The Times of Israel Daily Briefing

Was Israel behind senior Lion's Den member's assassination?

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.

Editor David Horovitz and military correspondent Emanuel Fabian join host Amanda Borschel-Dan on today's episode.

Lion’s Den member Tamer Kilani, a member of the upstart Palestinian terror organization, was killed early Sunday by an explosive device attached to a motorcycle detonated in Nablus’s Old City. Why or why not could Israel be behind the killing?

Yesterday, the Kan television channel aired a recording of Religious Zionist head Bezalel Smotrich that was apparently made last year in which he sounded pretty disloyal to opposition head Benjamin Netanyahu. What was on the recording?

We hear why Horovitz thinks that the November 1 elections will indeed be decisive.

Three men from northern Israel were indicted on Thursday for allegedly sending a large volume of sensitive information to the Hamas terror group in Turkey, and for plans to sabotage Israel’s cellular network in a future war. We hear why this is so dangerous to the IDF.

Finally, Horovitz briefly compares Israel's chaotic electoral processes with that of England.

Discussed articles include:

Alleged assassination in Nablus may signal major Israeli policy change in West Bank

Senior member of Palestinian terror group Lion’s Den killed in Nablus explosion

Smotrich: Netanyahu ‘lying through his teeth,’ was desperate to ally with Ra’am

Why this election is a defining moment for Israel, how it’s run, what it stands for

3 Israelis charged in Hamas plot to sabotage telecom networks used by IDF during war

Why the British public is not choosing its leader
