Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) unveiled one of its underground “missile cities” to state media on Wednesday, further inflaming tensions with the West over its nuclear ambitions and expanding missile capabilities. The unveiling, broadcast across Iranian media, featured an unmistakable symbol of Tehran’s hostility toward Israel—an Israeli flag placed on the ground for officials and personnel to trample, a deliberate act of provocation against the Jewish state. Leading the grand display were Iran’s top military brass, including Chief of Staff of the Armed Forces Mohammad Bagheri and IRGC Aerospace Force Commander Amir Ali Hajizadeh.

In yet another politically tainted move, Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara and State Attorney Amit Isman on Wednesday approved a police probe into three right-wing government members, Likud MK Nissim Vaturi, Heritage Minister Amichai Eliyahu (Otzma Yehudit), and Otzma Yehudit MK Tzvi Sukkot, regarding their break-in into the Sde Teiman base eight months ago. On July 29, 2024, masked military police raided the Sdei Teiman base and arrested nine reservists for the alleged abuse of a Nukhba terrorist.

Argentina’s government has announced the full declassification of all state-held files on Nazi fugitives who sought refuge in the country following World War II. The decision, confirmed by Cabinet Chief Guillermo Francos, comes under the direct orders of President Javier Milei, signaling a long-overdue reckoning with one of Argentina’s darkest chapters. “These are historical records that must be available to the public,” Francos declared, confirming that the archives will include classified government records, banking transactions, and Defense Ministry documents.

Huckabee, a longtime supporter of Israel’s right to defend itself and expand its territorial claims, showcased his deep personal connection to the Jewish state, recalling his first visit as a teenager and the countless trips he has led over the years.

In the wake of the terror attack in northern Israel on Monday in which an Israeli Arab murdered Moshe Horn, H’yd, 85, and seriously injured an IDF soldier, the Hakol HaYehudi media outlet examined the data to find out how many terror attacks have been perpetrated by Arab-Israelis since the October 7 massacre. The data showed that nine people were murdered by Arab-Israelis since October 7, 2023, [plus one Israeli murdered by a mentally ill Druze man], only two less than the number of people murdered by Palestinian Authority terrorists. It should be noted that there were many more Israeli-Arabs who planned to murder Jews but b’Chasdei Hashem, their plots were thwarted by Israeli security services.

A furor arose in the Knesset this week after MK Ahmad Tibi published a video on social media showing him using utensils from the Knesset cafeteria to eat a non-kosher meal before beginning his Ramadan fast, Arutz Sheva reported. When Arutz Sheva first published the story, it sparked fierce reactions from Knesset members and public figures, who were furious about the violation of kashrus standards at a national institution. The B’Tzalmo organization wrote a letter to the Knesset’s Ethics Committee demanding that severe sanctions be imposed on Tibi. “This is an irresponsible and unprecedented act,” the letter stated. “Clear steps must be taken to prevent similar cases from recurring.” The Knesset Rabbi’s office stated that the matter is currently under investigation.
