(Worthy Insights) – Israel-based defense company Plasan recently introduced the All-Terrain Electric Mission Module (ATeMM), a cutting-edge system designed to enhance military mobility and efficiency. The system supports a wide range of battlefield applications, including logistics, energy, munitions and sensors.

For over a decade, modern warfare has become increasingly automated and precise, relying less on human soldiers in some cases. The past 16 months of Israel Defense Forces (IDF) operations in Gaza, Lebanon, and other fronts have highlighted this shift, with drones dominating the skies and AI-powered combat systems playing a growing role.

Plasan, however, sees the future of military technology in integrated, multidisciplinary systems like the ATeMM. “This is basically an electric driveline with two wheels that is connected to a leading vehicle—connected in such a way that it becomes part of the vehicle drive itself,” explained Duby Cohen, vice president of Integrated Systems for Plasan, who gave The Media Line a tour of Plasan’s Galilee factory earlier this month.

(Worthy Insights) – As California continues to defy President Donald Trump’s recent executive order forbidding trans athletes from competing in girls’ sports, the state’s residents will see the ramifications of that decision play out on a basketball court this week.

An upcoming high school girls’ basketball playoff game will feature an openly transgender athlete playing for San Francisco Waldorf against Cornerstone Christian on Saturday. The same trans athlete played for Waldorf’s girls’ volleyball team this past fall, prompting Stone Ridge Christian to forfeit a playoff match on Nov. 16.

However, Cornerstone Christian currently intends to play its upcoming game against the trans athlete. [ Source (Read More…) ]

(Worthy Insights) – A scientific mystery that took 10 years to solve was cracked in two days by Google’s artificial intelligence.

The tech giant’s latest AI development is dubbed “co-scientist” and is designed to act as a colleague for researchers, with its own ideas, theories and analysis.

Scientists at Imperial College London had spent a decade solving a mystery in the field of antimicrobial resistance (AMR), which creates superbugs that are immune to antibiotics and are expected to kill millions of people a year by 2050. [ Source (Read More…) ]

(Worthy Insights) – Two serving IDF soldiers who fought in Gaza had to flee Amsterdam and return to Israel after a pro-Palestinian organization tracked them down and doxxed them on social media, Israeli media reported on Tuesday.

The two were visiting the Dutch capital on vacation when Israel Genocide Tracker (@trackingisrael) published their details and photos, claiming they committed “genocide in Gaza.”

The post by Israel Genocide Tracker was also specifically shared with the Hind Rajab Foundation, which works to issue arrest warrants against IDF soldiers. [ Source (Read More…) ]

(Worthy Insights) – King Charles III accepted an accord of reconciliation from the leaders of several major Jewish and Muslim groups in the UK on Wednesday.

The accord marked the first time such a wide breadth of Jewish and Muslim religious denominations had come to an agreement on tackling antisemitic and Islamophobic hatred and violence in the UK.

The accords outline four “principles of reconciliation”: unity in diversity, sacred texts as a guide, commitment to no harm, and recognizing the impact of global crises to reaffirm a shared dedication to peace. [ Source (Read More…) ]

(Worthy Insights) – Thousands of college students gathered at Ohio State University on Tuesday night to seek the hope that’s found in the gospel of Jesus Christ, and nearly 2,000 of them made decisions to give their hearts to God.

It was the second massive revival event of 2025 organized by the Unite US movement, and this time students braved sub-freezing temperatures down in the teens to get baptized in the backs of U-Haul trucks.

“We’ve been in awe of how God has already been moving on this campus over the past year, and He met us here again tonight,” Unite US said in a social media post. “Over 6,500 students gathered in The Schott to lift the name of Jesus and almost 2,000 responded to the altar call – experiencing the freedom only He can bring.” [ Source (Read More…) ]

(Worthy Insights) – Thousands of kilometers separate the Israeli Navy’s missile ships, requiring Flotilla 3 Commander Col. A. to simultaneously hold a satellite communication device with one hand while speaking with a patrol crew near Syria with the other. As the Israeli military establishes five new outposts along the Lebanese border, the navy is tightening its grip on Hezbollah from the west, operating with full freedom to surveil, observe, and strike.

In recent months, Israeli Navy vessels have played a central role in the military’s enforcement strikes in Lebanon, targeting Hezbollah infrastructure and operatives with precision fire from formidable Sa’ar 6-class corvettes. Weighing 2,000 tons, these are the navy’s largest and most advanced ships.

During a special operation in September to destroy an underground missile production site in Masyaf, Syria, the missile boat flotilla played a key role in clearing the way and providing remote cover for Israeli Air Force units. [ Source (Read More…) ]

(Worthy Insights) – Last month, the Chinese government banned oil tankers subject to US sanctions from entering ports in Shandong, the key province for China-Iran trade, through which about 90% of Iranian oil flows.

As a result, China’s imports of Iranian oil plummeted by more than half. According to data from the French analytics firm Kpler, Iran’s oil shipments to China fell below 850,000 barrels per day in January, compared to over 1.8 million barrels per day in October 2023. In 2024, Shandong alone received approximately 1.74 million barrels per day from Iran, Russia, and Venezuela – accounting for about 17% of China’s total imports. However, last month, these figures dropped to less than half.

Iran’s oil export revenues had already been suffering due to US sanctions. Following Iran’s missile attack in October, the Biden administration imposed sanctions on dozens of tankers carrying Iranian oil, leading to a slight decline in China-Iran trade. However, the most significant blow came last month, with some speculating that Beijing’s tougher stance on Iran stems from fears that US President Donald Trump would impose sanctions on China.

Most Iranian oil tankers are now anchored in waters off Singapore and Malaysia, while Tehran scrambles to find non-sanctioned vessels to transport shipments to Shandong. [ Source: Israel Hayom (Read More…) ]

(Worthy Insights) – More than a century after King Tutunkhamun was discovered — elevating the ancient figure to celebrity status — archeologists have uncovered the tomb of King Thutmose II, Egyptian officials declared on Tuesday.

The historically important reveal is said to mark the end of a search for the lost tombs of the kings of ancient Egypt’s Eighteenth Dynasty — which ran from approximately 1550 BC to 1292 BC.

The finding comes more than one hundred years after King Tut’s remains were discovered in 1922, CBS News reported.  [ Source (Read More…) ]
