ISRAELI AID GROUPS MOBILIZE FOR VENEZUELA EARTHQUAKE
A powerful earthquake struck Venezuela, causing widespread damage and prompting urgent international humanitarian response.
Another Israeli nonprofit, NATAN Worldwide Disaster Relief, is deploying an emergency team of medical and social workers to earthquake-stricken Venezuela to establish mobile clinics. ZAKA, IsraAid, and Israel’s Foreign Ministry are also preparing aid and rescue missions as the humanitarian response expands.
Tonight, the Knicks won the NBA Finals.
And tonight is also 6/13-a number that holds deep significance in Judaism, representing the 613 mitzvahs of the Torah.
But it gets even better.
Red Holzman, the legendary Jewish coach who led the Knicks to their first two NBA championships, finished his coaching career with exactly 613 wins as Knicks head coach.
When the Knicks retired his number, they chose 613.
The same number as the mitzvahs.
The same number as tonight’s date.
Faith. History. Legacy.
Amazing how sometimes everything comes full circle.
Israel's Dog Unit has begun testing a program where dogs are trained to detect Hezbollah drones acoustically, providing advance alerts to troops before the drones reach their positions, particularly at night or in reduced visibility.
Think about what you do in a day, what your afternoon looks like: school pickup, errands, a walk with your dog in the park.
Here’s what this afternoon looked like in northern Israel:
13:37 – 9 rockets
14:57 – 2 rockets
15:00 – 2 rockets
15:18 – 3 rockets
15:28 – 1 rocket
15:56 – 1 rocket
16:01 – ATGM fire
16:08 – 2 rockets
16:16 – 1 rocket
16:22 – 1 rocket
16:38 – 1 rocket
18:34 – 4 rockets
18:35 - 2 rockets
18:39 - 2 explosive drones
18:45 - 1 rocket
This is how Hezbollah honors a ceasefire.
Now just imagine what would happen if all this was fired over the Mexican border at American citizens.
What an incredible display of unity, love, and resilience as tens of thousands of New Yorkers turned out for the Israel Day Parade in NYC!
Today, we boycotted antisemitism and sent a powerful message: New York will always stand with its Jewish community, and New Yorkers will always stand with Israel.
🇺🇸🇮🇱 עם ישראל חי 🇺🇸🇮🇱
It's exciting to see Fifth Avenue in New York painted blue and white today.
Tens of thousands of marchers came to convey a clear message of defiance and unity with the State of Israel.
At a time when anti-Semitism is rising and hatred of Israel is encouraged by elected officials, we stand proud of our identity and proudly wave the Israeli flag.
No one will make us take down the Israeli flags. Not in New York, nor anywhere else in the world. 🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱
⭕️ Israel Day Parade 2026: Let's summarize:
Proud Jews are marching without rioting.
Both the US and Israeli flags are waved proudly.
Highest security ever, "thanks to the haters."
We are American Jews, and we are not just proud Americans but proud of our Jewish state.
Am Yisrael Chai, and G-D bless the USA 🇮🇱🇺🇸
Breaking: The @IDF now report that they have eliminated 2,500 Hezbollah terrorists in Lebanon during Operation "Roaring Lion" (since February 28, 2026).
This is a vital statistic to understand the current situation. Recently, the Lebanese Ministry of Health claimed 3,300 deaths since the beginning of the operation, making headlines in major news outlets across the world.
Assuming this statistic is accurate, it would mean the wide majority of deaths in Lebanon during this operation have been Hezbollah terrorists.
This isn't just a statistic - it is a clear sign that the way the reality in Lebanon is being presented does not reflect reality. The IDF is operating with immense precision, and the truth needs to be put out.
The IDF assessments to count terrorists eliminated, i.e. BDA, uses a wide range of intelligence capabilities, including aerial surveillance, human intelligence, cellular conversations conducted by terrorists and other technological means in order to estimate the number of eliminated terrorists at any given point in time. It's also important to understand in war, there's no such thing as 100% accurate intelligence and that's why the use of a wide range of information sources, provided by different units in the IDF (IDI, Northern Command, and others), is so important.
With Lebanese and IDF (which most media source don’t include) reported numbers, the picture is a lot different than the inversions of reality we continue to see pushed in media and by international institutions. The IDF target terrorists while taking many effective measures to mitigate harm to civilians. That’s what the numbers show.

This day in history - Operation Solomon begins: Within just 36 hours on May 24-25, 1991, more than 14,300 Ethiopian Jews were covertly airlifted from Addis Ababa to Israel, saving them from civil war and famine
In 1991, Ethiopia had been embroiled in a decades-long civil war and was facing a famine. Rebel forces were advancing toward Addis Ababa and the Jews there, causing grave concern among Israeli and American-Jewish agencies on the ground in Ethiopia. Diplomats negotiated a deal with the Ethiopian government, and covert operations were arranged to enable evacuation at a moment’s notice.
After President George H.W. Bush sent a letter to the new Ethiopian President, Tesfaye Gebre Kidan, an agreement was reached on May 23, allowing Jews to leave Ethiopia all at once. Operation Solomon started the next day and a few days after the Operation was completed, Addis Ababa fell to the rebels.
In total, 35 aircraft were involved in Operation Solomon. One plane broke and holds the Guinness world record for the most passengers on an aircraft. All the seats had been removed, and at least 1,078 people were on board, including two babies born in-flight.
The Jewish Agency along with the Government of Israel were the main players in planning and executing Operation Solomon, working alongside and supported by organizations including the Israel Defense Forces, the American Joint Distribution Committee, the American Association for Ethiopian Jews, the Jewish Federations of North America (then UJA) and more.
