Five young men from Shaqib al-Salam were allegedly planning attacks inspired by West Bank groups, while another resident, Abdullah Jerjawi, was arrested for inciting extremism and planning an attack. Indictments have been filed for serious terror offenses, with a Shin Bet official calling the development a "real danger" to national security.

Israeli Scientists Develop Economical Green Hydrogen Production Method

Israeli scientists at the Technion have developed a new method to make "green" hydrogen production economically feasible by synthesizing valuable epoxides alongside hydrogen. This process replaces the low-value oxygen byproduct of traditional green hydrogen electrolysis with a high-value chemical, potentially overcoming the main economic barrier to clean fuel adoption. The research, published in Nature Communications, suggests a pathway for profitable green energy transitions without relying on subsidies.
