October 14th, 2026. One person is dead and 19 others

00:00:14.619 --> 00:00:18.539
are injured after a bus and truck collided on Route
5
00:00:18.539 --> 00:00:21.699
91 in northern Israel. The Shas leader says his party
6
00:00:21.750 --> 00:00:24.929
will not support the next government. without a law regulating
7
00:00:24.969 --> 00:00:29.190
the military service status of Haredim. Yemen's Houthis are threatening
8
00:00:29.250 --> 00:00:33.729
more attacks on Saudi airports and oil facilities. Iran has
9
00:00:33.890 --> 00:00:38.549
executed a 38-year-old man accused of supporting Israel and exiled
10
00:00:38.590 --> 00:00:43.060
Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi. And in Ukraine, new restrictions on
11
00:00:43.179 --> 00:00:48.259
SpaceX Starlink services are disrupting military operations. Sitting in for
12
00:00:48.299 --> 00:00:50.960
Gaddy Zeig, I'm Ezra Taylor. Let's get to the news.
13
00:00:51.500 --> 00:00:54.560
We begin in northern Israel where one person was killed
14
00:00:54.759 --> 00:00:58.020
and 19 others injured in a collision between a bus
15
00:00:58.189 --> 00:01:01.530
and a truck on Route 91. The incident occurred near
16
00:01:01.609 --> 00:01:06.049
Mishmar Hayaden. Firefighters extracted a person trapped inside the bus
17
00:01:06.209 --> 00:01:10.290
who was pronounced dead at the scene. Turning to Israeli politics,
18
00:01:10.510 --> 00:01:13.969
Shas Chairman Arieh Dery has said that his party will
19
00:01:14.019 --> 00:01:18.180
not join or support the next government unless legislation regulating
20
00:01:18.219 --> 00:01:22.640
the military service of ultra-orthodox yeshiva students is passed. The
21
00:01:22.680 --> 00:01:27.959
declaration comes ahead of the October 27th Knesset election. Dery
22
00:01:28.079 --> 00:01:31.420
said there would be no government with Shas' support or
23
00:01:31.480 --> 00:01:36.040
participation unless the status of yeshiva students is regulated, regardless
24
00:01:36.079 --> 00:01:40.540
who forms the next coalition. Meanwhile, in Saudi Arabia, Yemen's
25
00:01:40.560 --> 00:01:44.579
Houthis have vowed to continue attacks on airports and oil facilities,
26
00:01:45.000 --> 00:01:49.079
saying they struck the headquarters of oil giant Saudi Aramco.
27
00:01:49.189 --> 00:01:53.950
The Iran-aligned group said it launched ballistic missiles, cruise missiles
28
00:01:54.129 --> 00:01:58.329
and drones at facilities in Riyadh and other areas. The
29
00:01:58.370 --> 00:02:01.069
threats follow a series of attacks over the past week,
30
00:02:01.170 --> 00:02:04.650
including Saturday's strike on Riyadh airport that killed 13 people.
31
00:02:05.670 --> 00:02:10.289
In Iran, authorities executed 38-year-old mountaineer and musician Ali Sina
32
00:02:10.449 --> 00:02:14.620
Mostafi on Wednesday. Iran's judiciary accused him of carrying out
33
00:02:14.810 --> 00:02:17.979
armed attacks during the war with Israel and the United
34
00:02:18.020 --> 00:02:21.740
States earlier this year, supporting Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi and
35
00:02:21.879 --> 00:02:25.620
maintaining links with Israel. His execution followed the Supreme Court's
36
00:02:25.639 --> 00:02:30.099
decision to uphold the death sentence. Pahlavi's communications team said
37
00:02:30.159 --> 00:02:34.280
that Mostafi had been tortured into confessing and convicted in
38
00:02:34.319 --> 00:02:38.120
a sham trial. And finally, in Ukraine, SpaceX has introduced
39
00:02:38.159 --> 00:02:43.080
restrictions on some Starlink services, preventing its military-grade version from
40
00:02:43.199 --> 00:02:47.219
operating at speeds above 160 kilometers an hour. A Ukrainian
41
00:02:47.280 --> 00:02:51.539
presidential advisor said that defense forces received no warning, leading
42
00:02:51.599 --> 00:02:55.250
to the disruption of several missions. Ukrainian officials fear the
43
00:02:55.289 --> 00:02:57.789
move may have been made at the request of U.S.
44
00:02:57.830 --> 00:03:00.789
President Donald Trump. That's it from us on the J-Post
45
00:03:00.810 --> 00:03:03.810
headlines for now. More news analysis and the latest updates
