IDF Admits Firing on Gaza Vehicle Carrying Hind Rajab, Opens Criminal Probe

The Israeli military for the first time acknowledged firing on the vehicle carrying 5-year-old Hind Rajab in northern Gaza and said it has opened a criminal investigation into the death; the IDF had previously denied involvement. Rajab survived the initial fire and pleaded for help by phone as rescuers came under fire, and twelve days later her body was found in a car riddled with bullets. The incident drew international calls for accountability and inspired a documentary that was Oscar-nominated in 2026. This is an ongoing developing story.

Wexner testifies on Epstein ties, says he was duped and cut ties years ago

Former Victoria’s Secret owner Les Wexner testified before the House Oversight Committee about his past ties to Jeffrey Epstein, insisting he did nothing wrong and cut Epstein loose nearly two decades ago after discovering his abuse. Wexner has said Epstein misappropriated about $46 million of his assets, and reports have suggested Epstein earned hundreds of millions from their financial arrangement. The hearing follows subpoenas to other Epstein associates, including Ghislaine Maxwell (who refused to answer questions) and Bill and Hillary Clinton, as part of ongoing scrutiny. The Epstein Files Transparency Act aims to force broader DOJ release of investigative materials, with millions of pages still potentially undisclosed.
