A group of around eight people, some holding hands, jump together from the North Tower.

This building survived two world wars. It couldn’t survive pro-Palestinian rioters.

Mayor Mamdani devoted only 49 words of a 211-word statement to commemorate the worst single day attack on Jews since the Holocaust, in a city that is home to the largest Jewish population outside Israel. He avoided any real description of what happened on October 7, including mass murder, burnings, beheadings, executions, and sadism toward Jews, Arabs, and foreign workers, including women, children, teenagers, and the elderly. He refused to call Hamas a terrorist organization or acknowledge that none of this would have happened had the group honored the ceasefire it unilaterally broke. There was no assignment of agency or responsibility to any Palestinian actor. Yet he used the remaining 162 words to describe in detail what happened in Gaza after the attack. He showed full capacity to recognize Palestinian suffering, which is real and must be acknowledged, but his statement was tone deaf, inconsiderate, and antagonizing to millions who deserve their trauma recognized on its own terms. He has spoken endlessly about his anti-Israel views and will continue to do so, but this was the one day in which he could have offered unconditional compassion to the victims and survivors of October 7 and their loved ones, many of whom have deep roots in New York. This type of statement ignores basic logical principles like cause and effect, choices and consequences, actions and reactions, priorities and implications, further infantilizing the Palestinians and ignoring the failures of Hamas and Palestinian leadership that have harmed their own people. It hardens attitudes toward Gazans and reduces empathy for the vast and unspeakable suffering in the coastal enclave, rather than increasing it. @NYCMayor: sometimes less is better. You should have stayed with your first 49 words, especially as unhinged “pro-Palestine activists” are celebrating October 7 today across the country. Stand up to your base, Mr. Mamdani. You have already won and do not need to appease radicals at the expense of Jewish New Yorkers. And please stop pretending that this is about helping Palestinians or caring for Gazans.

Alireza Sepahi married in prison while facing execution. A heart attack delayed his hanging. The Islamic Republic killed him anyway, and executed Alireza Raeesi alongside him. Our thoughts are with Mahshad and both families. Those who ordered, authorised and carried out these killings must face justice. We will not stop demanding accountability.

We polled five routes for Trump to leave office before the end of his term. A plurality of Dems support four of them, including a military coup and death by natural causes. The only one underwater, an assassination, is still supported by 29%.

We went inside a secret school in Afghanistan, where more than 30 girls risk being arrested for gathering in the basement of a private home to continue their education under Taliban rule. As we were leaving, their teacher handed CBS New's @ImtiazTyab 21 letters the girls wrote by hand for us. They called them “Letters to the World.” The girls poured their hopes, fears and dreams onto those pages, knowing they might never get the chance to share them with the outside world themselves. They wrote about the education they lost, the futures they still dream of and their simple wish to live freely as girls. They trusted us to carry their voices beyond that basement. And we promised them we would. These are their voices, in their own words. To read all 21 letters: cbsn.ws/4cGAdbj

After ejecting from a fighter jet shot down over Iran, U.S. Air Force officer Bravo broke his back, arm and shoulder upon impact with the ground. Badly injured and stranded in a valley surrounded by cliffs, he mustered the strength to climb a 7,000-foot ridgeline in order to evade capture.
