Turkey vows to ‘liberate Al-Aqsa’ after turning Hagia Sophia to mosque
Turkey’s President Recep Tayyip Erdogan vowed to “liberate al-Aqsa mosque” from Israel after “resurrecting Hagia Sophia” as a mosque on Friday. The decision to change the status of the ancient Hagia Sophia church, which had been transformed into a mosque in 1453 and then into a museum in 1934, was made controversially last week. The resurrection of Hagia Sophia heralds the liberation of the al-Aqsa mosque, the Turkish Presidency website says. “The resurrection of Hagia Sophia is the footsteps of the will of Muslims across the world to come… the resurrection of Hagia Sophia is the reignition of the fire of hope of Muslims and all oppressed, wrong, downtrodden and exploited.”

Tel Aviv protests turn violent amid clashes with police
Some 80,000 protesters gathered in Tel Aviv’s Rabin Square on Saturday to voice their anger at the failed policies of Netanyahu and Finance Minister Israel Katz, who promised to help the nation’s economy during the COVID-19 crisis. Dozens of protesters blocked HaHasmonaim and Hamisgar-Yitzhak Sadeh roads and the exit to the Ayalon Highway. The intersection in front of the Azrieli towers was blocked by protesters leaving the protest in Rabin Square. The police stressed that while they “allow the freedom to protest, there is a difference between a legitimate protest with defined boundaries and a riot that throws off every rein and violates the public order while harming police officers, damaging property and harming the general public.” Videos circulated on Saturday night showed protesters throwing stones through the glass door of a Discount Bank branch on Ibn Gabirol Street. As economic protests in Tel Aviv came to an end on Saturday night, protesters began to block roads and clash with police throughout the city.

PA Arrests Palestinians for Endorsing Israel’s Annexation
The Palestinian Authority has arrested several Palestinians who said they were in favor of Israel’s plan to apply its laws to parts of the West Bank, the AFP news wire reported Tuesday. The Breitbart report originally contained identifying details including names and locations at the express permission of those interviewed who declared that they were not afraid to speak their mind. However, after Breitbart News learned that some of those interviewed by Yechezkeli had been arrested by the Palestinian police, it chose to redact identifying details. Ramallah denied arresting anyone, the report said, but added corroborations from Palestinian sources, including one who said his relative had been held for several weeks by Palestinian police and was due to face a court soon after telling Yechezkeli that despite “fear” of being arrested, he was hopeful “that Israel will give us citizenship.”

Israeli watchdog reveals 28 Hezbollah missile sites in Beirut civil centers
Lebanese hold raucous rally outside US Embassy in Beirut
At least 28 missile sites connected to Lebanon’s Hezbollah terrorist organization have been located in civilian areas across Beirut, The Jerusalem Post reported on Monday, citing a report from the Alma Research and Education Center. The report reveals that the sites are used for the production, storage, and launches of medium-range surface-to-surface ballistic missiles, such as the Iranian Fateh-110 and its Syrian equivalent, the M600. “The world must understand and know that these launch sites are located in the very heart of residential and urban areas,” the head of the research department at the Alma Center, Tal Beeri, told JPost. “Hezbollah uses the population of Beirut as human shields, and does not hesitate to place its launch sites near public buildings, educational establishments, factories, and more.” Hezbollah is said to have around 600 Fateh-110 and M600 missiles with a range of up to 300 km (185 miles), the report said, adding that, “the sites in question are already available and operational.”

Eastern Libyan parliament calls for Egypt ‘to directly intervene’ in conflict
Assad Sends Pantsir Air Defense Systems To Counter Turkey In Libya
Libya’s eastern-based parliament has asked Egypt to directly intervene in the country’s civil war to counter Turkish support for the internationally recognized Government of National Accord (GNA). In a statement issued late on Monday, the House of Representatives based in the eastern port of Tobruk said Egyptian backing was needed to stave off “a Turkish invasion and occupation,” Reuters reports. The country’s battle lines solidified earlier this month near the city of Sirte, after the GNA, based in the capital Tripoli, and Turkey drove the eastern-based Libyan National Army (LNA) back from a yearlong assault on Tripoli. Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi has already warned the army might enter Libya if the GNA and its Turkish allies renew an assault on Sirte. The central coastal city is seen as the gateway to Libya’s main oil export terminals.

Natanz retaliation test run: Iran practices with missiles, drones in Yemen
Recent weeks have seen them use missiles and drones in combination. This should be of concern to the region. Even though Iranian shipments to Yemen have been intercepted three times by the US Navy, the Houthis have already showcased impressive missiles and drones. The wider concern is that if Iran seeks to strike at the US, Saudi Arabia, Israel or others, it may use the experience of the Houthis to inform its allies in Iraq, Syria and Lebanon. Recent research by the ALMA Research and Education Center revealed 28 missile sites in Lebanon. Iran has said it will retaliate if it concludes that a recent incident at its Natanz facility was done by a foreign country. The Houthi use of new missile and drone combinations may be what Iran is analyzing for retaliation. In the last two years, Iran has reportedly transferred precision guided munitions to Hezbollah and has sought to move ballistic missiles to Shi’ite militia allies in Iraq.

Taliban Stage a Major Attack, as Violence Intensifies in Northern Afghanistan
The Taliban waged a sustained assault against an Afghan intelligence complex in the city of Aybak on Monday, killing at least 11 people and wounding more than 60 others, part of a bloody wave of violence across the country’s north. With the opening of peace talks between the insurgency and the Afghan government stalled for months, the Taliban have intensified their offensives, creating one of the deadliest years of the long war. On Monday, insurgents detonated a car bomb at the entrance of the provincial headquarters of Afghanistan’s National Directorate of Security in Aybak, the capital of Samangan Province, about 150 miles northwest of Kabul. The blast, which also struck a nearby municipal compound, opened the way for fighters to enter the intelligence agency complex, where they battled the Afghan forces for hours, said Sefatullah Samangani, the deputy governor of the province.

Azerbaijan general among troops killed in Armenia border clash
Azerbaijan says one of its generals and five other officers have been killed in a third day of fighting with Armenian forces on the countries’ border. An Azeri private also died, bringing the Azeri death toll so far to 11. Armenia says two Armenian officers were killed. Both countries were part of the Soviet Union until its collapse in the 1990s. Both sides accuse each other of shelling civilian areas on the border. Azerbaijan’s defence ministry said a 76-year-old man was killed in the village of Agdam, by Armenian shelling. Earlier the ministry said four Azeri troops had been killed in clashes on Sunday and Monday, involving tanks and artillery. Meanwhile, Armenia accused Azerbaijan of shelling the town of Berd. Azerbaijan’s military said it had destroyed an Armenian fortification and artillery and had inflicted casualties on “hundreds” of Armenian troops. Armenia denied suffering any casualties on that scale, but reported several wounded besides the two officers killed.

George Soros’s Foundation Pours $220 Million Into Racial Equality Push
Open Society Foundations Announce $220 Million for Building Power in Black Communities
The Open Society Foundations, the philanthropic group founded by the business magnate George Soros, announced on Monday that it was investing $220 million in efforts to achieve racial equality in America, a huge financial undertaking that will support several Black-led racial justice groups for years to come. Of the $220 million, the foundation will invest $150 million in five-year grants for selected groups, including progressive and emerging organizations like the Black Voters Matter Fund and Repairers of the Breach, a group founded by the Rev. Dr. William J. Barber II of the Poor People’s Campaign. The money will also support more established Black civil rights organizations like the Equal Justice Initiative, which was founded by the civil rights lawyer Bryan Stevenson and depicted in the 2019 movie “Just Mercy.” The Open Society Foundations will invest an additional $70 million in local grants supporting changes to policing and criminal justice. This money will also be used to pay for opportunities for civic engagement and to organize internships and political training for young people.

Kroger to no longer return coin change to customers
Due to a coin shortage at the Federal Reserve, Kroger will no longer return coin change to customers. Instead, the remainders from cash transactions can either be donated to charity or applied to the customers’ loyalty cards to be used on the next purchase. Kroger officials said, “at Kroger, we are implementing several creative solutions to minimize the impact to our customers…We know this is an inconvenience for our customers and we appreciate their patience. The Treasury Department expects the shortage to diminish as more regions of the country reopen.”

Bank of England Debating Digital Currency Creation
The Bank of England is reviewing whether it should create a central bank-backed digital currency, according to governor Andrew Bailey. “We are looking at the question of, should we create a Bank of England digital currency,” Bailey said Monday in a webinar event with students. “We’ll go on looking at it, as it does have huge implications on the nature of payments and society.” The BOE is part of a group of major central banks teaming up to assess potentially developing their own digital currencies, acknowledging their role is being challenged by new technologies and private sector initiatives such as Facebook Inc.’s Libra. It could be some time before the U.K. central bank is able to fully devote its attention to such a development, however. “The digital currency issue will be a very big issue,” Bailey said. “I hope it is, because that means Covid will be behind us.”

Attack at church in South Africa leaves 5 dead
At least five people are dead and more than 40 people arrested in South Africa Saturday following an attack at a church in Zuurbekom, a town in the Gauteng Province of South Africa. The South African Police Service and National Defense Force responded Saturday to reports of a shooting and an alleged hostage situation at the International Pentecostal Holiness Church at 3 a.m. local time. Authorities do not believe a terrorist group is responsible for the attack, but “may have been motivated by a feud between conflicted parties of the church.” A group of armed people, police said, came to the church and allegedly attacked people who were inside, indicating that they were coming to take over the premises. Responding authorities said they also rescued multiple men, women and children, who were said to be living in the compound and being allegedly held hostage. Police said they have arrested over 40 suspects, including six people who have been taken to hospital.

Florida Labs Acknowledge “Major Errors” After Reporting Positivity Rates Of 100%
Florida health officials left COVID-19 trackers slackjawed on Sunday when it reported more than 15k new infections in just 24 hours on Sunday (the data were gleaned from the prior day). But as hospitalizations surge, questions have grown about whether the state is still trying to ‘juke’ its data, something that a now infamous whistleblower alleged before she was fired (she has since started her own COVID-19 data portal relying on public info). Journalists scouring the reams of daily data for discrepancies have apparently happened upon bombshell they had been hoping for: Orlando Health has just confirmed that some of the data it shared over the weekend were wrong, after journalists reported more than 50 labs showing 100% positivity rate, or roughly around there. One local Fox affiliate looked into the numbers and contacted a few of the labs to confirm that their internal data matched the public data released by the state. As it turned out, some of these discrepancies were pretty extreme: Orlando Health, one of the organizations contacted by Fox, confirmed that it’s positivity rate was actually 9.8%, not the 98% that had been reported to the state.

A Never-Before-Seen Bacteria Is Killing Tens of Thousands of Fish in Victorville, California
Bulging eyes, erratic swimming, darkened skin and a swollen abdomen. These are the symptoms of a mysterious new bacterial infection killing tens of thousands of fish in California right now. A bacteria identified as Lactococcus garvieae, which had never been found in the state until April, has caused a mass outbreak of disease killing up to 60,000 fish at the Mojave River Hatchery in San Bernardino County. 3 million rainbow trout and other species have been quarantined as scientists try to understand the novel pathogen that has resisted treatments to cure it. Fish pathologists do not know where the bacteria came from in the first place.
