Yuval Raphael, who survived the 7 October attack in 2023, has been chosen to represent Israel at this year's Eurovision Song Contest. Raphael, 24, was at the Nova musical festival when Hamas attackers killed 360 young partygoers and took 40 more hostage.

Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi, who has commanded the Israeli military throughout 15 months of war in Gaza, said he was resigning over its failure to protect against the 2023 assault.

Columbia University says it is boosting security after an incident on campus involving protesters. Earlier this week, the university said in a statement a class on "The History of Modern Israel" was disrupted Tuesday by a group of students who handed out fliers showing violent imagery.

These people are openly against not just discussion, they’re openly against anyone in the university learning about the history of Israel,” one student told The Post.
