03:43โขTrump Demands Netanyahu Trial Cancellation
โจThe newspapers report on Trump's unprecedented intervention in Israeli domestic affairs, with the U.S. President demanding immediate cancellation of Netanyahu's corruption trial and calling it a "ridiculous witch hunt" (13tv, Haaretz, Mako, n12, now14, Srugim, Times, Kipa, Kan). Trump declared Netanyahu a "war hero" and "perhaps the greatest fighter in Israel's history," promising that "the US will save Bibi" after saving Israel from Iran. Meanwhile, Israeli media focus on mounting military criticism following the Khan Younis incident that killed seven soldiers, with reports of exhausted fighters, retiring officers, and systemic failures in equipment and war management after 629 days of fighting (Maariv). Military sources tell Channel 12 that current Gaza operations "don't bring results," as the government prepares restricted discussions on Gaza's future direction (n12). Soldiers express frustration with stagnant fighting, demanding either decisive action or withdrawal from Gaza (Walla).
