🎥 Watch: youtu.be/7z9uivW2n0g 🛑 Exclusive Interview with the President of Israel - On this edition of Special Briefing from StandWithUs: Ask the President You asked. The President answered. In this exclusive conversation, President Isaac Herzog joins StandWithUs Israel Executive Director, Michael Dickson to respond directly to your questions about the conflict with the regime in Iran and the key issues facing Israel today. Recorded at the President's Residence in Jerusalem.

Following a productive meeting between the Israel Police and Latin Catholic Cardinal Pierbattista Pizzaballa, a mutual framework has been established for upcoming Easter ceremonies. Due to the complex security reality of Operation “Roaring Lion,” ceremonies including the “Holy Fire” will be held in a symbolic, limited format. This coordination ensures that freedom of worship is maintained alongside our shared, primary duty: the protection of human life. In the past few weeks, Iranian missiles and debris have impacted within the Old City. These life-saving restrictions are a direct response to a real and present danger to all worshippers

*Police Spokesperson’s Unit:* _The Israel Police approved a prayer framework at the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, in coordination with a representative of the Latin Patriarch._ During a situational assessment held this evening by the Jerusalem District Commander, Deputy Commissioner Avshalom Peled, together with the Commander of the David Sub-District, Commander Dvir Tamim, and in coordination with a representative of the Latin Patriarch, a limited prayer framework was approved in order to enable freedom of worship for all Christian denominations at the Church of the Holy Sepulchre. The police clarified that restrictions at holy sites without standard protected spaces, including the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, stem from Home Front Command directives and are intended to safeguard worshippers. It should be noted that both the Western Wall Plaza and the Temple Mount complex are also closed to worshippers, due to concerns for public safety. Iranian regime missiles do not distinguish between religion or background, and the Iranian regime continues to launch missiles toward populated areas and holy sites.

Israel will always be committed to preserving freedom of worship for all faiths in Jerusalem, even as the Iranian regime actively endangers the lives of Christians, Muslims, and Jews alike.

Since the beginning of the operation against the Iranian regime, and in accordance with directives issued by Israel’s Home Front Command, holy sites in the Old City of Jerusalem have been closed to worshippers of ALL faiths. The emphasis is on locations that do not have standard protected spaces, with the aim of safeguarding public safety and security.

Make no mistake: Ali Hassan Shaib was a Hezbollah terrorist eliminated by the IDF in Lebanon. Do not be misled by the “journalist” narrative.

Months before his release after more than two years in Hamas captivity in Gaza, Bar Kupershtein received a notebook and pen and began writing. He documented the October 7, 2023 Hamas massacre, the brutal conditions of his imprisonment in Gaza, and his life story. After his release, Kupershtein reconstructed everything from memory and transformed it into a powerful memoir, which he presented today to Israel’s President Herzog and the First Lady during a visit with his family to the President’s Residence. The book stands as both a personal testimony and an essential piece of Israel’s national story from the war. @Isaac_Herzog Via: President of Israel Isaac Herzog
