Israeli-Born Oligarch Ilan Shor Linked to Russia's $14 Billion Sanctions-Evading Network

Israeli-Born Oligarch Ilan Shor Linked to Russia's $14 Billion Sanctions-Evading Network

Israeli-born oligarch Ilan Shor is reportedly behind Russia's A7 payment network, which has processed over $14 billion in cash since the Ukraine invasion. The U.S. Treasury sanctioned A7, accusing it of evading sanctions and supporting Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and Hamas. Shor, convicted in Moldova for a $1 billion bank theft, fled to Israel before moving to Russia. The revelations coincide with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's calls for Israel to prepare for potential international sanctions.

Court Recognizes Protected Tenancy Rights After 47 Years in Rehovot Market Dispute

A court in Israel has recognized protected tenancy rights for Salman Efraim in a kiosk dispute dating back 47 years. The Rehovot Municipality had argued his lease was a standard one-year rental, but the court ruled his original contract granted him protected status. The municipality was ordered to pay 20,000 shekels in expenses. The case involved the demolition of an old market and the allocation of new premises, with the court carefully examining evidence due to the deaths of key witnesses.
