Nissan is recalling more than 480,000 of its vehicles across the U.S. and Canada due to potential manufacturing defects that could cause engine failure. The recall covers certain Nissan Rogues between 2021-2024 model years and 2019-2020 Altimas — as well as a number of 2019-2022 Infiniti QX50s and 2022 Infiniti QX55s sold under the automaker’s luxury brand, according to Nissan and documents published by the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration this week. The vehicles impacted carry specific “VC-Turbo” engines that may have manufacturing defects in their bearings, the NHTSA’s recall report notes. This may cause engine damage and possibly lead to engine failure while driving, the regulator warns — increasing crash risks.

Israeli Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu traveled to Kibbutz Nir Oz on Thursday, marking his first visit to the community nearly two years after it suffered one of the deadliest attacks in Israel’s history. The kibbutz lost a quarter of its population to murder or abduction during the Hamas-led massacre on October 7.
Netanyahu had faced sharp criticism for not visiting the devastated southern communities since the outbreak of the war. His arrival at Nir Oz comes amid ongoing scrutiny over the government’s response to the attack and its handling of recovery efforts.

The IDF announced that it eliminated the terrorist cell responsible for launching rockets from northern Gaza toward Sderot and Ibim on Wednesday.

Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu visited Mossad headquarters Wednesday evening, where he met with agency director David Barnea and senior commanders to commend their efforts in Operation Rising Lion and in years of intelligence work against Iran. Netanyahu credited Mossad’s “pagers and walkie-talkie operation” against Hezbollah last September as a turning point that paved the way for subsequent events, including the elimination of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah, the collapse of Syrian President Bashar Assad’s regime, and a joint mission to neutralize an immediate existential threat from Iran. “Your contribution was immense,” Netanyahu told Mossad officials.

According to a report published Thursday evening by Reuters, citing an Israeli official, Israel is preparing for a potential agreement that would bring about a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip. The official indicated that Israel expects Hamas to provide a formal reply by Friday.
Should Hamas respond favorably, Israeli officials are expected to participate in indirect negotiations aimed at finalizing the deal.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is set to convene a meeting of the security cabinet tonight at his Jerusalem office to discuss the proposed hostage arrangement and the broader developments in Gaza.

Mark Penn, a former Clinton White House advisor and pollster, sounded the alarm Wednesday over Zohran Mamdani’s stunning victory in New York City’s Democratic mayoral primary, calling it a “9-1-1 moment” for the Democratic Party.
