The News on the Israeli Street
Palestinian terror in the last 24 hours . . .
On the Gaza border:
Following the third barrage of missiles in two weeks on Sderot two nights ago, the government took the “extraordinary” (try not to laugh) step of cutting fuel supplies to Hamas in half. This morning, Hamas accused Israel of breaking the truce by reducing fuel deliveries, and that if the regular amount of fuel is not immediately forthcoming, it will begin attacking the fence and launching explosive balloons again.
Attacking the fence and launching explosive balloons again?
They have not stopped attacking the fence, launching explosive balloons, and firing missiles since the last so-called “ceasefire” was engineered by Egypt last month.
In Judea and Samaria:
Eight wanted terrorists were captured overnight including three who were involved in the murder of Dvir Sorek a few weeks ago.
In other incidents:
*Palestinian terrorists planted a roadside IED between Itamar and Elon Moreh. IDF sappers successfully neutralized it.
*Palestinian terrorists attacked a bus on the Hevron-Gush Etzion Road near Al-Aruv.
*Palestinian terrorists attacked an IDF position at the entrance to Kfar Al-Aruv.
*A Palestinian weapons-making lathe was uncovered by IDF soldiers in Beit Liqya.
A secret gun making lathe in Samaria discovered last night.
Fake news . . .
If you can believe this (and why not because we have been writing about it here for years), it was revealed yesterday that the IDF has been falsifying data concerning “rock” and Molotov attacks in Judea and Samaria.
A few weeks ago, the IDF spokesman issued a summary of terror attacks in 2018 and claimed that “rock” throwing had dropped by 50%. This “statistic” was widely broadcast in the Israeli “left-wing” media in such places as the Yediot Ahronot and Ha’aretz newspapers.
However, when groups petitioned to see the actual figures, it was discovered that the number of such attacks actually increased. The IDF has been forced to correct its initial statement.
Violating the public peace . . .
After one year, three Israeli teenagers were indicted in a Jerusalem Court yesterday on charges of “violating the public peace” and “disturbing a policeman.”
What did they do?
As they passed the holiest place in Judaism at the Kipat HaSela (aka Dome of the Rock), they prostrated themselves on the ground and repeated the Shema several times.
This was too much for the Muslims on the Mount to take.

The Tension Is Palpable On Israel’s Lebanese And Gaza Border
In the last 24 hours:
*PM Netanyahu convened the security cabinet in a bunker in the Judean Hills. He took the extraordinary step of inviting the leader of the Blue and White Party, Benny Gantz, to the meeting.
*The IDF has closed all roads along the Lebanese border and some leading to it.
*The IDF has closed all airspace over northern Israel to commercial aircraft.
*Israel has warned Lebanon that if Hezbollah attacks Israel, Israel will attack Lebanon.
*The IDF has warned Hezbollah that if it attacks military targets in the Galilee, Israel will respond disproportionately.
*Hamas has declared today that if war breaks out between Israel and Hezbollah, it will immediately attack Israel.
It is now 4:30 pm Israel time. Four mortars were just fired into southern Israel by Hamas, and Israel has responded with tank fire. Hamas and Islamic Jihad leaders have told their launchers to be on “standby.”
Further reports will come as events unfold.
A student from Malawi, who had worked with an Israeli health volunteer in his country battling AIDS, came up to us as we walked down the street in the UC-Davis Picnic Day Parade and wanted to carry the Israeli flag.
