Exhausted 'Israeli' soldiers question claims of success in Gaza: Haaretz

In an embedded tour for reporters in the northern Gaza Strip, 'Israeli' soldiers have voiced widespread exhaustion and skepticism about their military's reported achievements, while officers were caught staging a firefight for the media, a recent report by Haaretz showed. During a guided tour of Beit Hanoun, which was described as a "flattened city," soldiers told reporters they are worn out from multiple combat tours. One soldier declared he would not return to Gaza after his current tour, stating, "People don't understand what attrition is. ... People here are exhausted." Another reservist, a software engineer, said he was fired after his first tour and has struggled to find work since. A reservist from the Corps of Engineers claimed that less than 10% of the original force from the beginning of the war is still serving, with the rest being "mercenaries." Soldiers on the ground also questioned the official casualty numbers. Colonel Netanel Shamka, the brigade commander, told reporters his forces had killed 201 "terrorists." However, a soldier told Haaretz that forces focus on attacking suspects with drones and then attempt to identify the dead, adding that a broad definition may be used to count fighters. One soldier testified they had not engaged Hamas targets in weeks. Since the start of a recent operation, the combat team has destroyed 657 homes in northern Gaza. The tour concluded with an apparent staged event. As reporters prepared to film, two officers instructed ground forces to "open fire so that they could hear some shooting in the background of the footage."

China accuses US of exploiting Microsoft zero-day in cyberattack

Ammon News - U.S. intelligence agencies launched cyberattacks on two Chinese military enterprises dating back to 2022, in one case exploiting a Microsoft zero-day, China alleged Friday. The Cyber Security Association of China said that in the first case, U.S. agencies from July of 2022 to July of 2023 'exploited a zero-day vulnerability in Microsoft Exchange Mail to attack and control the mail server of a major Chinese military enterprise for nearly a year,' according to a Google translation of the statement. They then used that access to steal data, the statement continues. In the second case, the association said the U.S. agencies 'launched a cyberattack against a Chinese military enterprise in the communications and satellite internet sectors' from July to November of last year by exploiting vulnerabilities in electronic file systems, where they also stole information. The statement didn't name either enterprise. While Chinese allegations of U.S. government hacking have become increasingly common — including a batch of allegations in April and in December of last year — the latest accusation is notable for its assertion that the agencies exploited a zero-day, or previously unknown and unpatched vulnerability, at U.S.-headquarted Microsoft. Last week, Microsoft accused Chinese government-linked hackers of exploiting zero-days in its Sharepoint product in its own most recent finger-pointing at Beijing. The Office of the Director of National Intelligence did not immediately respond to a request for comment Friday. Asked on Fox News in June about Chinese hacking and theft of U.S. intellectual property, President Donald Trump answered bluntly. 'You don't think we do that to them? We do. We do a lot of things,' Trump said. 'That's the way the world works. It's a nasty world.' China has also alleged cyberattacks from other governments, particularly from Taiwan, even as it has focused much of its attention on the United States. It tallied 600 foreign government-level attacks in 2024 alone. 'Hacker groups, particularly those affiliated with US intelligence agencies, leverage established cyberattack teams, extensive supporting engineering systems, a standardized attack equipment arsenal, and robust vulnerability analysis and discovery capabilities to conduct attacks and infiltration against [China's] critical information infrastructure, important information systems, and key personnel, posing a serious threat to national cybersecurity,' the Friday statement reads.

"Triple H" joins Trump in presidential fitness test announcement

Ammon News - President Donald Trump signed an executive order on July 31, reinstating the presidential fitness test. The fitness test, which was overhauled under President Barack Obama, requires students to do physical challenges, including push-ups and running a mile. "This is an important step in our mission to make America healthy again," Trump said at the signing, where he also reinstated the President's Council on Physical Fitness and Sports. Trump had with him several prominent athletes and sports figures, some of whom will be appointed to that council. Who is Triple H? Paul Levesque, known as "Triple H," is a former wrestler and the chief content officer for the World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE). He has also been known in the wrestling world as The Connecticut Blue Blood, The King of Kings, The Cerebral Assassin and The Game. His WWE bio states he is in the WWE Hall of Fame, class of 2025. "(A) man who you're not gonna mess around with," Trump called him at the event, shortly before patting him on the arm and squeezing his bicep. "Very strong. He's a strong guy." What is the presidential fitness test? The presidential fitness test originally consisted of five events: The one-mile run, pull-ups or flexed-arm hang, sit-ups, shuttle run and the sit-and-reach. Right-angle push-ups were later incorporated. It first became part of physical education classes under President Dwight Eisenhower in 1956, but sunsetted in the 2012-2013 school year under the Obama administration. The fitness test was dropped to shift focus from students' performance to overall health as they grow up. The executive order signed by Trump said the administration is bringing back the test due to the high rates of obesity and chronic disease in the U.S.
