There are rumours that a serious incident was thwarted in northern #Israel
Netanyahu is being briefed by the Defense Minister - a gag order has been issued.
Other reports suggest it may be tied to a blast that occurred on a highway in northern Israel, on Monday, seriously wounding a man.
Netanyahu has shortened his trip to Berlin, among others, due to the security incident. He will return to Israel tomorrow instead of Friday.

A good question on Hostomel.

I think it was in fact supposed to be flooded with units, but most didn't make it in time
There was supposed to be a swift takeover of the airport by VDV (airborne troops), alongside combat helicopters, paving the way for the arrival of heavy transports that would take off from Belarus and land in Hostomel
This was supposed to lead to a collapse of Ukrainian defensive lines, compounded by the expectation that Zelenskyy would flee. This collapse would help Russia push as many units into an undefended northern front from Belarus to Kyiv

Interesting statement from #Ukraine's head of military intelligence, who said he believes that if Russia had taken the Hostomel airport last year, Kyiv would likely have fallen
He said Moscow had a plan to take Kyiv in three days, and mop-up "points of resistance" in 10.
He also said Russia had not prepared any kind of alternative plan, and that Moscow expected the Ukrainian leadership to flee.
