[00:00:20] A senior official in the United Arab Emirates refutes the report that Prime Minister
[00:00:24] Netanyahu was warned by UAE President Ben Zayed before the October 7th massacre.
[00:00:28] In an interview with the Emirati newspaper National,
[00:00:32] the anonymous official explained that the Emirates
[00:00:35] discusses security issues with other countries through
[00:00:39] the relevant bodies and does not discuss such details
[00:00:42] at the leadership level. The official's remarks reinforce
[00:00:46] the official response of the Emiratis at the beginning of the month, which did
[00:00:49] not explicitly deny the conversation between Netanyahu and the UAE President.
[00:00:53] The President of the State, Isaac Herzog,
[00:00:56] announced today that he has decided to erase the criminal record
[00:01:00] of Elor Azaria, who was convicted in 2016 for shooting
[00:01:04] a neutralized terrorist in Hebron during his
[00:01:07] regular service. Roynovsky, our correspondent, we turn to you with the decision
[00:01:10] that is being made contrary to the position of the IDF. Yes,
[00:01:14] good morning, Yonatan, and the bottom line is, President Herzog
[00:01:17] decides to shorten the period of the criminal record, meaning to effectively erase the criminal record
[00:01:21] of Elor Azaria, contrary
[00:01:24] to the opinion of the army, in an official statement,
[00:01:27] long and full of justifications.
[00:01:30] Which begins, according to the President, by stating that the decision is in the spirit of these days
[00:01:34] of correction and reconciliation, and in fact
[00:01:37] he lists a series of justifications, among
[00:01:40] others, the time that has passed since the incident and especially
[00:01:44] his desire to remove the obstacles he currently faces in the areas of employment and
[00:01:47] to open a new chapter in his life.
[00:01:50] The significant point here is that this is done against the opinion of the Chief of Staff
[00:01:54] and against the opinion of the army. In fact, the army explains that there are a series of
[00:01:57] factors that examine such requests. The main reason
[00:02:01] why they objected to the deletion of the criminal record
[00:02:05] is that to this day Azaria has not expressed remorse for
[00:02:08] his actions, but they emphasize that their recommendation goes to the minister,
[00:02:12] the minister gives his opinion to the president, and of course
[00:02:15] the army's recommendation is a recommendation, the minister and the president can decide otherwise,
[00:02:18] what happened, so the bottom line is President Herzog
[00:02:22] decides to delete the criminal record of Elor Azaria
[00:02:25] contrary to the opinion of the Chief of Staff. Roy,
[00:02:28] thank you. In Europe, preparations are being made for Russia's attempts to expand the fighting
[00:02:32] in Ukraine to other countries on the continent. In Germany
[00:02:35] and Britain, they are refreshing emergency plans for the home front.
[00:02:38] Yoav Zehavi, our foreign affairs correspondent. Hello. Yes, hello
[00:02:41] Yonatan. So Europe is raising its alert level against Russia.
[00:02:44] Yesterday, Poland scrambled fighter jets and put its air defense systems
[00:02:48] on high alert following Russian attacks in Ukraine.
[00:02:52] Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk warned last week that Russia
[00:02:56] could try to infiltrate drones or launch
[00:02:59] missiles into the territory of NATO countries, and then present those
[00:03:03] incidents as an accident in an attempt to test if NATO
[00:03:06] would respond. In the Baltic states, Latvia and Lithuania,
[00:03:10] they are strengthening their air defense. In France,
[00:03:13] President Macron orders the protection of critical infrastructure, and in Britain
[00:03:16] and Germany, they are also refreshing emergency plans for the home front.
[00:03:20] President Putin, on the other hand, the President of Russia, said over the weekend
[00:03:23] that some European leaders are openly preparing for war with
[00:03:27] Russia in order to divert public attention from their own troubles,
[00:03:30] of those countries. We will say, however, there is currently no indication of an imminent
[00:03:34] war, but Europe is clearly preparing for the possibility that the confrontation
[00:03:37] will spill beyond the borders of Ukraine. Thank
[00:03:41] you very much, Yoav. Now for the weather forecast. Today, there will be a slight
[00:03:44] drop in temperatures, and they will be normal for the season in most
[00:03:47] areas. Tomorrow, Monday, Yom Kippur, another slight warming, especially
[00:03:51] in the cities and inland. On Tuesday, temperatures will drop slightly,
[00:03:55] and on Wednesday, another slight cooling. And these are the entry times
[00:03:59] for Yom Kippur. In Jerusalem, the fast begins at
[00:04:02] 5:58. The fast ends at 7:13.
[00:04:06] In Tel Aviv, the fast begins at 6:22. The fast
[00:04:09] ends at 7:15. In Haifa, entry
[00:04:13] at 6:09, exit at 7:00, and in Beersheba,
[00:04:17] entry at 6:21, exit at 7:04.
[00:04:20] Also.
[00:04:22] And before we finish, here's what awaits you in the Kan News edition on Monday,
[00:04:26] after Yom Kippur.
[00:05:07] I was at the Carmel market not long ago, and someone
[00:05:10] shouts "Ziona" to me.
