Former hostage Omer Shem Tov, held captive in Gaza for 505 days, appeared at Israel's Ophir Awards to present a statue. He recently finished an acting course at Stella Adler in New York, pursuing a dream he's had since he was four or five.
🇮🇱Israel Media in PANIC right now Because of TURKEY 🇹🇷
🇹🇷Turkey is rising FAST and AGGRESSIVELY- turning into one of the strongest military powers in the world.
🇺🇸Even President Trump admitted it. He said:
Most people have NO IDEA how powerful Türkiye has become.
Their deadly “killer drones” are dominating the battlefield and now Turkey is racing full speed to build 5th generation weapons!
The game is changing… and Israel is NOT happy 😳
Sarah Netanyahu, Benjamin Netanyahu’s wife, posted this on March 8, 2026:
"I salute the brave women of Iran. The world saw your courage. We are with you. May the day come soon when when the women of Iran and all the people of Iran will live in freedom and in peace.”
ISRAELI COMPANIES ARE LEAVING TURKEY
Globes reports that Israeli sanitaryware company Hamat has shut down its Turkish subsidiary in Izmir, as Israeli business activity in Turkey continues to shrink under Ankara’s anti-Israel trade policy.
The numbers tell the story:
Israeli imports from Turkey fell from about $2 billion in 2024 to $924 million in 2025.
Israeli exports to Turkey collapsed from nearly $599 million to just $10.9 million.
Some Israeli-linked companies, including Teva, ICL and Netafim, still operate there — but the direction is clear.
Erdogan’s hostility is turning Turkey from a regional trade partner into a business risk.

Turkish President Erdogan has cozied up to Hamas and Putin while threatening our allies Israel, Greece, & Cyprus. Yet, the Trump Administration is happy to sell them advanced engines to power fighter jets.
Erdogan cannot be trusted, this decision must be reversed.
