The BBC has discontinued its relationship with Gaza-based freelancer Ahmed Alagha after mounting criticism over his deeply antisemitic and inflammatory social media activity, according to The Telegraph.
Alagha, a freelance contributor to BBC Arabic, came under fire for a string of online posts in which he vilified Jews and celebrated violence against Israelis. Among the most egregious, he wrote that “the Jews, they are the devils of the hypocrites” and praised the terrorist who murdered eight people near a Jerusalem synagogue, calling him a “martyr” who “stole my heart.”

In an interview with the Jewish Journal, Syria’s newly appointed president, Al-Julani, addressed the issue of Israel and spoke of a possible shift in regional dynamics.
“The era of endless tit-for-tat bombings must end. No nation prospers when its skies are filled with fear. The reality is, we have common enemies — and we can play a major role in regional security,” he stated, suggesting that continued hostilities serve no one and hinting at an interest in a more stable and cooperative future.

Israel’s recent move to bar a high-ranking Arab diplomatic delegation from entering Ramallah drew harsh criticism from Jordan on Saturday, according to Arab News. The delegation had intended to meet with Palestinian Authority officials but was denied access by Israeli authorities.
The Jordanian Foreign Ministry issued a forceful rebuke, characterizing Israel’s decision as a “blatant violation” of its duties as an occupying force. The ministry further accused the Israeli leadership of acting with “arrogance” and of flouting international norms.

Earlier today, Palestinian Arab reports claimed that an Israeli military operation in the Tel al-Sultan district of Rafah led to the deaths of over 30 individuals and caused many others to be wounded near a location designated for distributing humanitarian aid. These assertions were swiftly picked up by international news outlets and sparked a surge of condemnation toward Israel.
In response, the Israel Defense Forces issued a statement clarifying their position. “The IDF is currently unaware of injuries caused by IDF fire within the Humanitarian Aid distribution site. The matter is still under review.”

Today, Erev Yom Tov, the Houthi terrorist group in Yemen fired a missile toward central Israel, interrupting Shavuos preparations for countless Israeli families. The projectile was successfully intercepted before causing harm.
Warning sirens were activated across multiple regions, including Yerushalayim , Tel Aviv, Gush Etzion, and the Chevron area, following the launch. Magen David Adom confirmed that there were no injuries or reports of shrapnel landing as a result of the incident.
Flights en route to Ben-Gurion Airport experienced delays, including EL AL aircraft arriving from London and Boston, due to the heightened security situation.

PARIS – Following violent riots in Paris sparked by Paris Saint-Germain’s Champions League win, Israeli Knesset member Ohad Tal sarcastically called for the creation of a new state: Paristine —

In a powerful address delivered just days before Zeman Matan Toraseinu, Rav Shneur Kluft, one of northern Israel’s most respected rabbanim and the Av Beis Din of Adas Yisrael in Haifa, sharply criticized the misplaced priorities surrounding Shavuos observance in some segments of the Torah world.
Rav Kluft, who also serves as Rosh Kollel of Daas Yoel and Rosh Yeshiva of Nachlas Naftali in Tzefas, devoted his derashah to what he described as a troubling trend: “People are making the ikkar the tofel, the main thing secondary, and the secondary thing into the main thing.”
