Multiple people on board a private plane that crashed into a San Diego neighborhood early Thursday are dead, authorities said. Assistant Fire Department Chief Dan Eddy said during a news conference that they will be investigating whether the plane hit a power line. No one on the ground was injured, he said. San Diego police and fire officials said the plane could hold eight to 10 people but they do not yet know how many were on board.

Israel is completely changing its strategy in the Swords of Iron war and aims for a full conquest of the Strip, while separating the civilian population from Hamas terrorists, Channel 12 reported on Thursday. Since the beginning of the war, Israel has been dealing with what seems to be an insurmountable problem: the civilian population in the Gaza Strip, which Hamas uses as human shields. Since the beginning of the war, IDF soldiers have been clearing areas in Gaza of terrorists and then leaving the area and allowing civilians to return to their homes. But of course, Hamas would return to the area along with the civilians. IDF soldiers have been forced to return to the same areas time and time again, clearing houses and streets of Hamas terrorists, at great risk to their lives.

Gedolei Eretz Yisroel have been preparing to embark on a fundraising mission to the United States following Shavuos on behalf of Keren Olam Hatorah, and are now set to arrive on Sunday, June 15. The trip comes amid drastic reductions in Israeli government financial aid for yeshivos and kollelim, a move that has left countless institutions scrambling to cover basic operational costs. The first stop on this year’s mission will be in Los Angeles — notably making this the first time the city is included in the tour, which last year began in New York and New Jersey. From Los Angeles, the delegation will travel to Lakewood, with their arrival slated for Tuesday, June 17.

The House of Representatives passed President Donald Trump’s ambitious tax and spending package by a razor-thin margin early Thursday, with a 215-214-1 vote, narrowly beating Speaker Mike Johnson’s Memorial Day target. Two Republicans, Reps. Warren Davidson of Ohio and Thomas Massie of Kentucky, broke ranks and voted alongside every Democrat. Meanwhile, Freedom Caucus Chairman Rep. Andy Harris of Maryland abstained by voting “present,” effectively enabling the measure to pass.
With House approval secured, the bill now heads to the Senate for its next hurdle.
