Prime Minister Netanyahu at Sunday morning's cabinet meeting addressed Iran's declared plans to enrich Uranium beyond limits set in the 2015 deal.

"Iran violated its solemn promise under the UN Security Council not to enrich uranium not to enrich uranium beyond a certain level. The enrichment of uranium is for one reason, and one reason only: the creation of atomic bombs."

"The leaders of the P5+1 promised and committed themselves to snap back sanction the minute Iran did that. It just did. Where are you?"

Iranian chief nuclear negotiator Abbas Araghchi announced on Sunday that Iran will produce uranium at 5% enrichment, above the cap of 3.67%, according to The Guardian.

Araghchi added that Iran's reduction in its commitment to the 2015 deal would continue every 60 days.

Iran had given enough time to diplomacy and its actions were not a violation of the deal, he asserted, adding that European governments had failed to fulfill their obligations under the deal.


2. OVER 500 CIVILIANS KILLED IN RUSSIAN OFFENSIVE IN SYRIA
by Gary Willig

At least 544 civilians were killed and over 2,000 wounded in Russian airstrikes on the last revel stronghold in northwestern Syria over the last two months, human rights organizations reported.

Russia and Syrian President Bashar al-Assad's military have bombarded the rebel-held Idlib province since late April in the largest offensive in the Syrian civil war since summer 2018.

According to the Syrian Network for Human Rights (SNHR), the dead include 130 children.

SNHR chairman Fadel Abdul Ghany told Reuters that the Russian and Syrian militaries were "deliberately targeting civilians with a record number of medical facilities bombed."

Russia and the Assad regime have denied that they have deliberately targeted civilians or indiscriminately attacked civilian areas with cluster bombs and incendiary weapons.

Over 560,000 people have been killed in the civil war since March 2011, according to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights. 5.7 million Syrians have fled the country as refugees, according to UN figures, and an additional 6.1 million Syrians have been internally displaced.

Energy Minister Yuval Steinitz accused the Iranian regime attempting to blackmail world leaders through its nuclear program after Iran said it would enrich uranium beyond the levels permitted under the 2015 nuclear deal.

"Iran is performing nuclear blackmail against the entire world," Steinitz told Arutz Sheva. "The Iranian announcement that they will enrich uranium beyond the limitations prove what we have said this whole time: that the nuclear agreement is bad and insufficient."

"If it allows Iran to perform nuclear blackmail against the world and to threaten the world that it can very easily march towards fissile material and nuclear weapons, there is only one meaning, that Iran remains too close to [getting] nuclear weapons. Therefore, the world must insist that [Iran] dismantle entirely its nuclear facilities."

The Central District Attorney's Office filed an indictment with the Lod District Court on Sunday against Carmel Mauda, the 25-year-old daycare worker who was arrested on suspicion of abusing toddlers in her home.

The indictment includes 18 charges for offenses of abuse of a minor or helpless person and assaulting a minor or helpless person.

According to the indictment, Mauda was the owner and manager of the "Baby Leo" daycare in Rosh Ha'ayin, for infants and toddlers between the ages of 3 months and 3 years.

During this period, on numerous occasions during her work in the daycare, she attacked 11 infants and toddlers in the daycare by covering the children's heads with a blanket and sitting on them to prevent movement; tying a minor's hands using string for minutes to hours; picking up minors by forcefully grasping the arm; swinging them in the air and throwing them onto the floor; shaking babies; placing toddlers facing the wall, sometimes for several hours; whipping the minors with a diaper, slapping them, pinching and pulling toddlers' heads back, blocking their noses and mouths until breathing difficulties arose. In one case she forced a minor to eat the contents of a plate into which he vomited.

In the request to detain Mauda until the end of proceedings it was written, "The Respondent's actions establish grounds for detention ... since there is reasonable grounds to fear that the respondent will endanger the public's security, in view of the large number of minors injured, the multiplicity of incidents, and the systematic abuse exposed in four cameras almost daily for a considerable period of about three weeks."

"The respondent's dangerousness is reinforced by the fact that the respondent harmed infants and toddlers, some of whom had no linguistic ability at all, and some of them in the initial stages of linguistic development, who are unable to tell and seek help from their parents while those who maintain their physical and mental well-being repeatedly harm them. In addition, it is not possible to give the respondent trust, since she exploited the trust of the parents who deposited in her hands, so to speak, that which is most precious to them."

Five IDF soldiers were injured when a car rammed into them near Hizma, in northern Jerusalem.

Two of the soldiers were moderately injured, while the other three suffered light injuries. The victims were treated by Magen David Adom (MDA) and United Hatzalah paramedics, who transferred them to Jerusalem hospitals.

United Hatzalah volunteer EMT Ariel Ben David, who was one of the first responders at the scene, said: "I together with other first responders treated four young people, one woman and three men, who were injured in the incident. Following their initial treatment at the scene they were transported to Jerusalem hospitals for further treatment."

MDA spokesman Zaki Heller said: "Magen David Adom paramedics are administering medical treatment and transferring four injured people to hospitals. The injured include a man in his thirties who is moderately injured and suffered injuries to his face and limbs, as well as a young woman of about 20 who suffered moderate injuries to her head and limbs." Both are being transferred to Shaare Zedek Medical Center, he added, noting that "two additional people of about 20 who were lightly injured are being brought to Shaare Zedek and Hadassah's Mount Scopus Hospital."

Police and the IDF are searching for the terrorist, who escaped the scene, and the IDF is investigating whether the ramming was nationalistically motivated.

Earlier Saturday evening, an Arab terrorist attempted to run over a police officer in Samaria.

In that instance, as well, the suspect escaped the scene, leading Israel Police and IDF forces to begin searching for the vehicle. However, no one was injured.

Overnight Saturday, following joint intelligence and operational activity of the IDF and the Israel Security Agency (Shin Bet), the terrorist suspected of running over five soldiers on Saturday night near the village of Hizma was arrested, the IDF Spokesperson's Unit said.

An initial investigation into the incident revealed that it was a terrorist attack, during which the terrorist identified the soldiers who were standing on the roadside during an operational mission and ran them over.

As a result of the ramming attack, three fighters suffered moderate injuries, and two others were lightly injured. The soldiers were evacuated to hospital for medical treatment.

The terrorist and his father were captured at a checkpoint by IDF forces who were operating in the area following Shin Bet intelligence activity. The two were taken for questioning by security forces.

The IDF Spokesperson's Unit stated that "the IDF will continue to act to maintain security in the area and will act to thwart terrorist attacks and capture terrorists."

Earlier Saturday evening, an Arab terrorist attempted to run over a police officer in Samaria. No one was injured.

In that instance, as well, the suspect escaped the scene, leading Israel Police and IDF forces to begin searching for the vehicle.

An Arab terrorist attempted Saturday night to run over a police officer in Samaria.

The attempted terror attack occurred at Hatzofim Square, when a Palestinian Authority Arab driving towards the police checkpoint refused to obey police orders, instead continue to drive towards one of the officers in an attempt to ram him.

Attempting to end the attack, the officer fired his weapon, but the terrorist continued driving wildly and escaped the scene.

Israel Police and IDF forces are searching for the vehicle.

No one was injured.



8. IRANIAN CLERIC: BRITAIN SHOULD BE 'SCARED'
by Elad Benari

Britain should be "scared" about Iran's possible retaliation for the capture of an Iranian supertanker by Royal Marines in Gibraltar, an Iranian cleric said Saturday, according to Reuters.

"I am openly saying that Britain should be scared of Iran's retaliatory measures over the illegal seizure of the Iranian oil tanker," said Mohammad Ali Mousavi Jazayeri, a member of the powerful clerical body the Assembly of Experts.

"We have shown that we will never remain silent against bullying ...As we gave a staunch response to the American drone, the appropriate response to this illegal capture (of the tanker) will be given by Iran as well," he added, according to Reuters.

The British naval force on Thursday seized an Iranian oil tanker in Gibraltar on suspicion that it was carrying crude oil to Syria in what may be the first such interception under EU sanctions.

The detention of the tanker angered Iran, which condemned the move as an "illegal interception" and summoned the British ambassador in protest.

Jazayeri's comment came a day after an Iranian Revolutionary Guards commander threatened to seize a British ship in retaliation for the capture of the Iranian supertanker.

The incident comes at a sensitive time in Iran-EU ties as the bloc mulls how to respond to Tehran announcing it will breach the maximum uranium enrichment level it agreed to in a 2015 nuclear deal.
