About this listen
Hamas Claims 11 Militants Killed Near Younis
Israel police detain officials in wartime donations
First Israeli Deni Avdija earns All Star
The time is now 2:01 AM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.
In the Disputed Territories (Gaza, Judea and Samaria, East Jerusalem), channels aligned with Hamas say militants from Hamas killed 11 members of rival militias in an ambush today near the Batan al-Samin area in the southern Khan Younis district, though there is no corroboration from other sources. Separately, Egyptian network Al-Kahera reported that 50 Palestinians returned to Gaza from Egypt via Rafah crossing this morning. The Palestinian health ministry in Gaza said 50 patients and 100 accompanying people were still leaving through Kerem Shalom, not Rafah. A Hamas health ministry spokesman noted that about 20,000 patients remain on waiting lists hoping to leave the enclave via Rafah; at the current pace of 50 patients per day, that process would take roughly two years.
In Israeli Domestic Politics, Israel Police’s Lahav 433 detained a local authority head, senior municipal officials, and several businesspeople on suspicion of public corruption offenses. Police say an undercover probe into the diversion of wartime donations led to searches at homes and offices and to the detainees being brought for questioning at the unit’s headquarters. With the shift from covert to open investigation, officers carried out searches and detentions and raided the municipality building as part of a broader effort to curb unlawful extraction of state funds.
In Uplifting News, Deni Avdija has been selected for the NBA All-Star game, making him the first Israeli chosen for the event. The game is set for February 15 at the Intuit Dome in Los Angeles. Avdija finished seventh in West voting and was named as a West reserve by the league’s head coaches. He is in the midst of what has been described as the best season of his career, averaging 25.5 points per game, 46.7 percent shooting, 35.6 percent from three, 80 percent from the free-throw line, and 7.2 rebounds per game.
