The UN Security Council Resolution: Gaza, Jerusalem, Baku, Washington, Ankara, and Riyadh
It is not clear how the theory of the Trump plan will be implemented in practice - and above all it is still unclear how Hamas will be disarmed.

Are Israel's friends in Baku, Azerbaijan going to help solve this conundrum, and finally, have Israel Update's listeners managed to explain to Mike and Gadi what a conundrum is? And here are the links we promised:

Major General Yifat Tomer Yerushalmi the head of the IDF prosecution resigned in disgrace over the affair – and was reported missing while we were recording this session. It turned out that she is alive, and just “lost” her phone in the sea while attempting suicide (or staging such an attempt).

Tommy Robinson in Israel
