Israeli Health Funds Face Billions in Deficit Without Government Aid

Israel's four health funds reported a 194 million shekel deficit for 2025, down from the previous year. However, without government aid and exceptional profits, the deficit reaches nearly 4.9 billion shekels. Government funding increased to 4.58 billion shekels in 2025, supporting services and financial stability. The significant deficit without aid raises concerns about the funds' long-term financial stability and potential impact on services.

CrowdStrike Deal Values Israeli Firm XM Cyber's Tech at $600 Million

Cybersecurity firm CrowdStrike has revealed the full $600 million value of its acquisition of Israeli company XM Cyber's technology, primarily paid in stock. The deal, initially announced in July with only $145 million in cash, has seen its stock component surge due to CrowdStrike's rising share price. XM Cyber, founded by former Mossad chief Tamir Pardo and others, was previously sold to Germany's Schwarz Group for $700 million in 2021. CrowdStrike is acquiring XM Cyber's code and patents, not its revenue or clients.
