About this listen
Iran not recovered; fewer missiles, damaged defenses
Raphaeli denies Epstein links amid emails
Baku to Jerusalem: Jewish solidarity grows
The time is now 7:01 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, Israeli minister Eli Cohen, in an interview on Kan, said Iran has not recovered from the June operation and now arrives with fewer missiles and damaged air defenses. He added that there is no need to buy generators because supply can be maintained continuously even in emergencies.
In Israeli Economy and Business, Ofer Raphaeli, who runs the Tel Aviv branch of the MC2 modeling agency, says he did not know about criminal activity linked to Jeffrey Epstein. A Channel 12 report aired emails suggesting Epstein’s contact with Jean-Luc Brunel and Raphaeli in recruitment efforts, which Raphaeli says he is contesting as defamation and plans to consult a lawyer. He told Ma’ariv that he met Epstein only twice, for a few minutes, and there was no friendship or business connection. He says he had a relationship with Brunel, was unaware of any criminal activity by the agency in New York, and that the Miami and New York agencies were closed several years ago.
In Uplifting News, From Baku to Jerusalem: Jewish solidarity against terror, the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations traveled to Baku, met senior officials, visited Jewish communal institutions, and began its 51st leadership mission in Jerusalem. Officials say the visit underscores the importance of partnerships with the United States and Israel and recognizes Azerbaijan as an essential ally in the region. As Ramadan meets Purim, Jews and Muslims must choose shared humanity over fear, an opinion piece notes that across the Middle East Jews have lived in the region for centuries and that acts of neighborliness persist; the author argues that Ramadan and Purim evoke shared values of fasting, generosity, and community, calling for renewed commitment to shared humanity.
