Welcome to The Times of Israel’s Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what’s happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world.
Today is day 82 of the war. Political correspondent Tal Schneider and health editor Renee Ghert-Zand join host Jessica Steinberg for today’s podcast.
Schneider discusses a Hezbollah missile that hit an ancient church in the Galilee, near the evacuation zone up north, while a rocket fired from Gaza scored a direct hit on the roof of a synagogue in one of the Negev border communities.
Ghert-Zand looks at the Israeli health community’s concern over diseases spreading from Gaza via soldiers and hostages, as Gazans deal with crowding and disease amid mass evacuations and refugee tent camps.
She also speaks about new Health Ministry protocols on the where and how of medical treatment for terrorists detained in Israel.
