— 🇮🇱 NEW: Former Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, who has an arrest warrant from the International Criminal Court, says that during his tenure, he ordered an investigation into the leak of the video of Israeli soldiers raping prisoners in Sde Teiman and to bring the leaker 'to justice'
He criticizes the IDF's chief lawyer, who submitted a resignation letter over the investigation into the video.
So far, the outrage in the Israeli political class and society is not due to the fact that IDF soldiers sexually assault prisoners, but rather the fact that a video of them doing so has leaked.
High-profile cases of rape, including the rape of children, are prevalent in Israel. In June, there was a scandal involving top rabbis and Knesset members who had engaged in the sexual abuse of children.
In 2011, a study revealed that 61% of Israeli men do not consider forced sex with an acquaintance to be rape.
A few years ago, it was reported that out of 654 Thai foreign workers in Israel who were questioned, every single one, meaning 100% of them, reported that they had been sexually abused by Israelis.

— 🇺🇸 NEW: U.S. National Intelligence Director Tulsi Gabbard claims the era of American-backed regime change operations is over:
'For decades, our foreign policy has been trapped in a counterproductive and endless cycle of regime change and nation building.
Toppling regimes, trying to impose our system of governance on others, intervening in conflicts that were barely understood, and walking away with more enemies than allies.
The results: trillions spent, countless lives lost, and in many cases, the creation of greater security threats.'
This comes as the United States prepares for regime change in Venezuela, largely believed to be engineered by Secretary of State Marco Rubio.

— 🇷🇺/🇺🇦 NEW: A Ukrainian attempt to land special forces to plant the Ukrainian flag on the entrance to the city of Pokrovsk failed
Two American-made UH-60 'Black Hawk' helicopters carrying personnel from Ukraine's Military Intelligence (GUR) landed in the fields near the entrance but were immediately attacked by Russian FPV drones, who tracked the landings.
Last week, Russian forces captured the entrance, after which Ukraine used FPV drones to destroy the flag that had been raised on the gate.
