President Donald Trump addressed the recent hostilities between Israel and Iran and commented on the U.S. military response during his appearance at the NATO summit in the Netherlands.
“Last weekend, the United States successfully carried out a massive precision strike on Iran’s nuclear enrichment facilities,” Trump stated. “This incredible exercise of American strength has paved the way for peace, with a historic ceasefire agreement.”
When asked what gave him confidence that the fighting between the two nations had ended, Trump replied: “I dealt with both and they’re both tiered and exhausted. They fought very hard and viciously. They were both satisfied to go home and get out.”

New information has emerged from the ongoing investigation into the deadly incident in Khan Yunis, where one officer and six soldiers from the 605th Combat Engineering Battalion, part of the 188th Brigade, lost their lives. Military correspondent Doron Kadosh reported Wednesday evening on preliminary findings, which indicate that the blast was caused not by an explosive affixed to the Puma armored personnel carrier (APC), but by one hurled into it by a terrorist.

President Trump announced on Wednesday that American representatives are preparing to hold discussions with Iranian officials in the coming days, following the recent US bombing campaign which he claimed buried Iran’s enriched uranium deep beneath layers of rubble.
“We’re going to talk to them next week, with Iran. We may sign an agreement. I don’t know,” Trump stated during a press conference held after the NATO summit concluded in The Hague.
He did not disclose the location of the meeting or identify who would represent the United States in the talks. The announcement came on the heels of Trump brokering a cease-fire earlier in the week between Iran and Israel, putting an end to what he termed the “12-Day War.”

Just hours after a powerful tefillah gathering in the Ramat Elchanan neighborhood of Bnei Brak, news broke of a ceasefire between Israel and Iran. The timing did not go unnoticed by Rav Yitzchok Zilberstein, who led the atzeres tefillah, nd whose moving reaction captured the emotion felt by many.
“This is a day of transformation,” Rav Zilberstein said on Tuesday, following the bris of his great-grandson, a grandson of his son-in-law Rav Yosef Tzikinovsky. “Such miracles that HaKadosh Baruch Hu is performing with us—it’s beyond words. All the nations are against us, and Am Yisroel rises like a lion. We ask no questions, we march forward like a lion—undaunted and unafraid.”

During a contentious appearance before the House Energy and Commerce Committee on Tuesday, Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. found himself in a heated exchange with Rep. Frank Pallone (D-NJ), who accused the Trump administration official of endangering lives and promoting anti-scientific views, all while ignoring public accountability.

Speaking from the NATO summit in the Netherlands on Wednesday, President Trump disclosed that Israeli operatives had been dispatched to assess the damage at the Iranian nuclear sites hit in the recent U.S. airstrikes. According to Trump, those operatives confirmed that the facilities were completely destroyed. He also maintained that the operation had been executed so swiftly that Iran had no time to extract any enriched uranium.

NEW YORK — Declaring “Tonight, we made history,” 33-year-old Democratic Socialist Zohran Mamdani claimed victory Tuesday night in the city’s hotly contested Democratic mayoral primary, becoming the presumptive nominee and front-runner to be New York City’s first Muslim mayor.
With 93% of the ballots tallied, Mamdani led the pack with 43.5% of the vote, pulling ahead of former Governor Andrew Cuomo, who had been widely considered the frontrunner until recent weeks. Cuomo conceded after trailing at 36.4%, acknowledging the insurgent candidate’s unexpected surge.
“I will be your Democratic nominee for the mayor of New York City,” Mamdani told a jubilant crowd of supporters.
