Israel Today: Ongoing War Report - Update from 2026-04-30 at 21:00

HEADLINES
- Controversial past haunts Platner in Maine nomination
- Schumer Gillibrand back Platner to topple Collins
- Entalula Beach named 2026 best beach

The time is now 9:00 PM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.

In Antisemitism and Anti-Jewish Hate, Graham Platner, an oyster farmer and political newcomer, has effectively clinched the Democratic nomination for the US Senate seat in Maine after his primary opponent Janet Mills suspended her campaign on Thursday. Platner’s past Nazi tattoo and his current anti-Israel rhetoric have drawn concern from some Jewish groups. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer announced he would support Platner’s bid to defeat Republican incumbent Senator Susan Collins, a commitment made in a statement with fellow New York Senator Kirsten Gillibrand, who runs the Senate Democrats’ campaign arm. Schumer had initially recruited Mills to run. Mills, the state’s governor, did not endorse Platner or name him in her concession, citing a lack of campaign funds.

In Uplifting News, the world’s best beaches for 2026 were revealed by thousands of tourism experts after a rigorous selection process. The list spotlights remote, unspoiled coastal destinations, with Entalula Beach in the Philippines named the winner, a location reachable only by boat.
