Direct Iranian Hit on Bnei Brak Injuries
A cluster missile launched from Iran struck several locations in the city of Bnei Brak this afternoon (Sunday), causing damage to buildings.
At one of the sites, the missile hit the third floor of a building and caused damage to the structure.
MDA medical teams provided treatment to a man in his 60s who was moderately injured by glass shards to his head. The injured man was evacuated to Ichilov Hospital for further treatment.
MDA emergency medic Moshe Weinman said: “We arrived at an impact site with damage to the building. Broken glass on the floor, smoke, and chaos. We treated one patient in moderate condition, a man in his 60s with wounds from glass shards. We are operating with large forces at the scene and continuing searches to ensure there are no additional casualties."
Shortly before that, sirens were activated in a series of communities across central Israel following missile launches from Iran. Alerts were sounded in the Dan region, Samaria, the Shefela, Sharon, Yarkon, and Lachish.
MDA teams treated two men in their 50s who were lightly injured at impact sites in Tel Aviv. According to police, several bomblets from a cluster missile fell during the launch, causing damage at multiple locations in the city.
Police also released footage of the missile impact in Tel Aviv. The footage shows that at one of the sites civilians were present who had not entered a protected space, and one of the missile’s submunitions landed near them. As a result, two civilians were lightly injured.
Police emphasized that the incident demonstrates the importance of following the instructions of the Home Front Command. According to them, “In an emergency we must demonstrate civilian discipline and take shelter." They added that in this case the injuries were minor, but the incident could have ended with much more severe consequences.

Iran-Linked Hackers Target Chabad, Posing as Stranded Jews Seeking Shabbos Meals https://t.co/dzVtX6NiQE via @Jewdition
Who is this Mordecha Hersh Spitzer???
He is ranting against the crazy modern music at weddings! Encourages the guests to stop it even it will disrupt the wedding! He is ok with spoiling a simchas Chassan Ve'Kallah with violence!
Personally, I'm also against this latest craze, so I walk out and go home, but for a rabbi to encourage what will ultimately be violence at a Simcha??
But that's not why I posted this insane lunatic!
He asks .....listen carefully to this lunatic! ....
He asks while encouraging the attendees to commit violence at the simcha ...
"If the Chasan should be a "lowlife" and tell the caterer that he can serve OU Meat at his wedding" would that be ok?"
What insanity??? You don't want to eat OU fine! But to denigrate a reliable hechsher to justify your agenda?
Degrading a hypothetical chasan that wants to serve OU at his simcha is a "Lowlife?"
This guy needs to be institutionalized, if the catering is OU and it is posted for all to see why does that make him a "Lowlife?"
I go to many events that I don't find the Kashrut up to par with my standards, so I don't eat, period!
All major Kashrut scandals in the last decade came only from heimishe hashgachas!
PS. Can someone tell his rebbetzin למען השם to serve him a salad!!?
New York Times : The synagogue attacker who tried to murder 140 Jewish children was "a quiet restaurant worker"
Now listen to this meshigenir
In this clip, Angelina McCahey tries to justify the Michigan synagogue terror attack by claiming it was an “Israeli temple.”
No. It was a Jewish temple.
The armed man who smashed his truck through the doors of the Temple Israel synagogue and preschool in West Bloomfield, near Detroit. He was from Lebanon, and his brothers who were recently killed in an Israeli strike were Hezbollah fighters.
When confronted on X, Angelina responded, “the question posed was could this attack be connected to Israel war, was it a strategic target? Is this synagogue unique compared to others? The answer is yes.”
Wrong again, Angelina. For the record, absolutely nothing that happens overseas justifies ramming your vehicle into a Jewish preschool
Report about interceptor shortage is false
Security officials say reports claiming Israel is running out of missile interceptors are incorrect.According to the defense establishment, Israel has sufficient interceptors for all air defense systems, including for a prolonged period.

Bill Maher calls out Gov. Josh Shapiro on Iran war criticism: ‘You would still do nothing?’
Comedian Bill Maher pressed Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro on Friday over his opposition to U.S. involvement in Iran, challenging the Democrat on what he would do if he were commander-in-chief and had been given knowledge that Iran would soon have nuclear weapons.
“Our chief negotiator said they were talking to Iran up until the war started. He said their opening salvo at the negotiations, ‘We’re a couple of weeks away from having 11 bombs.’” Maher said during the latest installment of “Real Time.”
“If you were the president, and you got that information, you would still do nothing?”
Shapiro quickly rejected the notion.
“No. What I would do, and what the President of the United States failed to do, was be clear with the American people about what the hell we were doing here,” he said.
“Was the plan to go after the nuclear weapons? The weapons, by the way, he said were destroyed… seven months ago. Was the plan to go and do regime change? In which case, who the hell is going to take over? I don’t think the son [Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei] is any better than the father. Was the plan to go in there later, but you got forced because Netanyahu forced your hand?”
“I think if you don’t have clarity about why you’re going in, you have no way of knowing how the hell to get out,” he added, his remarks met with applause.
Maher also pushed back on the Pennsylvania Democrat’s suggestion that the rationale for the war remains unclear.
“We’ve lost 13 American soldiers in a war that the American people and, by the way, most of the global community, has no idea why the hell we went there in the first place,” Shapiro said.
“I think people have an idea,” Maher countered.
“What was the reason we went in?” Shapiro asked.
“Everything you said – the nukes, regime change, and just to reshuffle the deck in the Middle East. Nothing ever really was going to get better until that regime went away,” Maher replied, prompting chuckles from the audience.
Maher then added, “But we’ll see what happens.”
Shapiro noted that he was morally opposed to the Iranian regime’s actions that placed Americans in harm’s way, stating that he never viewed the late Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei as a “good person” and that he is “not shedding a tear” for regime members who were killed.
[The ayatollah] chanted, for five decades, ‘Death to America.’” These are people who blew up and killed Americans. These are not good people…” he said.
“What I am saying, though, is, if you are the commander-in-chief, you have a responsibility to the people you send into harm’s way, a responsibility to the American people to explain why it is you’re doing what you’re doing and how the hell you get out of it once the mission is accomplished…
“The president has yet to look the American people in the eye and explain that, and that is a failure of leadership,” he added.
Fox News Digital reached out to the White House for comment on Shapiro’s statements but did not immediately hear back.

Senior Iranian intelligence officials eliminated
On Friday, the Israeli Air Force, acting on precise IDF intelligence, carried out a targeted strike in Tehran and eliminated Abdollah Jalali-Nasab and Amir Shariat, senior officials in the Intelligence Directorate of the “Khatam al-Anbiya" Emergency Command, which is directly subordinate to the leader of the Iranian terror regime.
Following the elimination of the head of the Intelligence Directorate, Saleh Asadi, during the opening blow of Operation Roaring Lion, Jalali and Shariat were appointed to replace them. The two senior intelligence commanders were key figures in the Iranian intelligence community.
In addition, both were close to the leadership of the Iranian terrorist regime.
"The intelligence branch of the 'Khatam al-Anbiya' Emergency Command is responsible for analyzing intelligence," the IDF said. "The intelligence is presented to senior officials in Iran’s security system during frequent situational assessments, on the basis of which the war against the State of Israel is conducted."
"Their elimination adds to dozens of senior commanders of the terrorist regime who have been eliminated during the course of Operation Roaring Lion and constitutes another significant blow to the regime’s command-and-control structures and its ability to manage the fighting in a coordinated manner.
"The IDF will continue to act with determination against commanders of the Iranian terrorist regime wherever necessary."

A survivor and witness to the atrocities of the Oct. 7, 2023 Hamas massacre in Israel delivered a blistering broadside to Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s wife after she “liked” a social media post claiming the rapes of Israelis during the terror rampage were a “mass hoax.”
“My message to Mrs. Mamdani is simple: political narratives should never cloud your judgment when it comes to the facts of October 7th. Real people suffered, were raped and were killed,” Tali Biner told The Post Friday from a bomb shelter in Israel.
“I was there.”
U.S. Offers Up to $10 Million Reward for Information on Iranian Leadership
The United States government is offering a reward of up to $10 million for information on senior Iranian leaders, including the country’s new Supreme Leader, Mojtaba Khamenei.
The bounty was announced through the State Department’s Rewards for Justice program as the U.S. and Israel continue their military campaign against Iran following the deaths of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and several top regime officials.
According to the notice, U.S. authorities are seeking information on Mojtaba Khamenei and several key figures within Iran’s leadership structure. Those listed include his deputy chief of staff, Ali Asghar Hejazi; military adviser Maj. Gen. Yahya Rahim Safavi; adviser Ali Larijani; Interior Minister Brig. Gen. Eskandar Momeni; and Minister of Intelligence and Security Esmail Khatib.
The reward announcement also seeks information about four additional officials connected to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), whose identities were not publicly disclosed. These positions include the Secretary of the Defense Council, an adviser to the Supreme Leader, the chief of the military office within the Supreme Leader’s office, and the commander of the IRGC.
“These individuals command and direct various elements of the IRGC, which plans, organizes, and executes terrorism around the world,” the notice said.
Officials added that since its founding in 1979, the IRGC has played a central role in executing Iran’s foreign policy and has grown into a powerful force controlling large portions of the country’s economy while exerting significant influence over domestic politics.
In a related announcement posted on X, the State Department said individuals who provide credible information could be “eligible for relocation,” in addition to receiving the potential financial reward.

Iran now Targeting Arab Cities in Israel ...58 injured in direct hit in Zarzir
Within about an hour, sirens were activated three times across northern Israel early Friday morning following launches from Iran.
Most of the launches were intercepted and the rest fell in open areas.
In one of the barrages, there was a direct hit on three buildings in Zarzir, causing damage to the buildings.
Magen David Adom EMTs and paramedics provided medical treatment and evacuated 58 patients to hospitals in northern Israel, including one in moderate condition and 57 in very mild condition from glass shards, with minor injuries.
Additional MDA teams provided medical treatment and evacuated 15 people suffering from anxiety symptoms from the scene to hospitals.
New York’s Charedi Community: "Security Is Our Responsibility"
From a reader:
Fascinating. So let me get this straight – per the author, it’s perfectly fine – even laudable – to make security arrangements for Frum institutions in the US. However – per Chareidi theology, it is absolutely, totally, 100% assur to send their members to defend the lives of their fellow Jews in Israel via the IDF.
What’s wrong with this picture??By Joseph Feldman
Thursday’s attack at Temple Israel in West Bloomfield, Michigan, should send shockwaves through the Jewish world—especially the Charedi community in New York.
A car crashed into the synagogue and authorities feared an active shooter situation. It could have ended in a massacre.
It didn’t.
Oakland County Sheriff Michael Bouchard made clear why: the synagogue had armed security on site. Those guards engaged the attacker and neutralized him. Miraculously, no congregants were killed. One security guard was injured by the vehicle, but the only person who died was the suspect.
That armed guard prevented what could have been a mass-casualty attack.
So here is the uncomfortable truth: too many Jewish institutions in New York—especially in the Charedi community—are still operating as if we live in a different era.
For years, the community has begged government for security funding, grants, and police protection. Those programs help, but let’s be honest: expecting the government to guard every yeshiva, every synagogue, every daycare, every community building in Brooklyn, Queens, and beyond is fantasy.
It’s time to stop pretending otherwise.
We live in a new reality. Jewish institutions are obvious targets. Antisemitism today is louder, bolder, and sometimes violent. Pretending that a police patrol somewhere in the neighborhood is enough protection is not security—it’s wishful thinking.
And yet, unbelievably, you can still walk into many Jewish schools and synagogues in New York with little to no real security presence.
That is unacceptable.
Parents should start demanding answers from the schools where they send their children. Congregants should demand answers from the synagogues where they pray. If an institution can raise millions for buildings and expansions, it can raise the money for trained, professional, armed security.
Enough excuses.
Every synagogue. Every yeshiva. Every Jewish school should have trained armed guards at the entrance. Not volunteers. Not someone casually watching the door. Real, professional security.
The proof is in West Bloomfield. When the attack came, the armed guard didn’t wait for police to arrive. He was already there. And because he was, lives were saved.
So here is the message to the Charedi community in New York: wake up.
Stop assuming someone else will protect us. Stop relying on government programs as the primary solution.
Start demanding security from the institutions you attend.
Because in the world we live in today, Jewish security is not optional. It’s survival.
Yes, ultimately our protection comes from Hashem. But faith does not mean standing idle. We must do our hishtadlus—our part—by taking real, responsible steps to protect our communities.
As the pasuk reminds us: “Im Hashem lo yishmor ir, shav shakad shomer.” If Hashem does not guard the city, the watchman stands guard in vain. But that does not mean we abandon the watchman—it means we do our part, and place our trust in Hashem to do the rest.
17-Year-Old Killed In Road Accident While Running To Shelter During Siren
A horrific tragedy occurred on Thursday evening in Rehovot: a 17-year-old girl was killed after being struck by a private vehicle on Menachem Begin Street in Rehovot, near the Rehovot Science Park. According to eyewitness accounts, the accident occurred during a siren, when the teenager was running toward a protected shelter.
At 21:42, a report was received at the emergency dispatch center of Magen David Adom in the Ayalon region about a pedestrian who had been hit by a car. MDA teams that arrived at the scene found the girl suffering from severe multi-system trauma.
Paramedics from MDA performed medical examinations at the scene, but tragically had to pronounce her dead at the location.
MDA paramedic Shila Alfasi said: “We saw the girl lying on the road unconscious and suffering from severe multi-system injuries. We were told she had been hit by a car. We carried out medical examinations, but she had no signs of life and we had no choice but to pronounce her dead.”
Volunteers from United Hatzalah who also arrived at the scene reported that this was a fatal accident involving a young pedestrian.
Yosef Haim Maluka, a United Hatzalah medic who was among the first to arrive, said: “We were told at the scene that a pedestrian had been struck by a private vehicle. Passersby said that while she was on her way to a protected area because of the sirens, she was hit by the car. Unfortunately, her death was determined at the scene due to the severe nature of her injuries.”
Israel Police later stated that traffic investigators from the Central District have opened an investigation into the circumstances of the fatal accident.
Police said the accident occurred in the Science Park area of Rehovot, and involved a private vehicle and a pedestrian. Medical officials confirmed the girl’s death at the scene, and the circumstances of the incident are currently under investigation.
