Israel’s National Security Council (NSC) has increased its travel warnings for Israeli visitors and residents of the United Arab Emirates, citing the increased risk of “terrorist organizations” carrying out attacks in the Gulf State.
The Iranians, Hamas, Hezbollah, and “global jihad” are increasingly threatening Israeli targets, according to the NSC in a statement released on Thursday, driven by Israel’s military operations in the Middle East.
According to the statement, “They are motivated by heightened motivation to exact revenge following Operation Rising Lion, in addition to the growing pro-Israel and pro-Palestinian incitement since the start of Operation Iron Swords, and even more so in response to Hamas’ starvation campaign,” it said, referring to its military assaults on Iran and Gaza.
Israel is increasingly under international pressure as a result of the Israeli military’s months-long blockade of aid to the Palestinian enclave.
Under a United States-brokered deal known as the Abraham Accords, the UAE became the most well-known Arab state in 30 years to form official ties with Israel. Since the signing of the agreements, Israel and the Jewish community in the nation has grown bigger and more visible.
However, the NSC statement claimed that “terrorist organizations frequently concentrate their efforts in neighboring countries” as a result of “past experience.”
The NSC reiterated that it is possible that they will attempt to attack Israeli and Jewish targets in the UAE, particularly during Shabbat and on Jewish holidays, in light of this.
The NSC’s travel advisory for the UAE, which is still at level 3, strongly advises against non-essential travel and urges Israeli citizens to “seriously reconsider” visiting the Gulf state.
Three people were given the death penalty in the UAE for the murder of an Israeli-Moldovan rabbi in March despite the reputation of the Middle East as one of the safest places there.

One star sign gives their inner monologue more thought while another feels compelled to assist others.
There are 12 zodiac signs – Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, and Pisces – and the horoscopes for each can give you the lowdown on what your future holds, be it in work, your love life, your friends and family or more.
These daily forecasts have been compiled by astrologer Russell Grant, who has been reading star signs for over 50 years. From Aries through to Pisces, here’s what today could bring for your horoscope – and what you can do to be prepared.
Aries (Mar 21 – Apr 20)
You’ll have a lot to think about once some exciting news arrives. You or someone close to you will be informed of a gift, small win, or bonus. There are a few outstanding debts to take into account, so the excitement of learning about an unexpected gain will be brief.
Taurus (Apr 21 – May 21)
No matter where you are, prioritize caution and safety. Any bold actions that fail to take them could lead to disappointment, so this warning persists until nightfall. With care, problems that appear challenging can be resolved.
Gemini (May 22 – June 21)
You’ll be happy to make a stranger laugh. It will be enjoyable to give a partner or distant relative a pricey gift. That’s all well and good, but first, give your finances a shot before putting your money in the bin.
Cancer (June 22 – July 23)
You might find yourself lamenting your finances, realizing you’ve overspent far beyond your means once more. Take comfort in knowing that your financial issues are about to be resolved thanks to the generosity of a supportive relative. When they need answers, be open with them.
Leo (July 24 – Aug 23)
Take a break from your daily routine to ensure your happiness and success in the future. Give yourself permission to have a dream and to envision who you want to be. Even if your imagination takes you to unanticipated places, use it. You might want to act right away on a thought.
Virgo (Aug 24 – Sept 23)
Do your best to promote harmony and peace. Take a break from your regular routine and head to a place that feels more calming and welcoming if the atmosphere is getting tense. Finding a place to unwind from the stresses of daily life is possible. You can take a break from the problems, but they will continue to exist.
Libra (Sept 24 – Oct 23)
In online and in-person conversations, some bizarre ideas are being exchanged. You can picture where these might lead, and almost certainly you think each one will succeed. Avoid making quick decisions, even so. Not today for careless deeds or risks. Make crucial decisions later.
Scorpio (Oct 24 – Nov 22)
You’re starting to feel down as a result of extracurricular obligations. Too many people place an unreasonable expectation on you. A loved one who truly comprehends what you are going through will help as the work pressures mount. Give them a meal at a restaurant this evening to show your appreciation.
Sagittarius (Nov 23 – Dec 21)
You may not be able to solve a problem right now. The intensity of a group’s contingency will increase. You have your own opinions on this, but you’re not sure what to actually say. Listening to the quiet voice inside can help you avoid making mistakes.
Capricorn (Dec 22 – Jan 20)
You can pay off loans and debts that have been burdened for far too long when you have the money you need. You ought to be proud of this accomplishment. You must make it a priority to live within your means in order to advance. If you do this, you will prevent paying off more money.
Aquarius (Jan 21 – Feb 19)
You will be given opportunities to advance professionally. You have the opportunity to look at some promising possibilities for the future. The first one that comes your way is not to be in a hurry. Stay vigilant and steer clear of deceptive and untrustworthy individuals.

Pisces (Feb 20 – Mar 20)
When you’re feeling stressed out, neglecting your health and putting yourself in charge of responsibilities can cause chronic exhaustion and stress. Take a break and reduce your work enthusiasm to restore your energy and strength.

In his executive order, titled “Further Modifying the Reciprocal Tariff Rates,” US President Donald Trump on Thursday, he established the following rates by region:
As Israel is under increasing pressure to control its starvation policy in the war-torn Palestinian territory, Steve Witkoff, the special envoy of US President Donald Trump, will visit Gaza to inspect aid distribution.
As Israel’s condemnation of famine in Gaza grows and more than 1, 000 desperately hungry Palestinians have been killed since May at food distribution centers run by the infamous US- and Israeli-backed GHF, Witkoff and US Ambassador to Israel, Mike Huckabee, will travel to Gaza on Friday to inspect aid distribution.
On Thursday, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt announced that Witkoff would visit “distribution sites and secure a plan to deliver more food and meet with local Gazans to hear firsthand about this dire situation on the ground.”
According to Leavitt, the special envoy and the ambassador will immediately communicate with the president in order to approve a final plan for the distribution of food and aid throughout the region.
The top US envoy’s visit comes a day after more than 50 Palestinians were killed in Israeli-led attacks in the area. Health officials also confirmed that 89 children had died in recent weeks, adding to the confirmed death toll of 154 people from “famine and malnutrition” in Gaza.
According to the Israeli leader’s office, Witkoff and Netanyahu met shortly after his arrival in Israel on Thursday.
President Trump earlier this week refuted Netanyahu’s claim that Gaza’s reports of hunger were false, with the US leader claiming that the region was “real starvation”.
The Israeli military’s blockade of humanitarian aid was cited by the UN and independent experts, who had been warning about starvation in Gaza for months. This week, they announced that “famine is now unfolding.
The United Kingdom, Canada, and Portugal became the latest Western governments to announce plans to recognize a Palestinian state this week after Israel denied providing aid and continued attacks on Gaza’s population.
Following Spain, Norway, and Ireland’s lead, French President Emmanuel Macron announced last week that France would support the recognition of Palestine at the September UN General Assembly.
Out of the 193 UN members, 142 nations currently or intend to recognize a Palestinian state.
German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul said, “the humanitarian disaster in Gaza is beyond imagination,” after meeting with Netanyahu on Thursday in Jerusalem.
He urged the Israeli government to act quickly, safely, and effectively to provide humanitarian and medical aid to stop widespread starvation.
“It seems to have been understood today,” I believe.
On Friday, August 1, 2018, the situation is as follows:
Fighting
More than 100 people were hurt and killed when Russia launched missiles and drones at Kyiv on Thursday morning, according to Ukrainian authorities, who were in charge of the city. According to the Russian Ministry of Defense, it attacked and targeted Ukrainian military installations, ammunition depots, and businesses connected to Kyiv’s military-industrial complex.
After nearly 16 months of fighting, Russia asserted that it had taken control of Chasiv Yar, a destroyed town in eastern Ukraine, calling the claim “propaganda” by Kyiv.
In Penza, in western Russia, Ukrainian drones were flown in by the state security agency SBU, which makes combat control systems for the Russian military.
military assistance
Despite US President Donald Trump’s administration’s request in its budget request, a powerful US Senate committee has approved a military spending bill that includes about $1 billion for Ukraine.
Ceasefire
According to President Trump, Steve Witkoff, the US special envoy, will travel to Russia after his most recent trip to Israel. Witkoff, who has previously had long-running ceasefire discussions with Russian President Vladimir Putin, was not given an itinerary by Trump.
Trump has harshly criticized Russia’s “disgusting” attitude toward Ukraine and declared he will impose sanctions on Moscow if no ceasefire agreement is reached. Putin has until August 8 to reach a resolution to put an end to the fighting, according to the US president.
Senior US diplomat John Kelley told the 15-member council that “both Russia and Ukraine must negotiate a ceasefire and durable peace,” as the US once again reaffirmed its commitment to the UN Security Council. “It’s time to make a deal,” Kelly said. This must be accomplished by August 8 as President Trump has stated. The United States is prepared to take additional steps to bring about peace.
After the deputy chairman of Russia’s Security Council declared that Washington’s threats to impose sanctions on Moscow and oil producers were “a game of ultimatums” and “a step closer to a war between Russia and the US,” Trump also told Dmitry Medvedev to “watch his words.”
The former Russian president responded by reminding Trump to keep in mind that Moscow had the last resort of Soviet-era nuclear strike capabilities.
Ukrainian affairs
The parliament of Ukraine resolved to end Russia’s biggest political crisis since Russia’s invasion by restoring the independence of two significant anticorruption organizations.
The bill was approved by the legislature last week after President Volodymyr Zelenskyy was under pressure from thousands of protesters and senior European officials. It was defeated by a vote of 331 to 0 in favor.
regional changes
In advance of joint drills scheduled for August 1 through August 5, Chinese naval vessels have steamed into Vladivostok, Russia’s far eastern port.
