The Consulate General of @IsraelAtlanta Georgia entertainment industry delegation made a special visit to Damascus Gate in Jerusalem. Standing with the brave men and women of the boarder police they placed a rose in memory of Sgt. Rose Lubin, Z”L. Rose, a lone soldier from the Atlanta area, serving in the border police and counter terror unit was off-duty at Kibbutz Sa’ad near the Gaza border on October 7, 2023. When Hamas terrorists attacked, she took up her personal weapon to help defend the kibbutz, secure its gates, and guide survivors fleeing the Nova Music Festival to safety. On November 6, 2023, at just 20 years old, Rose was fatally stabbed in a terrorist attack while standing guard near Damascus Gate in Jerusalem’s Old City. May Rose’s memory be a blessing, and may her extraordinary courage, selflessness, and devotion to Israel and its people continue to inspire us all.

Hezbollah never stopped violating the ceasefire and attacking Israeli civilians. Hezbollah attacks Israelis with drones, rockets, anti-tank missiles. Families are forced into shelters. Communities live under constant threat. Children grow up to the sound of sirens. No country would allow this to continue.

I condemn the recent killing of a Serbian @UNIFIL_ peacekeeper in Lebanon. Seven peacekeepers serving with UNIFIL have now been killed & several more have been wounded since the escalation in hostilities since March this year. These attacks must stop.

Dozens of sirens today warning of incoming rockets or attack drones fired by Hezbollah from Lebanon. Israeli civilians cannot be allowed to live under such conditions.

Israelis living on Kibbutz Sasa and other towns & villages on the border with Lebanon have had a tough time and responded with remarkable resilience. Israel will protect our citizens and ensure both normalcy and security.

Hezbollah's daily attacks on Israeli civilians while embedding its terror infrastructure inside civilian life is a violation of the ceasefire. Launchers hidden in schools. Weapons stored in children’s bedrooms. Terrorists evacuated in ambulances. Military compounds operating from hospitals.

Buying off the ICC Prosecutor. Qatar launched an intelligence operation & promised to “look after” Karim Khan over targeting Israel. When the operation’s manager was asked if backing came from a sheikh or the state, he said: “the state.” A crooked prosecutor. A corrupted court. wsj.com/opinion/karim-khan-i…

This is an unprecedented large-scale humanitarian international effort, under the responsibility of the Board of Peace's CMCC. Gaza is receiving aid massively, every single day. Hundreds of trucks entering. Millions of meals produced. Medical supplies delivered.

This Yom HaZikaron feels different. Last May, our embassy family joined the ranks of bereaved families of victims of terror attacks. Our friends, Sarah Milgrim z"l and Yaron Lischinsky z"l, were murdered outside an event for young diplomats. They were at their prime, in love and in their professional element. This memorial day, and every day, we stand with their families, joining them in mourning. Their absence is everywhere - in the empty seats where they should be, in the conversations we still expect to have, in the spring days they should have been here to enjoy. May their memory be a blessing.

Equating a sovereign UN member state with a jihadist terrorist organization is yet another proof of the UN Secretary-General’s failure. The UN has failed to disarm Hezbollah and failed to uphold its own Security Council Resolution 1701. Hezbollah is the enemy of both Israel and Lebanon, serving as the Iranian regime’s proxy to dominate Lebanon. @antonioguterres should stand firmly behind genuine Israel–Lebanon peace efforts, not offer excuses for Hezbollah.

Tonight, on Holocaust Remembrance Day, in Times Square. 6 million is not a number. It is children, families, entire worlds annihilated. We remember them. Never again.

40 days under fire. Iran’s terror regime and its proxy in Lebanon, Hezbollah, shot at Israeli cities - at families. Sirens became routine. Fear became normal. 42 murdered.

An Iranian regime missile struck next to a mosque in Israel. A regime that targets civilians and sacred spaces of all religions has no red lines. Nothing is off limits for them.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The debris shown is from an Israeli Iron Dome Tamir interceptor that malfunctioned or fell short, not an Iranian missile. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron_Dome israelnationalnews.com/flashes/678695 x.com/Stinky91584609…

The Iranian regime’s long-range missiles already reach Europe. This is not a distant threat, it’s a present reality.

After the cluster missile strike that killed Yaron and Ilana Moshe in their home in Ramat Gan, the destruction left behind is staggering. These cluster munitions are designed to break apart mid-air, releasing dozens - sometimes hundreds - of smaller explosives that spread across a wide area. Each one carries its own blast, turning entire neighborhoods into impact zones.

"They are using cluster bombs at centers of heavily populated areas, in order to kill or injure as many civilians as they can." 🎥 WATCH: @IDF @IDFSpokesperson BG Effie Defrin at the site of a civilian home that was impacted by an Iranian cluster bomb.

An elderly couple was killed in their home in Ramat Gan tonight by an Iranian Regime cluster missile - a weapon designed to scatter munitions across wide civilian areas. May their memory be a blessing.
