The Israeli military is fighting more on the ground in southern Lebanon right now. They are moving north past the Latani River. Fighter jets and heavy guns are bombing the Ali Alah Ridge. Now, if you ask me, that's a, you know, kind of a breach in a ceasefire. I don't know. The military says secret operations there have killed a large number of terrorists. a breach and ceasefire from well there's supposed to be a ceasefire in Lebanon but is not kind of sticking to it. They also killed members of the Iran's IRGC which um they've the United States today has designated as a a part of the IRGC already which is a big step. The run media network is warning viewers that Israel might capture the ridge. They say that includes Imad 4 that is the important underground base built beneath the mountain. Now, overnight, Israeli jets struck the ridge at least four times. They also bombed um Alcantara and two villages in the in the Tier district. They also hit the T district, Tier, whatever. T district and they also hit headquarters in Balashas. Joking, Bashit, it's called. Inside the Lebanese government, leaders are trying to change who controls the border area. President Joseph and Prime Minister um Nawaf Salam are pushing to sign a military deal with the European Union. The goal is to bring in a European military force to kind of you know they would replace the UN the UNIFIL United Nations troops where their time ends later this year. They have an expiration date where they're leaving. President Aun says that he can sign the agreement without approval from the parliament. Even Prime Minister Salam says the government will do everything it can to make Israeli forces leave the south. However, no date is set for direct talks. Well, they had talks already, but you know, we told you the other day that Israeli fighter jets bombed a Syrian military air base. You remember that, right? Remember it? Okay, fine. Now, new satellite images show exactly where the bombs hit. The pictures show four direct hits at Abu at a place called Abu Al- Dhar base. The strikes completely destroyed the new the newly paved sections of the runway. Turkey has recently helped Syria rebuild those strips. A former senior Palestinian authority officer in other news has be who became a major terror leader was killed overnight. It happened during an arrest raid in Janin. Th uh his name is Fahi Hazim who tried to stab Israeli paratroo sorry paratroopers with a knife as they tried to arrest him. The soldiers returned fire and killed him on the spot. No Israelis were hurt in the process. Fathi was the father of the terrorist who murdered three yeden at a Tel Aiv bar in April 2022. Following that attack, Fathi strongly encouraged more violence and he urged Palestinian Authority security officers to fight the Israeli military. The PA forces had delayed arresting him due to his severe health conditions. But they moved in after he recently refused orders to come in for questioning. United States ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabe is defending a new White House decision. He is defending the Trump administration holding direct talks with kamas. Hakabe said that the meetings are not meant to make the Islamic terrorists look like real governments because they're talking to them direct face to face. He says the United States is sitting down with them because they want to tell them face to face to give up their weapons. In other words, nicely or not will basically basically interrogations. He says they are being told not interrogation because they're obviously coming willingly. No, they are being told that they will never rule Gaza again.

The information is in the description below. Like or subscribe, share. Yeah, give me all that. Exactly. The United States is blocking Palestinian Authority President Mahmud Abbas from entering the country. The United States, this is the second year in a row where they have a ban. He wanted to travel to New York to speak at the United Nations General Assembly, which is coming up next month, September. Right. United States officials said that Washington is refusing to issue him an entry visa. Abbas had asked Turkish President uh Erdogan to speak directly to President Trump about this to try and convince him to let him in, but the effort failed. The State Department is keeping the travel ban in place. The Israeli government is officially moving forward with a major new construction. This is for the E1 area we spoke about yesterday between Rashalime and Mala Adumin which is part of the West Bank. Authorities just published the paperwork. They're asking companies to offer a price to build 1,400 homes, new homes, which is an investment. They're asking investors. Five European countries immediately released a shared statement demanding Israel to stop the building. The countries are the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Italy, and the Netherlands. They want they wanted of they warned builders that they will face contractors illegal uh legal trouble if they try to get the job. The European Union is also threatening to put warning labels on Israeli products. They also threatened to cut business ties if work begins on the on these areas. Colombia has officially recognized Israeli control over the Golan Heights. The move follows talks between Israeli foreign minister Gdonsar and Colombia's new president um Abelo de la E espela. Okay. The announcement makes it's too hard for me to pronounce the name. Announcement makes Colombia the only country besides the United States to agree uh that the land belongs to Israel. Now it comes as the two nations repair their relationships. Now this includes cancelling visa requirements on September 1st. The Colombian government also officially approved Israel's new ambassador, Viven Eisen. She travels to the country on Sunday to obviously, you know, a surprise 1-hour strike stopped check-in and luggage loading at Bangoran airport on Thursday afternoon. What happened? Most flights that took off during the strike obviously had to leave without any suitcases on board. The airport authority union ordered workers to stop at 2:00 in the afternoon. The head of the union is Pinas Idan. His name is the union said workers do not have enough space to work. They said more than 20 American refueling planes are taking up parking spots near the near the main terminals. The strike only lasted 1 hour, but it left dozens of yeen stranded in other countries. If in Bangoran itself, approximately 100,000 passengers were delayed on one of the airport's busiest travel days in the summer. The airport sent clowns to juggle and dance to entertain the crowd. Obviously, what a way to entertain, right? On Thursday night, Natanyao officially removed Pinha Sidan from the liquid party. Police arrested another yeshiva on Thursday night, like I said yesterday, for failing to report to the military. That arrest obviously sparked major protests on route 443. Officers stopped Mati Mish Mishkovski near the Ben Sheman forest and handed him over to the military police. Dozens of Khared quickly organized a protest at the nearby Makabim checkpoint blocking the highway. Uh police moved in to clear the road and the clashes obviously injured at least one yeshiva BHA Mishkovski remains in a military prison. The government recently told the high court that enforcing the military draft with arrest is very difficult. They said it was it always causes these kinds of large protests. They haven't gotten the message yet, have they? Moving to Washington. As we reported yesterday on the new American financial aid shipping blockade against Iran, also known as sanctions, just over a month after the ceasefire ended, Treasury Secretary Scott President is pushing harder. He is now targeting every single broker, fake company, and bank that handles money for the Iranian government. Washington also officially listed as an organization taking direct orders from Iran's military. I guess they officially recognized it now as Iran. The Treasury Department placed financial penalties on 10 specific people. They say those men smuggled hundreds of millions of dollars on regular passenger flights. They moved the cash across Lebanon, Turkey, and the United Arab Emirates, the UAE. This blocks, this blockade is obviously costing around up to $500 million every single day. Shipping tracking data shows zero oil tankers have crossed the straight of Ramoose since the middle of July. With Iranian oil cut off, the Saudi Arabian company Aramco took over the sales. They are now selling 4 million barrels of oil to China from ports outside of the blockade area. Iranian foreign minister Abbasari called the American blockade economic terrorism. He claimed Washington is just trying to distract the American public from the United States national debt which is we reported yesterday 40 trillion. Inside Iran the government is looking at the new law at a new law excuse me. They want to throw citizens in prison just for speaking to American or Israeli reporters. The initial framework has been approved, but it has not yet been part of the law. President Masud Peskin's administration is against this law. They say that they already have ways to track spies and that this law would violate the citizens rights. They have rights there. Didn't know that. Iraqi Prime Minister Ali al- Zahedi ordered um all Iranbacked terror groups in his country to give up their weapons. He set a deadline of September 30th. In an in an announcement, he announced that all weapons must be handed over to the government. Washington is pushing for this change. Obviously, after they spoke, the United States told Iraq to take away their weapons or risk losing access to American dollars. Those dollars keep the Iraqi economy running. Obviously, is a major Islamic terror group funded by Iran. They're now threatening the prime minister directly. The group warned him that they are losing patience. The prime minister says he will not cancel the order even if it costs him his life. Armed men took over a tanker off the coast of Yemen. They're facing it. They're forcing it to sail towards Somalia. This is the second ship hijacking in just 4 days. A British group that monitors the oceans. The UK MTO confirmed that a gunman boarded the ship. Somalia pirates are returning to the area. Obviously, the waters in that region are mostly unguarded right now. So the ongoing tension between the United States and Iran is pulling military ships away from pirate patrols. The specific name for the tanker and the condition of the crew have not been confirmed yet. The Houthis launched drone attacks into Saudi Arabia. They hit a target. They hit a target that they wanted to hit at the Najaran airport and the Aramako oil facility we mentioned before. The group's military spokesperson, Yahasaria, uh, confirmed that they used drones to strike both locations with pride. Obviously, he said the attacks were direct response to Saudi Arabia flying its own drones over Yemen. Si said that they hit a sensitive target. However, he did not release any numbers on the damage or say if anyone was hurt. back in the United States. Obviously, the Houthis said that they they this was a direct response to Saudi Arabia who flew was fly who are flying their own drones over Yemen for spying, I guess, for you know, for making sure that uh protecting themselves, I guess, just in case they do strike again and they can hit them. Sar said that they hit a sensitive target. Well, he says so. Back in the US, federal agents stopped a terror plot to bomb the New York state capital and kill lawmakers in the New York state capital. They arrested 35-year-old Jessica Bowie in Albany. Guess it was very serious. Prosecutors say she pledged her loyalty to ISIS. To prepare for the attack, she watched the capital building. She also she surveiled it. She gathered materials to make a bomb. and she is now in federal prison for this. Severe storms are bringing massive flash floods and rare tornadoes across New York City and the surrounding areas today. The heavy rain completely flooded the Kabad world headquarters at 770 in eastern 770 Eastern Parkway in Williamsburg. Cavan volunteers have spent the last few hours working continuously to help people. They're pumping water out of people's basements that were filled by the storm off the coast. Storms over the water turned into se several tornadoes and moved onto land. They touched down in Queens and Long Island in Atlantic Beach. A tornado directly hit two locations. I don't yet know of the dam damage. I think it hit uh so far the Sun and Surf Beach Club and the Silver Point Beach Club there. Queens was placed under strict tornado warning until 7:15 in the evening. Emergency alerts told people to get to the lowest floor and stay away from the windows. Um, okay. Let's talk about Lakewood. Now, I don't exactly know more damage and reports. This is what I know so far. Lakewood families are facing huge price increase for school, school busing just days before the school year starts. The Lakewood Student Transportation Authority made an announcement today. The cost for extra busing is jumping up. It went from $385 to $945 per child. The transportation authorities sent an uh urgent letter, a notice to the parents explaining the sudden $560 jump. For the past 10 years, Lakewood Township has paid part of the busing costs. Now, New Jersey just took away a lot of the township state funding. Because of that, the township completely canled the bus money. The new price only affects families living inside Lakewood who do not who do not qualify for free busing um state busing. Anyway, this means elementary students who live 2 mi or less from the school basically are they are affected. It also affects high school students living 2 and a half miles or less. It does not affect families in Howell, Jackson or Tom's River. Let's talk about Shuama the light before we finish today's segments.
