What is happening at MSF, or has it always been this way and we just didn't know? Sexual exploitation, employees active in terrorist organizations. It is sad. It is unacceptable for humanitarian organization workers to be involved in such crimes.

Over the past several months, we have been advancing a winterisation plan for Gaza - here is a summary of the measures taken so far: ⛺️ More than 75,000 tents have entered the Gaza Strip through the UN, international organizations, donor countries, and the private sector, including over 5,000 in the past week alone. 🚛 More than 7,500 trucks carrying clothing, blankets, sanitation supplies, and medical equipment have entered the Gaza Strip. 💧 We coordinated the entry of fuel to support the operation of wastewater drainage systems throughout the Gaza Strip. 🔧 We coordinated repairs and maintenance of the water supply network at the request of international organizations operating in the Gaza Strip. 🚚 We approved the entry of 8 sewage tankers for the @ICRC. 💉 We approved the entry of 7,500 doses of tetanus vaccine for @UNICEF. 🏥 We approved the entry of 3 mobile clinics for @IMC_Worldwide. ⛽️ We approved the entry of medical equipment, fuel, and engine oil for hospitals and medical facilities operated by the @UN and international organizations. We will continue working in cooperation with the @BoardOfPeace, the UN, international organizations, and donor countries to advance winter preparedness efforts and maintain the stability of the humanitarian situation in the Gaza Strip, while taking the necessary measures to prevent Hamas from taking control of humanitarian aid and essential supplies intended for the civilian population.

The Commission of Inquiry (COI) report, issued under the auspices of the politicized UN Human Rights Council, is not a human rights report but a propaganda document detached from reality, aimed at undermining Israel’s right to self-defense, delegitimizing the Jewish state, and legitimizing jihadist terrorism against its citizens. The Commission, which was established in 2021, was flawed from the outset and has targeted Israel exclusively since day one. Its activities are an example of the vast UN resources, funding, and personnel devoted to advancing anti-Israel propaganda. This false report says far more about the political agenda of the body behind it than it does about Israel. The fact that the so-called “report” parrots the narrative of terrorist organizations word for word is clear proof of its true nature and motives. This is the shameful legacy of the UN Secretary-General and the High Commissioner for Human Rights.

Pleased to meet today in Jerusalem with MEP @hildebentele, Chair of the European Parliament’s Delegation for Relations with Israel. We discussed regional developments: Iran, Gaza, Lebanon and more. I thanked her for standing with Israel and for her efforts in promoting EU-Israel relations.

How does 🇮🇱 democracy work? In Israel, every citizen aged 18 and over has the right to vote. One vote determines which party they support. The results determine how the 120 seats in the Knesset are distributed, which parties enter parliament and who can form a government. A 3.25% electoral threshold. A parliamentary majority of 61 seats.

Sheep poisoned and left to die. For the 17th time this year, Palestinian attackers have deliberately targeted livestock in Judea and Samaria in an attempt to harm Jewish shepherds and destroy their livelihoods. This is calculated cruelty. Poisoning innocent animals to inflict suffering on the people who care for them. A vicious act of violence. No excuses. No justification.

The Palestinian wave of terror continues. Two IDF soldiers were murdered this morning in a shooting attack near Judea Junction. A large-scale Hamas terrorist attack targeting innocent civilians was foiled, as evidenced by the substantial quantities of weapons and ammunition discovered. Our brave soldiers acted with courage and determination and prevented an even more devastating terrorist attack. Israeli security forces continue to operate with full force to thwart terrorism and bring those responsible to justice.

Antisemitism in the BBC. A must-read to realize that the BBC's coverage of the Gaza war wasn't journalism, it was narrative engineering.

This isn't journalism, this is political activism, specifically anti-Israel activism. They are betraying journalism and forfeiting their professional integrity.

🇮🇱🇮🇱 This post is only for those who care about facts and believe that a nation does not forfeit its right to live on its ancestral land simply because of a massacre and ethnic cleansing. I keep hearing people justify the terror attack today near Hebron under the pretext that Israel is "occupying" the area. Jews have lived in Hebron since the days of Abraham, over 3,800 years ago. In 1929, the Arab residents of Hebron massacred the city’s Jewish population. Seven years later, in 1936, the British Mandate authorities decided to evacuate and remove every survivor left from the Jewish community following the massacre. There is a term for what the British did: ethnic cleansing. Just 32 years later, in 1968, Jewish residents returned to live in the city. A nation that was ethnically cleansed from a community where it had lived for 3,800 years cannot be considered an "occupier" when it returns just 32 years later. And if you’ve made it this far, here are the Main Periods Without a Jewish Presence in Hebron since 1,800bc, 3,800 years ago: ​The Babylonian Exile (6th Century BCE) – ~50 to 70 years: The Crusader Period (1099–1187) – ~88 years: Modern Era (1936–1968) – ~32 years. Jews cannot be considered occupiers in Hebron, as they are the indigenous people of the city.

Another murderous attack on Israelis in Judea and Samaria. Five Israelis wounded, two critically, in yet another Palestinian terrorist attack near Hebron. This is part of a deadly wave of Palestinian terrorism targeting Jews. Palestinian incitement, the Palestinian Authority's Pay for Slay policy, and an education system that encourages murdering Jews fuels this violence. There can be no justification. There can be no excuses. Terrorism must be condemned unequivocally.

Israeli lives matter too. Will this be met with clear condemnation, or ignored like the rest of the recent terror attacks against Israelis?

🇮🇱 And Israel is the problem? ​This week in the Middle East: ° ​Hezbollah acknowledged that a truck loaded with explosives seized by Lebanese authorities belonged to the Iranian-backed terror group, intended for use against Israeli forces. ° ​Hamas, the Muslim Brotherhood’s terror arm, officially declared its readiness to repeat the October 7th massacre. ​And yet, all you hear are demands for Israel to make concessions, with zero real commitment from the world to dismantle these two deadly terror organizations. ​It is deeply disturbing that nations which rightly sent their soldiers across continents to fight Al-Qaeda and ISIS now demand that Israelis accept two genocide-minded terror groups operating right on their borders. ​The distance between Hamas in Gaza and Hezbollah in Lebanon is roughly 185 kilometers. We are right in the middle, fighting for the most basic human right: to live without being massacred. ​Human rights have been politicized beyond recognition. Day after day, the world blames Israel. ​Israeli human rights must not be denied.

Article 1 of President Trump’s plan is clear: Gaza must be a deradicalized, terror-free zone that poses no threat to its neighbors. ​Meanwhile, Hamas declares it is ready to repeat October 7th. ​Anyone who cares about Gazans must demand Hamas be disarmed and removed from power. Pressuring Israel while Hamas refuses to disarm only empowers terrorists, threatens Israeli security, and leaves Gazans under Hamas's brutal rule.

שיחה טובה עם ידידי, שר החוץ של קפריסין @ckombos. שוחחנו על ההסכם הטורקי-לובי לתיחום הגבול הימי, הפוגע באינטרסים ובזכויות של מספר מדינות באזור מזרח הים התיכון. שוחחנו גם על היחסים הבילטרליים בין המדינות ויחסי ישראל והאיחוד האירופי. אמשיך לחזק את היחסים בין ישראל לקפריסין! 🇨🇾🇮🇱

“They wanted the world to see what they did to her.” Palestinian Hamas filmed its atrocities on October 7. Israeli women were raped, tortured and murdered. The world saw. Too many chose denial over compassion. wsj.com/opinion/free-express…
