Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara has decided that the babies of bnei yeshivos who are required to enlist will be pushed to the end of the line for acceptance into supervised daycare centers, and as a result, there is a high probability that they will not be accepted, Kan News reported on Tuesday evening. According to her decision, the “law requires” that the children of bnei yeshivos be placed at the end of the line for these daycare centers, where the number of places is very limited, because their fathers are “lawbreakers.” Baharav-Miara previously revoked daycare subsidies for children of bnei yeshivos.

Danilo Mocanu, 20, a member of the 7th Armored Brigade’s 82nd Battalion, from Holon.

Sam Sutton, a prominent Sephardic community leader and co-head of the Sephardic Community Federation, has won the special election to replace former State Senator Simcha Felder, who recently vacated his seat after winning a spot on the New York City Council.

The district includes parts of Boro Park, Midwood, and Flatbush — neighborhoods with large Orthodox Jewish populations.

The United States has obtained new intelligence indicating that Israel is actively preparing for a possible military strike on Iranian nuclear facilities — a dramatic development that could upend President Donald Trump’s high-stakes diplomatic outreach to Tehran and spark a wider conflict across the Middle East, according to a report from CNN citing multiple American officials briefed on the matter. While officials say that Israeli leaders have not made a final decision, the likelihood of a unilateral strike has “significantly increased in recent months,” one source familiar with the intelligence told CNN. Behind the scenes, Israeli military movements, the repositioning of air munitions, and a recent air force drill have caught the attention of American intelligence agencies.

President Donald Trump is reportedly expressing growing frustration with the ongoing war in Gaza and has urged Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to “wrap it up,” according to two White House officials. “The president is frustrated about what is happening in Gaza. He wants the war to end, he wants the hostages to come home, he wants aid to go in, and he wants to start rebuilding Gaza,” a White House official told Axios. The official said Trump wants a resolution that addresses the humanitarian situation and secures the release of hostages. In recent weeks, Trump has focused on pressuring Israel to resume humanitarian aid deliveries to Gaza, which had been halted entirely.

Just months ago, Elon Musk was a star attraction in Republican circles — flying aboard Air Force One, appearing at Cabinet meetings, and standing shoulder-to-shoulder with former President Donald Trump at the White House. But as a Politico investigation published Monday noted, the billionaire tech mogul has all but vanished from the GOP’s political playbook. In a detailed report by Politico journalists Jessica Piper and Holly Otterbein, the publication outlines Musk’s rapid fall from favor among top Republican operatives and strategists. Once featured prominently in Trump campaign emails and social media blasts, Musk’s name has now disappeared from MAGA talking points — and not by accident. “He’s finished, done, gone,” one anonymous Republican operative told Politico.

Postpartum depression has become pretty well known, to the extent that some people even just use the term “postpartum” itself to refer to it. However perinatal mood and anxiety disorders (PMADS) include more than just depression and it’s important to distinguish between these different disorders. Aside from postpartum depression, PMADS include postpartum anxiety, postpartum OCD and postpartum psychosis. Postpartum Anxiety: When Worry Becomes Overwhelming Approximately 10-20 percent of women who give birth will experience postpartum anxiety.

Former Knesset member Moshe Feiglin on Tuesday responded harshly to Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu’s decision to allow humanitarian aid into Gaza. Speaking in an interview with Channel 14, Feiglin said:  “Ultimately, this aid is direct aid to the enemy – let’s stop lying to ourselves. Providing aid to the enemy while we send our soldiers to fight is a crime against IDF soldiers, no less than that.” It should be noted that Feiglin’s grandson, Yair Levin, H’yd, was killed in Rafah last year. “Every child in Gaza is the enemy. And I’ll tell you more than that. Every child, every baby in Gaza is the enemy.

In a fiery social media post on Tuesday, President Donald Trump labeled Joe Biden’s advisors as “treasonous thugs” who seized control of the White House, asserting that Biden was “cognitively impaired.” Writing on his Truth Social platform, Trump argued that Biden’s immigration policies did not reflect the former president’s intentions. “Joe Biden was not for Open Borders, he never talked about Open Borders, where criminals of all kinds, shapes, and sizes, can flow into our Country at will. It wasn’t his idea to Open the Border, and almost destroy our Country, and cost us Hundreds of Billions of Dollars to get criminals out of our Country, and go through the process we are going through now.

Fliers laced with virulent antisemitic rhetoric were scattered across Pittsburgh’s Squirrel Hill neighborhood, where the 2018 Tree of Life massacre took place. According to Pittsburgh Police, the offensive materials were tossed from a moving vehicle in plastic bags weighed down with corn kernels. One flier read: “Every single aspect of the Jewish Talmud is satanic,” alongside out-of-context excerpts misrepresenting Jewish teachings. Corey O’Connor, Allegheny County Comptroller and a candidate for Pittsburgh mayor, shared a photo of one such flier.  “Despicable antisemitic acts like those taking place in Squirrel Hill today have no place in our city,” he commented.
