Israeli Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu told the parents of hostage Eitan Mor that the Israeli government is advancing a deal that could lead to the release of ten hostages currently held by terror groups in Gaza, according to a statement from the Tikva Forum on Monday.
Eitan Mor, 23, was taken captive while working as a security guard at the Nova music festival on October 7. His father, Tzvika Mor, co-founded the Tikva Forum, a right-leaning advocacy group that offers an alternative to the mainstream Hostages and Missing Families Forum.

It is with great sadness that Matzav.com reports the petirah of Rav Gershon Ingber zt”l, author of the sefer Kan Shlomo on Maseches Kinim. He was 78.
Rav Ingber devoted his life to the study, elucidation, and dissemination of this little-learned masechta, which is known for its complexity and limited practical application in our times.

The popular song “Od Yoter Tov” has stirred sharp criticism from one of the most respected figures in authentic Jewish music. Renowned composer and marbitz Torah Rav Hillel Paley, known for penning many classic niggunim that have become staples in the world of Yiddishe music, delivered a scathing critique of the hit, comparing it unfavorably to the controversial “Bishilton HaKoifrim.”

It is with great sadness that Matzav.comreports the petirah of Rav Pinchas Edri zt”l, longtime Sephardic Chief Rabbi of Givatayim. Rav Edri was niftar Monday evening at the age of 81 after battling illness in recent years. He served in his position for decades, endearing the rabbanus to the city’s residents and leaving behind a legacy of leadership, Torah, and ahavas Yisroel.

During a meeting at the White House on Monday, El Salvador’s President Nayib Bukele dismissed the idea of returning a deported man to the United States, despite a Justice Department admission that his removal was a mistake.
“How can I return him to the United States? Like if I smuggle him into the United States?” Bukele remarked in response to a question about Kilmar Abrego Garcia while seated next to President Donald Trump. “Of course I’m not going to do it. The question is preposterous.”
When pressed on whether Abrego Garcia would be freed in El Salvador, Bukele stated, “We’re not very fond of releasing terrorists.”

President Donald Trump took to Truth Social on Monday to assert that the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine began under President Joe Biden’s leadership, not his own.
“The war between Russia and Ukraine is Biden’s war, not mine. I just got here, and for four years during my term, had no problem in preventing it from happening,” Trump posted, stressing that he “had nothing to do with this war” and is actively seeking to “get the death and destruction to stop.”

Numerous government members responded harshly to the exposure of the shocking report on Tuesday, revealing that Attorney-General Gali Baharav-Miara and Shin Bet chief Ronen Bar threw a senior Shin Bet official into prison for revealing information that embarrassed them. Diaspora Affairs Minister Amichai Chikli stated: “‘A.’ is a hero of Israel – a whistleblower who was willing to take a risk against a pair of dangerous officials.

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis made headlines earlier this year when he became the first public official to officially refer to the Gulf of Mexico by a new title in an emergency declaration for a winter storm. That terminology — “Gulf of America” — is now codified in state law.
On Monday, DeSantis received and signed two pieces of legislation. One bill, HB 575, amends 92 references in state statutes to rename the body of water on Florida’s western coastline. The second, HB 549, mandates the use of the term “Gulf of America” in K-12 educational content across the state.

Yet another Shin Bet affair was revealed on Tuesday morning when an Israeli court lifted the gag order on the case, which began when the Shin Bet leadership and Attorney-General Gali Baharav-Miara threw a senior Shin Bet agent into jail without access to a lawyer for exposing information that embarrassed them. Several weeks ago, Israeli media outlets reported that Shin Bet chief Ronen Bar had launched a probe into the infiltration of Kahanism into the Israel Police against National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir and senior police officials. According to leaked documents, Bar launched the probe even after he was told by Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and Attorney General Gali Barahav-Miara that there was no legal basis for the investigation.

President Donald Trump is calling for New York Attorney General Letitia James to step down following a media report that raised questions about her involvement in a real estate matter.
According to PJ Media, in August 2023, James signed a document naming her relative Shamice Thompson-Hairston as her power of attorney. The paperwork included a declaration stating, “I intend to occupy this property as my principal residence.” The outlet noted that shortly after, James was actively pursuing her civil fraud lawsuit against Trump, suggesting the property may not have been her actual primary residence.
