Welcome to The Times of Israel’s Daily Briefing, your 15-minute audio update on what’s happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world, from Sunday through Thursday.

Senior analyst Haviv Rettig Gur and military correspondent Emanuel Fabian join host Amanda Borschel-Dan on today's episode.

Early this morning Israeli fighter jets struck a Syrian air defense battery. What was this in response to?

We’re again hearing threats out of the IDF reserves of refusal of service in light of the renewed judicial overhaul legislation. Defense Minister Yoav Gallant warned on Wednesday that a large-scale refusal would harm the security of the nation, but unlike three months ago, appears to crack down on the form of civil protest. What's changed?

Last week, former Police Commissioner Roni Alsheich made controversial remarks regarding the cases against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, sparking renewed theories that the trials are politically motivated. Rettig Gur reviews the arguments.

Discussed articles include:

IAF hits anti-aircraft battery in Syria after missile explodes over Israel

Syrian anti-aircraft missile explodes over Israel as IAF said to strike in Homs

Ex-police chief says he thought Netanyahu would resign following criminal indictment

Turnout rises, several arrested as anti-overhaul protests enter 26th week

Over 100 Air Force reservists say they will refuse to serve if overhaul advances

Gallant says fresh boycott threats by IDF reservists ‘endanger’ Israel’s security
