Amid the ceasefire with Iran, IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir says that “despite the phenomenal achievement, we must keep our feet on the ground. Many challenges lie ahead. We must remain focused; there is no time to rest on our laurels.”

A wave of anger swept across the chareidi political leadership on Monday after dozens of chareidi educational institutions were issued closure orders by Israel’s Education Ministry. The schools and chadarim had opened despite Home Front Command guidelines issued during the current security situation.
Minister of Yerushalayim and Jewish Tradition Meir Porush blasted Education Minister Yoav Kisch for the move, accusing him of overstepping his authority and displaying a lack of understanding of the chareidi way of life. Finance Committee Chairman MK Moshe Gafni joined the criticism shortly afterward.

President Donald Trump on Tuesday injected some uncertainty over whether the U.S. would abide by the mutual defense guarantees outlined in the NATO treaty as he headed to its summit — comments that could revive long-standing concern from European allies about his commitment to the military alliance. “Depends on your definition,” Trump told reporters as he was headed to The Hague, where this year’s summit is being held. “There’s numerous definitions of Article 5. You know that, right? But I’m committed to being their friends.” Asked later aboard Air Force One to clarify, Trump said he is “committed to saving lives” and “committed to life and safety” but did not expand further, saying he didn’t want to elaborate while flying on an airplane.

Rep. Buddy Carter has nominated President Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize following the Iran-Israel ceasefire agreement.

President Trump received a formal nomination for the Nobel Peace Prize on Tuesday, credited for his pivotal role in bringing about the cease-fire between Israel and Iran.
Rep. Buddy Carter of Georgia submitted the nomination in a letter addressed to the Norwegian Nobel Committee. In it, he commended Trump “in recognition of his extraordinary and historic role in brokering and end to the armed conflict.”
Carter, who has served Georgia’s 1st Congressional District, based in Savannah, since 2015, stated, “President Trump’s influence was instrumental in forging a swift agreement that many believed to be impossible.”
