Baku to Jerusalem unite against terror

The time is now 8:01 PM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.

In the conflict with Iran and its Regional Proxies, Iran has not recovered from the June operation, arriving with fewer missiles and damaged air defense systems. When asked whether there is a need to buy generators, the minister said there is no need. Supply can be maintained continuously even in emergencies.

In US Policy Concerning Israel, Huckabee draws backlash over claim Israel has right to much of Middle East. Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Jordan and others condemn the US ambassador’s remark that it would be fine if Israel claimed biblical land from the Nile to the Euphrates, while noting no expansion is planned.

In Uplifting News, From Baku to Jerusalem: Jewish solidarity against terror - opinion. The Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations traveled to Baku this week, meeting with senior officials, visiting Jewish communal institutions and engaging with a leadership that views its partnership with the United States and Israel as strategic, not symbolic. From there, they flew to Jerusalem, where their 51st annual leadership mission now begins. Diplomacy does not live in theory. Solidarity does not rest in slogans. Presence projects strength, the piece says. Azerbaijan remains an essential ally and is home to one of the oldest and most vibrant Jewish communities in the Muslim world.
