More than 50 nations affected by President Donald Trump’s new tariff policy have approached the administration to initiate trade discussions, according to senior officials speaking on Sunday. The wide-reaching import taxes, which have unsettled global markets and sparked fears of economic downturn, are scheduled to take effect this Wednesday, ushering in a period of unpredictability in international trade.

On Sunday night, Israeli Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu held a phone call with Defense Minister Yisroel Katz from the Wing of Zion aircraft, during which he was briefed on the rocket attacks launched from Gaza.
In a statement released by the Prime Minister’s Office, it was noted, “The Prime Minister instructed that a vigorous response be carried out and approved the continuation of the intensive IDF activity in the Strip against Hamas.”
Later, Defense Minister Katz addressed the escalation involving rockets fired toward the Ashkelon region.

A poignant ceremony took place on Sunday in Plainview, Long Island, as a section of Manetto Hill Road was officially renamed in honor of the late Captain Omer Neutra. An American-Israeli IDF soldier whose body remains in the hands of Hamas, Omer was remembered through the dedication of the newly named “Captain Omer Neutra’s Way.”
After the street was renamed, Omer’s family recorded a heartfelt video message ahead of an upcoming meeting between President Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Standing in solidarity with them were Adi and Yael Alexander, the parents of Edan Alexander, another American-Israeli soldier.

Armed settlers stormed the Palestinian village of Tuba in the South Chevron Hills area of the West Bank in what appeared to be a calculated attempt to pressure local residents to abandon their homes and land, according to village witnesses.
Residents said that although police were called to the area, they only arrived after the settlers had already departed.
According to Beyond the Herd, an Israeli activist group that supports Palestinians in the South Chevron Hills, the incursion was intended to incite local Palestinians into reacting violently, thereby giving settlers a “pretext” for further aggression. The group said such provocations are a common tactic used by extremists in the area.

A dramatic surge in iPhone prices may be on the horizon for American consumers, with some models potentially hitting $2,300, as a result of steep new tariffs unveiled by President Trump targeting imports from China and other major trade partners, industry experts caution.
The production cost for the iPhone 16 Pro with 256GB of storage is expected to leap from $550 to $820, TechInsights analyst Wayne Lam revealed to The Wall Street Journal.
That dramatic rise stems from a 54% tariff imposed on Chinese imports — a significant blow to Apple, which relies on China for assembling most of its devices, though components are sourced globally.

Shortly after Israeli Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu arrived in Hungary last week, officials from the International Criminal Court submitted a formal request to the Hungarian authorities, urging them to hand him over.
According to a report from Channel 12, the ICC’s appeal included a call for Netanyahu’s temporary detention in accordance with the Rome Statute, the treaty that governs the court. The request cited several controversial allegations, among them: “use of starvation as a weapon of war,” “crimes against humanity,” and “attacking civilian areas.”
The court insisted that the request remain strictly confidential in order to preserve the integrity of the judicial process leading up to a possible arrest.

A 13-year-old child suddenly lost consciousness on Sunday while on the pedestrian bridge located on Route 4, directly across from Bar Ilan University. The incident occurred near a demonstration held by the Peleg Yerushalmi faction.
Emergency responders from Magen David Adom rushed to the location, provided immediate medical attention, and transported the boy in critical condition to Schneider Children’s Medical Center in Petach Tikva.
Upon arrival at the hospital, medical staff did all they could to stabilize him. Despite prolonged efforts, they were ultimately forced to pronounce him dead.

The Academy of the Hebrew Languages has announced that it has changed the Hebrew name of the spotted orange butterfly in honor of murdered Israeli hostage Ariel Bibas, 4.
The name was changed from Kitmit Yerushalayim (Orange Yerushalayim) to Kitmit Ariel (Orange Ariel) in memory of Ariel, who was killed by Palestinian terrorists along with his mother and nine-month old brother shortly after the family was abducted from their homes in southern Israel during the Hamas-led massacre on Oct. 7, 2023.
The Hebrew word Ariel is one of the 70 names of Yerushalayim.

A barrage of ten rockets was fired from the Gaza Strip on Sunday night, triggering warning sirens across Ashkelon, Ashdod, and nearby towns.
The attack was claimed by Hamas, which said the rockets were launched from Deir al-Balah, a central Gaza location where Israeli forces have not yet conducted operations.
According to the IDF, “Following the sirens that sounded at 21:01-21:02 in the Lakhish area, approximately ten projectiles were identified crossing into Israeli territory from the Gaza Strip. Most of them were successfully intercepted. The details are under review.”
