- 0:12Speaker 1: As the world watches evolving regional dynamics and remembers critical events,
- 0:16Speaker 1: staying informed on Israel's security and resilience remains paramount. Today,
- 0:21Speaker 1: we bring you crucial updates from the National Security Council,
- 0:25Speaker 1: vital security assessments from the Shin Bet, and deeply personal
- 0:29Speaker 1: accounts from those affected by the conflict. beginning with a
- 0:32Speaker 1: significant security advisory. Israel's National Security Council is urging Israelis
- 0:37Speaker 1: and Jews overseas to exercise heightened vigilance. This warning, ahead
- 0:41Speaker 1: of the third anniversary of the October 7 massacre, highlights
- 0:45Speaker 1: possible attacks targeting Israelis and Jews by Iran and its proxies,
- 0:49Speaker 1: including Hamas and global jihad terror groups, as reported by
- 0:53Speaker 1: Jewish News 24. Travellers are advised to avoid demonstrations and
- 0:57Speaker 1: large gatherings. steer clear of Level 4 destinations such as Jordan, Qatar,
- 1:02Speaker 1: Somaliland and Egypt, and minimise speaking Hebrew in crowded areas
- 1:07Speaker 1: in Level 3 countries. They are also encouraged to avoid
- 1:10Speaker 1: posting travel plans or details about their security force service
- 1:13Speaker 1: on social media. Turning inward, the head of the Shin Bet,
- 1:17Speaker 1: David Zinni, has warned of unprecedented efforts by terrorist organisations
- 1:22Speaker 1: within Israel. Speaking to the Political Security Cabinet, He detailed
- 1:26Speaker 1: attempts to establish military infrastructure and quasi-military battalions in Bedouin
- 1:31Speaker 1: communities in the Negev. This concerning phenomenon is fuelled by
- 1:35Speaker 1: increasing involvement of Israeli citizens from Bedouin communities in terrorist incidents,
- 1:41Speaker 1: arms smuggling along the Egyptian border, and ties with terrorist
- 1:44Speaker 1: elements in the West Bank and Gaza. Officials point to
- 1:47Speaker 1: widespread weapons smuggling and nationalist and religious radicalisation. Amplified by
- 1:53Speaker 1: social media propaganda from groups like Hamas and ISIS, as
- 1:57Speaker 1: creating fertile ground for local armed organisations, counter-terrorism efforts by
- 2:02Speaker 1: the Shin Bet, Police and IDF are ongoing, aiming to
- 2:05Speaker 1: thwart these attempts in their initial stages. The challenging environment
- 2:09Speaker 1: was underscored during a recent conference in Rahat, where gunfire
- 2:13Speaker 1: was heard nearby, described by one participant as something that
- 2:16Speaker 1: must not become routine and a severe failure of the government.
- 2:20Speaker 1: From the deep personal impact of captivity, former Gaza hostage
- 2:24Speaker 1: Guy Gilboa Dalal has revealed the profound psychological toll, including
- 2:28Speaker 1: sexual abuse, he endured during more than two years held
- 2:32Speaker 1: by Hamas. In an interview coinciding with the three-year anniversary
- 2:36Speaker 1: of the October 7 massacre, Gilboa Dalal spoke about the
- 2:39Speaker 1: unexpected difficulty of rehabilitation upon returning home. He described nightmares,
- 2:45Speaker 1: self-blame and threats from his abductor, which made it difficult
- 2:48Speaker 1: to even confide in fellow captives about the abuse he suffered.
- 2:52Speaker 1: Gilboa Dalal was abducted from the Nova Festival and held
- 2:55Speaker 1: in harsh conditions within Gaza's tunnels before his return in
- 2:58Speaker 1: October 2025, after 738 days. The aftermath of October 7
- 3:05Speaker 1: continues to shape Israel's political landscape. Former hostage Gadi Moses
- 3:10Speaker 1: accused Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of opposing a state commission
- 3:13Speaker 1: of inquiry into the massacre due to political consequences. Speaking
- 3:18Speaker 1: in an interview with CAN News, Moses, who was held
- 3:21Speaker 1: for 482 days, stated that the absence of such a commission,
- 3:25Speaker 1: nearly three years after the event, remains a significant political
- 3:29Speaker 1: issue ahead of the October 27 election. Opposition parties have
- 3:33Speaker 1: pledged to establish an inquiry if they form the next government. Meanwhile,
- 3:38Speaker 1: a New Channel 16 news poll, reported by Jewish News 24,
- 3:42Speaker 1: indicates that Ofer Winter's party is crossing the electoral threshold.
- 3:46Speaker 1: while Yaron Zelik's party remains below it. Prime Minister Netanyahu's
- 3:50Speaker 1: bloc is projected to win 54 seats, falling short of
- 3:54Speaker 1: the 61 needed for a Knesset majority. For continuing coverage
