Israel

How does 🇮🇱 democracy work? In Israel, every citizen aged 18 and over has the right to vote. One vote determines which party they support. The results determine how the 120 seats in the Knesset are distributed, which parties enter parliament and who can form a government. A 3.25% electoral threshold. A parliamentary majority of 61 seats.

🇯🇴🇮🇱 Today, we mark 32 years since the signing of the Israel–Jordan Peace Treaty: a historic milestone that laid the foundation for dialogue and cooperation between our two countries. Especially during challenging times, the strategic treaty remains a cornerstone of regional stability and a solid platform for future mutually beneficial initiatives.

The Palestinian wave of terror continues. Two IDF soldiers were murdered this morning in a shooting attack near Judea Junction. A large-scale Hamas terrorist attack targeting innocent civilians was foiled, as evidenced by the substantial quantities of weapons and ammunition discovered. Our brave soldiers acted with courage and determination and prevented an even more devastating terrorist attac

Another murderous attack on Israelis in Judea and Samaria. Five Israelis wounded, two critically, in yet another Palestinian terrorist attack near Hebron. This is part of a deadly wave of Palestinian terrorism targeting Jews. Palestinian incitement, the Palestinian Authority's Pay for Slay policy, and an education system that encourages murdering Jews fuels this violence. There can be no just
