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 news editor Amy Spiro join host Amanda Borschel-Dan.

Shots were fired at a bus carrying Israeli soldiers on a major highway in the Jordan Valley on Sunday, injuring seven people. Footage published Monday showed the moments after the attack. What do we know about the victims and the search for the gunmen?

The IDF finally released a long-awaited report of an internal investigation that looked into the death of Al Jazeera journalist Shireen Abu Akleh. What were the findings and how did the United States react?

54-year-old Maj. Gen. Herzi Halevi was named the next IDF chief of staff. What do we know about him as a soldier -- and a person?

The IDF also announced the appointment of Lt. Col. Yarden Shukron Yifrah as head of the 498th Shahar (Dawn) Battalion. Yifrah will be the first woman to command a Home Front Command search and rescue unit. Why is this significant?

Pnina Lahav’s new biography of prime minister Golda Meir, "The Only Woman in the Room," asks whether she was a feminist or not. Why isn't this question clear-cut?

Spiro tells us about “Mo,” a new sitcom from comedian Mohammed Amer. Worth watching? And to close the program, she delves into the "tragic" break-up of musicians Static and Ben-El.
