ISRAEL UNDER FIRE - A home in Sderot is hit and four family members are now in the hospital undergoing surgery. A synagogue and playground are also hit. Families sleep together in safe rooms. The situation is intolerable and the IDF must take control.

Defeating the enemy is the ONLY option!!

Unfortunately it was a very tense and trying weekend as Hamas fired 200 rockets and mortar shells from the Gaza Strip into Israel. Attempts were made to breach the security fence and infiltrate Israel from the northern Gaza Strip. The IDF responded accordingly..

Read the full IDF report.

More on this subject:

Weekend rocket attacks saw four Israelis injured at home.

Synagogue hit by rocket - Major Keren Hajioff reports.

Hamas does not decide ceasfire. PM Netanyahu, at the urging of Sderot Mayor Alon Davidi, visited the residents of the south and listened to their feelings over the difficult weekend they experienced. Davidi clearly stated that there should be no ceasefire and that Israel must strike back hard at the terrorists.

Israel's Unique Opportunity

Having President Trump in the White House is a unique opportunity for Israel, but is Israel taking full advantage of this opportunity?

Under President Obama, Netanyahu's slogan was "Not one single brick" whenever community leaders urged him to approve new construction. Under President Trump, AFSI has witnessed on our Chizuk missions, the new Amichai being built - for those expelled from Amona - the first community in the Shomron in 25 years. If the U.S. is not standing in the way of new construction, why does construction of new housing seem to be decreasing instead of increasing.

Why? Story HERE.

More on Israel's Iran Nuke Operation

Months after Israel successfully captured a treasure trove of secret documents relating to Iran's nuclear weapons program, it has now disclosed additional information on this mission.

What's in Barbie's Backpack?

Israeli security forces arrested 19 terror suspects in raids across Judea and Samaria overnight on Sunday, confiscating multiple illegal guns in Hebron along with thousands of shekels marked to fund terror acts.

A Barbie backpack was found to have a submachine gun in it.

Stories We're Watching

Paying Attention. In President Trump's meeting with President Putin, it was noted that Trump 'paid particular attention' to Israel's security needs.

Tougher Response. In response to more incendiary balloons, the IAF struck two Hamas posts in the Gaza Strip.

Flammable Falcon. A falcon flying over the Negev was found to have a flammable substance tied to its leg.

Tunnel Collapse. 1 killed, 3 injured in tunnel collapse near Beit Shean. AFSI's Chizuk Mission visited there in April.

Reprieve Issued. Supreme Court grants one month reprieve to illegal Bedouin outpost
