US Special Operations Forces are in Israel Helping Locate Hostages
NYT reports the US commandos are not assigned combat roles
American special operations forces are on the ground in Israel helping locate the hostages Hamas brought into Gaza after the October 7 attack on southern Israel, a Pentagon official said on Tuesday.
“We’re actively helping the Israelis to do a number of things,” said Christopher P. Maier, the assistant secretary of defense for special operations, according to The New York Times. He said the main task is to “identify hostages, including American hostages.”
Maeir did not say how many US commandos were in Israel, but US officials told the Times that several dozen had been deployed in addition to a small team that was already in Israel on October 7. Shortly after the Hamas attack, the Pentagon offered Israel special operations support.
The Times report said that the US commandos were not assigned to combat roles, and so far, there’s no indication that US troops are on the ground in Gaza as Israeli forces are pushing further into the enclave. Maier said the special operators were talking through with their Israeli counterparts “what is going to be a very complex fight going forward.”

Most people check the ingredients in their food. But what about the light bulbs in their homes?
As the days shorten, we spend more time under artificial light. Yet most people choose their lighting without considering what it means for their health.
Here I explore the forgotten research on natural and artificial light, why the differences extend far beyond vitamin D, and what deserves a closer look in your own home:

🇺🇸🇳🇱🇦🇿🇦🇪 — A new book alleges that Dutch intelligence hacked the phone of Jared Kushner, U.S. President Trump's son-in-law, and monitored him accessing a Dubai bank account holding hundreds of millions of dollars transferred from a bank in Azerbaijan.
The claim comes from an excerpt of 'Princes and Thieves', a book by investigative journalist Matthew Cole about Kushner and Emirati President Mohamed bin Zayed.
Cole says a source he considered reliable told him in spring 2020 that Kushner appeared to transfer large sums from the account to other individuals, including a warlord, a mercenary, and a former hitman.
The excerpt's headline says the transfers totaled more than $700 million and that the bank accounts linked Kushner and former senior adviser to Israel, the UAE, and Saudi Arabia.
