  Speaker 1: Israel has been marking the third anniversary of the October
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: 7th massacre with a mix of solemn reflection and robust
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: political debate. National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Givir used an event
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: near the West Bank city of Tulkarm to call for
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: the dismantling of the Palestinian Authority, urging the confiscation of
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: its weapons, disarmament, and arrest of its officials. He stated,
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: we must not repeat that same mistake. The Palestinian Authority
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: must be dismantled. Meanwhile, MK Avigdor Liberman, visiting Kibbutz Kfar Aza,
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: accused the government of continuing to fund Hamas by allowing
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: aid into Gaza through the Kerem Shalom crossing, claiming Hamas
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: controls all incoming trucks. Former IDF Chief of Staff and
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: Yashar Party leader Gadi Eisenkot, who joined the emergency government
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: in October 2023, stated his decision was to save Israel
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: and bring unity, expressing no regret. However, he added that
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: current government policies represent a threat to our future in
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: the state of Israel. Mikkel Negri, whose son was killed
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: fighting on October 7, is running for the Knesset and
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: is calling for Israeli political leaders to take responsibility for
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: the day's failures. She emphasised the lack of a state
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: commission of inquiry three years post-massacre, saying, first of all,
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: Everyone that was in the government in any position of
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: management has to take responsibility and be inquired, so we
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: will be sure that it will never happen again. In
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: line with these security concerns, sources indicate that the IDF
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: and Border Police are launching multiple operations throughout the West
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: Bank to arrest and interrogate dozens of individuals wanted for
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: terrorism and incitement, particularly those who have expressed support for
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: the October 7 massacre. Separately, in the West Bank, A
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: 16-year-old boy was injured by stone throwing on a farm
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: near Olmen and evacuated to Shah Zedek Medical Centre in
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: Jerusalem with a head injury. War data released indicates 970
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: casualties and over 30,000 launches since the conflict began. In
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: a significant development concerning internal security, Shah Hanivo, a mathematics
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: professor at Bar-Ilan University, was indicted for allegedly plotting a
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: series of mass terrorist attacks with a nationalist motivation. According
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: to the indictment, Nevo's plan aimed for the forced mass
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: transfer of Palestinians and Arab Israelis. The plan, referred to
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: by Nevo as IT, or the People Will Carry Out Transfer,
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: envisioned simultaneous attacks by 12 cells of six individuals using
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: various weapons, targeting mixed cities and Arab communities. Bar-Ilan University
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: has suspended Nevo and condemned the alleged actions. Turning to
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: international relations, concerns have arisen that Israel may be jeopardising
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: its standing in the US visa waiver programme. A source
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: familiar with the matter told Waller that Israeli authorities are
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: worried the US could reassess Israel's compliance, following the failure
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: to properly screen an Omani copilot on a recent FlyJuby
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: flight to Israel. One of the programme's requirements involves Israel
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: receiving and reviewing all information concerning arriving passengers and air crews. Meanwhile,
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: senior Israeli defence officials have expressed concern that Iran might
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: miscalculate and launch missiles at Israel. This worry stems from
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: continued US pressure and Iran's worsening economic situation, attributed to
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: effective US blockades and sanctions, particularly targeting Iranian airlines. On
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: a more personal note, former hostage Lewis Ha, rescued after
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: 129 days in Hamas captivity, is sharing his testimony around
• 3:46
