The elimination was carried out by a drone that targeted the commander’s vehicle as he was driving. “An Air Force aircraft, directed by Division 91, attacked overnight in the Derdgha’iya area in southern Lebanon and killed the terrorist Ahmed Adnan Bajija, a battalion commander in Hezbollah’s Radwan Force,” the IDF spokesperson stated. “During the war, he advanced and carried out numerous terror attacks against the citizens of the State of Israel and IDF forces.

After Israeli leftists spent hours protesting on the streets this week and threatening a civil war, the coalition succeeded in passing a judicial reform bill overnight Wednesday. No other country in the world has a judicial selection process like Israel, with a leftist echo chamber responsible for electing its judges, shackling the elected government.  And the bill that passed overnight, a watered-down version of the original bill, is not enough to change the composition of the courts and its authoritarian power –  it is only a tiny baby step to correcting what is wrong with the judicial system and restoring autonomy to the government.

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said Wednesday that U.S. President Donald Trump’s auto tariffs are a “direct attack” on his country and that the trade war is hurting Americans, noting that American consumer confidence is at a multi-year low. Trump said earlier Wednesday that he was placing 25% tariffs on auto imports and, to underscore his intention, he stated “This is permanent.” “This is a very direct attack,” Carney responded. “We will defend our workers. We will defend our companies. We will defend our country.” Carney said he needs to see the details of Trump’s executive order before taking retaliatory measures. He called it unjustified and said he will leave the election campaign to go to Ottawa on Thursday to chair his special Cabinet committee on U.S. relations.
