IDF Arabic-language spokesperson Avichay Adraee issued a message on Thursday directed at the population of Deir al-Balah in central Gaza, cautioning them about Hamas operations being carried out in civilian areas of their city.
Adraee’s post included the statement: “This is a warning about Hamas elements hiding among you!” Alongside his warning, he shared an aerial photo highlighting specific sites that the IDF says are being used by Hamas fighters.
He stated that the image illustrates the way Hamas operatives embed themselves in densely populated civilian areas, relying on infrastructure meant for public use while conducting terrorist activities.

JUST IN: PM Bibi Netanyahu says he has appointed Maj. Gen. David Zini as the next Shin Bet chief. Zini currently serves as the head of the IDF Training Command and General Staff Corps. He has also been responsible for advancing the draft of Haredi soldiers to the military.

Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu on Thursday evening appointed a new Shin Bet chief, ignoring Attorney-General Gali Baharav-Miara’s directive on Wednesday banning him from being involved in the appointment. Netanyahu announced his intention to appoint Maj.-Gen. David Zini to the position, replacing Bar, who is scheduled to resign on June 15. “Zini has served in many operational and command positions in the IDF, including as a fighter in the Sayeret Matkal commando unit, commander of Battalion 51 in the Golani Brigade, commander of the Egoz unit, commander of the Alexandroni Brigade, founder of the Commando Brigade, and commander of the Training and Doctrine Command and commander of the General Staff Corps,” the Prime Minister’s office said.

DRAMATIC RESCUE: Police in Piscataway, NJ, have released dramatic bodycam footage showing officers rescuing an unconscious man from a vehicle stalled on train tracks — just seconds before a speeding train slammed into the car, obliterating it.

The Senate voted on Thursday to block California’s first-in-the nation rule banning the sale of new gas-powered cars by 2035, acting to kill the nation’s most aggressive effort to transition toward electric vehicles as President Donald Trump’s administration has doubled down on fossil fuels. The resolution approved by the Senate goes to the White House, where Trump is expected to sign it, along with two other measures blocking California’s rules that the Senate is poised to pass. The House approved the three resolutions earlier this month. The GOP effort to kill the rules could have a profound impact on California’s longtime efforts to curb air pollution.

Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has spotlighted four major contributors to the dramatic rise in chronic illnesses among children in a striking new report issued Thursday — the first major policy move under President Trump’s initiative to address what the administration calls a growing public health emergency affecting nearly 40% of the country’s youth.
According to the report, a combination of harmful food habits, exposure to industrial toxins, insufficient physical activity, and excessive reliance on pharmaceuticals are fueling a surge in long-term health conditions — such as obesity, autism spectrum disorders, cancers, psychological disorders, and allergic reactions. “The health of American children is in crisis,” the commission warned.

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson says President Trump is a monster. Someone should remind this racist that his approval rating was recently 6.6% approval with a staggering 80% disapproval rating. One of the lowest of any elected official in U.S. history.
