High Court Considers Ministerial Role in Appointing Criminal Investigation Overseers

Israel's High Court of Justice heard arguments on whether the Justice Minister can appoint supervisors for criminal investigations when senior law enforcement officials have conflicts of interest. The case arose from the investigation into former military advocate-general Yifat Tomer-Yerushalmi, concerning a detention facility leak. The court is establishing rules for future cases, focusing on maintaining investigation independence while addressing conflicts. Arguments included whether the selection should remain within the legal system or if ministerial appointment is a necessary last resort.

Nvidia's Israeli Tax Payments to Double to $2.6 Billion

Nvidia's tax payments in Israel are expected to nearly double to $2.6 billion this fiscal year, up from $1.29 billion last year. Israel is the only country outside the U.S. listed separately in Nvidia's tax report, largely due to its acquisition of Mellanox. The company benefits from significant tax incentives in Israel, reducing its effective rate. However, a new 15% global minimum tax starting in 2026 could increase Nvidia's payments significantly, though some funds may be offset by R&D credits.

Children Participated in Ancient Clay Figurine Creation in Levant 15,000 Years Ago

Archaeologists from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem found that children, some under ten, helped create clay figurines in the Levant 15,000 years ago. Analysis of 154 Natufian artifacts revealed fingerprints indicating active participation in shaping and painting. This discovery, predating agriculture, suggests a sustained tradition of clay art and the intergenerational transfer of cultural skills. The figurines, including birds possibly representing seasonal behavior, show early artistic and symbolic expression.
