In a severe escalation, Palestinian terrorists fired a rocket at Be’er Sheva, striking and demolishing a home. There were no Israeli casualties in the attack.
HonestReporting called on CTV National News to ‘issue an on-air corrective to remedy the erroneous and misleading statement it broadcast’ that Israel destroyed a Gaza cultural center, when in fact the IAF conducted a strike against Hamas’ headquarters.
Conflicting reports surfaced regarding a delegation from the United Arab Emirates that purportedly visited Israel recently to learn about the F-35 stealth fighter.
During an Israeli Independence Day aerial show, the IAF will be joined by fighter planes from Greece and Italy, and other aircraft from Poland, Canada, England, and Austria.
In what appears to be a first, or at least made public for the first time, Israel is conducting a joint military exercise with Muslim countries together with the US Air Force.
Anticipating the arrival in Israel this year of the new F-35 stealth fighter jet, IAF pilots are training in the US, while production has entered an advanced stage.
