The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) has accused the Hamas terrorist organization of preventing workers who were wounded in the Hamas attack on its local staff in the Gaza Strip last night from receiving the medical treatment they need.

According to GHF, eight workers were killed and 21 seriously injured late last night when Hamas militants opened fire on a bus en route to the organization’s aid distribution sites. The incident reportedly drew a crowd, forcing the attackers to flee.

The wounded and deceased were later transported by the International Red Cross Committee to Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis. However, the GHF stated that upon arrival, Hamas operatives threatened hospital staff and barred them from treating the injured. As of 2 p.m. today, the foundation says the victims remained untreated in the hospital parking lot.

GHF also urged those holding the bodies of the deceased to release them to their families for proper burial. Despite the tragedy, the foundation affirmed that both its international and local teams remain dedicated to delivering food aid to Gazans in need.

Where is the global outcry on all of this?

The United States Department of the Treasury announced on Tuesday that its Office of Foreign Assets Control has sanctioned five individuals, and five foreign-based charities accused of funding Hamas’s military wing and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) under the guise of humanitarian aid.

The designated entities are prominent financial supporters of Hamas’s military activities, and the funds were raised under the pretense of providing humanitarian assistance in Gaza and elsewhere. A separate organization linked to the PFLP was also sanctioned.

The sanctions, issued under Executive Order 13224 as amended, target a network of fraudulent non-profit organizations that the Treasury says serve as financial fronts for terror groups.

“This action underscores the importance of safeguarding the charitable sector from abuse by terrorists like Hamas and the PFLP,” stated Deputy Secretary Michael Faulkender. He emphasized the US commitment to preventing terrorist organizations from exploiting humanitarian crises for violent ends.

We look forward the the speedy recognition of other dangerous “charitable” funders of terror and the swift imposition of sanctions on them.

US acts against sham charities backing Hamas, PFLP, by Yitz Goldberg/Israel National News, June 10, 2025

Israel’s Foreign Minister Gideon Saar has called for international help to stop Iran completing its nuclear program, after the publication of a damning report.

Speaking at a press conference last week in Berlin, Germany, Saar urged for action after the International Atomic Energy Agency detailed how Iran has been carrying out nuclear tests in secret, despite warnings not to from countries around the globe.

The paper, published on Saturday, shows that Iran’s uranium levels are now at 90% of those needed for weapons grade, and if it keeps growing at the rate it currently is, will soon be enough for nine nuclear bombs.

Additionally, investigators at the IAEA found that at three out of four sites inspected, secret tests had been carried out.

Saar’s comments echo that of a statement put out by Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu this weekend, where he said: “The international community must act now to stop Iran,” adding that Iran’s uranium levels “exist only in countries actively pursuing nuclear weapons and has no civilian justification whatsoever.”

“Act Now to Stop Iran” – Israel’s Foreign Minister Urges After Damning Report, by Crystal Jones/TPS-IL, June 5, 2025

Israeli forces intercepted and detained a boat carrying pro-Hamas activists, including Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg, as it attempted to break the Gaza blockade, Israel’s Foreign Ministry announced Monday morning. The vessel, Madleen, was boarded by Israeli Navy personnel and towed to Ashdod Port without incident.

The Foreign Ministry dismissed the Madleen as a publicity stunt, referring to the boat as a “selfie yacht” organized to “stage a media provocation.” Everyone aboard will be deported.

“The show is over,” the ministry said.

The boat carried twelve people who said they were sailing to Gaza to raise awareness and deliver humanitarian aid. Israeli officials noted that the Madleen was carrying “less than a single truckload of aid” to the Strip. After IDF forces took control of the ship Madleen overnight, Defense Minister Israel Katz directed the military to show the flotilla passengers footage of the October 7 massacre.

Showing this foe of Israel and her companions the atrocities is a good move. Whether or not the highly ill-informed puppet, Thunberg, learns important lessons about the anti-Israel rhetoric she spews remains to be seen. We’d love to know what really went through her mind watching the people she and they advocate for committing horrific crimes against innocent Israelis.

‘The Show Is Over’: Israel Intercepts Activist Boat Carrying Greta Thunberg to Gaza, by Pesach Benson/TPS-IL, June 9, 2025

A bill titled “Every Terrorist Has a Name,” introduced by Otzma Yehudit MK Yitzhak Kreuzer, mandating the publication of the names and details of terrorists released in prisoner exchanges or as part of political gestures, cleared a major hurdle toward becoming law after receiving approval from the Ministerial Legislation Committee.

The bill calls for the creation of a dedicated state-run website to publish identifying information about terrorists who are released. Under the proposed legislation, the site would include full names, photographs, details of the offenses committed, the length of prison sentences, and the circumstances surrounding each individual’s release.

Israel, like any other nation, communicates through official channels such as government statements, press releases, and international diplomacy. Information shared ranges from security threats, technological advancements, or humanitarian efforts even though these messages may not always reach or resonate with global audiences due to incorrect and conflicting narratives and biased media. Despite that, this bill is an important step in building Israel’s arsenal of mass communication on matters of truth that others refuse to see.

We applaud this effort to shed light on the atrocities perpetrated against the people of the State of Israel. Not only should all Israelis be aware of the extent of the criminal activity: the world must be able to see what kind of monsters Israel has to deal with – and set free!

‘Every Terrorist Has a Name’: Government to Publicize Identities of All Prisoners Freed in Hostage Deal, by David Israel/Jewish Press, June 4, 2025

In honor of 20 years since the Gaza pullout, JNS presents a series reflecting on disengagement, speaking with an array of former Gush Katif residents to find out how they perceive the Oct. 7 invasion, the Trump plan and the prospect of returning.

About two months into “Operation Swords of Iron,” Aviel Tucker, a former resident of Gush Katif and son of Anita Tucker, currently living in Netzer Hazani, (both dear friends of AFSI) got a call from his son, Dan, a Golani fighter who had been serving there since the start of the IDF ground offensive.

“I’m coming home,” Dan informed him.

“‘When are you coming?” Aviel asked him. “We’ll prepare for your arrival.”

“No,” his son said. “I’m coming … home.”

At that point, Aviel knew exactly what he meant. “Home” was the original Netzer Hazani, an agricultural settlement in Gush Katif where Aviel was born and raised, and which they were forced to leave on Aug. 15, 2005.

Americans for a Safe Israel remembers the senseless destruction of the beautiful Jewish community of Gush Katif. The expulsion from Gush Katif almost 20 years ago was a tremendous mistake, and even worse, an incomprehensible human tragedy. Never again should any Jewish community in Judea, Samaria or anywhere in Israel be expelled from their land for any reason but certainly to be used as a pilot program to test the potential for peace. It has been tested and the result is a complete FAIL!

20 years since disengagement: How former Gush Katif residents are re-engaging with Gaza, by Orit Arfa/JNS, May 29, 2025

Last week, the political-security cabinet quietly approved the establishment of 22 new communities in Judea and Samaria, including the re-establishment of Homesh and Sa-Nur.

It was established that the Palestinian Authority’s land registration procedures in Area C are being conducted without legal authority. Consequently, any resulting documents, maps, records, or approvals will hold no legal or official status within the State of Israel. Furthermore, the security establishment has been instructed to actively prevent these efforts by restricting the entry of personnel into the area, halting foreign aid directed toward the Palestinian land initiatives, and formally demanding that the Palestinian Authority cease its activities in the region.

The Regavim Movement applauded the Cabinet’s decision on land registration in Judea and Samaria, stating:

“This resolution represents a pivotal advancement in addressing a longstanding challenge. For years, Israel stood idle while the Palestinian Authority aggressively pursued land registration, deploying hundreds of workers and funneling millions of dollars from international sources.” Regavim praised “Defense Minister Israel Katz, Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich, and our esteemed partners, for their resolute leadership in advancing this critical initiative to safeguard our territorial integrity and our land and secure our collective future.”

We look forward to seeing these approvals turned into real change on the ground and the decisions on land registration policy turned into action to correct the illegal actions that have been taken on a massive scale all over Area C.

Israel Approves 22 New Settlements, Boosting Contiguous Jewish Presence in Judea and Samaria, by David Israel/Jewish Press, May 28, 2025

Israel’s Defense Ministry disclosed Wednesday that the country achieved a historic military breakthrough during the Iron Swords war, successfully using advanced laser systems to intercept dozens of targets in the technology’s first operational deployment. The revelation ends more than 18 months of secrecy surrounding what defense officials describe as a revolutionary advancement in aerial defense capabilities.

“There’s a feeling of history, of pioneering spirit. This represents a breakthrough process worldwide, but we’re not getting too intoxicated with success,” said Major G. (39), who heads the laser division in the Israeli Air Force. “I relate with the chief of staff’s statement – actions will speak louder than words. This achievement fills us with tremendous pride – but our focus remains forward, on the threats we face.”

The disclosure of Israel’s operational deployment of laser-based defense systems marks a turning point in modern military technology. This achievement not only showcases Israel’s commitment to pioneering innovation in national defense but also sets a new global standard in aerial threat interception. As the Israeli Air Force continues to pursue every available tool to safeguard the nation, the successful use of laser systems demonstrates the country’s readiness to lead in next-generation defense capabilities.

Israeli security forces conducted a second consecutive day of operations targeting terror-linked funds across Judea and Samaria, seizing over NIS 7 million (nearly $2 million) and arresting 30 wanted individuals, the Israel Defense Forces said on Wednesday.

Forces confiscated cash in various currencies, including hundreds of thousands of shekels, tens of thousands of U.S. dollars and Jordanian dinars, thousands of euros, and gold valued at roughly $1.75 million.

The idea that if Israel stops funding it can stop terrorism oversimplifies a complex issue. Terrorist groups often rely on diverse revenue streams—some illicit, like drug trafficking or extortion, and others legitimate, like donations or business profits. Stopping funding can hurt terrorist groups, but it’s not a silver bullet. Comprehensive strategies—combining military, diplomatic, and social measures—are needed to address root causes. Still, the IDF’s actions are a mandatory step in putting a dent in the problem.

Israeli Forces Continue Crackdown on Palestinian Terror Funding, by Ehud Amiton/TPS-IL, May 28, 2025

The Yesha Council umbrella group of Judea and Samaria communities has launched a campaign calling on Israel’s government to extend sovereignty over the area to prevent another terrorist massacre.

As part of the campaign, the group, which represents some 500,000 Jews living in Judea, Samaria and the Jordan Valley, released a video illustrating the danger posed by Palestinian terrorist organizations in the territory.

The minute-long clip depicts terrorists breaking through the security fence in northern Samaria with pick-up trucks and motorcycles and driving toward the Israeli city of Kfar Saba, abducting hostages to the Palestinian terror hub of Tulkarem, firing an RPG at Ben-Gurion Airport and attacking Israelis from Afula to Beersheva.

“It’s either Israeli sovereignty or the seventh of October in the center of the country.” the video states. “Judea and Samaria, the defensive shield of Israel,” the clip concludes.

Sovereignty over Judea and Samaria will serve as the protective defensive shield Israel has a legal right to rather than what the ill-informed see as it being a tool for Israel’s aggression. Sovereignty will help prevent Judea and Samaria from being used as a staging ground for future terror attacks. It does not seek to prevent not provoke conflict. When it comes to the application of sovereignty over Judea and Samaria there is no broader context in which to argue. The truth about sovereignty is straight forward.

AFSI prays that the Israeli government will find the will to declare sovereignty over Judea, Samaria and the Jordan Valley before France, the United Kingdom and any others recognize a Palestinian state next month. Israel has the biblical, historical and legal rights to its heartland and we fervently wish it will exercise these rights now.
