Israel launches a new military operation in Gaza

Israel says it has launched a major operation in the Gaza Strip to pressure Hamas to release remaining hostages. Israel’s defense minister said Saturday that Operation Gideon Chariots began and is being led with “great force” by Israel’s army. The announcement comes after days of intensive strikes across Gaza that killed hundreds of people. Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowed earlier in the week to escalate pressure on Hamas with the aim of destroying the militant group that has ruled Gaza for nearly two decades. Russian drone strike kills 9 people A Russian drone has struck a passenger bus in Ukraine’s northeastern Sumy region, killing nine people and injuring seven others. Ukrainian officials said the attack happened on Saturday, just hours after Moscow and Kyiv held their first direct peace talks in years. The talks failed to yield a ceasefire. The Sumy regional administration said in a post on the Telegram messaging app that “this is another war crime by Russia — a deliberate strike on civilian transport that posed no threat.” The peace talks ended after less than two hours on Friday, with both sides agreeing on a large prisoner swap while a ceasefire remained elusive.

Oklahoma adds 2020 Election to Curriculum The State of Oklahoma is adding information about the 2020 election to its K-12 School curriculum. The previous standard for studying the 2020 election merely said, “Examine issues related to the election of 2020 and its outcome." The new version is more expansive: “Identify discrepancies in 2020 elections results by looking at graphs and other information, including the sudden halting of ballot-counting in select cities in key battleground states, the security risks of mail-in balloting, sudden batch dumps, an unforeseen record number of voters, and the unprecedented contradiction of ‘bellwether county’ trends.” The new standards also point out to students that the source of the Covid 19 virus was a lab in Wuhan, China. Superintendent Ryan Walters said, ““The left has been pushing left-wing indoctrination in the classroom … We’re moving it back to actually understanding history ... and I’m unapologetic about that.”
