Family and friends gathered at the Beit Dagan cemetery to bid farewell to Major Yuval Ezra, who was killed in a shooting attack in Samaria. His mother, fiancée, and battalion commander paid tribute to his character, leadership, and heroism.

Following the terror attack that claimed the lives of Binyahu Malet and Major Yuval Ezra, a series of retaliatory acts were reported in Palestinian villages. The IDF mapped the terrorists' homes in the village of Tell and distributed leaflets warning against further incitement.

US President Donald Trump has set aside plans for extensive bombings against military and nuclear sites in Iran. Military advisors warned that escalation could dangerously deplete the stockpile of Patriot interceptors in the Middle East.

A drone discovered near the National Security Minister's home in Kiryat Arba contained no explosives. The IDF has recovered the device, and no injuries were reported.

Following the killing of Major Yuval Ezra and Binyahu Malet in a terror attack, which led to the shooting death of the terrorist and other Palestinians, tensions in Judea and Samaria have reached a breaking point. Residents of the settlements blame the authorities for inaction, while Palestinian representatives claim their reaction is a result of justified anger.

Israel braced for escalation between Friday and Saturday, but the US and Iran held their fire. Meanwhile, ICC prosecutor Karim Khan was dismissed, and security measures were tightened in Judea and Samaria following recent attacks.

A confrontation developed between an Israeli citizen and a Palestinian near a farm in the Susiya area, during which the latter snatched a weapon, fired into the air, and fled to a nearby village.

Major Yuval Ezra was already at home and his mother was preparing his favorite dish: kubbeh. But he was called back due to the tension in the West Bank, arrived to handle a confrontation between Palestinians and Israelis — and was shot to death by a terrorist. "We have been receiving hundreds of messages from his soldiers since," his family members share in pain. "We will bury our hero son, sit...

About 20 settlers entered the village of Tel, where Major Yuval Ezra and Binyamin Malet were killed yesterday in a confrontation with Palestinians. No unusual incidents have been reported, and IDF forces are on their way to evacuate them.

In Jerusalem, it was estimated that Donald Trump would carry out the strike against Iran on the night between Friday and Saturday, but as the hours passed, it became clear that he was giving Tehran another chance. The assessment in Israel has not changed: the memorandum of understanding between Iran and the USA is dead, and the chance for a permanent agreement is zero.

Parallel to the escalation with Iran, concern about an outbreak is growing on the Yemen front: Reuters reported that the Houthis and Yemeni government forces are reinforcing their positions. Riyadh, losing patience, has begun striking back. Notably, missiles fired at the port of Yanbu were intercepted by a Greek Patriot battery team stationed in the kingdom.

Immediately after October 7, a specialized unit was established within the Shin Bet with a clear objective: to eliminate all terrorists who invaded the Gaza envelope, committed atrocities, and held hostages. The operation continues, and security officials affirm: "We will settle the score with everyone."

Amid ambiguity surrounding the use of the old Air Force One to bring Donald Trump back from the NATO summit in Turkey, The New York Times reported that the decision stemmed from a "credible threat from Iranian proxy forces" to the life of the US President. The Times noted that this threat is distinct from the one previously warned about by Israeli intelligence.

Saudi Arabia reported an attack on a vessel flying the kingdom's flag in the Red Sea. Shortly after, Riyadh launched strikes on the port city of Hodeidah, with reports of explosions in weapons depots. The Houthis threatened a harsh response, stating: 'Any escalation will be met with a harsher escalation.'

According to The New York Times, US intelligence assesses that Iranian Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei, unlike his father, is interested in developing a nuclear warhead for long-range missiles. Fearing a commando operation at the fortified 'Mount of Sorcery' facility, Iran has deployed ground forces to the site.

This is the true test of the agreement: not only whether Hezbollah will be disarmed, but who will fill the void that will be created. Sovereignty does not boil down to waving a flag, deploying soldiers, or words written on a page. The state must provide a roof for the displaced, compensate the families, and establish a dedicated reconstruction authority that will handle the rebuilding of the...
