The Times of Israel published Thursday’s occasions as they unfolded.
The Jordanian Foreign Ministry issued a conviction of what it called a violation of Israel’s agreement with the Waqf Islamic Trust, which administers the disputed Temple Mount site in Jerusalem, according to Hebrew media.
It comes after 800 Jews entered the compound to commemorate Tishá Be Av, the fast day commemorating the two temples supposedly held at the site that now houses the Al-Aqsa Mosque, and after several Jews prayed and waved Israeli flags opposed to regulations on the site.
The ministry alleged that Jerusalem had agreed to “hundreds of extremist Jews breaking into Al-Aqsa under the cover of Israeli police.”
He said Israel’s movements were “irresponsible provocations” and “hurt the emotions of Muslims around the world.” He warned of the consequences and called on Israel to “honor the quo” and “respect the mosque and the emotions of the faithful.”
The Shin Bet reports that a Hamas operative fleeing the Gaza Strip to Israel brought with it valuable data about the terrorist organization for which it is running.
Izz al-Din Hussein, 24, attempted to swim into the Jewish state from Gaza on 28 June amid a circle of family unrest and considerations of “persecution and defamation through senior Hamas officials,” Shin Bet said in a statement.
During his voyage in Israeli waters, Hussein temporarily arrested him through the naval forces that moved him to the Shin Bet for questioning.
During his interrogation, investigators learned that Hussein had enlisted in the wing of the Hamas army in 2013 and had begun racing in air defense in 2018, where he directed the shoulder missile unit, to the Shin Bet.
He was holding an anti-aircraft missile in his space and told to throw it in an Israeli army helicopter if one of them approached his home, to kidnap or kill IDF soldiers, he added.

The U.S. economy collapsed amid the coronavirus pandemic between April and June, contracting 32.9% in the last quarter, reports.

Israeli studies can provide a step forward in identifying coronavirus outbreaks: by testing sewer samples to detect lines of the virus.
The project, led by wastewater control generation company Kando, as well as researchers from establishments such as Ben-Gurion University and Haifa Technion, is for paints in other countries, news firm Reuters reports.
Researchers discovered an unknown outbreak in the past in a community off the coast of ashkelon city with this method, according to the report.
First they chose Ashkelon because they believed that few remains of the virus would be in the sewage.
It is observed that the approach is faster to notice COVID-19 epidemics than individual tests.
Kando says he is in talks with several other municipalities – in Israel and – about creating his system.

WASHINGTON – U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo gives his clearest indication to date that the U.S. will seek to impose U.N. sanctions on Iran when the arms embargo expires.
Russia and China, two of the five permanent nations that veto force in the Security Council, need the UN embargo on the sale of traditional arms to Iran to end on October 18, as stipulated in a 2015 resolution.
Pompeo told the Senate Foreign Relations Commission that the United States will provide a solution to enlarge the embargo “in the near future,” which “we hope will be approved through the other P5 members.”
“If this is not the case, we will take the necessary steps to ensure that this arms embargo does not expire,” he said.
The United States has said in the past that it has the strength to “restore” UN economic sanctions that have been lifted as a component of a nuclear agreement with Iran.
“We have the ability to run a snapback and we’ll use it to protect and defend America,” Pompeo told the committee.
The 2015 solution had blessed a denuclearization agreement with Iran negotiated through former President Barack Obama, whose President Donald Trump withdrew in 2018.
Since then, Trump has denounced the U.S. agreement and unilateral sanctions on Iran, but Pompeo argues that the United States remains a “participant” in the agreement, entitled to opposing UN sanctions for violations, as outlined in the 2015 resolution.
Even America’s allies are skeptical of the legal argument and warn that such a move could harm the Security Council as an institution.
France and Britain, the other P5 nations, extend the arms embargo, but say the highest priority is to sustain a diplomatic solution to prevent Iran’s nuclear program.

Kiev, Ukraine – Ukraine has said it will seek to maximize the reimbursement to relatives of the dead when a Ukrainian passenger plane shot down Iran this year.
Ukraine International Airlines Flight 752 crossed two missiles and crashed shortly after taking off from Tehran’s main airport on January 8 amid escalating tensions between the United States and Iran.
Iran’s Civil Aviation Authority said the radar misalignment of an air defense unit is the main “human error” that led to the aircraft’s accidental crash.
Ukraine will “do everything imaginable to maximize compensation” after the incident, foreign minister Dmytro Kuleba said after talks began with an Iranian delegation in Kiev on Thursday.
“The procedure will be easy,” he added in the video release.
Ukraine “will receive justice, no matter how much time and time it costs,” the foreign minister said.
Kuleba says he believes the refund will “slightly relieve the pain and pain of those enjoyed” by the other 176 people who died aboard the plane.

The Israel Museum in Jerusalem, which has been closed since the start of the coronavirus crisis, won a $4 million grant from supporters in the United States to reopen.
The museum’s director, Ido Bruno, announced what he called the “extraordinary” donation, saying he would allow the museum to open “soon” and without relief in workers’ wages.
“I would like to thank the American Friends of the Israel Museum for their intransigence with the Israel Museum,” Bruno said in a statement, according to the Jerusalem Post. “This is a step that expresses confidence in Israeli culture and art, and we thank them from the bottom of our hearts.”
While other museums have reopened in Israel in recent weeks, the Israel Museum has remained closed due to the inability to pay its staff. Only about 10% of the museum’s 400 employees painted the coronavirus crisis, acting as must-have paintings, such as maintaining and preserving the museum’s collection despite its closure.

An expected government resolution to lift an order requiring the closure and purchase of malls over the weekend as a component of measures to involve the coronavirus was postponed until next week due to opposition from some ministers, the Twelfth Channel reported.

BAGDAD – Two rockets attacked Baghdad airport, where the United States is stationed, according to the Iraqi army, adding that there were no casualties.
This is the attack on U.S. interests since October last year in Iraq, a country where the United States and its arch-enemy Iran are fighting for their influence.
The two rockets were undamaged, the Iraqi army said in a statement.
The United States has blamed pro-Iranian factions for attacking their interests in Iraq in recent months.
Iran’s top prominent general, Qassem Soleimani, was killed in January in an attack with an American drone near Baghdad airport, which put Tehran and Washington at the breaking point of a direct confrontation.
“The custodian of the two sacred mosques, King Salman, left the hospital after God blessed him with his physical condition and well-being,” state media said in a caption accompanying images of the monarch leaving the building.
The Chancellery also tweeted a video of the king leaving the hospital, walking with a cane and accompanied in a procession to his son, Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.
The royal court said a week ago that he had had laparoscopic surgery on the gallbladder at King Faisal Hospital in Riyadh.
Saudi Arabia rarely reports on the suitability of the aging monarch, who has led the Arab world’s oil economy and exporter since 2015.
However, the king’s hospitalization led Iraqi Prime Minister Mustafa al-Kadhemi to postpone his plan for Saudi Arabia.
In 2017, Saudi Arabia rejected reporting and hypothesis that the king planned to abdicate in favor of Prince Mohammed, who is the de facto leader.
