— 🇮🇱/🇵🇸/🇱🇧/🇾🇪 13th day of the war, October 19th, status update and major events:
– Airstrikes on Gaza throughout the entire day, still a huge lack of food, water, medicine and electricity.
– An Israeli airstrike nearly entirely destroyed the Orthodox Church of Saint Porphyrius in Gaza, where civilians were taking shelter.
– Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant tells his troops: 'The order will come, you will see Gaza from the inside'.
– United States issued a 'worldwide caution' travel alert, due to possible hostility against Americans around the world in light of recent events.

– Kann announced that Israel will be evacuating its embassies in Bahrain, Jordan, Morocco, Egypt and Turkey.

The world’s fastest drone, the XLR V3, just went from 0 to 124 mph (200 km/h) in 1 second, faster than a Formula 1 car off the line.
Designed by Swiss engineers, the XLR V3 is a high performance FPV (First Person View) racing drone built with ultra light carbon fiber, high torque brushless motors, and cutting edge aerodynamics. It’s not just fast, it’s rewriting what’s possible in drone engineering.
This drone accelerates faster than:
✔️ An F1 car
✔️ A Tesla Plaid
✔️ Even a fighter jet on launch
Imagine what they're not showing us...
⚡️A Russian drone strike hit the car of Chief Rabbi Yosef Yitzchak Wolf in Kherson, head of the United Jewish Community of Ukraine’s local chapter.
Yosef is well known for assisting SBU and Nationalists in tracking down pro Russian Ukrainians who supported Russian forces during the liberation and uses his synagogue, as a shield, to help assemble FPVs for Ukrainian forces.
Stripe, the largest payment processor in the U.S., debanked conservative commentator Michael Knowles, reportedly due to a “legally binding order.”
As the Daily Wire host shared on Monday, his X monetization payments, which are processed through Stripe, “abruptly stopped” six months ago when he received a message that he hadn’t set up his Stripe account.
