Reports: IDF Raids West Bank Mosque After Israeli Settlers Attack Palestinians

Here are Friday’s key updates from Israel, the West Bank, Gaza and the Middle East:

■ IDF troops struck two militants on Thursday in the northern Gaza Strip who entered a structure east of the Israeli-controlled Yellow Line.

■ The world’s largest aircraft carrier has been ordered to sail from the Caribbean Sea to the Middle East, a person familiar with the plans said Thursday, as U.S. President Donald Trump considers whether to take possible military action against Iran.

■ The London High Court ruled that the U.K. government’s decision to ban Palestine Action as a terror group is “unlawful.”

■ Settlers beat Palestinian residents in the northern West Bank, opened fire and shattered car windows, the Palestinian News Agency reported.

■ Members of the “October Council,” which represents families of victims of the Hamas-led attacks, protested outside the residence of Culture Minister Miki Zohar after he endorsed on Thursday the Prime Minister’s Office’s initiative to remove the word “massacre” from the title of the bill to commemorate the events of October 7.
