AFI's Mission: to represent Israel’s interests in US through new media; to educate & empower pro-Israel activists; to strengthen ties between Israel & World.
The U.S. Air Force continues to execute a high volume of airstrikes into Iran. The two most powerful air forces in the world (🇺🇸+🇮🇱) are dominating the skies over the world’s largest state sponsor of terror.
⭕️The IDF dismantled dozens of assets belonging to the Iranian regime’s ballistic missile array, including missile launchers & defense systems deployed in the area that constituted a threat to the Israeli Air Force’s aircraft.
Breaking:‼️
Iran intentionally fired missiles that contained cluster sub-munitions at a densely populated civilian area in Israel. Cluster weapons are designed to disperse over a large area and maximize the chances of a harmful strike. Iran goes to great lengths in trying to maximize harm to Israeli civilians.
Directing attacks at civilians is a war crime. We will continue to operate to protect Israel in accordance with international law.
📍UPDATE:
In accordance with the ceasefire agreement and a directive of the political echelon, the Rafah Crossing will open in the coming days exclusively for the exit of residents from the Gaza Strip to Egypt.
The residents' exit through the Rafah Crossing will be facilitated through coordination with Egypt, following security approval by Israel and under the supervision of the European Union mission, similar to the mechanism that operated in January 2025.

Palestinian terror against Israelis continues amid global silence.
This week alone:
-Highway 5 attack - iron rod thrown at a civilian vehicle.
-Car-ramming in Kiryat Arba - a female soldier wounded.
-Stabbing in Ateret - two IDF soldiers injured today.
Violence should be condemned - not ignored.

We were sorry to hear the response from the Hamas flotilla. We say again: if your intentions are sincere, transfer any aid you might have to the nearby Ashkelon Marina so it can be forwarded to Gaza in a peaceful manner.
In response to the statement of the U.K. and some other countries regarding the recognition of a Palestinian state:
Israel categorically rejects the one-sided declaration of the recognition of a Palestinian state made by the United Kingdom and some other countries.
This declaration does not promote peace, but on the contrary - further destabilizes the region and undermines the chances of achieving a peaceful solution in the future.
Called by Hamas leaders “the fruits of the October 7 massacre”, the declaration not only rewards the biggest massacre of Jews since the Holocaust by a terror organization that is calling and acting for the annihilation of Israel, but also solidifies the support Hamas enjoys.
It is destructive to separate statehood – one of the final status issues – from peace.
This move goes against all logic of negotiation and reaching a compromise between two sides, and it will push the desired peace further away.
Moreover, The Palestinian Authority did not meet any of its requirements and obligations; it did not stop neither the incitement, nor the pay-for-slay policy, nor did it take the required measures to combat terrorism – as demonstrated recently with the discovery of rockets and missiles near Ramallah last week.
The Palestinian Authority is part of the problem and not part of the solution. This is also the reason why the United States imposed sanctions on the Palestinian Authority and prevented its senior officials from entering its territory.
In any case, Israel will not accept any detached and imaginary text that attempts to force it to accept indefensible borders.
Political gestures aimed at a domestic voting audience only harm the Middle East and are not helpful. Instead, if the countries that signed this declaration truly wish to stabilize the region, they should focus on pressuring Hamas to release the hostages and to disarm immediately.
Prime Minister's Office:
Today's action against the top terrorist chieftains of Hamas was a wholly independent Israeli operation.
Israel initiated it, Israel conducted it, and Israel takes full responsibility.
Palestinian Hamas drags innocent people into tunnels - holding them in darkness, starving and torturing them.
Israel fights to bring them home, to save lives, to let families be whole again.
Life vs. death. Freedom vs. terror.
Whose side are you on?
The IDF and ISA conducted a precise strike targeting the senior leadership of the Hamas terrorist organization.
For years, these members of the Hamas leadership have led the terrorist organization's operations, are directly responsible for the brutal October 7 massacre, and have been orchestrating and managing the war against the State of Israel.
Prior to the strike, measures were taken in order to mitigate harm to civilians, including the use of precise munitions and additional intelligence.
The IDF and ISA will continue to operate with determination in order to defeat the Hamas terrorist organization responsible for the October 7 massacre.
