Webinar: “One Heart, Two Homes” Offers Tools and Comfort for a Community in Crisis As the war in Israel intensifies, many in our community are living in a state of fear, heartbreak, and helplessness. Our loved ones — children, siblings, grandchildren — are facing real danger: some are under constant threat from rocket fire, others are sheltering in safe rooms, and many are serving with courage in the IDF. Back home, we are trying to function while our hearts remain in Israel. Every siren, every alert, every news update feels personal. Summer plans have unraveled, anxiety has spiked, and the emotional toll is growing. The physical and emotional safety of our families is under threat — and we are all feeling it.

The IDF releases footage of the Israeli Air Force bombing trucks ferrying weapons between Tehran and Qom a short while ago.

As the war with Iran escalates and fear grips Eretz Yisroel, I am compelled to write about a disturbing trend: people desperate to leave the country are falling prey to risky and exorbitant travel schemes. While I understand the desire to escape danger or attend important events like a family chasuna, the lack of seichel in some of these decisions is alarming and dangerous. Reports are circulating of individuals exploiting the crisis for profit, offering questionable “escape” routes. People are chartering private jets from Sharm El-Sheikh in Egypt, while another company is operating boats from Israel to Cyprus. Others are booking flights from Egypt to Europe or the U.S. after crossing the border. Videos have surfaced showing hundreds of Jews crossing into Egypt – during a time of war!

An exposé by the U.S. newspaper The Wall Street Journal claims to reveal details of the sophisticated covert operation Israel’s Mossad intelligence agency executed in advance of attacking Iran.
The operation involved a multi-year effort to smuggle hundreds of explosive-equipped drones into Iranian territory through commercial channels while positioning trained operatives near air defense installations and missile launch facilities.
The Mossad’s teams neutralized dozens of missiles before launch, creating conditions that enabled the Israeli Air Force’s F-35 aircraft to operate with impunity, explaining the surprisingly limited scope of Iran’s retaliatory response.

French authorities ordered black partition walls erected around some Israeli defense industry exhibits at the Paris Air Show, a move denounced by Israel’s Defense Ministry, which demanded an immediate reversal. A French appeals court had ruled Friday against activist groups who sought to block Israeli companies from participating in the show due to the war in Gaza. The Paris Air Show, held at Le Bourget north of Paris, is one of the world’s largest and most prestigious events for the aerospace and defense industry. The black walls appeared overnight ahead of the show’s opening Monday, visually isolating Israeli booths from dozens of other international exhibitors.
