Netanyahu Responds to Obama Amidst Election Countdown

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu strongly responded to former US President Barack Obama's criticisms regarding Israeli land and conduct, asserting that "the Jewish people are not foreign occupiers" and calling Israel their homeland. In Gaza, an Israeli drone strike killed one Palestinian and injured dozens. As Israel approaches an election, analyst Garry Kasparov warns of a stark choice between secular democracy and rabbinical theocracy, while political maneuvering intensifies among parties. Reports also detail Iran's continued energy exports despite US sanctions and an incident involving a journalist and settlers in the West Bank.
