<p>Senior Israeli officials say it is time to move toward a new framework that includes the release of all hostages and the disarmament of Hamas. They emphasize that continued intransigence by the terror organization necessitates a broader and more decisive approach to resolving the conflict and securing Israel’s strategic objectives in Gaza.</p>

<p>The family of the hostage Rom Braslavski, who appeared in a video published by the Islamic Jihad terror organization this evening, stated: “We are deeply shaken. People talk a lot about what is happening in Gaza, about hunger, and I want to ask everyone who spoke about hunger: Did you see our Rom? He is not receiving food, he is not receiving medicine. He has simply been forgotten there. Six minutes of video - that is all it took for Rom to break on camera. But Rom has been there for 664 days," his family stated.</p><p>According to the family, "They managed to break Rom. Even the strongest person has a breaking point. Rom is an example of all the hostages. They must all be brought home now.</p><p>"We are demanding an immediate meeting with security officials. We are demanding a meeting with the political and military leadership - from the head of Military Intelligence to the Minister of Defense to the Prime Minister. We don’t understand what they are doing all day in the Knesset committees - talking? debating? Rom has been there for almost two years, and no one has even called to update us."</p><p>They added: "We ask that Ambassador Witkoff see this video. And we make an urgent plea to President Trump: Bring our son home.”</p>

The Book of Devarim teaches us about the importance of rebuke and the attitude we must assume toward it.

Following latest deal with a prominent university, President Trump writes: 'There will be no more Anti-Semitism, or Anti-Christian, or Anti-Anything Else! Woke is officially DEAD at Brown.'

Why would Hamas possibly give up the remaining hostages or show any flexibility in negotiations if it will receive official recognition from major Western powers without having to do anything? Opinion.

<p>The Israeli National Security Council (NSC) issued an updated travel warning for the United Arab Emirates on Thursday, citing increased threats against Israelis in the region.</p><p>“The update comes in light of assessments that terrorist organizations are currently intensifying their efforts to target Israelis,” the statement read. “There is a growing motivation for revenge following Operation Rising Lion, alongside increasing anti-Israeli and pro-Palestinian incitement since the start of the ‘Swords of Iron’ war — particularly following Hamas’s ‘starvation campaign’ narrative in Gaza.”</p><p>The NSC recommends that Israelis in the UAE avoid displaying Israeli or Jewish symbols in public and refrain from attending gatherings or events involving large numbers of Israelis.</p>

Foreign Minister tells Johann Wadephul that Israel won’t forfeit security, slams global pressure, PA incitement, and hypocrisy on Jewish presence in Judea and Samaria.

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt says the 2 officials will observe the situation on the ground in Gaza and use that experience to develop a new aid distribution mechanism.
