Welcome to The Times of Israel’s Daily Briefing, your 15-minute audio update on what’s happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world, from Sunday through Thursday.

Military correspondent Emanuel Fabian and legal reporter Jeremy Sharon join host Amanda Borschel-Dan on today's episode.

Yesterday evening, a member of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad terror group opened fire in a bustling area of Tel Aviv and critically shot 42-year-old patrolman Chen Amir, a married father of three. What do we know about the incident and its perpetrator?

Two settlers suspected in the killing of a Palestinian man on Friday have been remanded until Wednesday. We hear about the suspects, Elisha Yered, a former spokesman for the far-right Otzma Yehudit party’s MK Limor Son Har-Melech, and Yehiel Indore.

Last week Fabian toured the area straddling Israel’s northern border with Lebanon. We hear his first-hand impressions on how Hezbollah's escalations are affected residents.

On Thursday, the High Court held a hearing over the recusal amendment to a Basic Law and a lot of very strong statements. Sharon weighs in on what we could see coming out from the court.

Discussed articles include:

Terrorist kills patrolman in Tel Aviv, is shot dead by 2nd officer

Lawyers for settlers suspected in killing of Palestinian claim self-defense

Jitters grow along Lebanon border as Hezbollah provocations become more brazen
