The IDF on Saturday night reported that Warrant Officer (res.) Yehezkel Azaria, age 53, fell during a military operation in northern Israel.

Azaria, who lived in Petah Tikva, served in the Armored Corps in Battalion 129 of Brigade 8, and fell during operational activities near Margaliot in northern Israel.

We bow our heads in respect for this hero who was killed defending the Jewish Homeland.

My deepest condolences to his family.

Prime minister Netanyahu at the press conference tonight:

"I'm proud that I prevented the establishment of a Palestinian state because today everybody understands what that Palestine state could have been, now that we’ve seen the little Palestinian state in Gaza.

Everyone understands what would have happened if we had capitulated to international pressures and enabled a state like that in Judea and Samaria, surrounding Jerusalem and on the outskirts of Tel Aviv
.”

Israel's army drops these leaflets in Kfar Shouba in southern Lebanon with this message:

"To the inhabitants of southern Lebanon,


It's important to bring to your attention that Hezbollah, identified as terrorists, are utilizing the chance to encroach upon your homes, your pristine territories, and areas around your places of work and living to plot against the State of Israel and to use your assets for their terrorist activities. For your own safety, it is imperative to halt these terrorist acts by remaining vigilant in the area.

The hidden presence of Hezbollah operatives within civilian locales presents a genuine threat, and it is this that poses harm to you."

American media reports that President Joe Biden is close to ordering a military operation against Houthi forces in Yemen.

The Houthi threat to international shipping in the Red Sea, which they claim is a war against the "Zionists," is beginning to have a negative impact on Western consumers.


But the Houthis are not an isolated force operating in a vacuum.

They are part of the Iranian octopus, whose tentacles reach throughout the Middle East.

An escalation of the conflict with the Houthis, necessary as it is, will likely result in escalations elsewhere.

Muslims are FURIOUS!! WHY?

The IDF posted a video of one of its highly-trained K9 unit operators sniffing out explosives and thus saving the lives of Israeli soldiers.

But that's not what got Palestinian Muslims angry.


The dog's name is Aisha. That's the name of the child bride of Islam's Prophet Mohammed.

Muslims consider dogs to be unclean animals, and it is therefore an insult to name them after important Islamic figures.

This is the photo that the Republican Senator, Dan Sullivan, took when he came to visit the Widener Library at Harvard University, the most important library in the university and one of the most famous in the USA - dozens of students wearing caps and signs against Israel.

"If students were to hand out flyers and hang large signs in the Widener Library reading room to condemn affirmative action or NCAA regulations allowing men to compete in women's swimming meets, Harvard leaders would shut them down at once. But an anti-Israel protest by an anti-Semitic group, which controls The entire reading room during final exams? No problem," Sullivan wrote in a column he published in the Wall Street Journal, in which he also described how two students called him a "murderer" when he opposed a ceasefire in the war.

While all eyes are on Gaza, the Palestinian cities in the West Bank are not less dangerous.

Military operations in some of those cities uncovered tunnels and allows the elimination of dozens of terrorists and capture of many guns and explosive devices.

ALL Palestinian population is poised to destroy Israel and “innocent civilians” are gladly serving as human shields to the terrorists that are from all sides of their political map.

People who choose death and no future!

So far today, the IDF announced the death of two soldiers

Master Sgt. (res.) Joseph Avner Doran, 26, of the combat mobility Unit 444 and served in the Navy's Shayetet 13

Sgt. First Class (res.) Shalev Zaltsman, 24, of the 55th Reserve Paratroopers Brigade's 6623rd Battalion.

This raises the official toll in the ground invasion of Gaza to 121 reported soldiers.

Current death toll now matches that of the Second Lebanon War.

A shocking interview on Channel 12 with Doron Katz Asher, who was kidnapped to Gaza with two of her young daughters by Hamas and was released.
Doron and her daughters, Raz (4) and Aviv (2), were abducted to Gaza on Oct 7, and Doron was shot in the back by Hamas.

1. They were held in an apartment, guarded round-the-clock by a Palestinian family. The Palestinian father spoke Hebrew and received a visa to work in Israel prior to October 7. The Palestinian girls of the family and the mother took part in guarding and forcing Doron and her daughters to remain in captivity.
Doron underwent a back surgery on a sofa without anesthesia, with her daughters beside her, crumbling in pain.
2. After 16 days they were dressed as Muslim women and were moved.

They were moved to a hospital (!!!). They met there other Israeli hostages. There were 10 Israelis in a small hospital room with no bathroom and no mattresses/beds.
One of Doron’s daughters had a fever for three days and she couldn’t do anything to help her.
3. As time passed and when they were allowed to go to the bathroom Doron says she saw more Israeli hostages in the hospital and they talked briefly.
4. When the ICRC came to take them and the hundreds of Palestinians came to see they were terrified they’ll be killed by them.
5. Doron’s daughter still speaks about evil men with knives coming to get her.

This is not the full account, but it just comes to show how much more will be revealed.
The crimes of Hamas, and yes some Palestinians in Gaza, are countless. This is why we keep fighting
