מה קרה

Israel’s Health Ministry reported a sharp rise in teen e-cigarette use in 2025, while a reform bill to regulate and tax the market remains stalled in the Knesset Finance Committee. Officials are split over whether to advance a tax order before the full law is approved.

• 01Teen vaping jumped sharply in 2025 among Arab 8th-grade boys and Jewish 10th-grade boys.
• 02High taxes and weak enforcement pushed Israel’s e-cigarette market into the black market.
• 03A reform bill would register importers, limit product sizes, and add enforcement staff.
• 04The tax plan would cut refill taxes and add a 10-shekel tax on devices.
• 05Ministries disagree on signing the tax order before the full law passes.
