Israeli security agencies are investigating three explosions that occurred in parked, empty busses across the central city of Bat Yam, located just south of Tel Aviv, as suspected terror attacks. There were no injuries as a result of the Thursday night blasts, the Israel Police stated. Danny Levy, the police commissioner, was on site where one of the explosions took place, per the police.
One bomb bore a note, in Arabic, that stated “revenge from the Tulkarem refugee camp,” a reference to the terrorist hotbed where security forces have been conducting operations, Channel 12 News reported.

Bat Yam, Israel (VINnews)— Israeli

In a heartfelt gesture, Speaker of the House Mike Johnson extended his congratulations to the Skverer Rebbe, Rav Dovid Twersky, on the occasion of his grandchild’s wedding. The letter, dated February 14, 2025, was personally delivered by Congressman Mike Lawler to the Rebbe in New Square, New York.
The letter reads as follows:
Congress of the United StatesHouse of RepresentativesWashington, DC 20515-6501
February 14, 2025
Grand Rabbi David TwerskyNew Square, New York
Dear Grand Rabbi Twersky,

Delta has confirmed that the airline is offering passengers aboard the plane that crash-landed at a Toronto airport $30,000, with no conditions attached, as part of the aftermath of the incident. This amount is six times higher than the immediate compensation provided to those on US Airways Flight 1549, famously known as the Miracle on the Hudson. Passengers who accept this offer still have the right to pursue legal action against Delta following the harrowing events at Pearson Toronto International Airport, where all 80 individuals aboard the flight survived the Monday afternoon crash.
The total amount Delta could potentially pay out to the 76 passengers on Flight 4819 might exceed $2.2 million in total.

Earlier this month, Ukrainian intelligence agents executed a clever scheme that echoed the tactics of Mossad, embedding explosive devices in Russian virtual reality goggles. The result: the devices detonated in the faces of Moscow’s drone operators, The NY Post reports.
“A series of explosions have been reported from goggles used by FPV drone pilots in Russian occupation forces,” a Ukrainian intelligence source told The Post on Thursday.
“Russian media outlets have reported dozens of similar incidents in various regions across the Russian Federation during the first days of February,” the source added.
The covert operation was carried out by Ukraine’s Main Intelligence Directorate.

Volker Türk, the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights, issued a stern condemnation on Thursday regarding the way Hamas transferred the bodies of deceased hostages to the Red Cross.
Türk labeled the act as disturbing and argued that it was in direct violation of international law. “Under international law, any handover of the remains of deceased must comply with the prohibition of cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment, ensuring respect for the dignity of the deceased and their families,” the UN rights official said in his statement.
During the handover, Red Cross officials voiced their objections to how the bodies were transferred, and a lengthy exchange took place between Hamas members and Red Cross representatives.
