Preliminary conversations are underway between the Prime Minister’s Office and the White House aimed at arranging a meeting between Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu and President Donald Trump, according to two sources who spoke with The Jerusalem Post.
The sources clarified that while initial contacts have been made, a formal meeting has not yet been scheduled.
“There is no doubt that both sides have a shared interest in holding a ‘victory party’ after the war with Iran,” a senior Israeli official told Walla.

PRESS SEC: “Barack Obama & Joe Biden sent pallets of cash, American taxpayer dollars, in a failed attempt to buy the Iranian regime’s compliance with a weak & ineffective deal. President sent a fleet of American war planes to destroy Iran’s ability to produce a nuclear weapon.”

Rep. Andy Ogles calls on AG Pam Bondi to launch denaturalization proceedings against Communist Zohran Mamdani and deport him: “Mamdani will destroy the great city of New York. He needs to be deported.”

Tuesday marked the final leg of an unforgettable two-week journey across North America, as Gedolei Yisroel concluded their historic mission to sustain the olam hatorah in Eretz Yisroel. The day began, fittingly, with a stirring call to action and ended with emotional farewells as the gedolim boarded their return flight to Eretz Yisroel, leaving behind inspired kehillos renewed in their commitment to supporting limud hatorah. The day’s events began in the home of R’ Yitzy Fried of the Five Towns, who opened his doors to the Gedolim and addressed the assembled crowd. “The Gedolei Yisroel are going above and beyond in this campaign,” he said.

In a major win for individuals with hearing impairments, the New York State Legislature has passed a landmark bill—championed by Assemblyman Aron Wieder and Brooklyn State Senator Sam Sutton—that mandates insurance coverage for backup cochlear implant processors, closing a critical gap in existing healthcare policies. The legislation, introduced by Assemblyman Wieder as bill A.6314-A, was inspired by a powerful encounter with a constituent whose daughter relies on a cochlear implant to hear. When the family’s insurance denied coverage for a backup device, the young girl was left in silence during periods when her primary processor needed repairs—an all-too-common scenario for cochlear users across the state.

Lieutenant Colonel (res.) A., an Israeli Air Force pilot who commanded the initial airstrike of Operation Rising Lion deep inside Iranian territory, has for the first time revealed the personal letter he wrote to his loved ones once the combat mission concluded.
As the first pilot to cross into hostile airspace, A. took on the riskiest role in the opening wave of attacks. His assignment placed him at the forefront of what became one of the most daring operations carried out by Israel in recent years.
Knesset member Matan Kahana, a longtime friend of A., shared the contents of the letter on social media after the pilot gave his consent.

Ofra Keidar was buried on Thursday at Kibbutz Be’eri, after being held hostage for 625 days, nearly 21 months since her abduction on October 7, 2023.
Her son Elad Keidar spoke at the graveside, reflecting on their final phone call. “After they told us you had been recovered from Gaza, I couldn’t stop replaying our last phone conversation in my head – the photos and videos I saw, the situation we were in at home, and the state you were in when you faced the terrorists. I started analyzing the entire situation from every angle, like a 360-degree view. I need these details to find closure in my personal journey. I hope with all my heart that all the families of the hostages will also be able to find their closure.”

Israeli Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu delivered a video address on Thursday in which he declared that Israel had secured a meaningful triumph over Iran and emphasized that this moment presents a strategic chance to broaden the circle of peace in the region.
Referencing Tehillim, Netanyahu stated: “The Lord gives strength to His people; the Lord blesses His people with peace.”
He continued: “We fought with strength against Iran and achieved a great victory. This victory opens the door to a dramatic expansion of the peace agreements. We are working on this vigorously.”

Nestle said Wednesday it will eliminate artificial colors from its U.S. food and beverages by the middle of 2026. It’s the latest big food company making that pledge. Last week, Kraft Heinz and General Mills said they would remove artificial dyes from their U.S. products by 2027. General Mills also said it plans to remove artificial dyes from its U.S. cereals and from all foods served in K-12 schools by the middle of 2026. The move has broad support. About two-thirds of Americans favor restricting or reformulating processed foods to remove ingredients like added sugar or dyes, according to an AP-NORC poll. Both California and West Virginia have recently banned artificial dyes in foods served in schools. On Sunday, Republican Gov.

President Donald Trump claimed that reporters from CNN and The New York Times could soon face termination over what he called inaccurate coverage of the recent American airstrikes on Iranian nuclear facilities.
Both media organizations had published pieces suggesting that the U.S. bombing campaign failed to achieve lasting damage to Iran’s nuclear infrastructure, estimating that any disruption would last just a few months.
However, CIA Director John Ratcliffe contradicted those claims on Wednesday, stating that reliable intelligence pointed to severe destruction of Iran’s nuclear capabilities, potentially requiring years for the regime to rebuild.
In a post to Truth Social on Thursday, Trump took aim at the two news giants.

The Food and Drug Administration said Wednesday it has expanded existing warnings on the two leading COVID-19 vaccines about a rare heart side effect mainly seen in young men. Myocarditis, a type of heart inflammation that is usually mild, emerged as a complication after the first shots became widely available in 2021. Prescribing information from both Pfizer and Moderna already advises doctors about the issue. In April, the FDA sent letters to both drugmakers asking them to update and expand the warnings to add more detail about the problem and to cover a larger group of patients. While the FDA can mandate label changes, the process is often more of a negotiation with companies.

A home in the southern Lebanon town of Houla, allegedly used by Hezbollah to observe Israeli forces, was demolished by IDF troops overnight, the military says. According to the IDF, the home belonged to Ahmad Ghazi Ali, a Hezbollah operative killed in a drone strike in Houla a week ago.

WH PRESS SECRETARY: “With President Trump as Commander-in-Chief, the world is a much safer place… After decades in which past Presidents coddled and enabled the world’s leading state sponsor of terrorism, President Trump finally ended the immediate threat of a nuclear Iranian regime.”
