NATO is increasing its security level at the Geilenkirchen airfield in Germany due to a possible threat according to the German Focus.

All employees not needed at the base were sent home as a precaution, a spokesman told the newspaper.

During the last week, several NATO bases were subjected to sabotage in Germany. Among other things, there was a sabotage aimed at a German military base’s water system.

“This is not a cause for concern and is merely a precautionary measure to ensure we can continue our critical operations,” the spokesman said.

The Supreme Court of Venezuela supports President Nicolás Maduro’s claim that he won the election held on July 28.

The court also states that the vote figures published online by the opposition, which show that Maduro lost the election by a large margin to opposition candidate Edmundo González Urrutia, are falsified.

The Supreme Court is dominated by people loyal to Nicolás Maduro.

Opposition candidate Edmundo González Urrutia addressed the Supreme Court on Thursday in a post on the X social media platform.

“To the judges of the court: no decision will replace the will of the people. The country and the world know your bias and, as a result, your inability to resolve this conflict,” he wrote, adding:

“Your decision will only make the crisis worse.”

The head of the Shin Bet, Israel’s security police, Ronen Bar sent a letter to Prime Minister Netanyahu on Thursday, warning that “Jewish terror” in the West Bank was putting the country on the brink of disaster, reports the Jerusalem Post.

Bar specifically mentions the deadly attack on the Palestinian village of Jit in the West Bank on August 15 in which a Palestinian was murdered. The attack has been called a serious terrorist incident by the police.

He also accused the country’s security minister Itamar Ben-Gvir and other coalition members of both indirectly and sometimes even explicitly encouraging threats and violence against Palestinians.

He believes it is not enough to call the violence a nationalist crime but that it is “Jewish terror”.
