UNITED NATIONS — Three years after the worst massacre in Israel’s history, Eliya Cohen — who survived 505 days in Hamas captivity — took the stage at the United Nations alongside his newlywed wife, Ziv Abud, a survivor of the Nova music festival massacre, and tried to explain to some of the world’s top diplomats what he had endured.”They didn’t let me change clothes or to get a shower, even to eat or to drink,” he said. “They chained me with heavy iron chains by my leg,” Cohen said during an emotional discussion moderated by Dr. Phil McGraw at Israel’s U.N. commemoration Tuesday.He said lights were kept on to prevent the hostages from sleeping and that captors would enter repeatedly during the night screaming in an effort to frighten them. Cohen said they were not permitted to use a restroom and that at times survival felt almost impossible.FREED HOSTAGE ROM BRASLAVSKI DETAILS ABUSE, STARVATION DURING 738 DAYS IN GAZA CAPTIVITY But he described repeatedly forcing his mind away from the violence and toward the possibility of returning home.”Don’t think about the violence. Don’t think about the torture. Don’t think about everything,” Cohen…

An updated report from the Congressional Research Service, or CRS, now lists 81 U.S. military aircraft as lost or damaged since the United States launched Operation Epic Fury against Iran on Feb. 28. That is nearly double the 42 aircraft the research service counted in May, as Defense News reported at the time.The Oct. 5 revision adds jets damaged in a September Iranian strike on a base in Jordan, helicopter losses drawn from a Pentagon inspector general report and a sharply higher count of lost Reaper drones.CRS cautions that the total is not a count of destroyed aircraft, noting, “Some damaged aircraft may have been returned to active service.”The research service works from public information, drawing on news reports and statements from the Defense Department and U.S. Central Command. This version also draws on the inspector general report published Sept. 14. CRS said its count “may remain subject to revision due to multiple factors, which may include classification, ongoing combat activity, and attribution.”The deadliest loss on the list remains the March 12 crash of a KC-135 Stratotanker. Two of the seven KC-135s in the report were involved in an incident over friendly airspace. One crashed in western Iraq, killing all…

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! The U.S. military has lost or sustained damage to at least 81 aircraft during the war with Iran — nearly double the number identified five months ago, according to a new government analysis that warns replacing some of the critical vehicles could strain the military’s ability to meet demands elsewhere.The aircraft include some of the military’s most advanced fighters and critical support aircraft, as well as dozens of drones, the Congressional Research Service (CRS) noted in its report.The tally is nearly double the 42 aircraft CRS identified in May as lost or damaged, although the increase partly reflects additional information becoming publicly available and does not mean all 39 additional aircraft were lost or damaged since that assessment.ALARMING MISSILE REPORT DRAWS FORCEFUL RESPONSE FROM TRUMP AS IRAN WAR TESTS AMERICA’S ARSENAL CRS, a nonpartisan arm of the Library of Congress that provides research and analysis to lawmakers and congressional committees, identified 12 F-15E Strike Eagles, an F-35A Lightning II, seven KC-135 refueling tankers, an E-3 Sentry airborne warning-and-control aircraft and 45 MQ-9 Reaper drones among those lost or damaged since Operation Epic Fury began on Feb. 28, 2026.The body also warned that…

The phrase “80-20 issue” is thrown out quite a bit in spaces such as these. But Tuesday, a 95-5 issue seems to have emerged.The 95% in this case? The people on the internet bashing a piece from The Athletic that attacked WNBA guard Sophie Cunningham.Columnist Candace Buckner argued that the soon-to-be free agent was a “combustible” figure whose “turbulent” opinions were a distraction to the Indiana Fever. Never mind that Cunningham’s most publicized stance — that biological males shouldn’t compete in female sports — is shared by the vast majority of the country.This page may contain affiliate links to legal sports betting partners.

SOPHIE CUNNINGHAM SENDS MESSAGE TO HER HATERS AFTER SAYING MEN DON’T BELONG IN WOMEN’S SPORTSBuckner’s conclusion? That the Fever must part ways with Sophie so that they “can go back to being a basketball team.” This sparked the public to break out their drivers.Among the most prominent critics teeing off was nine-time Wimbledon winner Martina Navratilova, a staunch advocate of keeping men out of women’s spaces.

We’ve got big drama in the Little League World Series.For the second year in a row, sign-stealing accusations have blown up on the internet, with the latest taking place in Friday’s game between Wisconsin and Iowa.It just means more in Williamsport!Davenport Northwest (Iowa) defeated Whitefish Bay (Wisconsin), 7-6, in the Midwest Regional Championship game on Friday. The win sent Davenport to the Little League World Series, and sent poor Whitefish home to, presumably, start school.But was there something nefarious at play? Let’s head to the bottom of the second inning, where Iowa plated a couple runs and raised a few eyebrows along the way:This isn’t the first time the LLWS has dealt with this”They’re taking signs on second,” the catcher tells his coach during a mound visit.”Who is?” manager Kyle Fox responded.”The second baseman.”The kids go on to tell Fox that Northwest players are tapping their leg when the sign is put down, which is pretty clear from the video. Fox ignores it, and proceeds to give his pitcher a scouting report for the next batter. An inning later, things reached a boiling point with the bases loaded. That’s when another Iowa player on second appeared to motion something with his…

The Tank Museum isn’t on the way to anywhere. Located one mile north of the village of Wool in Dorset in southwest England, The Tank Museum is collocated with the British Army Armor School in Bovington. Nobody gets to The Tank Museum by accident. It’s in the middle of no place. The number of armored vehicles at The Tank Museum (both on display in the museum and in the “overflow area” in the Vehicle Conservation Centre) is stunning. Considering the Brits drive on the wrong side of the road, and each edge of their two-way thoroughfares is typically close enough to touch with your outstretched hands, why would anybody choose to seek out this obscure military base located deep in the British hinterlands? Well, that’s where you find The Tank Museum. The Tank Museum has the largest collection of tanks on Planet Earth. Why wouldn’t I go? Origin Story At the end of World War I, the British dragged a bunch of tanks out to Dorset and beat them to death with the intent of improving their armored force. By 1923, the area around Bovington was generously littered with rusting hulks. That’s when no less a literary luminary than Rudyard…

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! Former Disney star David Henrie is opening up about how he rejected the “secular” Hollywood lifestyle after going on a life-changing monastery visit.Earlier this week, the “Wizards of Waverly Place” star was a guest on Raymond Arroyo’s “Arroyo Grande” podcast and discussed how his friendship with fellow actor Kevin James led to him discovering his faith.”I started changing my whole perspective on life and faith. I so craved an objective belief system. I grew up in relativistic Hollywood and, you know, a partying lifestyle, secular life, worldliness, materialism, and it left me empty,” Henrie said. “I call it the bubblegum theory of pleasure. Every time you eat a piece of bubblegum, it loses its flavor. In a few moments, you pop another one in. At the end of the day, you’ve gone through the whole pack, and now you just feel worse than you did when you started. That was me before I met Kevin,” he continued.HEATHER LOCKLEAR SAYS SHE LIVES ‘FAR AWAY’ FROM HOLLYWOOD AND STAYS OUT OF THE SOCIAL SCENEHenrie detailed that he found God during this time, and James extended an invitation to him to visit St. Michael’s Abbey…

It’s only preseason — and that goes for everyone.The players. The coaches. The fans. All of it. We’re all in this together. We’re all kicking off the rust and getting back into playing shape together.It’s a marathon, not a sprint.That being said, things didn’t go great for the Atlanta Falcons in Friday’s opener against the Denver Broncos. For starters, new QB Tua Tagovailoa was pretty ‘meh.’ He completed a handful of short passes to Kyle Pitts, and fumbled the second snap of the game.That was Tua in midseason form, by the way. Nobody loves a good fumbled snap more than him. Trust me. I had to watch it for four seasons.Anyway, Atlanta went into the locker room trailing, 24-0, and Denver coach Sean Payton made sure to kick the entire city while it was down:Sean Payton is in midseason form”Yeah … a lot of people dressed up as empty seats today, so, anyway …” Lordy. Brutal shot at the Atlanta faithful. Not great! A couple things …The Braves are home this weekend, and were playing at the exact same time as the Falcons last night. They’re in the thick of a division race right now. The Falcons are not.It’s preseason.…

It’s time for another edition of Saturday Screencaps where we dive into everything that happened last night while you were out on the patio Respecting Summer.Let’s get started with a trip to Indianapolis where Sophie Cunningham had herself a night. Her and the Fever pulled out a 98-87 win and then Sophie went right to Clayton’s Country Bar in downtown Indy where she got up on the bar and belted out Toby Keith’s classic, “Courtesy of the Red, White & Blue,” like a real patriot. I’ll continue to say it: You don’t love Sophie Cunningham enough.This isn’t fake emotion. This is a woman who doesn’t care what the disgusting LIBS think of her. She wants dudes out of female sports and she loves this great country. Suck it, lefties.SOPHIE CUNNINGHAM INSPIRES HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETES TO SPEAK OUT ON FAIRNESS IN WOMEN’S SPORTSHow did I know that Sophie ended her night at Clayton’s singing her heart out?

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! High profile Democrats aren’t backing off their support for Maine Senate candidate Troy Jackson following reports he fathered children with his cousin.Former Democratic National Committee Chairwoman Donna Brazile was among the chorus of party voices throwing cold water on the claims about Jackson in a scandal-plagued Senate race that was already upended after former far-left candidate Graham Platner was forced to drop out earlier this summer following a series of controversies that culminated in a rape allegation.And now, Jackson is facing even more turmoil with the most recent revelations of a 1988 police report accusing him of assault.”There’s a lot of people who are doing a lot of gossip as news, and I don’t want to break news that might not be true — especially on something so personal — that’s not what I do,” Brazile told Fox News Digital when asked about the report Jackson had two children with his cousin and longtime partner Lana Pelletier.

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! FIRST ON FOX: An Iranian psychologist who publicly appealed to President Donald Trump to stand by Iranians protesting the Islamic Republic has been sentenced to seven months in prison, while his relatives say authorities tried to pressure him into recording a video insulting Trump and Americans. Seyed Ahmad Seyedabdollahi, a 32-year-old psychologist and counselor from Borujen who had been living in Tehran, posted an English-language video on Jan. 4 directly addressing Trump. In the video, reviewed by Fox News Digital, he urged the president to act quickly on his pledge to support Iranian protesters, saying young Iranians had trusted his words and that those who helped the Iranian people would be remembered.””…To prove your good intentions to the Iranian people, either do something without saying anything or act very quickly on your words, because many young people trust what you say. And, as you probably know, many things are useless to people who are dead.I assure you that the Iranian nation remembers good deeds well, and they will try to repay their friends in the future.”TRUMP ADMIN BYPASSES TEHRAN’S ISOLATION CAMPAIGN TO REACH IRANIANS DIRECTLY Ten days later, on Jan. 14, Seyedabdollahi was…

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! The sweeping policy shift announced Tuesday to end Medicaid funding for youth sex-change treatments is being hailed by at least one veteran pediatrician, who argued that the procedures were never “compassionate” approaches for children facing gender dysphoria.In an interview with Fox News Digital, Dr. Quentin Van Meter, the immediate past president of the American College of Pediatricians (ACPeds), reflected on the new restrictions issued by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS).”I’m really congratulating HHS and CMS for… taking the step to block the medical and surgical interventions or funding for those in those healthcare systems… primarily because it’s not an appropriate kind of intervention,” Van Meter said.Despite claims that children will be left to suffer under the policy change, Van Meter, a pediatric endocrinologist, asserted that government intervention is not meant to strip them of the care they need, arguing instead for ongoing mental health treatment to address the underlying issues driving their distress.MEDICAID ENDS FUNDING FOR CHILD SEX-CHANGE PROCEDURES AS TRUMP ADMIN SLAMS ‘EXPERIMENTAL’ TREATMENTS “This is not denial of care.

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! A legal expert is calling for a leadership overhaul at the Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History (NMAH), arguing the museum has embraced a negative, “self-loathing” portrayal of the nation’s past.”I think this is part of a broader effort by radicals on the left to redefine the history of the United States and reframe it in an oppressor-versus-oppressed narrative,” Cully Stimson, a senior legal fellow at the Heritage Foundation and former assistant U.S. attorney for Washington, D.C., told Fox News Digital.”Instead of looking at American history chronologically with all the triumphs and tragedies, including slavery, and then the things that our country did to eradicate the vestiges of slavery, and then passing the 13th, 14th and 15th Amendments and the Civil Rights Acts and getting rid of various other laws that were discriminatory in practice or in spirit. They take a very pro-reparations, ‘we’re a bad country,’ oppressor-versus-oppressed narrative.”The comments come after a July 2026 White House report accused the Smithsonian of advancing DEI and left-wing agendas, prompting a pair of heated congressional hearings that put National Museum of American History Director Anthea Hartig under the national spotlight.DESCENDANT OF SLAVES SHAMES SMITHSONIAN’S…
