Two nurses from Australia who openly stated they would not treat Israelis have now been barred from working with individuals supported by the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) for the next two years, according to a report by Jewish News on Tuesday. This move comes after the pair had already been suspended from their roles at Bankstown Hospital in Sydney.
Ahmad Rashad Nadir and Sarah Abu Lebdeh were filmed in a February conversation with TikTok user Max Veifer, during which they remarked that Israelis should be “sent to hell.”

Israeli Minister for Social Equality and the Advancement of Women, May Golan, appeared in a heated exchange with British broadcaster Piers Morgan on Tuesday, strongly defending both her country’s military efforts in Gaza and her own widely debated past statements.
Addressing the issue of how Palestinian children are raised, Golan accused Gaza’s society of inciting hatred from an early age. “The fact is that we have children in Gaza today that are being raised on Mein Kampf. They are being raised [to kill] Jews from the second they are born. This is what they say. And you know what? If you don’t believe me, you can talk with the hostages that came back from captivity,” she said.

It didn’t take long for the Democratic Party’s media cheering section to demonstrate how far the Overton Window had moved among liberals with respect to antisemitism. Centrist Democrats and the liberal Jewish establishment were genuinely shocked by Zohran Mamdani’s victory in last week’s Democratic Party mayoral primary in New York City. Within days, however, it was clear that legacy outlets reflecting mainstream opinion on the political left weren’t going to tolerate much in the way of criticism of his extremist views about Israel and the Jews.

In a significant legal breakthrough following years of courtroom battles, families of those who perished in the Meron tragedy are set to receive major financial compensation from the Israeli government and responsible entities, including the National Center for the Development of Holy Places and various insurance companies.
The development comes as part of an agreement formulated with the involvement of attorney Eran Becker, of the Eran Becker & Co. law firm, who represents several bereaved families. The deal has been endorsed by the Lod District Court under Judge Irit Cohen, and will soon be submitted for court approval with the consent of the families and the State Attorney’s Office.

The Mossad escalated its digital offensive against Iran on Tuesday, leveraging a report from Tasnim News Agency that the regime had decided to keep the identity of its new Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters commander under wraps. The Israeli intelligence agency took to its Persian-language X account to post: “We know exactly who he is and know him well. Unfortunately, such basic information is hidden from the Iranian people. Please send us your guesses about his name.”
This post was Mossad’s second prominent message of the day and followed closely on the heels of Tasnim’s announcement that the Iranian government would not release the commander’s name “for his protection,” referencing the recent assassinations of his two predecessors in airstrikes attributed to Israel.

President Donald Trump sparked controversy after threatening legal action against Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani during remarks made in Florida, drawing a sharp rebuke from New York Governor Kathy Hochul. “He’s picking a fight with 20 million New Yorkers,” Hochul warned, in response to Trump’s remarks regarding Mamdani’s stance on immigration enforcement.
While speaking to reporters, Trump was asked about Mamdani’s pledge to block ICE agents who conceal their identities while conducting deportations. Trump replied, “Well then, we’ll have to arrest him.”

President Donald Trump on Tuesday toured a newly constructed immigration detention facility in the heart of the Florida Everglades, promoting it as a prototype for how states can scale up enforcement and deportation efforts. Republican leaders praised the site as a bold step in supporting Trump’s sweeping immigration crackdown.

Lebanese authorities have intercepted a staggering $8.2 million in cash at Beirut International Airport over the past week, according to a report in the Asharq Al-Awsat newspaper citing a judicial source. The money was found stashed in the luggage of three passengers: two had arrived from Kinshasa, the capital of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, via Ethiopia, while the third had flown in from Istanbul.

Yisrael Beytenu leader Avigdor Lieberman delivered a stark message to the Knesset on Monday, cautioning that Israel has no more than three years before another, more severe confrontation with Iran is likely. He pressed the government to overhaul the national budget and mandate that defense expenditures be set at 8 percent of the country’s GDP.
Addressing lawmakers from the Knesset podium and later at his party’s weekly meeting, the former defense minister asserted that Iran is actively seeking retaliation for the recent direct conflict with Israel and is already making headway in restoring its nuclear capabilities. “These are not theoretical threats,” he said. “The next stage will be more complex and more difficult.”

President Trump announced on Tuesday that Israel has consented to the terms required to move forward with a proposed 60-day cease-fire agreement with Hamas.
“My Representatives had a long and productive meeting with the Israelis today on Gaza. Israel has agreed to the necessary conditions to finalize the 60 Day CEASEFIRE, during which time we will work with all parties to end the War,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.
