Israel's journalists refuse to see that a country that has killed more newspeople in this war in Gaza than have been killed in any other conflict in history will one day also turn its guns on them
Despite a surge in vaccinations, measles cases continue to climb, with 503 confirmed infections and 12 unvaccinated children hospitalized. 'This death was entirely preventable,' said a Health Ministry official, warning that the real numbers may be far higher
As reported by the Guardian, London's IWM refuses to amend a caption on the Nazi race laws despite objections from a visitor and two top historians, who say it inaccurately links Jewish persecution to religious observance – not ancestry
Historic temperature records were set from Safed to the Jordan Valley, including Israel's warmest night ever, as the extreme heatwave peaked Wednesday. Relief is not expected before the weekend
Elad Or's brother, Dror, was killed on October 7, 2023, and his body was taken to Gaza. In his eyes, the Netanyahu government keeps proving they're not interested in returning the hostages, but only in endless war, saying that the 'revenge' being enacted on Gaza 'doesn't bring anyone back to life'
Netanyahu's government has long viewed Israel's courts, attorney general, and military leadership as enemies – and now it's escalating. As he pushes Gaza toward a 'forever war,' we can't forget about the internal war being waged on Israeli democracy
The main factor behind the sharp downturn is a sharp drop in aliyah from Russia, the main driver of immigration to Israel in recent years. Growing antisemitism is not driving Jews out of their countries, as Israeli immigration officials had predicted
Over the years, Netanyahu has followed a fairly transparent pattern: he advocates for extreme measures he doesn't believe in while leaving the actual restraint and execution to another actor, be it the IDF Chief of Staff or any relevant body, so that it bears the brunt of any backlash
The visit to the illegal Ma'aleh Tidhar outpost included a meeting with far-right activist Elisha Yered, who was suspected of involvement in the killing of a Palestinian teen, underscoring declining enforcement against nationalist crime and settler construction

International Rescue Committee's Bob Kitchen explains why Gaza is the 'most intense crisis' he's seen in 25 years of responding to humanitarian emergencies and how the IDF strangles aid efforts in the Strip
As a young teen, Rabbi Idit Mevorach Shaag went to Gush Katif in 2005 hoping to prevent the evacuation of the Jewish settlements in the Gaza Strip 'with my own two hands.' It was her military experience that put her on the path to becoming what she describes as a 'weird leftist'
Replacing the locks in the attorney general's office Monday night is a thuggish and insane move that testifies primarily to Levin's frustration. Unfortunately for him, there is a good chance that Baharav-Miara will remain steadfast while Levin and this government are chucked out by the voters
Attorneys have been barred from visiting Israeli prisons to meet with their Palestinian clients due to accusations of 'transmitting information,' and guards have demanded to read legal documents. During the war in Gaza, the Israel Prison Service has made the lawyers targets as it tries to keep what's happening at the prisons under wraps
Critics use the argument of performativity not as a call for more meaningful action, but as a way to delegitimize a cause – in this case, Palestinian national aspirations - and discourage others from following suit. For those of us who identify as Zionists, this is particularly shameful
Clashes broke out between Palestinians and settlers who arrived in the West Bank town of Duma to prepare the land ahead of the establishment of an outpost. Two Israelis, including an off-duty soldier who shot the Palestinian man, were wounded

The reported deal will allow a corridor for the transfer of aid from Israel to the Sweida region in Syria to improve the deteriorating humanitarian situation of the Druze minority, in a deal that may also improve chances of future normalization between Israel and Syria
The Israeli army will have to call up 100,000 reservists, who will be operating in a population of around 1.2 million Palestinians against well-prepared guerrilla fighters, amid a threat to the hostages and unclear legal authority for ordering civilians to once again move south
A UN report draft obtained by Haaretz acknowledges for the first time Hamas' sexual crimes committed against Israelis on October 7 and hostages held in captivity in the Gaza Strip. It also calls on Israel to hold suspects of sexual crimes against Palestinians accountable
The film 'The Road Between Us: The Ultimate Rescue,' about Noam Tibon, a retired Israeli general who rescued his family on October 7, won't be screened at the Toronto Int'l Film Festival after organizers requested filmmakers receive approval to use Hamas footage of the deadly attack
Media reports indicate that all seven members of the Abu Hanidek family were killed when their displaced-person tents in Gaza City were bombed. Media outlets also reported that four people were killed by IDF fire in central Gaza while waiting for aid trucks
