in the terror group.According to a joint IDF and Shin Bet statement, Abu Obeid took over the role of Rafah Brigade commander following the killing of the brigade’s previous chief, Muhammad Shabana, on May 13, 2025, in a strike that also killed Hamas leader Mohammad Sinwar.As Rafah Brigade chief, the military said, Abu Obeid worked to rebuild Hamas’s capabilities and advance attacks on Israel.The IDF and Shin Bet did not specify where Abu Obeid was targeted on Tuesday. Palestinian media outlets affiliated with Hamas, reported that two people, including an 8-year-old girl, were killed and 14 others wounded in a strike in southern Gaza’s Khan Younis.“No terrorist is immune and Hamas won’t be in Gaza,” said both Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Israel Katz.???? ELIMINATED: Nael Abu Obeid, Commander of Hamas’ Rafah Brigade and Head of Hamas’ Military Wing Operations Array. Abu Obeid was a key figure among Hamas׳ senior leadership. He was responsible for managing the activities of the brigade’s terrorists and directing them to advance… https://t.co/n4o4IVWevS pic.twitter.com/DRvjc7vfYk Advertisement — Israel Defense Forces (@IDF) September 15, 2026-The IDF had earlier told The Times of Israel that a Tuesday strike on Gaza City’s Sheikh Radwan neighborhood targeted a terror operative in the area, and said further details would be provided later.Palestinian media in the Strip reported that two were killed in the strike, including a child identified as Muhammad al-Zinati; his age was not specified.The reports said that seven others were wounded in the strike.Witnesses said additional casualties resulted from a second strike that hit near a group of people who rushed to help in the rescue.An unverified video published by Palestinian media showed a missile exploding near at least five men.The IDF also announced Tuesday that it had killed two senior Hamas commanders in strikes the day before, as well as a member of the terror group’s weapons production unit.One of the commanders was identified as Ahmad al-Batash, who, according to the IDF, was the commander of the Jabalia Battalion in Hamas’s North Gaza Brigade. Palestinian media published a “martyr poster” identifying Batash as a senior commander in the terror group.He was killed in a strike on a car in northern Gaza late Monday night.As it has in the wake of other recent strikes, the military said Batash was involved lately in advancing attacks on troops and Israeli civilians and tried to restore Hamas’s capabilities “in systematic violation of the ceasefire.”“The terrorist was eliminated to remove the threat he posed,” the army said.The other senior Hamas commander was identified by the IDF as Rafat Abu Zamar, a company commander in the terror group’s operations division.According to the army, Abu Zamar led training for terrorists ahead of the October 7 onslaught, and recently was involved in training operatives and developing Hamas’s capabilities.A separate strike in Gaza City on Monday killed Muhammad Khader Fahmi Aghour, identified by the IDF as a member of Hamas involved in the production of weapons.The military said the strikes on Abu Zamar and Aghour were carried out after both were involved in advancing attacks and restoring Hamas capabilities “in systematic violation of the ceasefire.”On Thursday, an Israeli strike killed Muhammad Abdul Salam al-Yazouri, the commander of Hamas’s Khan Younis Brigade.In the past two weeks alone, some 25 terror operatives were killed in Israeli strikes in the Strip, including at least 10 commanders in Hamas’s elite Nukhba Force, according to the military.Palestinians held public funerals for Batash and Abu Zamar on Tuesday, with footage showing Batash’s body wrapped in a Hamas flag inside Gaza City’s Al Shifa Hospital, as an M16 assault rifle was placed on top of his body.“Israel thinks… it will eliminate the resistance and the spirit of jihad within us,” said Khalil Al-Batash, a relative of the dead Hamas commander.“I tell them that this cowardly operation only strengthens our people’s determination to continue on this path,” he told Reuters at the funeral.DF says weekend strike killed PIJ terrorist who attacked on Oct. 7-Separately, the IDF announced that a strike over the weekend killed a Palestinian Islamic Jihad terrorist who invaded Israel during the October 7 onslaught.The strike in Khan Younis killed Mohsen Farid Said Abu Hadaf, who the military said served as the commander of a rocket squad in the terror group.On October 7, Abu Hadaf raided the Kissufim area, according to the IDF.Recently, the military said, Abu Hadaf had been advancing attacks on troops and Israeli civilians “in systematic violation of the ceasefire.”“The terrorist was eliminated to remove the threat he posed,” the IDF added.The strike came nearly a year after a US-backed ceasefire took effect in October 2025, bringing an end to large-scale fighting but not to intermittent Israeli strikes in Gaza. Hamas has accused Israel of violating the agreement, while Israel has accused terror groups of repeatedly breaching it and continuing efforts to rebuild its military capabilities, saying this justified the strikes.The Gaza war began on October 7, 2023, when Hamas-led terrorists invaded southern Israel, killing some 1,200 people, mostly civilians, and taking 251 people hostage.The ensuing war between Israel and Hamas has killed over 73,400 people in Gaza, including more than 1,330 since the October 2025 ceasefire, according to the Hamas-run health ministry in the enclave, which does not differentiate between combatants and civilians.The Israeli military says it has killed over 24,000 combatants in Gaza and another 1,200 terrorists inside Israel during the October 7 onslaught. It believes that Hamas’s overall toll is largely accurate, with IDF officials estimating that two to three civilians were killed for every dead terror operative.Gaza remains bisected into Israeli- and Hamas-controlled areas, and talks to bring about Hamas’s disarmament and the territory’s reconstruction have made only limited progress.
Exclusive Some 2 million set to stay in tents for another winter-Gaza-bound technocrats draw up 71 rebuilding projects, which hinge on Israeli approval-Board of Peace-overseen committee tasked with replacing Hamas has detailed plans for first 6 months of work, but there’s no guarantee they’ll be able to start after Israeli election-By Jacob Magid 16 September 2026, 2:34 am
The new Palestinian technocratic government tasked with replacing Hamas in Gaza has crafted 71 projects for rehabilitating the war-decimated enclave, aiming to implement them in its first six months. Almost all of the plans, however, require significant cooperation from Israel, which has been largely reluctant to allow such efforts to date.The Times of Israel obtained a copy of the “6-Month Gaza Recovery Program” that was drawn up by the National Committee for the Administration of Gaza (NCAG) and finalized during a late-August meeting in London of its commissioners.The NCAG is being closely supervised by the Board of Peace, a US-controlled body that was given a UN Security Council mandate to oversee the postwar management of the Gaza Strip.The Recovery Program contains one-page summaries of the 71 projects, detailing their expected impact, the NCAG commissioner in charge and how much each will cost over a six-month period. They are designed in a way that potential donor countries and entities can adopt a particular project to bankroll.The total funding needed for all of the programs is roughly $6 billion. While the US secured pledges for $17 billion in February, only a tiny fraction of that has been delivered and many of the offers came from Gulf countries, which have since shifted priorities amid the Iran war.No start date is given for the projects, as almost all of them require the NCAG to first begin operating from inside Gaza. The technocratic committee has been stuck in Egypt since its establishment in January, as the Board of Peace spent months coaxing Hamas to accept a disarmament plan that would pave the way for the terror group to hand over control of Gaza to the NCAG.Hamas finally agreed on July 30, but progress has since been held up by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government, which rejects the disarmament plan, saying it will not withdraw the IDF from Gaza until the terror group gives up its arms completely.While Board of Peace officials believe Netanyahu’s opposition is motivated by the upcoming Knesset election and that the US-controlled panel will be able to advance the initiative after the vote, there are no guarantees that any Israeli government will be willing to cooperate substantially, particularly in the immediate period after the next one is established in November or December.Not wanting to halt operations completely in the interim, the Board of Peace has sought to advance smaller projects to repair water, sewage and sanitation infrastructure in the Strip. Netanyahu agreed to establish a working group with the Board of Peace to advance such efforts, but an official from the board admitted that those too were largely stuck due to Israeli foot-dragging.The stagnation means well over half of Gaza’s population of roughly 2 million are almost certain to spend another winter in tattered tents.Board of Peace officials have also received warnings from Israeli meteorological experts who forecast an earlier winter this year, with more extreme conditions than normal, the two sources familiar said.In the meantime, the Board of Peace is fine-tuning the NCAG projects and working to secure donations for them. They will be further discussed when senior representatives from both bodies meet on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly later this month, the sources said.Notably, the projects are far more modest than the high-end high-rises that were part of the master plan for a “Gaza Riviera” that US special envoy Jared Kushner pitched at the Board of Peace’s January unveiling.Their realization would still provide massive relief for Gazans by repairing roads, homes, schools, mosques, hospitals, ports and crossings; expanding fuel and food deliveries; upgrading internet and cellular connectivity; reviving the judicial system and a Palestinian airline; establishing warehouse and logistics hubs, a Gaza tech park, a new digital payment system, a center for alternative disputes and a community radio channel.There are also projects aimed at disarming Hamas, including the clearance of tunnels, a weapons buy-back program, mobilizing the International Stabilization Force and training a new Gaza police force.“The scope and level of detail reflected in this document demonstrate the seriousness and depth of the preparation underway. This is a working prioritization exercise, not a final, approved or fully funded project list, but it shows that incredibly meticulous implementation planning is taking place,” a Board of Peace spokesperson told The Times of Israel in a statement.“These are practical programs grounded in what Gaza’s people need, covering humanitarian delivery, health, education, infrastructure, employment, public services, civilian policing and accountable governance,” the statement said. “This is not a speculative vision for Gaza, nor simply another mechanism for managing the consequences of recurring conflict. It is serious planning for Gaza’s political, civilian and security transformation.”“Full implementation depends on verified demilitarization and practical Israeli cooperation. Once demilitarization occurs, there must be a credible plan ready to replace Hamas-controlled structures with a functioning Palestinian civilian administration and prevent Gaza from returning to the conditions that repeatedly produced instability and conflict,” it continued.“We believe this work is firmly in Israel’s interests: improving Palestinian lives, establishing accountable governance and creating the foundations for lasting security.”The statement also said that while the Board of Peace would prefer that the NCAG “present this evolving program directly to the Palestinian people and within its full political and operational context, the substance speaks for itself: serious, detailed preparations for what comes next.Some of the most notable projects are detailed below.Humanitarian shelters-This $1.05 billion project aims to provide caravans to roughly 400,000 Palestinians currently living in tents. This would suggest that the vast majority of those not included will remain in tents for the foreseeable future.The Recovery Program notes that Turkey has pledged to donate 70,000 mobile homes and that 5,000 mobile homes donated by Egypt and Qatar are currently sitting on the Egyptian side of the Gaza border due to Israel’s refusal to allow them into the Strip.Emirati neighborhood-This is expected to be the first major housing project advanced by the Board of Peace and is entirely funded by the United Arab Emirates.It will be able to house 50,000 people in a “dignified transitional humanitarian camp,” the Recovery Program states.The document acknowledges that additional approvals are still needed for the project, which is earmarked for the Rafah area of southern Gaza, including the signing of a memorandum of understanding between the NCAG and the UAE.Hospital rehabilitation-The Recovery Program includes two projects focused on rehabilitating Khan Younis’s European Hospital, northern Gaza’s Indonesian Hospital, and Gaza City’s Al-Rantisi Children’s, Al-Shifa, Al-Helo and Turkish-Palestinian Friendship Hospitals.The six medical centers were badly damaged during the war, with Israel revealing that they were used extensively by Hamas for military operations.Omari Mosque and Porphyrius Church-This $10 million project will repair two of Gaza’s most prominent religious sites.Back-to-school program-This $194 million program will refurbish 300 buildings to serve as schools, along with the establishment of 117 temporary classroom units capable of serving 315,900 students in total.Overseas studies-This project will serve the roughly 10,000 Palestinian students who were supposed to leave Gaza to study abroad before the war started.A US official told The Times of Israel that Israel has been seeking to exploit this program as part of the government’s efforts to “encourage the migration of” Palestinians from Gaza.The official stressed that this project will allow and encourage those who leave to study at universities abroad to return to Gaza afterward.Rafah logistics zone-This $25 million project aims to “provide a secure and efficient hub near the Rafah crossing for fuel storage and distribution, warehousing of humanitarian aid, loading operations and truck parking,” the Recovery Program states.It will allow for secure storage for humanitarian aid and up to 15 days’ worth of fuel for Gaza.Border crossing facilities-This $15 million dollar project would see the restoration of full operations at the Rafah crossing between Egypt and Gaza as well as the Karni and Erez Crossings between Israel and Gaza.The improvements would allow the number of trucks entering the Strip to climb from 300 trucks per day to 1,500; and for the number of passengers moving through Rafah to rise from 100 per day to 2,000.Supply chain rollout-This $23 million project will govern all private-sector goods entering and transiting through Gaza to end the current system that allows for diversion, hoarding and illegal taxation by Hamas and other armed groups.The project will also expand the number of Palestinian merchants who are allowed to import into Gaza, a figure that is currently capped by Israel.The plan aims to reduce prices of staple goods by 45% and fuel by 65%, with prices progressively returning toward pre-2023 levels.Palestinian Airlines-The proposed revival of Palestinian Airlines will likely require the cooperation of the Palestinian Authority, in addition to Israel, as Ramallah owns the company, which was liquidated in 2020 after years of limited operations.The airline has one remaining aircraft — a Fokker model — from its original fleet, and maintaining the plane is needed for the carrier to survive. But the aircraft stationed at Al-Arish Airport in Egypt has recently suffered from technical failures and significant repairs are needed.The $5 million project is aimed at “helping restore air-transport connectivity for passengers and supporting the movement of essential goods during the recovery period,” the Recovery Program states.Diesel generators and fuel-This $104 million project aims to immediately send into Gaza 260 diesel generators together with six months’ worth of operational fuel to help power critical health and educational facilities, as winter approaches.Weapons buyback policy and process-This project will facilitate the Board of Peace’s disarmament plan by offering compensation for those who return the estimated 100,000 small and medium arms held by individuals in Gaza.The Recovery Plan acknowledges that the exact details of the program, including the amount of compensation that will be offered for each weapon, have yet to be decided on by the Board of Peace.Training of security forces-This $143 million project aims to send the first 5,000 members of the new Gaza police force for 10 weeks of training in Egypt. This project — among others — has been held up by Israeli refusal to allow recruits to leave Gaza, even though those Palestinians cleared vetting by the Shin Bet security agency, Board of Peace officials told The Times of Israel last week.Police detention center-This project will establish a detention center in the Rafah area for up to 1,000 prisoners, including 200 high-security inmates and 100 female inmates, in order to promote law and order in the Strip.Mission support site-This base in Rafah will support up to 5,000 members of the International Stabilization Force, which is tasked with phasing out the IDF and securing Gaza’s borders.
Tensions flare in Syria’s Kurdish northeast as government integration deal moves ahead-Protesters block major highway amid discontent over rising fuel prices, the latest issue to spark concern among the Kurds, who fear losing their rights under new Syrian regime-By HOGIR AL ABDO and ABBY SEWELL Today, 1:39 am-SEP 17,26
KOBANI, Syria (AP) — Hundreds of oil tanker trucks were stranded in northeastern Syria’s Kurdish region Wednesday after demonstrators blocked a major highway near the town of Tal Tamr in protest over rising fuel prices.It was the latest evidence of rising discontent in the Kurdish region in the midst of a push to integrate a once-powerful Kurd-led force into Syria’s army and bring formerly autonomous institutions under the control of the central government.The integration agreement with the Syrian Democratic Forces has been widely regarded as a victory for the government of interim President Ahmad al-Sharaa.But in recent weeks, a series of issues have sparked discontent among Kurdish communities in formerly SDF-controlled areas, testing al-Sharaa’s ability to consolidate his rule and bring unity to a country emerging from 14 years of conflict.Snowballing Kurdish discontent-Kurds, who made up about 10% of Syria’s population of 23 million before the country’s civil war began in 2011, were long marginalized under the country’s then-ruling Assad dynasty. During the war, they carved out a de facto autonomous zone in the northeast.With the new post-war government now reasserting control over the northeast, Kurdish communities are anxious about losing the rights they had under self-rule.Students in the cities of Qamishli and Hassakeh have staged mass protests in recent weeks over a government decree that makes Kurdish an official language of instruction for the first time in Syrian history, but only provides for three classes a week in the language.Under the rule of former Syrian president Bashar al-Assad, the Kurdish language was banned in schools. But during the war, SDF-affiliated authorities in the northeast set up a school system teaching mostly in Kurdish.Anger rose further after a Kurdish former SDF fighter who had joined the Syrian army as part of the integration agreement between the SDF leadership and Damascus was abducted and killed by a group of Arab men in Hassakeh earlier this month.Then prisoners rioted in a jail in the Kurdish-majority city of Kobani, igniting a fire that killed nine detainees. Former SDF commander Mazloum Abdi, now an advisor to al-Sharaa, traveled to the city to attend the funeral and attempted to defuse the anger.“There is an outburst of tension among the people here,” Masoud Bouzi, a resident of Kobani, said as shops around the city shuttered as part of a day of mourning on Sunday. “This discontent will have a negative impact on the ongoing process here, the integration process — and it already has.”Fuel price hikes worsen angst-On Sunday, the government hiked gasoline prices by about 30% and diesel by 40%, citing rising global fuel prices due to the US-Iran war and repair work at the Baniyas refinery on the country’s coast.Protests broke out in several areas, including in the northeast, where residents were already feeling the pinch of increased fuel prices. When northeast Syria — including its oil fields — was under the SDF’s control, fuel was heavily subsidized. After the central government took control, removing those subsidies shocked people there, even before the most recent price hike.Demonstrators shut down the M4 highway near the town of Tal Tamr, blocking trucks bringing oil from the Qamishli and Rmeilan oil fields, and announced that they would only reopen the route if the price increases are reversed.Noah Bonsey, senior adviser on Syria with the International Crisis Group, said the anger over fuel hikes has the potential to be “a real obstacle to the integration process.”“Among Kurds who are open to some of the benefits of integration, the rising cost of living undermines potential support,” Bonsey said. “Among opponents of integration, it’s just one more reason to object.”Future of women’s fighting units debated-Another point of dispute has been the fate of all-women fighting units of the now-dissolved SDF.The Women’s Protection Units, or YPJ, played a significant role in the fight against the Islamic State militant group in northeast Syria. But the current military authorities in Damascus, most of whom came out of the Islamist former insurgent groups that overthrew Assad, are opposed to women in combat.YPJ commander Nowruz Ahmad told the Associated Press that the group’s leaders had requested integration into the interior ministry’s security forces as a regiment within the special missions department.“They said there are women inside the ministry and within General Security, and we would like to increase the number of them and we don’t have any issues with that,” she said. “But it can’t be within the special mission forces.”Ahmad said the YPJ had also requested to remain in their current region of operation, in Hassakeh and Aleppo provinces and the government had been open to that request, but that details remained “under discussion.” The force currently has about 1,500 women enlisted, down from 5,000 at its peak, she said.“The important thing is to preserve the essence and the substance of this force for the protection of women, the protection of the movement, and for the protection of our region especially,” she said.Interior Ministry officials declined to comment on the negotiations.Progress continues on deal implementation-Bonsey said the tensions should not overshadow how far the two sides have come since January, when the integration deal reached between the central government in Damascus and the SDF halted weeks of fighting.“For them to have both stepped back from that further brink, negotiated an integration deal that not only stopped the fighting, that they’ve actually moved on to gradually flesh out and implement, is itself quite an accomplishment,” he said.The agreement’s implementation has “entailed compromises made by both sides – albeit tilted in favor of Damascus, which is the stronger party,” he said. “You have a challenging, but overall positive dynamic, and then obviously you have all these major obstacles on the ground.”
Israel and Morocco agree to appoint ambassadors, upgrade ties as FMs meet-Touting the ‘deep roots and rich history’ of Jewish-Moroccan ties, Sa’ar says the newly signed agreements are ‘for the benefit of both peoples’By Lazar Berman Today, 12:56 am-SEP 17,26
Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar met with his Moroccan counterpart in the United States on Wednesday, a day after the sixth anniversary of the Abraham Accords, for a meeting aimed at deepening the ties between the two countries.The meeting, hosted by the US Ambassador to the United Nations Mike Waltz in New York, focused on a series of agreements to upgrade the bilateral relationship, according to the Foreign Ministry.Sa’ar and Moroccan Foreign Minister Nasser Bourita agreed to upgrade their diplomatic representation, appointing ambassadors and turning their diplomatic missions into full embassies.They also agreed to increase flights between the countries, hold high-level visits in the coming months, and conclude investment and tax agreements by the end of the year.“The friendship between the Moroccan and Jewish peoples has deep roots and a rich history,” said Sa’ar. “The declaration we signed today outlines practical ways to upgrade ties between Israel and Morocco for the benefit of both peoples, and we will work to implement it.”Waltz held a separate event on Tuesday to mark the anniversary of the Abraham Accords with officials from the other countries as well: the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain and Kazakhstan, the latter of which is a recent addition.Wednesday’s meeting came after direct flights between Israel and Morocco resumed last month for the first time since the October 7, 2023, Hamas-led terror attack prompted Israeli carriers to suspend flights to the North African country.Since the signing of the Israel-Morocco normalization agreement in December 2020 and until the Hamas attack that sparked the Gaza war, Morocco had been a popular destination for Israeli travelers, and the Moroccan Tourism Ministry estimated that some 200,000 Israelis visited in the year before the attack.Much of the relationship between Jerusalem and Rabat has taken place out of the public eye since October 7, with the Moroccan envoy to Israel avoiding public events, as the Gaza war proved unpopular among the Moroccan public and mass anti-Israel protests became a regular feature there.Still, Moroccan authorities have gone after anti-Israel activists who have criticized the country’s ties with Israel and praised terror attacks against the Jewish state, and defense cooperation has continued.In January, Israel and Morocco signed a joint military work plan for 2026, in what was the third meeting of their Joint Military Committee.At the center of the visit was a panel focusing on force build-up from a strategic perspective and shared objectives for cooperation between the two militaries, according to the IDF at the time.It described Morocco as a “key partner for regional stability.”Zev Stub and Stav Levaton contributed to this report.
Level 3 travel advisory no deterrent for Israeli tourists-Israeli travelers returning to Morocco as direct flights resume after three years
Travel industry sources report renewed interest in Morocco’s synagogues, cemeteries and historic Jewish quarters, as well as kosher travel and heritage tours By Zev Stub 16 September 2026, 7:11 pm
Israeli travelers are beginning to return to Morocco after direct flights between the two countries resumed last month for the first time in almost three years, according to travel agents and tour operators.A route between Ben Gurion Airport and Marrakech, relaunched last month by Arkia Israel Airlines, is the first direct service available since Israeli carriers stopped flying there after the October 7, 2023, Hamas terror attack. As many as 200,000 Israelis visited in the year before the attack, according to Moroccan Tourism Ministry estimates.Travel demand has quickly grown despite the National Security Council’s Level 3 travel advisory for Morocco, which calls for increased caution in parts of the country, travel agents said. Arkia currently operates two flights a week, on Mondays and Wednesdays. Israir and Sun D’Or are also planning to launch similar routes after the holiday season. El Al has not yet announced plans to resume flights.Morocco was a hot destination for Israelis before demand dried up virtually overnight after the October 7 attack. After the country normalized diplomatic relations with Israel in December 2020 as part of the US-brokered Abraham Accords, direct flights between the two became available for the first time. Until then, travel was only available indirectly through connecting flight routes.“Now, Israelis have started to come back again,” said Jamal Benkirane, a tour guide in Marrakech who has guided Israeli groups. “There is a lot of Jewish history here, with many Jewish tombs and synagogues. Every big city has kosher food now.”The reopening of the Arkia route followed months of discussions between aviation and security officials in both countries. Transportation Minister Miri Regev joined the inaugural flight in late August.Demand has been particularly strong for organized tours during the autumn and early winter season, Eshet Tours CEO Gil Hahn noted. Heritage “roots” tours have become popular among Israelis of Moroccan descent, who number as many as a million people, according to some estimates.But the revival is not limited to Israelis with Moroccan roots, said Mark Feldman, CEO of Ziontours Jerusalem.“Without discounting the roots trips, the Ashkenazim are going just as much,” Feldman said. “Most of our tours are going to see the country and its strong Jewish history, even if it’s not their personal history.”A rich Jewish history — and easy access to kosher meals-Marrakech is home to some of Morocco’s most prominent Jewish heritage sites, including its Mellah Jewish quarter, which dates back to the 1500s, Benkirane said. Alongside the Slat Al Azama Synagogue, founded in 1492 by Sephardic Jews fleeing Spain, and the Miaâra Jewish cemetery, the city is home to six kosher restaurants today, he noted.Fez, once home to the medieval Jewish philosopher Maimonides and Talmudic commentator Isaac Alfasi, also has a number of Jewish heritage sites, as does the coastal city of Rabat, Benkirane said. Casablanca’s Jewish presence is relatively new compared to those cities, but, with an estimated 1,000 to 2,000 Jews and active synagogues and schools, its Jewish community is the largest in the Arab world today.Tours of the country typically run 7-10 days and are best organized with local tour guides who can provide transportation between cities and through desert sites, said Ophir Tours deputy chairman Yoni Waxman. Observance of Jewish traditions, once a logistical headache, is now relatively easy in Morocco, he said.“The infrastructure for kosher is very strong,” Waxman said. “It’s very easy to find kosher food and religious services there.”The Israeli government currently has assessed a Level 3 threat advisory for Morocco, recommending increased caution in the north and central regions and advising against non-essential travel to the south. However, travel industry officials said they nonetheless consider the main tourist routes manageable.“The security level is quite high, and the government is very much involved,” Waxman said. “They know they need to keep tourists safe to bring back visitors.”Feldman, meanwhile, is more measured in his outlook about the security situation, saying he views it with “cautious optimism.”The Moroccan travel partners his company works with “are incredibly friendly, and love working with Israelis,” but anti-Israel protests in recent years have left him a bit skeptical, Feldman said. “We’re selling it to customers, but more cautiously than we did before.”Travelers should keep in mind that the country is less developed than many European and American destinations, and adjust their expectations accordingly, Feldman said. Tourists should generally expect three- and four-star hotels rather than the luxury resorts found at some European and American destinations, he noted.Israelis are advised to choose only direct flights from Israel to minimize travel risks, and to purchase comprehensive travel insurance, Feldman said. But customer service there is generally good, and shopping is generally inexpensive, he added.“For most travelers, it’s a very exotic location,” Feldman said. “There’s a big ‘wow factor’ your first time there.”The renewed interest in Morocco comes as Israeli travelers and airlines increasingly look beyond traditional European and American destinations, due in part to rising antisemitism. Airlines are also seeking routes to farther-flung markets in Asia and elsewhere where they can face less competition from low-cost carriers, Feldman noted.Morocco, meanwhile, offers Israeli travelers a combination of the familiar and the exotic: deep Jewish history alongside a distinctly unique travel experience.“It’s a country with a strong and proud Jewish tradition,” Feldman said. “It’s a good travel option today in 2026.”

Like a famous WWII Belgian General,Paul Henry Spock said in 1957:We need no commission, we have already too many. What we need is a man who is great enough to be able to keep all the people in subjection to himself and to lift us out of the economic bog into which we threaten to sink. Send us such a man. Be he a god or a devil, we will accept him.And today, sadly, the world is indeed ready for such a man.

According to ancient oriental usage, slaves and soldiers bore the name or stamp of their master or commander branded or pricked (cut) into their bodies to indicate what master or general they belonged to, and there were even some devotees who stamped themselves in this way with the token of their gods (cf. Deyling, Observations, iii., p. 423ff); hence, τά στίγματα τοῦ (κυρίου so Rec.)

LUKE 21:29-31
THE fig-tree is the well-known Scripture emblem representing the nation of Israel; “all the trees,” in the parable now before us, represent accordingly the various nations which have to do with Israel (Luke 21:29-31).
The Lord was giving utterance to His great Olivet prophecy. His sorrowful words about the temple being laid in ruins had drawn forth a series of questions from His surprised disciples. In His reply He spoke not only of the impending desolation by the Romans under Titus (which is the prominent feature in Luke’s account), but also of Israel’s last bitter sorrow when the Antichrist is in power in Jerusalem. Concerning the latter, reference must be made to Matthew and Mark for full particulars. In all three Gospels it is made abundantly clear that deliverance will be brought in by the appearing of the Son of man in the clouds of heaven.Our parable runs thus: “Behold the fig-tree, and all the trees; when they now shoot forth, ye see and know of your own selves that summer is now nigh at hand. So likewise ye, when ye see these things come to pass, know ye that the Kingdom of God is nigh at hand.” We are thus entitled to expect signs of life to manifest themselves in Israel and in the nations with which she has special dealings, before the Saviour’s coming to earth to inaugurate the visible Kingdom of God. This is suggestive that that great event is near, for it is indisputable that remarkable movements are proceeding amongst the people in question. The Zionest Congresses have revived the national spirit of Israel in a marvelous degree; the past few years have witnessed similar revivals of the national spirit in Greece, Italy, Egypt, and other powers, who have their respective parts to play in the stirring events that will wind up the present age. More extensive developments will yet be witnessed. Edom, Moab, Ammon, etc., long lost to view as nations, are destined to re-assert themselves and fall into position for the last great tragedy, if Scripture is to be credited. The Eastern Question, so often discussed, is in reality the Israel Question. Its center is not Constantinople but Jerusalem. This political problem, so long the vexation of statesmen, will not be settled until the Son of man comes forth from heaven and takes the affairs of earth in hand as the only rightful King of Kings and Lord of lords. Then Israel’s tribes will be re-established in the land of their fathers, and their foes and His will be put down forever. The world’s summer-time is indeed at hand, but desolating judgment storms must needs spend their force ere it can be brought in.Meanwhile, believers in the Lord Jesus have an even more glorious expectation. For them the Saviour has promised to descend into the air with a shout, calling them home. In that moment of moments every sleeping believer will be raised from the tomb, and every living believer will be changed, and so be caught up to be forever with the Lord. The precious atoning blood entitles them to this, who otherwise had no hope and no claim, and no due but eternal woe. The removal of the whole Christian host will doubtless come as a tremendous shock to the world; but this must be ere the world’s last fearful tragedy begins.
I ALSO TAKE THIS ALL THE TREES TO MEAN. SINCE ISRAEL IS REBORN ON MAY 14,1948. THIS IS THE BEGGING OF ISRAEL. I TAKE AND ALL THE TREES TO POSSIBLY MEAN SINCE THE USELESS UNITED NATIONS WAS ALSO BORN AROUND THAT TIME. I TAKE AND ALL THE TREES TO MEAN. THE BEGGING OF THE WORLD GOVERNMENT ALSO. AND ALSO I TAKE ALL THE TREES TO MEAN. ALL THE TREES (INDEPENDENT WORLD NATIONS) WILL JOIN THE EUROPEAN UNION (AS ASSOCIATE MEMBERS) AFTER THE UNITED NATIONS FOLDS TO BECOME THE WORLD ECONOMIC LEADER DICTATOR. THEN THERE WILL BE I BELIEVE 13 EU MAIN COUNTRIES.AND AT SOME POINT.3 GETS BOOTED OUT.WHICH LEAVES 10 MAIN EU COUNTRYS.
Daniel 7:7-8 KJV (King James Version)
After this I saw in the night visions, and behold a fourth beast, dreadful and terrible, and strong exceedingly; and it had great iron teeth: it devoured and brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with the feet of it: and it was diverse from all the beasts that were before it; and it had ten horns. I considered the horns, and, behold, there came up among them another little horn,(EU WORLD DICTATOR) before whom there were three of the first horns plucked up by the roots:(3 COUNTRIES EITHER BOOTED FROM THE EU OR DROPS TO ASSOCIATE MEMBERS INSTEAD. and, behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of man, and a mouth speaking great things.
I BELIEVE THE 3 BOOTED OUT WILL BE FROM THE ORIGINAL 6 COUNTRIES.
In 1957, the three Benelux countries (Belgium, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg) joined three other European nations to sign the Treaty of Rome, becoming the six founding members of the European Economic Community (EEC).These six countries—collectively known as the "Inner Six"—laid the structural groundwork for what is known today as the European Union:The 6 Founding Members (1957) Belgium (Benelux member) Netherlands (Benelux member) Luxembourg (Benelux member) France, West Germany, Italy.
WE KNOW ONE OF THE 3 BOOTED WILL BE GERMANY BECAUSE WHEN RUSSIA AND MUSLIMS MARCH AGAINST ISRAEL IN EZEK 38/39. GERMANY WILL BE WITH RUSSIA.NETHERLANDS AND BELGIUM POSSIBLY THE OTHER 2. THIS IS JUST MY MINDS VIEW ABOUT IT. THE BIBLE SAYS NOTHING ABOUT THE COUNTRIES BOOTED OUT OR DROPPED TO ASSOCIATE MEMBERS.
AND TO MAKE IT A WORLD GOVERNMENT LEAD BY THE EUROPEAN UNION. AS THE WORLD COUNTRIES (OR INDEPENDENT TREES) JOIN THE EU. THEY WILL GET PUT INTO 10 WORLD TRADE BLOCS I BELIEVE.ABOVE.AND THE EU WORLD DICTATOR LEADS THE EU WORLD GOVERNMENT FOR THE LAST 3 1/2 YEARS OF THE 7 YEAR TRIBULATION PERIOD.S0 WORLD GOVERNMENT WILL ON BE FOR THE LAST 3 1/2 YEARS OF THE 7 YEAR TRIBULATION PERIOD.

8 And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.(HERE AGAIN ALL ON EARTH UNDER HIS CONTROL)

BUT AT THE END OF JESUS' THOUSAND YEAR RULE.SATAN HAS TO BE FREED FROM THE CURRENT HELL TO TEST ALL THE PEOPLE BORN IN THAT 1,000 YEAR PERIOD. AND THIS WILL BE NO SURPRISE.ANTISEMITISM AGAINST ISRAEL AND JESUS WILL BE MILLONS OF PEOPLE AGAIN.ONCE AGAIN THE SATAN LEAD GODLESS WILL GO UP TO TRY TO STEAL JERUSALEM FROM JESUS AND ISRAEL.BUT THE FATHER GOD WILL SEND FIRE FROM HEAVEN TO BURN THEM UP.

13 And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.
14 And the armies (RAPTURED CHRISTIANS 7 YEARS EARLIER) which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.
15 And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.
16 And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, King Of Kings, And Lord Of Lords.

EU chief wants Canada to become bloc’s first ‘associate member’European Commission president calls to ‘reimagine partnerships’ with invite to Canadian premier as Ottawa pivots diplomatically amid US trade war, but concept unclear By Julia Payne and Ingrid Melander 16 September 2026, 6:40 pm
BRUSSELS (Reuters) — European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said on Wednesday she wanted to open the door to Canada becoming the EU’s first “associate member” in a push to forge new links among allies in “an openly hostile world.”EU lawmakers gave a standing ovation after she made the proposal and then walked over to embrace Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney, who was in the European Parliament to hear her annual State of the Union address.New partnerships were needed “in the cold fragility of today’s world,” von der Leyen told the assembly in Strasbourg.The 27-nation bloc faces war at its borders, with Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, which is not a member of the EU but is in the membership accession process. Both the EU and Canada have also been facing stiff rivalry on trade and other issues from the administration of US President Donald Trump and from an increasingly assertive China.‘Europe and Canada believe in democracy’“I said we must urgently reimagine our partnerships. So, I would like to work with you on opening the door for Canada to be the first associate member of the EU,” von der Leyen said.The EU and Canada “see the world with the same eyes: from AI to climate change, from the Arctic to geopolitics. And we have stood together: on Ukraine, on defense, on raw materials and on supply chains. But above all… Europe and Canada believe in democracy,” von der Leyen told the assembly.It will be up to EU member states, and not von der Leyen alone, to determine whether her proposal goes ahead.The EU has historically resisted such types of flexible alliances that have no legal status. EU members were lukewarm in reacting to Germany’s proposal in May of associate membership for Ukraine as a stepping stone to full accession.One EU diplomat expressed surprise at von der Leyen’s proposal, saying “nobody really knows what it means.” The diplomat added there were concerns that the European Commission chief “is overpromising and won’t be able to deliver.”Ahead of von der Leyen’s speech, seven EU diplomats in Canada and Europe had told Reuters there were active efforts toward deeper collaboration with Ottawa on trade, defense and digital security, but no specific plan for a more comprehensive Canadian-EU relationship had been discussed at a high level.Significant obstacles also remain to ramping up trade. Mark Manger, a professor of political economy and global affairs at the University of Toronto, has said EU officials have been frustrated by Canada’s refusal to open two industries it protects at great expense: telecommunications and dairy.‘Unique alliance’Canada’s Carney said earlier this week Canada was seeking a “unique alliance” with the EU but not membership. He will make his own address to the European Parliament on Thursday.Carney’s European trip follows a historic breakdown in Canada-US relations after trade talks collapsed last month, sparking a series of tit-for-tat tariff measures.He has pledged to double Canada’s non-US trade in the next decade as the country pivots away from its southern neighbor amid an increasingly acrimonious trade war.Carney said on Tuesday more detailed discussions would begin at the Canada-EU summit in Montreal in late October.“Our relationship with the EU has become increasingly close, especially over the past year and a half,” Canadian Foreign Minister Anita Anand told Reuters.In her speech, von der Leyen said the EU and Canada will work together across sectors.“We will work on intelligent manufacturing. We will create a tech alliance. We will integrate defense industrial bases. We will make the Arctic a flagship joint project,” she said.“Partnerships are a strategic choice for Europe. But they also respond to the fracture in the international rules-based system,” she added.Von der Leyen said, “This is a partnership not against anyone else.”
Court freezes key step in government’s controversial West Bank land registration process-Critics who said process was ‘de facto annexation’ welcome freeze; reservist removed from duty after spotted confronting Palestinian youth; commandos nab ‘senior’ Islamic Jihad member
By Jeremy Sharon, Emanuel Fabian and Nurit Yohanan Today, 4:00 am-SEP 17,26
The Jerusalem District Court on Wednesday issued a temporary order freezing the tender process for the government’s controversial West Bank land registration project, which critics have described as “de facto annexation” of the territory.The court ordered the Justice Ministry, Defense Ministry and other agencies to respond to those petitioning for the freeze by next Thursday.The court did not give a reason for the freeze, but it was welcomed by the organizations that had petitioned against the land registration process, including Yesh Din, Bimkom and the Association for Civil Rights in Israel, which said in their petition that the process violates international law.“The renewal of the land registration process in the West Bank constitutes a clear act of annexation, and the tender for administering it was carried out without authority and unlawfully,” they said in a statement following the ruling.“The tender, and the process as a whole, must be voided, since its implementation and execution will lead to widespread harm to the human rights of Palestinians and a flagrant violation of international law.”In February, the cabinet approved the renewal of the land registration process in the West Bank that was frozen in 1968, the year after Israel took the territory from Jordan in the Six Day War. The goal of renewing the process was to enable the registration of broad swaths of land as state land that could then be used for Israeli development.The ownership of some two-thirds of all West Bank land has never been formally registered. After the cabinet approval, the Justice Ministry issued a tender for private contractors to carry out the land registration process, and the tender was recently awarded.The three Israeli civil rights organizations filed legal petitions against the renewal of the process, arguing that land registration violates international law since Israel holds the West Bank under what is known as a belligerent occupation, in which actions permanently altering the status of the territory are prohibited.Civil rights groups have expressed concern that since the declared goal of the land registration process is to advance settlement development, it would likely be extremely hard for Palestinians in Area C to effectively register their private property.The government’s controversial bid to renew the land registration process came amid an unchecked spate of settler violence against Palestinians, which critics have accused the government and military of ignoring, or even encouraging.Extremist settlers have also engaged in a campaign of violence and harassment against Palestinians in rural communities, leading to the depopulation and dispossession of dozens of them.Over the last four years, the government built and approved for construction an unprecedented number of settlements and settlement housing units in the West Bank, alongside the construction of some 200 illegal settlement outposts and farming outposts in the territory.On Wednesday, Palestinian media reported that settlers had set fire overnight to a structure used for agricultural purposes in the village of Tuwani, in the southern West Bank’s South Hebron Hills.There were no reports of injuries in the incident.In a rare instance of intervention, however, the IDF said on Wednesday that a reservist who was filmed pointing his gun at Palestinians in a West Bank village had his reserve duty terminated following the incident.On Sunday, the reservist was filmed confronting several young Palestinians in the village of Beit Ummar, near Hebron. In footage circulated on social media, he can be seen standing next to a civilian vehicle, partially dressed in IDF fatigues and pointing a rifle at the Palestinians.In a response to The Times of Israel, the IDF said that “troops were dispatched to the outskirts of the village of Beit Ummar in the Etzion Brigade area following footage and a report of a civilian confronting several Palestinians inside the village, following an earlier altercation between them.”The military said that “the civilian is a reservist who entered the village without the proper authority or authorization and left upon the arrival of the troops. His reserve service was terminated and the incident was investigated.”The reservist served in a Hagmar regional defense unit, which are made up of West Bank settlers.Separately Wednesday, the IDF announced that Israeli commandos nabbed a “senior” member of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad terror group during a raid in the West Bank town of Burqin, near Jenin.Soldiers of the Duvdevan Commando Unit raided Burqin and apprehended Mohammed Saadi, following information on his whereabouts provided by the Shin Bet.The IDF said Saadi was a senior member of a Jenin-area terror network that was dismantled in early 2025, was affiliated with Islamic Jihad, and was “involved in managing and directing funds for terror activities.”

When Dror Strassman was born prematurely in March 2025, she weighed 650 grams (1 pound, 7 ounces) — about as much as a loaf of sandwich bread.Born at just over 25 weeks’ gestation, Dror spent 99 days in the neonatal intensive care unit at Meir Medical Center in Kfar Saba.“With all that hospital equipment and machinery surrounding her, I felt completely helpless,” Dror’s mother, Tal Strassman, told The Times of Israel by telephone. “You feel like you’ve lost yourself in every direction. The whole environment feels so sterile and overwhelming for both the mother and the baby.”Strassman, a social worker, then heard about “Lev shel Ima,” or “Close to the Heart,” an initiative launched in 2019 by occupational therapist Dr. Adi Freund-Azaria.The project uses smell to ease the physical and emotional separation between a mother and her premature baby, Freund-Azaria told“Research has shown that a mother’s scent stabilizes her baby’s heart rate, reduces stress, and improves vital signs,” Freund-Azaria said. “Meanwhile, the baby’s scent boosts oxytocin levels in the mother, helping her ease her separation anxiety and breast milk production.The idea is simple, but it is evidence-based. The mother wears a soft fabric heart against her skin to absorb her scent. It is then sealed inside a plastic bag before being placed inside the incubator beside her baby. In return, the mother takes home another fabric heart that has absorbed her infant’s scent.“I had nothing else to do to improve the situation, so I tried it,” Strassman said. “I wore a heart against my skin for a whole day so my scent would absorb deeply into the cloth. It was then placed inside the incubator next to my daughter, and my scent helped calm her. It gave her an immediate boost. From my perspective as a mother, I felt like that little cloth heart meant the whole world to her. It also gave me a little sense of control in a situation where I felt so powerless.”The hospital’s initiative has helped dozens of premature babies and their mothers, Freund-Azaria said.A second “Close to the Heart” initiative began in July at the Hillel Yaffe Medical Center’s Newborn and Neonatal Care Department in Hadera.The scented-heart exchange draws on principles developed through the Newborn Individualized Developmental Care and Assessment Program (NIDCAP), created in the 1980s by Dr. Heidelise Als at Boston Children’s Hospital.NIDCAP focuses on protecting premature babies’ developing brains from sensory overload and involving parents more closely in their care. Neonatal intensive care units in North America, Europe, Australia and Israel now use a variety of scent-exchange programs.According to Freund-Azaria, when babies are born prematurely, their physiological systems haven’t developed completely.“At precisely this time in the intensive care unit, they are overstimulated by so many strong negative stimuli such as disinfectants, bright lights and noise,” she said. “The NIDCAP principles seek to reduce sensory overload.”Freund-Azaria said occupational therapists help support premature infants’ development while teaching parents how to take an active role in their care.“In developmental care, strengthening the parent–infant relationship involves the senses,” Freund-Azaria said. “We encourage parents to talk and sing to their baby, have eye contact and face-to-face interaction, and emphasize ‘skin-to-skin’ contact.”But the hospital’s occupational therapists realized they “were paying so much attention to sound, vision and touch, and much less attention to the sense of smell.”This awareness led them to search for ways to bring the mother’s familiar scent into the incubator.“A baby already knows their mother’s scent through the amniotic fluid,” Freund-Azaria said.“When parents feel empowered rather than helpless on the other side of the incubator glass, the entire developmental trajectory changes,” she said. “Smell provides such a strong connection, offering comfort to both the baby in the incubator and the mother recovering outside of it.”“When we started the project, we saw the change immediately,” Freund-Azaria said. “Babies who were in distress calmed down. Their vital signs stabilized. Their behavioral responses improved.”Noa Temime, a NICU nurse and lactation consultant at Tel Aviv Sourasky University Medical Center, said there is a narrow “window of opportunity” in the NICU “during which we can support the baby’s brain development.”She said the goal is to reduce “potentially harmful stimuli and enhance positive ones.”For example, Temime said that parents disinfect their hands with alcohol before touching their baby to protect them from infection.However, “if they do not allow the alcohol to evaporate before placing their hands inside the incubator, which is a small, enclosed space, the smell can become trapped inside, and this can be unpleasant or overstimulating for the baby,” Temime said.“A mother’s scent may serve as an anchor of safety and familiarity for the baby,” she said.For Freund-Azaria, the scented-heart initiative grew not only from her professional knowledge but also from her personal experience.“My oldest daughter was born prematurely 21 years ago and spent three weeks in the NICU,” she said. “It was so hard for me to leave her and feel so far away. Now I think about how I could have left her with my scent. A mother’s scent is comforting. It’s familiar.”
'A toxic legacy'Critics say upcoming UN Durban commemoration whitewashes antisemitic 2001 conference-Anti-racism gathering marred by antisemitism and Hitler support to be reaffirmed later this month for 25th anniversary, drawing pushback from Israeli and US missions
By Luke Tress Today, 3:01 am-SEP 17,26
NEW YORK — The Israeli mission to the United Nations and other critics have pushed back against an upcoming UN commemoration of the 2001 Durban conference against racism, an event that critics see as a landmark in contemporary discrimination against Jews.Israel’s ambassador to the UN, Danny Danon, on Tuesday called for a boycott of the event.“Do not legitimize this toxic legacy,” he said. “There is nothing to celebrate about 25 years of antisemitism and incitement against Israel.”The UN World Conference Against Racism, Racial Discrimination, Xenophobia and Related Intolerance, held in Durban, South Africa in 2001, brought together thousands of representative from around the world to establish an agreed-upon agenda for combating racism.The conference was marred by antisemitism and extremist rhetoric against Israel, especially at an NGO forum held in parallel to the governmental conference.The NGO forum, attended by 50,000, overwhelmingly focused on Israel, as panelists and protesters railed against the Jewish state. NGOs sold the antisemitic forgery “The Protocols of the Elders of Zion,” activists distributed pamphlets supporting Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler, and protesters shared caricatures of hook-nosed Jews spearing Palestinian children, with blood dripping from their fangs, according to a Jewish Telegraphic Agency report from the conference.During a march, activists held a placard that said, “Hitler should have finished the job.” Jewish students in attendance were harassed, ostracized and subjected to antisemitic chants.The US and Israeli delegations and the Jewish caucus left the conference in protest.The conference is seen as a turning point because it framed Israel as a racist violator of human rights in a global forum, providing a blueprint for anti-Zionist activism. While the UN General Assembly adopted a resolution in 1975 declaring Zionism was racism, it was repealed a decade before Durban.An NGO declaration adopted at the conference accused Israel of racism, war crimes, apartheid, genocide and ethnic cleansing, the Jewish Telegraphic Agency reported. The accusations have since become commonplace in leftist discourse.The governmental 2001 Durban declaration, issued alongside the NGO gathering, took a more moderate tone toward Israel. The declaration recognized the “right to security” for all Middle Eastern states, “including Israel,” and said the Holocaust “must never be forgotten.”Jewish community advocates have objected to the declaration, though, because Israel is the only country singled out in the document.The declaration expresses “concern about the plight of the Palestinian people under foreign occupation” and recognizes Palestinians have a right to self-determination.Critics have said that singling out Israel alone in a landmark declaration about racism associates Israel with racism and recasts the conflict as racial, not political.Anne Bayefsky, the director of New York’s Touro Institute on Human Rights and the president of the Human Rights Voices advocacy group, said, “The Durban Declaration claims that Palestinians are ‘victims’ of Israeli racism.”“Israel is the only named country, the sole identifiably racist country on earth,” Bayefsky, who attended the 2001 Durban conference, said in an interview. “Durban spins the cause of Palestinians into a racial one, pitting non-Jews against allegedly racist Jews, in the name of combating racism.”This year’s commemoration will take place on September 28, during the UN’s annual General Assembly, to mark the 25th anniversary of the Durban conference. Announcing the event, the UN said that the anniversary is an “an opportunity to accelerate collective efforts to combat racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerance.”None of the UN materials promoting the anniversary mention Israel or the 2001 conference’s antisemitism, but hail the Durban declaration as the UN’s “blueprint to combat racism.”A draft of the declaration planned for the upcoming commemoration calls to “reaffirm” the original Durban declaration, without mentioning Israel or any other states.Danon told The Times of Israel earlier this month that the Israeli mission to the UN is pushing countries to boycott “this circus.”“I hope them to remind them what happened 25 years ago and why it should not be celebrated, and I hope that many countries will not take part this year,” Danon said.Some countries have said they will not participate, while others will send a low-level diplomat instead of a more prominent representative, Danon said.“The headline is to fight hate and to fight incitement, but the content is all about promoting hate and promoting incitement against Israel,” he said. “It’s actually hypocritical, and maybe we got used to it at the UN, but when it comes to the Durban Conference, it’s a symbol of that.”A petition asking world leaders to withdraw from the conference has garnered more than 10,000 signatures.Jewish groups including the Anti-Defamation League have also opposed the commemoration and urged states to boycott.Bayefsky said the commemoration will “deny what actually happened at Durban, misrepresent it and then repeat it. Not just to whitewash the despicable reality of UN-driven antisemitism, but also to embrace the messaging.”At a July General Assembly hearing, a US representative Dan Negrea said the commemoration will “celebrate a toxic legacy. The United States will have no part in it.”“The original 2001 Durban Conference was not an honest effort to combat racism. It was hijacked and transformed into a vile platform for anti-Semitism and anti-Israel bigotry,” Negrea said. “The United States will not stand by or provide diplomatic cover for an international framework rooted in institutional prejudice.”During the July hearing, a resolution on the commemoration passed by a vote of 142 countries in favor, three against, and 13 abstentions. Those voting against were the US, Israel and Argentina.The UN previously commemorated the Durban conference in 2009, 2011 and 2021. During the 20th anniversary event in 2021, 38 countries boycotted.
State Dept: This is a consequence of their failure to reform-US rejects Abbas’s entry visa, forcing him to again address UN virtually Palestinian official tells ToI that State Department notice on rejection of his request for a visa cites alleged association with a terror group, but doesn’t elaborate further BY Jacob Magid Today, 2:09 am-SEP 17,26
For the second year in a row, the United States has denied Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas’s application for an entry visa to speak next week at the UN General Assembly, US and Palestinian officials told The Times of Israel.Abbas’s office was notified of the decision on Wednesday, with similar rejections issued to dozens of other PA officials who were hoping to travel with him, a Palestinian official said.A second Palestinian official shared the notice he received from the US State Department, which cited the reason for the rejection as “Section 212(a)(3)(B), which prohibits the issuance of a visa to a person who at any time engaged in terrorist activities or was associated with a terrorist organization. This is a permanent ineligibility.”It was not immediately clear if Abbas’s visa was rejected on the same grounds.In a Wednesday statement explaining the ban, the State Department said the PA violated US legislation that penalizes Ramallah if it targets Israel in international organizations, advances the unilateral recognition of a Palestinian state, pays stipends to terrorists or glorifies violence.“As a consequence of their failure to reform, contrary to their commitments to the United States, and their ongoing activities that undermine the prospects for peace, the United States will extend sanctions that deny visas to PLO members and PA officials,” the State Department said.The statement notes that the administration will maintain a waiver allowing members of the Palestinian Mission to the UN to continue operating from New York.In light of the ban, the Palestinian Mission to the UN submitted a resolution to allow Abbas to address the body virtually as he did last year, according to a Western diplomat, which will be brought before the General Assembly on Thursday. Abbas is slotted to speak on September 24 — the same day as Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.US President Donald Trump’s administration took the same decision last year in what was seen as part of an effort to undermine a conference that France and Saudi Arabia were hosting ahead of the General Assembly’s main week that was aimed at promoting a two-state solution to the Israel-Palestinian conflict.No such meeting is being held this year, and Ramallah was hoping that Washington would ease its stance on the matter.But last month, a US official told The Times of Israel that the administration planned to keep the ban on PA officials in place.Abbas’s office still submitted entry requests earlier this month to attend the UN General Assembly, as Ramallah was informed by Washington that it would not be barred from at least applying, a PA official said.But Washington’s position did not end up changing, as it continues to maintain a frosty relationship with the PA.A PA official told The Times of Israel that US Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee rejected requests from Ramallah to join him during a visit he made to the central West Bank village of Turmus Ayya earlier this month.A source at the US embassy denied that such a request was made, explaining that Huckabee visited in a private capacity to meet with Palestinian-American citizens impacted by settler violence.A Turmus Ayya resident, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the visit was a positive development because it helped raise awareness about the phenomenon of rampant, unchecked settler violence.However, he said Huckabee’s comments characterizing the perpetrators as a fringe and unrepresentative minority did not play well in the village, where most believe that the settler violence is part of a systemic effort by the government to force Palestinians off their land.Last month, a senior PA official expressed “concern” to The Times of Israel that the US was “replicating” what he said has been Netanyahu’s strategy of bolstering Hamas at the expense of the PA.The alarm was raised two days after US envoy Jared Kushner held a rare in-person meeting with Hamas chief Khalil al-Hayya in Egypt, before proceeding to Jerusalem for a sit-down with Netanyahu. Kushner did not stop in Ramallah to see anyone from the PA, which the Trump administration has largely sidelined.“The PA can play a critical role in stabilizing the situation in Gaza and the West Bank and should not be ignored,” the Palestinian official said, speaking on condition of anonymity.The official recalled how successive Netanyahu governments authorized Qatari payments to Hamas, which bolstered the terror group at the very time the PA was working to weaken its grip on Gaza, even as Jerusalem gradually disengaged from the more moderate PA and took steps to delegitimize it.Through its Board of Peace, the US has established a new Palestinian technocratic committee that is slated to temporarily replace Hamas in governing Gaza until the PA has implemented a series of reforms.The PA official was careful not to explicitly criticize the Trump administration, with Ramallah apparently recognizing it has limited leverage at the moment.In a Fox News interview last month, Kushner was asked about the possibility of the US recognizing a Palestinian state. He dismissed the idea for the time being while knocking the PA.“Before we can even talk about the political nature of a state, what we want to see is that the Palestinians can govern themselves. With the PA, they fall very, very short on the standard we need for somebody who can qualify for a state,” he said. “They have a lot of reforms they need to do, which the Saudis, the French and everyone agrees with us on. Governments are working on what the right set of reforms are.”The Palestinian official insisted that Ramallah was working on implementing such reforms, but is significantly hobbled by a growing list of punitive measures taken by Netanyahu’s government that have brought the West Bank economy to the brink of collapse.
IDF chief: Lebanese army must boost effort against Hezbollah-Lebanese and Israeli envoys hold ‘positive’ meeting in DC as Aoun arrives in Paris
Meeting comes after planned peace talks in Rome delayed until next month; Lebanese president to discuss ongoing IDF strikes, talks with Israel with Macron during visit By Lazar Berman, Emanuel Fabian, AFP and ToI Staff 16 September 2026, 9:46 pm
Israeli Ambassador to Washington Yechiel Leiter met with his Lebanese counterpart, Nada Hamadeh Moawad, in Washington on Tuesday night, an Israeli official told The Times of Israel, after a round of peace talks between the two countries was postponed.The meeting in Washington was a “positive” one, the official said on Wednesday. “They agreed to meet again in October to continue negotiations.”The meeting at the State Department was a more limited affair than the recent expanded rounds of US-mediated talks, which are next expected to take place in Rome. The expanded talks that had been scheduled for this week were pushed off due to scheduling conflicts, an Israeli official said.However, the postponement suggested slowing momentum ahead of Israel’s October 27 election. The talks have also been hampered by the Hezbollah terror group’s refusal to comply with the Israeli-Lebanese framework deal reached in June.The deal said that the Israel Defense Forces will withdraw from areas of south Lebanon it held in parallel with the deployment of the Lebanese army, starting with so-called pilot zones, under the condition that Hezbollah disarms. But the Iran-backed group has refused to do so.The postponement came after a Lebanese official told The Times of Israel last week that “indiscriminate” IDF strikes in southern Lebanon were undermining Beirut’s efforts to disarm Hezbollah, while Jerusalem argued that the Lebanese Armed Forces are not yet up for the task, an assessment IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir echoed on Wednesday.Israel says its strikes target Hezbollah members and infrastructure, including weapons depots intended for attacks on Israel.Lebanese President Joseph Aoun, ahead of a trip to France, said on Wednesday that he wants a security agreement with Israel once it withdraws from southern Lebanon “primarily to end the state of hostility and the deployment of the army on the border. This could be a prelude to a later peace agreement, but we cannot jump directly to a peace agreement.”Upon arriving in Paris ahead of his meeting with French President Emmanuel Macron, Aoun said that he would discuss with his host “ongoing Israeli attacks” in southern Lebanon, the future of UNIFIL, and direct negotiations with Israel.In Paris, Aoun will attend a meeting with Macron and King Abdullah II of Jordan meant to build international support for Lebanese troops as they deploy further across their country.Zamir calls on Lebanese army to ‘improve its effectiveness’
Meanwhile, Zamir said on Wednesday the Lebanese army needs to step up its efforts against Hezbollah.During a visit to the northern border on Wednesday, Zamir told officers that “the IDF is determined to demilitarize the area south of the Litani [River] of Hezbollah’s presence, alongside advancing the ongoing overarching objective of disarming the terror organization.”“This objective cannot be advanced within a desired agreement with the Lebanese government as long as the Lebanese army does not significantly improve its effectiveness on the ground,” he said, according to remarks published by the IDF.Zamir said the IDF “will not allow Hezbollah to rebuild its strength, restore its capabilities, or reestablish terror infrastructure in the area.”Jerusalem has generally defended the destruction in parts of southern Lebanon by arguing that Hezbollah has riddled many of the Lebanese villages along Israel’s northern border with tunnels and other terror infrastructure.But comments from Defense Minister Israel Katz boasting about destroying dozens of villages, and pledging to remain in the buffer zone held by Israel in southern Lebanon indefinitely, have given additional ammunition to critics of the Lebanese government’s engagement with Israel, who claim that Jerusalem has territorial ambitions in the country. Israel has denied wanting to annex parts of Lebanon.US envoy visits Lebanese-controlled pilot zone-Additionally, the US ambassador to Lebanon visited the country’s south on Tuesday, his embassy said, where he went to a village that recently came under the control of the Lebanese army as part of the pilot zones.An AFP correspondent saw a convoy carrying the US envoy, Michel Issa, entering the village of Zawtar al-Gharbiya, where he visited a church, according to Lebanon’s official National News Agency.U.S. Ambassador Michel Issa visited southern Lebanon today to assess conditions on the ground and see firsthand the progress and challenges in the pilot zones.The US embassy said that Issa “visited southern Lebanon today to assess conditions on the ground and see firsthand the progress and challenges in the pilot zones.”It quoted him saying that his visit to the south allowed him “to witness firsthand the challenges facing its communities.”“I deeply sympathize with residents who have endured displacement and uncertainty, and I understand their urgent desire to return home and rebuild their lives in safety and dignity,” he said.The NNA said an Israeli drone surveyed the area during the visit and reported Israeli military vehicle movements in the neighboring town.Hezbollah again drew Lebanon into the broader Middle East conflict in March by launching rockets and drones at Israel in support of its sponsor Iran, which had come under attack by a US-Israeli air campaign days earlier. Israel responded to the Hezbollah attacks with a heavy air campaign and ground invasion.Fighting has persisted despite a ceasefire declared in Lebanon in April, but at a reduced rate. Israeli forces continue to operate inside a buffer zone that runs around 10 kilometers (six miles) deep inside Lebanese territory along the border.Israel pulled forces out of three pilot zones into which the Lebanese army entered, but has said it will not carry out any further withdrawals before Hezbollah is disarmed.On Thursday, the IDF said it had demolished a “strategic” underground facility belonging to Hezbollah beneath a mountainous ridge in southern Lebanon.The Ali Taher Ridge is located within Israel’s buffer zone, near Nabatieh. According to the IDF, the tunnel systems under Ali Taher served as the “nerve center” of the terror group’s Badr regional division — a unit tasked with the area of southern Lebanon that is north of the Litani River
