The IRGC is now where it belongs: On the EU's terror list next to its proxies Hamas and the military wing of Hezbollah. We applaud the @EUCouncil for taking this important step and call on it to list Hezbollah in its entirety. consilium.europa.eu/en/press/press…

Belgium’s ban on Israeli settlement goods isn’t policy - it's an unjustified political sanction. A direct, one-sided measure against Israel - a democratic state - that undermines dialogue and replaces engagement with empty symbolism. It hurts, divides, and achieves nothing. timesofisrael.com/liveblog_entry…

A form to identify Jewish tourists in Milan should trigger immediate investigation and accountability. Antisemitism in Italy and in Europe is reaching levels not seen since World War II. Authorities must act now. en.lasicilia.it/news/italy-wor…

14 years ago, the Iranian regime's terror proxy, Hezbollah, murdered five Israelis and one Bulgarian in Burgas. We solemnly remember the victims and call on the EU to once and for all designate Hezbollah as a terrorist organization in its entirety.

Serious attacks by extremist Israelis against Palestinians in the West Bank have fallen by 25% following intensified enforcement by the IDF, Shin Bet, and Israel Police. Arrests, administrative restrictions, and coordinated security measures demonstrate that Israel is confronting this challenge through the rule of law and accountable democratic institutions. A strong democracy is not defined by the absence of problems, but by its determination to address them and hold offenders accountable. jpost.com/israel-news/ar…

Israel continues to stand out in the region for its commitment to respect, tolerance, and freedom of worship for Jews, Christians, and Muslims alike. We welcome the appointment of George Deek as Special Envoy to the Christian World - a powerful step forward. As Israel prepares for the 2,000th anniversary of Jesus’ baptism in 2030, this moment underscores a genuine commitment to deepening interfaith dialogue, strengthening ties with Christian communities, and honoring the shared heritage that unites billions worldwide. gov.il/en/pages/israe…

And while plotting the massacres, the chief terrorist Yahya Sinwar built the cover story: "Returning Home," dressed as a humanitarian movement, ready to push in every language, to every newsroom, before a single shot was fired.

🧵 10,000 terrorists. 25 breach points. 221 kibbutzim marked for slaughter. This is not our summary - this is Hamas's own plan, in Yahya Sinwar's handwriting, written over a year before the Oct. 7 terrorist attacks.

Belgian MP and TFI Member @MichaelFreilich warns that rising antisemitism and growing polarisation are leaving many Jews questioning their future in Belgium: “Are we still welcome here?” Antisemitism has no place in Belgium - or anywhere in Europe. Protecting Jewish life is not only a Jewish issue; it is a democratic imperative. ‌ 21news.be/michael-freili…

We stand in solidarity with UK Chief Rabbi Sir Ephraim Mirvis and the Board of Deputies of British Jews as they confront the Church of England's shameful decision to encourage its members to engage with a Palestinian Christian document that accuses Israel of genocide.

"The Jedwabne Pogrom is a warning of what can happen when we allow antisemitism and hate to go unchallenged." — Agnieszka Markiewicz, Director of @AJC_CE In @JNS_org, Agnieszka reflects on the 85th anniversary of the Jedwabne massacre, the growing efforts to distort the historical record, and why preserving Holocaust memory remains essential. As attempts to deny and rewrite the past continue, we must remain steadfast in confronting antisemitism, defending historical truth, and honoring the victims. jns.org/news/world/pol…

We welcome today’s decision by the United Kingdom to designate the Iranian regime’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps as a threat to national security. AJC has tirelessly advocated for UK government action to counter the IRGC. This new policy is an important step to address the regime's malign activities and weaken its ability to spread terror and instability. Read our full statement: ajc.org/news/ajc-welco…

Today, we remember at least 340 Jewish men, women, and children who were burned alive in a barn 85 years ago in Jedwabne, Poland. As confirmed by Poland’s own Institute of National Remembrance, this horrific crime was carried out by the victims’ Polish neighbors, incited by the occupying Nazi German forces. Yet in recent years, far-right extremists have sought to deny these facts. Today, AJC stood with the Polish Jewish community to honor the victims and confront that hate—alongside Minister Wojciech Kolarski (@wkolarski) and Professor Grzegorz Berendt, representing the President of Poland (@NawrockiKn), Speaker of Parliament (@WlodekCzarzasty), Speaker of the Senate (@M_K_Blonska), Members of Parliament, Israeli Ambassador (@Yaakov_FINKLSTN), and diplomats from around the world. The movement to deny these crimes is yet another example of why Poland must adopt a national strategy to combat antisemitism. Democratic Poland has already done the difficult work of officially recognizing what happened on July 10, 1941. Now, just as the government confronted this painful chapter of its past, it is imperative that it act against those who deny and distort history and spread antisemitism. ajc.org/news/ajc-comme…
