The story of the Star of David is rooted in the Land of Israel yet also stretches across continents and centuries. A symbol that the people of Israel carried through exile, diaspora and back to the modern State of Israel.

At the ANU Museum, the Star of David appears throughout, telling its story, carrying identity and values wherever it went.

Foreign Minister Gideon Sa'ar:

"The Jewish rioters in Judea and Samaria harm the State of Israel, disgrace Judaism, and cause damage to the settlement project.
They are not us. They are not the State of Israel.
The IDF, the Shin Bet, and the Israel Police must act decisively and firmly to stop this rampage, which is also directed at our soldiers and police officers."

The State of Israel submitted today to the Appeals Chamber of the International Criminal Court (ICC) a request to disqualify the Court's Prosecutor, Mr. Karim Khan, from involvement in proceedings concerning Israel. Additionally, Israel requests that the Court cancel the baseless arrest warrants issued by the Prosecutor against the Prime Minister, Mr. Benjamin Netanyahu, and the former Minister of Defense, Mr. Yoav Gallant.

The request was submitted following information and grave reports raising serious concern that the Prosecutor acted out of improper personal motives to advance false and unfounded allegations against Israel. These actions were intended to divert public attention from severe accusations against him of serial sexual harassment of a subordinate employee. In this context, the Prosecutor advanced baseless and outrageous warrants against the Prime Minister and the former Minister of Defense of a democratic state.

The State of Israel emphasizes that the contamination of the proceedings caused by the Prosecutor's conduct is profound and irreparable. Therefore, Israel requests that the Court's Appeals Chamber disqualify the Prosecutor from involvement in cases relating to Israel and to declare that the arrest warrants issued against the Prime Minister and the former Minister of Defense are of no force or effect.

The aforementioned request in no way affects Israel's other claims regarding the invalidity of the warrants, including due to the Court's lack of jurisdiction.

Prime Minister Netanyahu's Statement on the UN Security Council's Resolution on President Trump's Gaza Plan

The State of Israel and Prime Minister Netanyahu applaud President Trump and his tireless and devoted team. The courage and sacrifice of our brave soldiers, along with President Trump’s diplomatic efforts, have helped bring home all of the living hostages and most of the deceased ones.

The United Nations Security Council fully endorses President Trump‘s 20 Point Plan, and the appointment of the Board of Peace to be led by President Trump. We believe that President Trump‘s plan will lead to peace and prosperity because it insists upon full demilitarization, disarmament and the deradicalization of Gaza. True to President Trump’s vision, this will lead to further integration of Israel and its neighbors as well as expansion of Abraham Accords. President Trump’s breakthrough leadership will help lead the region to peace and prosperity and a lasting alliance with the United States.

In cooperation with the United States and other countries signed on President Trump’s plan, we expect to receive all of the deceased hostages with no delay and to begin the process of disarming and demilitarizing the Gaza Strip and ending Hamas’ rule over Gaza per President Trump’s and Ambassador Waltz’s statements.

Israel extends its hand in peace and prosperity to all of our neighbors and calls on them to normalize relations with Israel and join us in expelling Hamas and its supporters from the region.

Joshua Loitu Mollel🕯️

Today, we held a farewell ceremony at Ben Gurion Airport. Joshua’s body now flies home to Tanzania.
Mungu ailaze roho yake mahala pema peponi ~ May God rest his soul in peace.

Only 21, an agricultural student in 🇮🇱Israel from 🇹🇿Tanzania. Barely weeks after Joshua arrived, Hamas terrorists took him hostage on October 7, 2023, then killed him in captivity in Gaza.

While Joshua wasn’t Israeli, over the past 2 years we adopted him into our hearts. An innocent life, full of promise, stolen too soon.

RIP Joshua 💔

Foreign Minister Gideon Sa'ar:

"Today, Palestinian terrorists struck the heart of Israel. The car ramming and stabbing in Gush Etzion, right outside of Jerusalem, killed a 71-year old man and injured 3 civilians.

The Palestinian Authority refuses to condemn this heinous terror attack,
and continues its “pay for slay” policy.

This further demonstrates why a Palestinian state cannot and will not be established."

Aid is flowing into Gaza. Hundreds of trucks daily carrying food, medical equipment and shelter supplies.

This is Gaza over the last week:

Foreign Minister Gideon Sa'ar:

"The Palestinian Authority hasn’t stopped its payments of salaries to terrorists and their families. In fact, it is nearly doubling them.

In 2024, it paid 144 million dollars (€124M). In 2025, it has already committed 214 MILLION dollars (€185M) toward Pay-for-Slay, and the year isn’t even over.

I call on Europe and the world to hold the PA accountable for funding terrorism.

Stop Pay-for-Slay NOW!"

❌*Blatant Ceasefire Violation: Hezbollah Terrorist Organization Is Operating To Reestablish Its Assets in the Village of Beit Lif*

IDF troops identified dozens of terrorist infrastructure sites in the village, including:
•Headquarters
•Weapons storage facilities belonging to the Hezbollah terrorist organization.

Hezbollah hides these assets inside civilian homes and adjacent to civilian buildings and facilities, endangering the residents of Beit Lif.

This is one of many examples of Hezbollah’s attempts to reestablish its assets in severe violation of the understandings between Israel and Lebanon. Hezbollah continues to endanger the villages and their residents while exploiting the civilian environment to advance terrorist activities.

Two Palestinian terrorists murdered a 71-year-old Israeli. The father of one of them now says his greatest hope was to be the father of a martyr. This is what the Palestinian education syllabus delivers.

Now the proud father can draw the Palestinian Authority’s Pay-For-Slay stipend rewarding terror.

Foreign Minister Gideon Sa'ar:

"I commend the countries that refrained from supporting the extension of UNRWA’s mandate in the vote that was just held at the UN.

The significant increase in the number of countries opposing (10 compared to 3), alongside the sharp drop in those supporting (from 165 to 149), is encouraging and important. It's worth noting that some of the countries that abstained are themselves donors to UNRWA.

This reflects the beginning of a recognition within the international community of UNRWA’s negative role, which was infiltrated by Hamas, and whose employees participated in the Oct. 7th massacre. Israel will not cooperate with UNRWA, in accordance with the law passed by the Knesset.

UNRWA is part of the problem. It is not part of the solution.

I thank the United States, Argentina, Hungary, Paraguay, North Macedonia, Fiji, Papua New Guinea, Palau, and Tonga for voting against the resolution.

I also appreciate the abstentions of Germany, Italy, the Czech Republic, Bulgaria, Latvia, Ethiopia, Cameroon, the Democratic Republic of Congo, the Central African Republic, Madagascar, Micronesia, Nauru, and Samoa.

This is a clear message to the UN and to UNRWA: the old reality is over!"

build infrastructure and recruit terrorist cells in Europe and other arenas, similar to the Iranian regime and its proxies. Even now, the Mossad continues its determined activity to thwart dozens of attack channels around the world as part of its responsibility to thwart terrorism abroad and its commitment to the security and defense of Israel.

Attached are photographs of Basem Na'im and Muhammad Na'im, as well as pictures of the seized weapons and a map of the current operational centers of the thwarted Hamas infrastructure.
