Klal Yisroel is requested to recite Tehillim for the complete and speedy recovery of HaGaon HaRav Dov Landau, Rosh Yeshivas Slabodka, who is currently undergoing surgery following a fall at his home. As reported by YWN on Thursday morning, the Gadol HaDor, aged 95, suffered severe pain after the incident and was unable to attend Shacharis at the yeshiva. He was promptly taken to the hospital, where tests and an X-ray were conducted. It was then learned, that the Rosh Yeshiva suffered a fractured hip. Based on the medical team’s recommendation, Rav Landau is now undergoing a surgical procedure led by Dr. Itai Holzer, head of the Orthopedic Department at the Mayanei HaYeshua Hospital. The name for tefillah is Efraim Dov ben Devorah b’soch sha’ar cholei Yisrael.

President Donald Trump voiced his belief on Thursday that he deserves global acclaim for playing a central role in the establishment of the Abraham Accords—historic agreements that opened diplomatic ties between Israel and several Arab nations.
“Maybe for the Abraham Accords,” Trump remarked when questioned about a potential Nobel Peace Prize nomination. “I don’t want to get ahead of myself in this one.”
His remarks came during a meeting at the White House with a visiting Norwegian delegation, which included Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre and Finance Minister Jens Stoltenberg.

What began as a high-profile visit by Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir has descended into chaos, as hundreds of pro-Palestinian protesters converged outside the iconic Chabad-Lubavitch headquarters at 770 Eastern Parkway this evening, triggering confrontations, shouting matches, and reports of physical altercations with Lubavitcher bochurim. The unrest follows a whirlwind 24 hours for Ben-Gvir, a polarizing figure in Israeli politics known for his hardline views, whose presence has ignited fierce backlash across multiple New York City stops. On Wednesday night, Ben-Gvir was met with loud protests and jeering at Yale University, where demonstrators interrupted his address with chants and disruptions.
