HEADLINES US Iran talks begin amid looming conflict Epstein files fuel antisemitic conspiracy surge Barak calls aliyah policy a moral failure The time is now 12:01 AM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report. In the conflict with Iran and its Regional Proxies, negotiations between the United States and Iran are expected to begin at 10:00 in Oman time (8:00 in Israel), according to reports. Wittkop is already in Oman, and overnight reports indicate CENTCOM commander Brad Cooper has joined him. In Antisemitism and Anti-Jewish Hate, the latest Epstein files release unleashes antisemitic conspiracy theories on social media. The material includes emails that reference the High Holidays and deploy Jewish phrases like goyim in a disparaging manner. The Justice Department’s newly released batch of Epstein files, more than 3 million pages, has intensified online discourse, with posts portraying Epstein as part of a satanic global elite that pulls the strings from the shadows. A Twitter/X account named Clandestine, with hundreds of thousands of followers, has circulated claims that Epstein was part of a satanic global elite and a Deep State puppet master, accompanying references to a bank account named for an ancient god in Israel and a “synagogue of Satan,” and questions about Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s alleged visit to China. In Israeli Domestic Politics, editorial commentary condemns Ehud Barak’s remarks about aliyah as a moral failure. The reporting attributes to Barak statements that Israel could absorb another million immigrants from Russian-speaking countries and that authorities should be more selective than during the mass aliyah of the 1990s, aiming for “quality” among new arrivals, a phrase critics say reduces people to a sorting standard, with the piece urging that “Quality control” belongs to products, not people. In Israeli Economy and Business, Israel Hayom reports an increase of up to 20% in the costs of various dosages of Wegovy, Mounjaro, and Ozempic in supplementary insurance plans, with an obesity specialist warning that patients may forego essential medical treatment due to financial pressures.
