New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani is threatening to sue the Trump administration over reports that immigration agents have been using city-owned parking lots as staging areas for enforcement operations. In a letter, he wrote that the practice "is unauthorized and is therefore illegal." According to the letter, agents have used unstaffed city lots at Van Cortlandt Park in the Bronx and beside Flushing Meadows Corona Park in Queens. Mamdani demanded that ICE bar its agents from using city lots, warning that the city will take legal action if the unauthorized use of the lots continues.

Israel's health system went on alert Tuesday after two people who recently returned from the Democratic Republic of Congo developed fever and were isolated on suspicion of Ebola. The Health Ministry stressed that the cases are only suspected and that no confirmed case has been diagnosed in Israel. The two were taken to Sheba and Ichilov medical centers as officials opened an epidemiological investigation to trace their contacts. The ministry urged travelers back from Congo within 21 days who develop a fever to stay home and contact it right away rather than going to a clinic.

A Chareidi protester arrested in Yerushalayim's Meah Shearim neighborhood on suspicion of throwing a stone at police was freed after his lawyer showed the court video proving he was not the one who threw it. He had been held overnight based on the identification of an officer who said he never lost sight of him. Police had asked the court to extend his detention by five more days, but the footage showed a different person throwing the stone. After watching the video, the police representative withdrew the request and asked for the suspect to be released immediately and without conditions.

A LOT Polish Airlines flight from London to Warsaw carrying a group of Jewish and Israeli students made an emergency landing Tuesday morning after a report of a bomb on board. The plane touched down at Modlin Airport outside Warsaw, where security forces carried out a thorough search of the aircraft. The 181 passengers, including Jewish and Israeli students aged 16 to 17 from Britain, were taken off without their belongings for security checks. The incident is the latest in a series of threats against flights across Europe, following similar threats last month against flights to and from Israel.

Senior police commanders issued a rare letter backing Commissioner Danny Levi and rejecting Minister Itamar Ben Gvir's charge that Levi ordered harsh violence against Chareidi protesters. "We have never heard from the Commissioner an instruction or statement calling for the use of unlawful violence," they wrote. The letter came a day after Ben Gvir made the claim in a High Court filing seeking to cancel an order barring him from intervening in police handling of protests. Levi's office hit back, calling the claims "serious, delusional and shameful allegations that cross every line."

Moshe Bar Siman-Tov, the director-general of Israel's Health Ministry, told Health Minister Haim Katz on Tuesday that he will step down in the coming weeks, ending roughly nine years at the helm over two terms. He led the health system through the coronavirus pandemic and the war that followed October 7. Katz praised his "significant contribution to Israel's health system," while Bar Siman-Tov said he is leaving the system "stable, professional and prepared for any challenge." He is expected to join Columbia University as a research fellow studying how health systems cope with national trauma.

Political correspondent Michael Shemesh launched a sharp on-air attack on what he called the hypocrisy of the left over the Arab parties' role in the next government. He said anyone opposing such a partnership is suddenly branded a racist, though the bloc's leaders pledged before the vote not to sit with them. Shemesh said the self-styled champions of the Arab parties stayed silent while the change bloc boycotted them during the campaign. Making clear he believes there is room in a government for both the Chareidim and the Arab parties, he asked where those lecturing on pluralism were before the election.

Naftali Bennett emerged from Tuesday's meeting of the anti-Netanyahu bloc leaders in Herzliya calling for urgent action to take control of the Knesset and the mandate. "We have no time. We need to act with great urgency," Bennett said, pledging Yachad's full strength to help Gadi Eisenkot form a coalition. According to reports, the leaders agreed to act to remove Knesset Speaker Amir Ohana but could not agree on a replacement, with Yair Lapid's candidacy the main sticking point. Without the Arab parties the bloc holds just 48 seats, while with their 19 MKs it reaches 67.
