Antisemitism has become part of school life for most Jewish students in England. A government-commissioned report found that 3 in 5 of them have been targeted by it. Other students see it too: 1 in 5 of all students say they’ve seen antisemitism at school, and under half believe that it would be dealt with if they reported it. The government commissioned Sir David Bell, once a top schools inspector, to lead the review. The report will provide 27 recommendations which are reportedly set to be adopted in full. @StandWithUsUK

The Israel-U.S. Binational Industrial Research and Development (BIRD) Foundation - which has backed U.S.-Israel tech collaboration for decades - is investing $7.4 million in seven new joint research and development projects, bringing the total value of all projects to up to $20 million when combined with private-sector funding. Among the projects: a 3D-printing system for orthopedic tools, an early cancer detection platform, and an AI-based seed sorting technology. To date BIRD has backed over 1,200 joint projects totaling more than $470 million in investment - generating over $10 billion in direct and indirect sales. The U.S.-Israel partnership in innovation is alive and thriving.

Sheba Medical Center in Israel has jumped to #6 on Newsweek’s annual ranking of the world’s best smart hospitals - for the sixth consecutive year placing it among the world’s most innovative medical institutions, alongside Mayo Clinic and Massachusetts General!

A Palestinian teacher who worked inside UNRWA schools in Gaza for 15 years has broken her silence - at personal risk to herself and her family. When she confronted a colleague over antisemitic material being taught to children, a senior UNRWA school official threatened her while holding a pair of scissors: “If you don’t stop arguing, we will cut out your tongue.” She stayed silent for years out of fear for her family. Now she is speaking - because she believes what she witnessed in those classrooms helped create the conditions for the October 7, 2023, Hamas massacre. “My most important message is that we need to pay attention to who is teaching our children.”

🔴One month after a pilot attempted to crash a flydubai plane into Ben Gurion Airport’s terminal, Israel is taking no chances. Israel has banned United Airlines pilot Sina Amjadian from entering Israeli airspace as a crew member, following allegations that he publicly expressed support for the Iranian regime and Hezbollah on social media. The move comes as Israel is actively reviewing the social media activity and backgrounds of foreign pilots flying into Ben Gurion - a security gap exposed by last month’s flydubai attack, in which the Omani co-pilot had been previously flagged for radicalization but was never barred from flying the Dubai-Tel Aviv route.

Report: A Chabad Hasidic man was stabbed by a woman in Manhattan’s Diamond District Wednesday evening in what the NYPD Hate Crimes Task Force is investigating as a possible antisemitic attack. According to eyewitness reports, the attacker passed by several other pedestrians without incident before targeting the victim - who was visibly dressed in traditional Jewish attire - stabbing him with what appeared to be a syringe or needle. The victim was taken to Bellevue Hospital in stable condition. Manhattan Shomrim is asking anyone with security camera footage or dashcam video from the area to come forward immediately.
