The United Nations is not bastion of Jew-loving. Far from it, in fact. And while the UN is constantly trying to make issues for Israel, sometimes its actions are so deranged that they deserve some sort of medal. And if there were medals, a UN team’s comments Wednesday would be deserving of one. After Khader Adnan, a Palestinian terrorist who called for Arabs to commit acts of violence against Jews, was arrested and subsequently died due to a voluntary hunger strike he chose to go on, the UN’s “Special Procedures” called for “accountability” over his death. “UN experts demand accountability for death of Palestinian hunger striker Khader Adnan & condemn Israel’s mass arbitrary detention of Palestinians as ‘cruel’ + ‘inhumane’.

A recent viral TikTok trend involving Fruit Roll-Ups has led to a sharp increase in the demand for the fruity snacks, especially in countries such as Israel, where they’re not so easy to obtain. The trend is simply placing a scoop of ice cream on an unwrapped Fruit Roll-Up, which immediately becomes hard and crunchy, and then wrapping it up and eating it. It may seem silly and banal that’s exactly what almost all TikTok trends are. Although Fruit Roll-Ups are sold in Israel, they’re available only in select stores and are costly. But the TikTok trend has now made them even more costly and difficult to obtain, with black-market prices at NIS 40 for just one roll-up, according to a Walla News report. US travelers are apparently trying to cash in on the trend.

About 200 special forces of the IDF, Yamam counterterrorism officers, and Shin Bet operatives entered the Old City of Shechem early Thursday morning and eliminated the two terrorists who murdered the members of the Dee family in a shooting attack in the Jordan Valley on Chol Hamoed Pesach. The two terrorists, both Hamas operatives, were killed together with a senior accomplice who was in the apartment with them. Undercover Israeli forces, some of them dressed as women, entered Shechem and were recognized by locals who opened fire on them. A fierce gun battle ensued. Meanwhile, special forces surrounded the terrorists’ hideout and used the “pressure cooker” method to flush them out of the building, firing shoulder-launched missiles and suicide drones at the building.

A 16-year-old teenager from Rechovot was hospitalized on Tuesday evening in the pediatric intensive care unit at Kaplan Medical Center after suffering respiratory failure due to smoking an e-cigarette. The incident comes less than three weeks after the death of Meidan (Mordechai) Baruch-Keller, z’l, 16, who was attached to an ECMO machine after suffering serious lung damage due to vaping. Fortunately, the current case is less serious than that of Meidan, z’l, and the teen does not need to be connected to an ECMO machine. A statement from the hospital said that “the teen is hospitalized with suspected EVALI (E-Cigarette or Vaping Use-Associated Lung Injury) which is still being tested. The teen said that he smoked e-cigarettes.

In a terrifying incident later described as “miraculous,” a police officer in the Washington, D.C., suburbs was lucky to escape with his life after an out-of-control vehicle came spinning towards him as he conducted an unrelated traffic stop. Footage of the incident, captured on the officer’s police cruiser camera, shows the officer going through his protocols after stopping a BMW that had been speeding on the Fairfax County Parkway. As he spoke to the driver from the passenger side, another BMW is seen careening towards him from across the median at a blistering 120 mph. The spinning BMW strikes the larger sedan and then spins into the police officer’s vehicle. The officer, caught in between, somehow manages to get out of the way without being clobbered.

Donald Trump still won’t stand for the mainstream media’s shenanigans, and his recently reported action aboard his plane shows it. According to reports, an NBC News reporter asked Trump about Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg’s probe into hush money payments he allegedly made in 2016 during a press gaggle aboard Trump’s private plane, Hair Force One. NBC News reporter Vaughn Hillyard told Trump that he seemed “frustrated” by the investigation. Trump fired right back, telling the left-leaning outlet’s reporter not to ask any more questions. “I’m not frustrated by anything,” Trump said. “What am I, frustrated? I just did a speech for two hours. I’m not frustrated by it. It’s a fake investigation. We did nothing wrong. I told you that. … It’s the exact opposite.

The House Ways and Means Committee on Wednesday issued a shocking subpoena to the Department of Justice on Wednesday: a demand for a specific file that a whistleblower claims shows incontrovertible evidence that Joe Biden was linked to a “criminal scheme” that involved “money for policy decisions.” “We have received legally protected and highly credible unclassified whistleblower disclosures,” Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer and Senate Budget Committee ranking member Chuck Grassley wrote to Attorney General Merrick Garland and FBI Director Christopher Wray.

Since Tucker Carlson’s firing from Fox News last week, there has been wild speculation over what could have prompted the network’s highest-rated anchor to get the boot. Now, the New York Times says it may know the answer, at least in part. The outlet released a text from Carlson that it said “set off a panic” in Fox News’ c-suites. “The discovery of the message contributed to a chain of events that ultimately led to Mr. Carlson’s firing,” the Times wrote. “In the message, sent to one of his producers in the hours after violent Trump supporters stormed the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, Mr.

Russian authorities accused Ukraine on Wednesday of attempting to attack the Kremlin with two drones overnight in an effort to assassinate President Vladimir Putin. The Kremlin decried the alleged attack attempt as a “terrorist act” and said Russian military and security forces stopped the drones before they could strike. In a statement carried by Russian state-run news agencies, it said no casualties took place. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told Russia’s state news agency RIA Novosti that Putin wasn’t in the Kremlin at the time and was working from the Novo-Ogaryovo residence. The Kremlin added that Putin was safe and his schedule was unchanged. There were no immediate comment from Ukrainian authorities.

After a tense night overnight Tuesday of continued rocket launches from Gaza and IDF retaliatory strikes, Arab media reports said that a ceasefire agreement between IDF and Gaza terror groups was reached at about 4 a.m. The ceasefire was mediated by Egyptian, Qatari and UN officials, according to a Reuters report. The IDF announced a return to the routine on the homefront early Wednesday morning, including the resumption of classroom studies in communities near the Gaza Strip. Over 100 rockets were launched at Israel from Gaza in the 24 hours before the ceasefire.  Dozens of rockets were launched at Sderot, Ashkelon and nearby areas overnight Tuesday, with one rocket exploding in the courtyard of a home in Ashkelon.
