Former White House physician Dr. Kevin O’Connor is expected to face tough questioning from House Republicans over his alleged role in concealing President Joe Biden’s cognitive issues, Rep. Ronny Jackson (R-Texas) told The New York Post.

He is a massive, massive part,” said Jackson, a medical doctor who previously worked in the White House Medical Unit under three presidents and now chairs the Oversight and Investigations subcommittee of the House Intelligence Committee.

Russia launched a deadly missile assault on Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s hometown of Kryvyi Rih late today, killing at least 19 people, including nine children. It was one of the most devastating strikes on the city since the war began.
The missile attack obliterated part of a residential district in Kryvyi Rih, injuring at least 72 more people, among them a 3-month-old infant, according to Ukrainian officials.
“There were dead children lying there, crying parents — it was horrible,” a 47-year-old woman named Yulia told Reuters.
Zelensky paid tribute to the youngest victims in an emotional post on Saturday.

President Donald Trump weighed in on the news that Marine Le Pen, leader of France’s National Rally Party, has been barred from holding public office for five years following a conviction for embezzlement, calling the situation a “very big deal” and drawing parallels to what he sees happening in the United States.
“A lot of people thought she wasn’t going to be convicted of anything,” Trump told reporters Monday, according to The Hill. “I don’t know if it means conviction, but she was banned for running for five years, and she was the leading candidate. That sounds like this country, it sounds very much like this country.”

Rabbi Shlomo Aviner, accompanied by his aide Rabbi Mordechai Tzion, traveled on Monday to Tel Kudna, located within Syrian territory.
“The goal of the special visit to our holy soldiers at Tel Kudna in Syria was to strengthen their fighting spirits as reservists of the Military Rabbinate,” Rabbi Tzion explained to Arutz Sheva.
Rabbi Tzion shared the inspirational message Rabbi Aviner conveyed during the visit: “The rabbi said that it is not clear from the Torah that the location we were in is considered ‘Syria,’ but it is probably the land of Israel.

President Donald Trump stated that Yemen’s Houthi rebels are now seeking peace after enduring more than a week of US airstrikes, which he described as “very, very strong.”
“The Houthis are looking to do something. They want to know, ‘How do we stop? How do we stop? How can we have peace?’ The Houthis want peace because they’re getting the hell knocked out of them,” Trump shared with reporters in the Oval Office.
“The Houthis are dying for peace. They don’t want this… They were knocking ships out of the ocean…. In the Suez Canal, they only have about 20% of the ships going through. They have to go through a different way, which takes weeks of travel, and that really affects commerce.”

Yitzchok Goldknopf, the head of the United Torah Judaism party, formally resigned from his role as a minister in the Prime Minister’s Office, citing the government’s failure to make progress on a bill that would exempt yeshiva students from mandatory military service.
This resignation is more symbolic than substantive, as Goldknopf retains his position as the minister for housing and construction, ensuring his continued presence in Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu’s cabinet.

On Friday afternoon, Israel’s Supreme Court announced that it would temporarily halt the government’s decision to end Ronen Bar’s tenure as the head of the ISA, pending a hearing on the issue.
This decision came after opposition parties in the Knesset filed an appeal earlier in the day, urging the court to block Bar’s dismissal.
“We hereby issue a temporary order suspending the validity of the decision until the provision of a different decision,” the ruling read.
With this order, the Supreme Court is effectively preventing Bar’s removal from office until a judge can make a final determination. A date for the hearing has not yet been set, but it is expected to take place before Bar’s dismissal becomes official.

There was a palpable sense of excitement in the halls of Torah learning with the announcement of the release of Rav Moshe Hillel Hirsch from the hospital after several days of hospitalization. The Rosh Yeshiva, who returned to his home last week, delivered a brief but impactful drasha at the Yeshiva of Slabodka in which he illuminated the reasons for the recent decrees that have befallen the Torah community.
In his shmuess, Rav Hirsch began with a poignant observation: “In truth, Hashem is punishing us severely, with a direct punishment on bnei Torah, who are deprived of the opportunity to learn. This is a punishment of reduced learning. It’s Hashem!” he stated.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky conveyed that his country remains committed to an agreement with the United States regarding the shared rights to its mineral resources. This came after Zelensky’s departure from the White House without finalizing the deal, following a tense confrontation with President Trump in the Oval Office last Friday. Trump had insisted on a portion of Ukraine’s abundant mineral deposits as compensation for the substantial military and civilian aid — totaling over $175 billion — that the United States has provided since Russia’s invasion in 2022.
