Arab Society Development Budget Allocation Falls Short, Report Finds

A report by the Mossawa Center indicates that only 26.1% of the planned budget for Arab society development was allocated in 2025, a significant drop from previous years. The "Takadum" plan, initiated in 2021 with a 30 billion shekel budget, has faced multiple cuts and implementation challenges across sectors like education and housing. The center calls for these funds to become a permanent part of the state budget to ensure continuity and prevent political interference.

Sergeant Major Ron Yonatan Reitman, killed in a Hebron-area shooting attack, is remembered through a video he made detailing his intense training for elite military unit tryouts.

The attack also claimed the life of Sergeant Yuval Shi Sulam, prompting a large-scale IDF and Shin Bet operation. The Chief of Staff acknowledged the painful outcome but noted the prevention of a larger attack.

Economists and Business Leaders Slam Netanyahu's Crypto Plan

Economists and Business Leaders Slam Netanyahu's Crypto Plan

More than 100 Israeli economists and business leaders sent a strong letter to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warning against his proposal to use cryptocurrency to bypass potential international sanctions. They argue that sanctions would cause irreversible damage to Israel's economy, leading to unemployment, loss of investment, and a collapse in global standing. The signatories, including Nobel laureates and former finance officials, called Netanyahu's crypto idea "bizarre" and typical of criminal organizations. Netanyahu, however, defended his approach, stating crypto is one of several potential measures.
