In The US House of Representatives rejected the War Powers Act proposal intended to prevent President Trump from continuing the war in Iran without Congress's approval. Last night, the bill was also rejected in the Senate.

In Ultra-Orthodox protesters attempt to invade military police chief's home, Dozens of haredi protesters arrived Thursday night at the Ashkelon home of Brigadier-General Yuval Yamin, the head of the military police, in a demonstration against the arrests of haredi draft dodgers by the military police. Police arrived at the scene in an attempt to disperse them. The IDF denounced the protests, saying, "We strongly condemn any attempt to harm security forces personnel and their families," according to a report from N12 News. Groups of ultra-Orthodox men have repeatedly conducted protests amid increasing tensions regarding a haredi draft bill in the Knesset. Last week, haredi protesters broke into Yamin's yard at a time when his family was home. Protestors also blocked the Bar-Ilan street area of Jerusalem on Sunday, disrupting public order and movement in the area, according to police statements. The police said that, while freedom of expression and lawful protests are allowed, it would not permit a "blatant violation of public order." Earlier this week, IDF Chief of Staff Lieutenant-General Eyal Zamir pushed for large numbers of haredim to be drafted into the military, citing manpower shortages. The IDF "must grow, and quickly," he said.

In The Israel parade on Manhattan’s Fifth Avenue this year is slated to have a Muslim group marching alongside Jewish organizations in what is believed to be a first time in the parade’s 61-year history. Anila Ali, board chair and president of the nonprofit American Muslim & Multifaith Women’s Empowerment Council, intends to lead group that she expects will include about 30 people in the annual event, which takes place on New York’s iconic Fifth Avenue, alongside Central Park.
