News Alert: Biden Calls for Ceasefire

Also: Israel admits to "grave mistake" with deadly strike on aid workers

I know a lot of you in this community rely on Tipping Point to be a primary source of news, which is humbling to me. This ministry is getting the majority of my attention these days, and I want to provide context and information for you.

Starting today, I’m going to begin writing quick, short responses to breaking news events. I can put these together faster than video productions, so look for them from time to time in the future.

For what it’s worth, I’ll prioritize speed, which means they won’t be as polished as our videos—and sometimes my thoughts won’t be fully developed. I’m watching the world like you are. I hope you’ll allow me some flexibility in this format. As always, linking to a media source doesn’t necessarily imply my full agreement with that source, or even with the information being presented. I only want you to know what’s being reported.

I’m also planning to publish a weekly news digest on Tuesdays, beginning next week. ~ Jimmy Evans

After Strike on Aid Workers, Biden Calls for a Ceasefire

Joe Biden and Benjamin Netanyahu spoke yesterday for the first time since Israel’s air strikes on aid workers with World Central Kitchen. Israel admitted that the IDF had made an internal investigation into the strikes and concluded “serious failures” were made by IDF personnel, who made a “grave mistake” by misidentifying the workers as Hamas militants. In other words, the strikes were intentional but based on mistaken identity. This is a huge blow to Netanyahu’s war effort and will absolutely lead to more allies turning against Israel.
