*OPERATIONAL UPDATE BY IDF SPOKESPERSON, REAR ADMIRAL DANIEL HAGARI, REGARDING THE SUCCESSFUL DEFENSE OF ISRAEL'S AIRSPACE OVERNIGHT*Last night, Iran initiated an attack against Israel, launching over 300 threats of various types. The Iranian threat met the aerial and technological superiority of the IDF, along with a strong fighting coalition - which together intercepted the overwhelming majority of the threats. 99% of the threats launched towards Israeli territory were intercepted - a very significant strategic achievement.Of approximately 170 unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) that Iran launched, zero crossed into Israeli territory. Dozens of them were intercepted by Israeli Air Force fighter jets, our Aerial Defense Array, and the aerial defense systems and aircraft of our partners.From the more than 30 cruise missiles Iran launched, none crossed into Israeli territory. 25 of them were intercepted by IAF fighter jets outside the country’s borders. Out of over 120 ballistic missiles, only a few crossed into Israeli territory, with the rest being intercepted. These fell at the Nevatim Air Force Base, causing only minor damage to infrastructure. As you can see, the base is operational and continues to carry out its missions. In the image, you can see the landing strip at the Nevatim base.Iran hoped to incapacitate the base and thus impair our aerial capabilities, but it failed. IAF aircraft continue to take off and land from the base and depart for offensive and defensive missions. This includes the ‘Adir’ fighter jets, which are now returning to the base from an aerial defense mission, and you will soon see them landing.In addition to the launches from Iran, several launches were made from the territories of Iraq and Yemen. None of them crossed into Israeli territory. In recent hours, dozens of rockets were fired from Lebanese territory toward the north; there were no casualties. Fighter jets struck Hezbollah targets across Lebanon, including Radwan targets. All this while additional aircraft continue their defense missions.Over the past six months, we have been operating in close coordination with our partners, led by US CENTCOM, the UK, France, and other countries that operated last night. This partnership has always been robust, but last night it was exceptionally evident. Last night we conducted a complex defensive air battle, with excellent performance by the IAF and the Intelligence Directorate. The battle was directed under the command of the Chief of the General Staff from the Israeli Air Force Operations Center.The interception capabilities of the Aerial Defense Array and the defensive abilities of the IAF aircraft, demonstrated exceptional professionalism as well as the IDF’s military and technological superiority. Thanks to all of this, the attack by Iran - was thwarted.Unfortunately, a ten-year-old girl was severely injured by shrapnel. We wish her a speedy recovery. Other than her, as far as we know, there are no additional casualties.However, it is important to say - the event is not over. We remain prepared and ready for further developments and threats. The guidelines of the Home Front Command remain and the restrictions are still in place, whereby educational activities including overnight stays and trips should not be conducted. Should there be any changes to the guidelines, we will update you immediately, transparently and responsibly, as we did last night - this is how we will continue.The exemplary conduct on the Home Front throughout the night is worthy of appreciation, and it is necessary to continue to act responsibly, calmly, and without panic. We will do everything we can to ensure that the public receives the most relevant information as quickly as possible.Throughout the night, the IDF conducted a situational assessment in response to developments. The Chief of the General Staff approved plans moving forward, which were presented to the political echelon. Iran committed a very serious act tonight, pushing the Middle East towards escalation. We are doing and will do everything necessary to protect the security of the civilians of the State of Israel.Alongside tonight's developments, we have not for a moment forgotten about the 133 hostages held in Gaza. We will continue to do everything possible to bring them home as soon as possible.🎥 youtu.be/pmzrm1HG5RoISRAEL REALTIME — "Connecting the World to Israel in Realtime"🔹WhatsApp Link: chat.whatsapp.com/BE245gqWlLrCAFkizZxCPg🔹 Telegram Channel Link: t.me/Israel_Realtime_Updates ...

So many opinions, theologies, denominations, and traditions separate believers from one another. Especially when we’ve been raised within Christian households, we can be so quick to notice the “unbiblical” parts of a person or our differences with other believers that we forget to look at people the way God does. (1 Samuel 16:7) This revelation saddens me because I know the Lord loves nothing more than His children coming together to worship His name in unity and love! So, how do we bring change?As I continued my study of John this month, I noticed how Yeshua spoke, interacted, and dwelt among the people. Everything He did, even when He confronted people about their sins, was done with humility and grace. No one is greater or less than in the Kingdom of God; Yeshua showed us this when He knelt to wash His disciples’ feet during the Last Supper. (John 13:1-17) Unfortunately, we have made a bad habit of putting people (or ourselves) on pedestals like they possess something more than our fellow believers. We are so tangled in the technicalities of things that we think “standing out” and isolating ourselves from those who preach or believe differently from us will make Yeshua’s light shine brighter, but it actually becomes a hindrance.”I have set you an example that you should do as I have done for you. Very truly I tell you, no servant is greater than his master, nor is a messenger greater than the one who sent him.” ~ John 13:15-16 NIVNo matter your beliefs, Yeshua’s time on earth taught us that walking in His ways leads to grace and freedom. When we tether ourselves to HIM rather than religion or man’s teachings, our ears are open to those crying out to God for deliverance. So, rather than focusing on what we disagree on, I believe that by returning to the foundation of our faith and asking God to help us see through His eyes, we’ll restore the bridge separating us from one another.inspire-truth.com/word-of-encouragement-john-13-15#inspiretruth #verseoftheday #bible #yeshua #jesus #washingfeetlikejesus #unity #love ...

Every year, the Chiang Mai Flower Festival draws in crowds of eager tourists and locals alike to experience a vibrant spectacle of colors and scents that infuse the city with a festive air. This amazing three-day event, steeped in over four decades of tradition, takes place the first weekend of every February and signals the arrival of warmer days. Throughout the weekend, the city is abuzz with celebrations and events for all ages!After a well-deserved day of relaxation and reading, Soleil and I ate dinner at the Anusarn Night Market before making our way to Nong Buak Haad Park for the festival’s opening ceremony. We didn’t know what to expect, but as we followed the crowds to the park, our eyes widened in amazement at the spectacle before us. The normally serene park had been magically transformed into a wonderland of captivating flower structures, lights, and exhibits. We had so much fun immersing ourselves in the mesmerizing light displays, stopping intermittently to marvel at the intricate floral arrangements and imaginative artistry. The following morning, we headed back to Nong Buak Haad Park to witness the yearly parade and were greeted with a symphony of vibrant costumes, traditional music, and the pièce de résistance — twenty magnificent flower floats! The parade was a tapestry of Thai culture, blending ancient traditions with modern flair. Every step resonated with Thailand’s history and artistry, from schoolchildren in traditional outfits showcasing their talents to seasoned participants proudly displaying their agricultural heritage.Experiences like this, immersed in culture and shared with a dear friend, created unforgettable memories in my travel diaries. I’m so grateful I got to experience the Chiang Mai Flower Festival with Soleil. It was the perfect start to our epic Thailand adventure. Now, it’s time to devour more street food before an early wake-up call for our elephant adventure!! AHHH!
