Iran's Janfada Campaign Mobilizes Women for Wartime Training
Iran is expanding its "Janfada" campaign, recruiting women for wartime military training in a significant mobilization effort linked to the IRGC. Security concerns are heightened as an Egyptian national apprehended at the Nitzana border crossing claimed his intent was to kill Jews. In US politics, Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed's campaign faces criticism for not condemning an antisemitic advertisement blaming Israel for rising grocery prices. Domestically, Israel is focused on elections, with arrests made over alleged voter bribery, strong IDF voter turnout, and incidents of harassment targeting journalists. A stone-throwing attack also injured a woman in the West Bank.
