Israel Air Force Has Protocol to Down Hijacked Passenger Planes

Israel Air Force Has Protocol to Down Hijacked Passenger Planes

Israel's military has a special protocol, codenamed "World Trade," to respond to hijacked civilian aircraft, potentially including shooting them down. The directive was revealed following a recent hijacking attempt on a Flydubai flight. Activated by distress signals like code 7500, the order aims to prevent mass casualties and attacks on strategic sites. The decision to destroy a plane requires high-level security and political approval and is considered a last resort to avert greater disaster.

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.
