Domestic Troubles in the Jewish State

Israel ’s latest bombing campaign began on 18 March with a widespread 400 -target strike against Hamas that apparently killed dozens of civilians as well as key figures in the terrorist organisation.

After a series of limited hostage/prisoner exchanges over the previous few months , the Israeli cabinet, with American support, decided to renege on the agreement.

Hezbollah began rocketing northern Israel on 8 October 2023 , in support of the Hamas offensive in the south.

In SeptemberOctober 2024 , Israel launched a massive, highly effective counter-offensive, destroying most of Hezbollah ’s rocket capabilities, killing and maiming thousands of its fighters, and assassinating its legendary leader, Sheikh Hassan Nasrallah .

Hezbollah agreed to withdraw its forces in southern Lebanon to areas north of the Litani river, away from international border, and, by implication, to disarm and halt the resupply of arms from Iran via Syria .

Prime Minister Netanyahu is trying to fire the official who is leading the investigation into his activities and those of his aides.

Attorney-General Gali Baharav-Miara , the government’s legal adviser, has publicly informed the cabinet that she opposes the government's move to remove Bar on technical grounds.
