Israeli media reported a loud explosion on Ben Yehuda Street on the corner of Shalom Aleichem in Tel Aviv.

Police, fire, and rescue services were deployed to the area and told Israeli media that there was no fire. The source of the explosion is not yet known.

Residents who live near the place of the explosion say that objects were shattered in their houses as a result of the blast.



Magen David Adom reported that a 37-year-old man and a 25-year-old woman were slightly injured, and they are fully conscious and were taken to the Ichilov Hospital with shrapnel injuries to their limbs and shoulder. In addition, four were being treated for shock at the scene.

The Home Front Command stated: "No aerial intrusion into the country's central area was detected, and therefore no alarm was triggered - the incident is under investigation."

The police said: "A short time ago, a report was received at the police headquarters about hearing an explosion in a building in Tel Aviv. Large forces of the Tel Aviv District Police and police engineers arrived at the scene."

This is a developing story.

Israel finally responded to months of Houthi attacks by bombing the port of Hodeidah (power station, refinery, oil tanks). There are reportedly dozens killed. Better late than never, I guess:

IDF statements:
"Fighter jets struck military targets of the Houthi terror regime in the area of the Al Hudaydah Port in Yemen, in response to the hundreds of attacks carried out against the State of Israel in recent months," the IDF says.

The military says there is no change to instructions for Israeli civilians.

It says it will provide further details soon.

The attack apparently marks the first time Israel has ever carried out a strike in Yemen.

‘Two IDF soldiers were killed securing US Gaza aid pier’​

Two Israel Defense Forces soldiers were killed last month while securing the United States’ humanitarian aid pier off the coast of Gaza, an Israeli military source deployed to the Strip told JNS.

The Biden administration project was plagued by technical and logistical dysfunction and is now being decommissioned by the Pentagon.

“What led me to talk is really just the frustration towards the end of the last few weeks. It’s a very unsafe operation; anything could happen,” the source said. “They [the United States] could have delivered the aid through any land port and finished within a week, but for whatever publicity reason they built the pier. Then they failed and tried to cover it up.”

On June 15, IDF tanks based at a makeshift military outpost set up near the pier ran over a large IED some 400 meters north of it, killing two soldiers and wounding two others, according to the source.

“The operation was conducted in defense of the pier. Anything that occurred in the area, they [the Israeli troops] were responsible for protecting it [the pier],” the source said. “Ultimately, the reason they were engaging these terrorists is because they posed a threat to the forces protecting the aid,” he added.

“The mission was in support of the larger goal of protecting the pier and occurred within that context. Soldiers would not have been positioned within these areas otherwise,” he told JNS.

On June 16, the IDF announced that Capt. (res.) Eitan Koplovich, 28, from Jerusalem, and Warrant Officer (res.) Elon Waiss, 49, from Psagot, were killed in northern Gaza. Both served in the 8th Reserve Armored Brigade’s 129th Battalion.

Two other troops were seriously wounded in the attack, according to the military.

Hamas had targeted the tank with explosives.

JNS reached out to the IDF twice to confirm the veracity of source’s claim. Both times, the military referred JNS to its website and Telegram channel “for information regarding fallen soldiers.”

The U.S. military’s Central Command (CENTCOM), which is responsible for operations in the Middle East, referred JNS back to the IDF.

Man, what a ridiculous sacrifice. IDF personnel dying for a now dead political reelection campaign.

Lol @ all the Gaza drones on social media making a big deal about that ICJ ruling as if anyone gives a single fuck about what that kangaroo court says.

Where was the ICJ with their impotent rulings when the Armenians were being forced out by the Azeris. Oh yeah, they didn't give a fuck because it was Muslims fucking with Christians.

An Amerimutt Canadamutt (Muslim, entered on a tourist visa yesterday) was shot dead attempting to carry out a stabbing attack at Netiv Haasara, near Gaza. He stated that "civilians are being killed in Gaza by the IDF" before pulling out a knife, after which he was shot by the community's security team. Reportedly, he was carrying a manifesto on his person:
