One month into Hamas’ terror war against Israel, and Israel’s counter-terror response, female students in Ramallah in the West Bank were eager to show their support for Hamas and for Hamas’ massacre of Jews on Oct. 7.
Waving Palestinian flags and a green Hamas flag, the students enthusiastically called to “shoot a Jew,” while declaring that “the entire West Bank is Hamas!” [emphasis added]
They also voiced criticism of Palestinian Authority (PA) leader Mahmoud Abbas, asking rhetorically “Abbas, where are you?” and then continued mocking him by saying that “Abu Ubeida,” the spokesman for the  Hamas’ military wing, “is poking you in the eye”:

The special counsel probing the alleged mishandling of classified documents by President  Joe Biden and his staff is not expected to bring charges against him, CNN reported, citing two sources.
In January, Special Counsel Robert Hur was appointed to investigate the discovery of classified documents dating back to Biden’s term as vice president at his home in Wilmington, Delaware, and the Penn Biden Center. The year-long investigation is expected to conclude before the end of the year, but an official timeline has yet to be announced.

In Judea and Samaria, IDF forces took action on Tuesday by demolishing a monument dedicated to the former PLO leader and notorious terrorist Yasser Arafat, situated in Tulkarm.
The decision to remove the monument was executed without providing a specific reason for the action.
Over a span of 15 hours, IDF forces conducted operations in Tulkarm, resulting in the elimination of seven terrorists. Throughout the mission, engineering units discovered numerous pre-planted charges under and along roads, designed to pose a threat to IDF soldiers. Additionally, the operation led to the arrest of a high-ranking terrorist, the commander of the ‘Tulkarm Battalion.’

The White House said on Tuesday that a “variety” of U.S. intelligence sources confirm Israeli claims that Hamas is using Al Shifa Hospital and other medical centers in the Gaza Strip to run its terror operations.
“We have information that Hamas and the Palestinian Islamic Jihad use some hospitals in the Gaza Strip, including Al Shifa, and tunnels underneath them to conceal and to support their military operations and to hold hostages,” U.S. National Security Council spokesman John Kirby told reporters aboard Air Force One, according to Reuters.
“That is a war crime,” said Kirby, adding that Washington does not support airstrikes against terror bases located in or under hospitals.

Last night, President Joe Biden emphasized the need for a “pause” in the Israel-Hamas conflict to facilitate the release of “prisoners.” Speaking at a campaign reception in Minnesota, Biden responded to a protester’s question by stating, “I think we need a pause.” When asked to clarify what a pause meant, he explained, “A pause means give time to get the prisoners out. Give time.”
Efforts to secure the release of 239 hostages, including children and the elderly, have been ongoing since the October 7 terrorist attack by Hamas, resulting in the loss of approximately 1,400 lives in Israel. Following Hamas’s breach of Israel’s border wall, other groups from Gaza also took additional captives.

Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas unveiled startling statistics during a national security hearing on Capitol Hill on Tuesday. He revealed that over 600,000 individuals entered the United States without encountering border agents during the 2023 fiscal year. Mayorkas emphasized that this challenge of “gotaways” has persisted at the border for many years.
Mayorkas acknowledged, “The phenomenon of gotaways is something that has been a challenge for the department of homeland security for decades.” He went on to underscore, “In fact, it is a powerful example of a broken immigration system.”
