Description
HEADLINES
- Iran denies tolls as talks loom
- Fetterman contempt for Israel equals anti-American
- One-third Hesder rabbis boycott tank plan
The time is now 10:01 AM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.
In Regional Impacts, President Trump says Iran has told the United States that no tolls are being sought from ships traveling through the Strait of Hormuz. Trump posted that Iran has informed the US that there are 'NO TOLLS, NO INSURANCE COSTS, & NO OTHER CHARGES OF ANY KIND BEING SOUGHT OR RECEIVED BY IRAN ON SHIPS TRAVELING THE STRAIT OF HORMUZ'. If this is false information, negotiations would end, immediately. The two countries recently completed the first round of negotiations in Switzerland on Monday and have offered conflicting accounts about financial incentives for Iran, control of the Strait of Hormuz, and Israel's war in Lebanon—a major part of the framework deal signed last week aimed at ending the war. Ships have begun sailing through the Strait under a UN shipping agency scheme to evacuate vessels trapped there by the conflict.
In US Policy Concerning Israel, Senator Fetterman says, "If you have contempt for Israel, you are anti-American". THANK YOU for standing on the right side of history.
In Israeli Domestic Politics, The Jerusalem Post's must-listen news roundup, hosted by Shifra Jacobs, highlights the top stories and context. Meanwhile, the IDF announced that Chief of Staff Lieutenant-General Eyal Zamir met with leading rabbis from Hesder Yeshivot to address the controversy over a pilot program to integrate women into the IDF Tank Corps. Several prominent Hesder Yeshivot rabbis were present, but rabbis from one-third of Hesder Yeshivot who have announced a boycott of the move were not. It was unclear whether those rabbis were absent because they were not invited or because they declined. Zamir underscored the IDF's need for more soldiers from all sectors and noted that women are a critical part of the soldier pool, emphasizing his aim to ensure that women, religious Zionists, Haredim, and other sectors can serve.
Thank you for tuning in to this Israel Today: Ongoing War Report update.
