IDF , US ran covert rescue operations from Iraq during Iran war

The Israeli Defense Forces established a covert rescue team in Iraq during recent operations against Iran, with IDF special forces positioned to extract any downed pilots, according to disclosures by The Jerusalem Post on April 6 following reports by The Wall Street Journal and Qatari media. No Israeli pilots were ultimately shot down, and the operation involved unprecedented direct coordination between Israeli and U.S. Air Force units, including refueling over Iraqi airspace, though the Iraqi government publicly objected to the Israeli presence once disclosed.

IDF Eyal Zamir pushes Knesset FADC to help draft haredim

IDF Chief of Staff Lt.-Gen. Eyal Zamir told the Knesset Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee in a closed session on Sunday that the military requires large-scale conscription of ultra-Orthodox (haredi) personnel and passage of laws extending mandatory and reserve service to address a severe manpower shortage, warning in March that the IDF could collapse without solutions. Zamir's remarks follow his leaked March statement to the security cabinet flagging ten critical concerns; relations between the IDF leadership and FADC Chairman Boaz Bismuth remain strained over disputed interpretations of the conscription issue and prior leaks from the committee.

Iran war : Ceasefire tested by ship fire , drone attacks

Iran's military said it has established a "new legal and security system" in the Strait of Hormuz requiring vessels from countries imposing sanctions on Tehran to coordinate passage, while drone attacks on Kuwait and the UAE, Israeli airstrikes in Lebanon killing at least seven civilians, and a cargo vessel fire off Qatar tested the fragile US-Iran ceasefire that began in late February. The US awaits Iran's formal response to its latest peace proposal, with Qatar and Pakistan mediating amid continued maritime incidents and cross-border strikes despite both sides publicly maintaining the ceasefire remains in effect.

Israeli soldiers say orders were to kill any man encountered in Gaza

An Israeli soldier told Channel 13 that troops received orders to kill any man encountered in Gaza without exception, and described shooting an Israeli captive (Yotam Haim) in December 2023 despite the captive waving a white flag; the soldier's testimony contradicts the Israeli military's official investigation findings and prompted criticism of rules of engagement. The investigation, conducted by journalist Raviv Drucker, found that a commander involved in the incident was later promoted by the military's chief of staff, and that soldiers' accounts indicated no halt-fire order was issued, contrary to the army's claims.

Guevara Rosas stated the expected release "does not amount to justice," citing allegations of abuse during detention and broader concerns about arbitrary Palestinian detentions under what she characterized as an apartheid system.
