Israeli Election Campaign Sees Shifting Media Strategies and Unanswered Questions

Ahead of Israeli elections, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is reportedly managing his campaign independently, leading to a reduced media presence for figures like Miri Regev and Yaakov Bardugo. The strategy may aim to project a more moderate image, though it carries risks. The article also mentions concerns about Benny Gantz, the "Barberman affair," and details from a Flydubai flight incident. Commentator Amnon Abramovich criticized Minister Regev's performance and the Ministry of Transportation. The election is presented as a test of public trust regarding the October 7th events.

EU to Halve Hybrid Car Imports from China Amid Trade Tensions

The European Union will cut Chinese hybrid and plug-in hybrid car imports by half, citing trade imbalances and market instability. European Trade Commissioner Maroš Šefčovič called it a necessary first step, with the EU also seeking better market access in China. This move could lead Chinese manufacturers to increase pressure on the Israeli market, which already sees nearly half its car imports from China. Potential price benefits for Israeli consumers are uncertain due to upcoming changes in vehicle emissions tax calculations.
