Trump Backs Netanyahu Amidst Pressure Campaign

U.S. President Donald Trump has publicly endorsed Benjamin Netanyahu for Prime Minister of Israel, a first in U.S.-Israel relations. This support followed a lobbying campaign by Trump's advisors, despite opposition in Washington and Trump's previous reluctance to endorse specific candidates. The move comes after Trump's past endorsement of Viktor Orbán, who lost an election, and amid U.S. opposition to Netanyahu over the conflict with Iran.

Man Convicted of Bribing Former Presidential Adviser for Government Favors

Mazid Hamdan was convicted of bribery by the Haifa District Court for paying Ze’ev Dolinsky, a former senior adviser to ex-President Reuven Rivlin, to help advance requests with government ministries. Hamdan admitted the offenses under a plea agreement, and a joint recommendation for a six-and-a-half-month community service sentence has been made. The bribes facilitated various requests, including planning approvals and passport applications, between 2018 and 2020. This conviction is part of a broader case that includes Nissim Cohen, who previously admitted to bribery and money laundering charges.

Israel Proposes Cutting Solar Subsidies Amid Falling Panel Prices

Israel's Electricity Authority proposed reducing subsidies for low-voltage solar installations by about 5% annually, starting in 2027, due to falling global panel prices. The move aims to lower electricity tariffs and could impact the pace of new solar installations, though small home systems will be exempt from new competitive mechanisms. While subsidies are set to decrease, the total cost is expected to remain similar in 2027, with regulations lasting until 2047. Israel is currently falling short of its renewable energy targets.

Emirates Halts Ticket Sales for Israelis Until Spring 2027

Emirates has suspended ticket sales for Israeli customers on its website, preventing travel with layovers in Dubai until its subsidiary FlyDubai is cleared to fly to Israel. FlyDubai's flights are not expected to begin before late November, and the restriction by Emirates could last until spring 2027. This change forces Israelis to seek alternative routes for travel to the Far East and Japan, as Dubai was a key transit point.
