Israel's opposition leaders said Wednesday they submitted a bill to dissolve parliament, which if successful could start paving the way to a snap election. Ultra-Orthodox parties that are propping up Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's government are threatening to vote for the motion. "The opposition faction leaders have decided to bring the bill to dissolve the Knesset to a vote in the Knesset plenum today. The decision was made unanimously and is binding on all factions," the leaders said in a statement, adding that all their parties would freeze their ongoing legislation to focus on "the overthrow of the government".

Greta Thunberg hits back at Donald Trump after Gaza detention: ‘we need more angry women', says activist deported by Israel
Swedish environmental activist Greta Thunberg has responded to the U.S. President Donald Trump's recent remarks about her temperament. Trump had described her as a 'strange' and 'angry young person' following her involvement in an aid mission to Gaza, which ended in her brief detention by Israeli forces. Trump criticises Thunberg after Israeli detention The exchange began after Thunberg was detained by Israeli authorities while aboard the Madleen, a British-flagged vessel participating in the Freedom Flotilla's mission to deliver humanitarian supplies to Gaza. The boat, part of a coalition-led pro-Palestine effort, left Italy on June 1. Responding to the incident, Trump commented, 'Anger management — I think she has to go to an anger management class. That's my primary recommendation for her… Israel has enough problems without kidnapping Greta Thunberg.' Thunberg had earlier described her team's detainment as 'kidnapping' by Israeli forces. Israel rejected those allegations, calling them unfounded. Officials stated that the activists were deported in line with international legal standards. Thunberg responds to Trump and defends her actions Following her deportation, Thunberg landed in Paris and addressed the media at Charles de Gaulle Airport. When asked about Trump's remarks, she said, 'I think the world needs many more young angry women, to be honest. Especially with everything going on right now. That's the thing we need the most of.' She also stood by her criticism of Israeli authorities. Speaking to reporters, Thunberg accused Israel of breaching international obligations, stating, 'This is yet another intentional violation of rights that is added to the list of countless other violations that Israel is committing.' She added that her boat was intercepted early Monday and her team was forcibly taken to Israel—actions she considers to be violations of both maritime and human rights law. Longstanding tensions between Thunberg and Trump The confrontation adds to a history of public disagreement between the two figures. Their exchange dates back to 2019, when Trump responded sarcastically to Thunberg's United Nations speech, calling her a 'very happy young girl.' Later that year, after Thunberg was named Time Magazine's 'Person of the Year,' Trump again mocked her on social media, suggesting she 'work on her Anger Management problem' and 'chill.' Thunberg's recent remarks and Trump's criticism reflect ongoing tensions, now amplified by the international spotlight on Gaza and aid missions.

Pakistani citizen residing in Canada Khan extradited to US on charges of spying for ISIS
CHANDIGARH: A Pakistani national residing in Canada, Muhammad Shahzeb Khan has been extradited to the United States on charges of attempting to provide material support to ISIS and attempting to commit acts of terrorism. FBI Director Kash Patel wrote on X, "Major news… earlier this afternoon, Muhammad Shahzeb Khan, a Pakistani citizen residing in Canada, was extradited to the United States on charges of attempting to provide material support to ISIS and attempting to commit acts of terrorism." "In the fall of last year, Khan allegedly planned to travel from Canada to New York and carry out a mass shooting in support of ISIS at a Jewish Center in Brooklyn. Khan allegedly planned his attack to occur on October 7, 2024 — the one year anniversary of the Hamas terrorist attack in Israel." "Thankfully, the great work of FBI teams and our partners exposed those plans and shut them down — and Khan was arrested by Canadian authorities on September 4, 2024. He has now arrived in the U.S. and will face American justice. This case is a reminder of the constant threat of terrorism facing every corner of the world — as well as the disturbing rise in threats against our Jewish communities." "Your FBI will continue to be on guard and work around the clock to counter them. @NewYorkFBI @FBIChicago and @FBILosAngeles did great work in this case with our partners and we thank them,'' the post read.
