200 meters of Hezbollah terror infrastructure buried more than 25 meters underground.

Built with Iranian support, this underground complex housed hundreds of lethal weapons, four missile launch shafts aimed at Israel, 12 military operational rooms, living quarters for terrorists, and caches of anti-tank missiles, explosives, and UAVs.

Just 6 kilometers from Israel's border, this is the military stronghold Hezbollah has built in southern Lebanon.

Today, on the @UN International Day for the Elimination of Sexual Violence in Conflict, we amplify the voices of hostage survivors.

Their testimonies bear witness to the sexual violence perpetrated by Hamas on October 7 and during captivity.

Listen to them. Believe them. Never forget.

Antisemitism is one of the world's oldest hatreds, but in the digital age it spreads faster than ever before - fueling discrimination, radicalization, and violence both online and offline.

On the International Day for Countering Hate Speech, we call on governments, organizations, and individuals to stand against antisemitism and all forms of hatred.

Countering hate speech is not only about protecting feelings; it's about protecting people.

Madam,

With all due respect, even in your remarks here you refrain from denying or condemning what has been attributed to you and published publicly. That speaks for itself.

To the best of my knowledge, the statements attributed to you regarding “apartheid” do not reflect the position of the European Union.

The matter is simple: if you did indeed make these vile and defamatory statements, stand behind them.

If you did not make them, deny it.

Until this matter is cleared up, my decision will remain unchanged.

[Israel Foreign Ministry @IsraelMFA]

For decades, the Iranian regime has used Hezbollah to undermine Lebanon's sovereignty and advance its regional ambitions.

The Lebanese people deserve to shape their own future - not one dictated by the Iranian regime.

Israelis and Lebanese alike want peace, safety, prosperity, and a better future for their children.

[Israel Foreign Ministry @IsraelMFA]

The remarks made by the President of Belarus - a country that knows all too well the horrors of the Holocaust committed on its own soil - in his interview with Al Arabiya are unacceptable and deeply disturbing.

Any comparison between the Holocaust of the Jewish people and Israel’s just war against terrorism must be unequivocally rejected.

Equally appalling is the revival of vile, outdated antisemitic conspiracies that should have long been consigned to history.

[Israel Foreign Ministry @IsraelMFA]

The Palestinian Authority’s commitments were clear. Their violations were obvious.

Yet European taxpayer money still flows to terrorists through Palestinian Authority funding.

[Israel Foreign Ministry @IsraelMFA]

Media coverage of Israel in the context of Hezbollah’s attacks from Lebanon has been deeply skewed and misleading.

The Iranian regime and its terrorist proxy, Hezbollah, have been waging a sustained campaign against Israel from Lebanese territory, launching thousands of attacks on communities in northern Israel. As a result, millions of Israeli civilians have lived under constant threat, daily life has been severely disrupted, and tens of thousands of residents have been forced to leave their homes.

Yet major international outlet - including AP, Reuters, The New York Times, CNN, NBC, CBC, and France 24 - have overwhelmingly focused on the Lebanese side of the story while largely ignoring the impact on Israeli civilians.

An analysis conducted between June 3-10 of 750 articles published across 14 leading international media outlets found that Israeli civilian suffering accounted for just over 1% of total coverage.

[Israel Foreign Ministry @IsraelMFA]

UNRWA's statement on the termination of 70 employees, while blaming the victim, Israel, and without even mentioning the word "Hamas", is a cynical cover-up.

The responsibility to purge terrorism lies solely with the UN, yet Hamas membership remains simply acceptable within UNRWA's ranks.

By harboring terrorists and letting its facilities serve as Hamas headquarters, @UNRWA has become an arm of Hamas.

From Israel’s northern border, which could one day be a border of peace, I sent this message to the President and people of Lebanon this morning:

[Jacob Yanovsky @CobiYanovsky]

22 nations stood up this week against Iranian threats to Jewish communities across Europe. A neighbour, Czechia, signed. Slovakia did not. Criticism of Israel rarely lacks for voices - true balance mean addressing the full picture rather than reserving your condemnation exclusively for Israel.
@SlovakiaMFA

[Israel Foreign Ministry @IsraelMFA]

Israel welcomes the joint statement by 22 nations exposing the Iranian regime’s lethal plotting and terrorist activities from Europe to Australia to North America.

The Iranian regime spreads terror and violence wherever it can. This is its core nature and essence.

It is the number one threat to global security and world order, and the international community must confront this threat together.

🇮🇱 A world first in Israel: an 8-month-old is the first patient ever to receive gene therapy delivered directly into the brain to treat a rare genetic disorder, the result of Israeli-Arab medical and scientific cooperation. A story of innovation and hope.

[Israel Foreign Ministry @IsraelMFA]

We appreciate the concern of the distinguished governments about the humanitarian access in Gaza, despite the fact that the concerns and claims in the statement are completely unfounded and detached from reality.

There are immense amounts of humanitarian aid entering the Gaza Strip. Since the ceasefire, more than 1.6 million tons of food have entered the Gaza Strip, with an average of 600 humanitarian aid trucks entering the Strip each day.

There are dozens of international aid organizations operating in the Strip that handle the aforementioned humanitarian aid. The registration process for these international organizations is designed to ensure that their activities are not exploited to promote terrorism, as was the case with UNRWA. In this regard, we refer governments to the USAID report published less than a week ago concerning more than 100 UNRWA employees found to have links to Hamas.

The registration process for international organizations, including the need to ensure that their activities are not exploited for terrorism, was reviewed and approved by Israel's Supreme Court, whose independence democratic nations are expected to respect.

Millions of Israelis have been forced into bomb shelters as the Iranian terror regime attacks Israel directly and through its terrorist proxies - Hezbollah in Lebanon and Houthis in Yemen.

These are civilians, families, children and elderly, trying to get through their day under the threat of missile attacks.

Thank you, @Antonio_Tajani, for your clear and unwavering condemnation of today’s Hamas terror attack. In the global fight against terrorism, your statement represents true moral leadership and a refusal to compromise on basic principles.

There is no room for double standards in the face of terror. Those who rush to criticize Israel's legitimate actions of self-defense, yet remain silent when terror strikes, lose all moral legitimacy to participate in this discussion.

[Antonio Tajani @Antonio_Tajani]

Condanno con fermezza l'attacco terroristico di Hamas avvenuto oggi in #Israele 🇮🇱, nella regione di Sharon. Esprimo solidarietà alle vittime e alle loro famiglie, e vicinanza a @gidonsaar e alle autorità israeliane. Il terrorismo non è mai giustificato: nessuna causa politica, nessun conflitto, nessuna rivendicazione può legittimare il massacro di civili innocenti. Il dialogo è l'unica strada per una pace duratura.

[Israel na Slovensku @IsraelinSK]

Dnes, 7. júna, si pripomíname 59. výročie zjednotenia Jeruzalema 🇮🇱
Od roku 1967 je Jeruzalem otvorený pre všetky náboženstvá. Sloboda vyznania a prístup k posvätným miestam sú garantované pre každého, bez ohľadu na vieru.
Jeruzalem, večné a nedeliteľné hlavné mesto Izraela. 🕍

[Israel Foreign Ministry @IsraelMFA]

One Israeli was murdered and five others were injured in a shooting terror attack in the Sharon region.

The terrorist opened fire on civilians at multiple locations before being neutralized, turning an ordinary day into a nightmare for innocent families.

We mourn the victim who lost his life and wish all those injured a full and speedy recovery. 💔
