RT Israel: 70 years ago, on November 29th, 1947, 33 countries said YES at the UN , and voted for #Israel's independence. Today, all of us in 🇮🇱 just want to say - #ThankYou🙏 for your support! #UNVotesIsrael

For over 680 days our loved ones have been held hostage by Hamas terrorists in the tunnels of Gaza. This is a crime against humanity and it must be stopped. Bring them home. 🎗️

Seeing images from Gaza over recent days, of fellow human beings enduring terrible suffering, we cannot but be moved and feel the need to respond to their pain. While Hamas’ persistent disinformation and cynical use of civilians make it difficult to distinguish truth from falsehood, it is abundantly clear that the children of Gaza deserve responsible leadership and a much better future. If Hamas had shown even the slightest concern for human life and dignity, agreed to internationally brokered hostage deals, or cared for the basic wellbeing of the Gazan population, this war would have been over long ago. Indeed, they would never have started it. To bring an end to the intolerable pain of this conflict, we must not embolden or reward Hamas. Those who wish to see an end to this suffering must bring the maximum pressure to bear on Hamas, to release the hostages immediately, enable the free distribution of aid, end the suffering and allow the entire region to move towards a chance for genuine security and peace. I would encourage all who are looking for a secure and tangible way to contribute to the aid effort, to support the work of World Jewish Relief, which is working with trusted humanitarian partners in coordination with Israeli authorities to this end: worldjewishrelief.org/blog/2025/07/1…

Look at each and every one of them. We won’t rest until every last hostage is home.

This is your daily reminder. Don’t stop talking about the Bibas family.

Reunited ❤️🎗️ We've been waiting for this moment for 477 days.

Reunited at last.

After 471 horrific days in captivity, Emily, Doron and Romi are finally reunited with their families. This is a moment we will never ever forget.

We pray for all of them to finally return home 🎗️

GRAPHIC FOOTAGE WARNING: There’s a lot of talk about the potential hostage deal and ceasefire in Gaza, but don’t for a second forget how this war began. On October 7th, thousands of Hamas terrorists crossed into Israel, gunned down young Israelis at a music festival, and went house to house—burning families alive, raping, mutilating, and kidnapping over 250 people, including Holocaust survivors, children, and teens. Never forget.

Hamas kidnapped a Muslim-Bedouin father of eleven and held him captive in a tunnel for 326 days. Today he was rescued by the IDF and reunited with his family. Welcome home Farhan 💙

Iran is fueling terror and instability both in the region and beyond through its proxies in Lebanon, Yemen, Iraq, Syria, and Gaza. In Gaza, the IDF is actively countering the Iranian proxy Hamas, with the objective of dismantling this terrorist organization and putting an end to its reign of terror. Iran poses a direct threat to Israel, the region, and democracies worldwide. Now is the time for the international community to take action against Iran and its proxies, before it’s too late.

Tisha B’av is the saddest day of the Jewish year, commemorating the destruction of both Jewish Temples. As I begin fasting for just 24 hours, I can’t stop thinking about the more than 100 Jewish hostages who have been starved, beaten and tortured for more than 300 days. Their souls are being destroyed every day.

Hostage Square in Tel Aviv, tonight, the eve of Tisha B'Av. "Hear my prayer, O Lord, and let my cry come unto thee" - Tefila LeAni, from Psalm 102.

Your daily reminder.

This is the reason we are fighting this war. Welcome home Noa, Shlomi, Almog and Andrey.

In memory of 6 million men, women and children who were murdered just because they were Jewish. To commemorate the Holocaust and its victims, we must speak out against antisemitism today. In the face of darkness, be the light. #NeverForget #YomHaShoah

This Yom Hashoah is particularly painful. Moshe Ridler should have been with us this Yom Hashoah. He was a 91 year old Holocaust survivor who was murdered by Hamas on October 7. His family was murdered for being Jewish. He was murdered for being Jewish 80 years later.

Today, Iran launched a swarm of 185 killer drones, 110 surface to surface missiles, and 36 cruise missiles at Israel, putting the whole country and entire region on lockdown. This was the first time Iran launches a direct attack against Israel from its own soil. But for decades, Iran has been building a ring of terror around Israel’s borders. This is called Iran’s terror proxy network, which includes Jihadi terrorist groups like Hamas in Gaza, Hezbollah in Lebanon, the Houthis in Yemen, and other armed militias in Syria and Iraq. Iran’s multi-front war against Israel has been going on for decades. And the October 7th massacre was just a part of this larger war. Yet brainwashed so called activists around the world are trying to defend this attack against Israel and say that it was justified. They claim that Israel deserved this attack for eliminating Iran’s most senior military figure in Syria, Mohammad Reza Zahedi, who was involved in the planning of the October 7th massacre. However this attack was not an isolated event. It is a part of Iran’s on-going campaign to wipe Israel off the map and destabilize the Middle East in order to create a new power dynamic in the region. Thanks to Israel’s incredible air defense systems, and her American and EU allies, the vast majority of the projectiles were intercepted before reaching Israel, resulting in limited damage. Yet Iran’s endless support of terrorism not only threatens Israel, but also threatens global security. From Gaza to Lebanon, Yemen to Syria, Iran’s fingerprints are evident in countless conflicts. It’s time to dismantle Iran’s terror networks and hold the regime accountable for its relentless pursuit of violence. And only then can we hope to see a safer, more peaceful world for future generations.
