Former Minister Ayelet Shaked Urges Contractors Not to Lower Housing Prices

Former Minister Ayelet Shaked has signaled to real estate contractors that they should not lower apartment prices, despite market pressures. Shaked, who previously served as Minister of Justice and Minister of Interior, stated that contractors had pressured her into buying a home, and she now commends their resilience. She noted that a contractor who once thwarted deals over a mere 5,000 shekels would now sell for 100,000 shekels less. Shaked also expressed concern about the rapid development in Tel Aviv, fearing that new construction projects might alter the city's character. She urged the public to watch a particular series to its conclusion, regardless of how it is accessed. The article also briefly mentions other political and social commentary, including a new version of the October 7th events attributed to Benjamin Netanyahu, criticism of expensive fish prices, political maneuvering involving Benny Gantz, Gadi Eisenkot, and Avigdor Lieberman, and a personal account of a family dispersed across four countries due to ongoing conflict, with Hebrew signs being prevalent in certain areas.
