Daily Briefing Nov 6: Day 31 – in divided Gaza Strip, IDF leaves corridor for evacuees
Editor David Horovitz on Minister Eliyahu’s nuclear option and other ways Israel is losing the war of public opinion; military reporter Emanuel Fabian on Jordan’s Gaza aid airdrop
Welcome to The Times of Israel’s Daily Briefing, your 15-minute audio update on what’s happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world.
Editor David Horovitz and military reporter Emanuel Fabian join host Amanda Borschel-Dan on today’s episode.
Fabian updates us on the condition of the two police officers who were attacked just outside the Jerusalem Old City’s Damascus Gate this morning.
The IDF has announced that the Gaza Strip is now divided into north and south. How does this clear demarcation affect IDF operations?
An Israeli civilian was killed in an anti-tank guided missile attack launched from Lebanon at an area near the northern community of Kibbutz Yiftah, bringing the civilian death toll on the Israeli side of the Lebanon border to two in attacks by Hezbollah and Palestinian gunmen since October 7. Fabian explains the tit-for-tat skirmishes with Hezbollah.
The Jordanian kingdom announced that its air force airdropped vital medical supplies to a field hospital in the Gaza Strip. We only have initial information about IDF coordination. Fabian shares what we know.
Heritage Minister Amichai Eliyahu suggested Sunday on Radio Kol Berama that one of Israel’s options in the war against Hamas could be to drop a nuclear bomb on the Gaza Strip. How were his remarks received, both here in Israel and abroad?
On October 7, Hamas attacked Israel on from land, sea, air — and social media. Horovitz weighs in on how Israel is faring in the war for public opinion.
