Poll: Netanyahu surges as Bennett loses ground

For the first time in a long while - and against the backdrop of the ongoing war with Iran - Likud has regained its position as Israel’s largest political party, according to a Channel 13 News poll published Wednesday.

If elections were held today, the poll shows Likud would secure 27 seats, while a party led by Naftali Bennett would win 24. Yisrael Beytenu and the Democrats would each receive 11 seats, Shas 10, Yesh Atid 7, National Unity 7, United Torah Judaism 7, Otzma Yehudit 6, Hadash-Ta’al 6, and Ra’am 4.

In this poll, the Religious Zionist Party fails to pass the electoral threshold.

The survey also found that a strong majority of the public (75%) supports going to war with Iran, while only 17% oppose it. Another 8% remain undecided.

When asked about Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s motivations, 64% of respondents said they believe the primary reason for the military campaign was a genuine desire to eliminate Iran’s nuclear and ballistic missile threat. Meanwhile, 28% believe political considerations were the main driver.

 The IDF identified on Thursday morning at 7:03 a.m. that between 20 and 30 missiles were launched from Iran toward Israeli territory.

This is the largest barrage launched from Iran in the past 48 hours. There are reports of at least seven impact sites, including three in Gush Dan and one at Soroka Hospital in Be'er Sheva, which sustained a direct hit.

So far, 23 individuals have been reported injured across all impact sites.

A spokesperson for Soroka said: "There has been damage to the hospital and extensive damage in various areas. We are currently assessing the damages, including the injured."

"We ask that people avoid coming to the hospital at this time. We will provide further updates shortly."

Rescue services have checked reports of dangerous chemical leaks in the hospital region and have confirmed there is no further concern.

Fire and Rescue Services - Southern District reported: "As of 07:43, a medical facility has been hit. Fire and Rescue teams are working on-site to rescue people trapped in an elevator. Further updates will follow."

At an impact site in Holon, two people were severely injured, one moderately injured, and four were lightly injured. All were evacuated for treatment. Some of the buildings affected are considered in danger of collapse.

Channel 12 News reported that 26 casualties were evacuated to Wolfson, Beilinson, Sheba, and Ichilov hospitals. Among them are two in serious condition, and one in moderate condition; the others sustained light injuries. There is concern that some people may be trapped at impact sites in central Israel.

A Magen David Adom (MDA) spokesperson said, "Following the sirens that were sounded in recent minutes, MDA teams have deployed to search areas where reports were received."

Upon receiving an alert, the public is instructed to enter a protected space and remain there until further notice.

Leaving the protected space is only permitted following an explicit directive. Continue to follow the instructions of the Home Front Command.

A Special Day... 23 of Sivan

 

ויקראו סופרי המלך בעת ההיא בחודש השלישי

הוא חודש סיון בשלשה ועשרים יום בו אסתר ח:ט

from EMAILIM BATORAH

The Lubavitcher Rebbe R. M.M. Schneerson ZT"L said

"The 23rd day of Sivan marked the beginning of the

downfall of the שונאי ישראל and the start of all the ישועות

mentioned in the פסוקים of the מגילה,

up to & including  --ליהודים היתה אורה ושמחה וששון ויקר".

The Rebbe continued, "Since the Torah is נצחי (eternal) 

therefore, this date is also eternal, and every year on

the 23rd day of Sivan is מסוגל for the immediate start

of the מפלתן של שונאי ישראל and the beginning of all

the ישועות to כלל ישראל"

יהי רצון

The collapse of the Persian Empire started 2,500 years ago on  כ"ג סיון should finally culminate this כ"ג סיון with the total destruction & surrender of The Iranian Regime ימ"ש,

Free Palestine 

The entire world (including Palestine) will be free from all our רשעים cousins & all of their sympathizers. (Jews & nonJews)

אחינו כל בית ישראל הנתונים בצרה ובשביה
will be freed from their misery.

WOW! Please READ THIS: Israel is essentially inviting Iranian citizens to contact the Mossad directly

and is also giving them the address to do so. The IDF Spokesperson's extraordinary message in Persian to Iranian citizens:

“Dear Iranian citizens, we understand your difficult situation. In recent days, we have

received many messages from people who fear for the future, even those who identify

as members of the regime's security forces, expressing fear and despair and asking us

to contact the Israeli authorities. We are not the appropriate address for such inquiries.

We can direct you to the Mossad website at https://mossad.gov.il/fa/contact-us.

Perhaps there you will find a new way to improve your future.
