Day 452 - How Israel remembers US president Jimmy Carter

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute
audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and
the Jewish world.


Editor David Horovitz joins host Amanda
Borschel-Dan on today's show.


Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is recovering after a
successful prostate removal surgery at the Hadassah Medical
Center in Jerusalem on Sunday. The premier was moved to an
underground, fortified recovery ward where he is expected to
spend several days under observation amid fears he could be
targeted by rocket or missile fire during the ongoing war. What
do we know about Netanyahu's health moving forward?


Netanyahu held a high-level meeting during which he told those
present that Israel will resume fighting after a hostage deal, if
one comes about, according to a Channel 12 report. Horovitz
discusses the fraught ongoing hostage talks and reports that
Hamas has changed the number of hostages that will be released in
any potential first phase.


Jimmy Carter, the longest-lived American president, died on
Sunday at the age of 100. We hear how Carter is remembered in
Israel and how the issue that toppled his presidency -- Iran --
is increasingly resonant for the United States.
