Israel At War Motzei Shabbos Re'eh

Israel at war day 687

-An IDF officer was killed in an apparent accident in the southern Gaza Strip today after a IDF explosive detonated
Ori Gerlic, 20, from Meitar.

- The assessment in Israel: at least one or two hostages in very serious and life-threatening condition

-US President Donald Trump indicated during a press conference in the Oval Office on Friday that fewer than 20 hostages held by terror groups in Gaza are still alive, sparking despair from the families of the captives and a denial from Israel’s hostage point man.

- Gantz urges Netanyahu, Lapid, Liberman to form temporary ‘hostage-redemption government’

- Israel defense establishment is examining whether the ballistic missile launched last night from Yemen had a cluster warhead.
As reported yesterday, the missile disintegrated shortly before reaching Israeli territory, and the Air Force fired interceptors at its fragments. It is now being investigated whether these were separate warheads, each with its own explosive.
During the campaign against Iran in June, Iran launched several ballistic missiles with similar cluster warheads, and it is very likely that Iran transferred similar weapons systems to the Houthis.

-Thousands of people gathered in Tel Aviv and across Israel tonight in weekly protests calling on the government to make a deal with the Hamas  for a hostage release deal and ceasefire in the Gaza Strip,  as this may be the last chance to save lives.
