Judge Halts Retailer’s Bid for Former Hudson’s Bay Space at Yorkdale

Judge blocks department store from moving into former HBC space at Yorkdale mall. A proposed plan to open a new retailer in the former Hudson’s Bay space at Yorkdale Shopping Centre has been stopped by an Ontario judge. The decision blocks a deal that would have transferred the large anchor location to a discount-focused department store operator. The court found that the arrangement did not meet the standards required for such a major tenancy change, supporting Yorkdale’s position that the retailer was not an appropriate fit for the mall’s upscale environment. The ruling ends months of dispute over the future of the vacant three-level space and underscores the challenges malls face as they try to repurpose former department store footprints. Yorkdale, known for its luxury brands and high-end positioning, is now expected to pursue alternatives that better align with its long‑term strategy.

Israel Successfully Intercepts Houthi Missile from Yemen


The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) successfully intercepted a ballistic missile launched by Yemen's Iran-backed Houthi rebels late Monday night. The missile was intercepted before it entered Israeli airspace, triggering sirens across central Israel. Fortunately, there were no reports of casualties or major damage.

The Houthi rebels have been launching missiles and drones at Israel since the start of the war in Gaza on October 7, 2023, claiming solidarity with Palestinians. This recent attack is part of a series of missile launches aimed at Israel, with the Houthis vowing to continue their assaults until the Gaza conflict ends.

In response to the missile launch, Israel conducted retaliatory strikes targeting Houthi infrastructure, including the Sanaa International Airport and power stations. The United States and the United Kingdom have also conducted strikes against Houthi targets in the Red Sea area.

The situation remains tense as both sides continue their attacks, raising concerns about the potential for further escalation in the region.
