Israeli leaders are harshly criticizing an expected decision by the U.S. to impose sanctions on a unit of ultra-Orthodox soldiers in the Israeli military. The decision, expected as soon as Monday, would mark the first time the U.S. has ever imposed sanctions on a unit inside the Israeli military. It also further strains relations between the allies that have grown grown increasingly tense during Israel’s war in Gaza. The move is especially surprising given the close ties between the two armies, which train together and share research and intelligence with one another. Israeli leaders condemned the decision as unfair, especially at a time when Israel is at war, and vowed to oppose it.

Second-tier Coventry nearly pulled off one of the most unexpected comebacks in FA Cup history by rallying from three goals down against Manchester United in the semifinals only to endure another gut-wrenching penalty shootout loss at Wembley. Rasmus Hojlund scored the decisive penalty to save United from another embarrassing collapse after Callum O’Hare and Ben Sheaf had missed their spot kicks for Coventry. It was another heartbreaking ending at Wembley for Coventry, which also lost on penalties to Luton in last year’s Championship playoff final to miss out on promotion to the Premier League. United’s narrow escape sets up another Manchester derby in the final against Manchester City, which beat Chelsea on Saturday.
