Dear A.,
One Israeli was

killed and four others were injured today in a terror shooting attack along the Route 4 highway near Yavne, south of Tel Aviv.
The victim, a 33-year-old Israeli police officer, First Sgt. Adir Kadosh, was planning to get married in November. The terrorist was identified as 28-year-old Muhammad Dardouna, a Palestinian who entered Israel illegally from the West Bank.
Today’s attack is the latest in a string of deadly terror attacks since the start of the High Holidays — following deadly shooting and stabbing attacks in Jaffa, Beersheba and Hadera.
The West Bank is just one of the seven Iranian-backed fronts that have been used to attack Israel since October 7.

Meanwhile, Israel is continuing to face attacks from Iranian-backed terrorists on other fronts.
IDF soldier Sgt. Koren Bitan, 19, was killed in battle in southern Gaza, as Israel continues to fight Hamas terrorists across Gaza.
The IDF also intercepted a drone approaching Israel from the east, where Iranian proxies in Syria and Iraq have attacked Israel from over the past year.
And Hezbollah rockets continued to force millions of Israelis to bomb shelters across northern and central Israel this morning and last night.
The IDF released a new

announced that the initial equipment and personnel had arrived in Israel to begin setting up the THAAD missile defense system.
Ryder said that additional shipments are expected to arrive "over the coming days" and that the system would be fully operational "in the near future."
"The deployment of the THAAD battery to Israel underscores the United States' commitment to the defense of Israel and to defend Americans in Israel from any ballistic missile attacks by Iran," Ryder added.
Inside the underground command center where Hezbollah planned to take over northern Israel
Veteran Israeli defense analyst Amos Harel

reports from southern Lebanon, where he toured one of the largest Hezbollah tunnels uncovered by the IDF.
The underground complex — an 800-meter-long fortress built under a private home in a Shiite village roughly 3 kilometers from Israel — was designed as a headquarters for the elite Radwan commandos to invade Israel.
"The tunnels were meant to allow large numbers of Hezbollah fighters to move underground until they were close to the border, so they could then emerge and storm the border fence from up close without the IDF having detected their presence," Harel writes.
