Netanyahu's Office Silent on Trump's Claim of Aid Halt

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office has not denied US President Donald Trump's announcement that $4 billion in annual US military aid to Israel will be halted by the end of 2026. The announcement surprised Israeli officials, as the current aid agreement extends until 2028. Netanyahu's office framed the shift as a move from aid to partnership, while President Isaac Herzog expressed concern. The US has provided over $300 billion in aid to Israel since 1948.

Israel Water Prices to Rise Slightly in 2027

Water prices in Israel will increase by about 2.3% in 2027, raising monthly bills for a family of five by an estimated 3 to 3.5 shekels. The Water Authority Council approved the hike with a narrow one-vote margin, rejecting a proposal for a nearly 6% increase. This adjustment covers an additional 260 million shekels in water system expenses. Households are encouraged to review their water consumption and entitlements to manage costs.
