Operation Shield and Arrow

INSIDE POLITICS: Netanyahu is using the operation in Gaza to differentiate himself from his Itamar Ben-Gvir and to repair his shattered public image.

MILITARY AFFAIRS: So far there are no signs that the IDF’s masterful tactical wins against Islamic Jihad will yield any extended period of quiet.

Israeli Air Force fighter jets struck four Islamic Jihad military outposts as well as mortar and rocket launch sites in the Gaza Strip.

What is next for Israel and the Gaza Strip? While there is no questioning the legitimacy of the operation, questions can be asked about its overall effectiveness.

SECURITY AFFAIRS: Sometimes being out in the fields, watching rockets launched in front of you and Iron Dome interceptors screaming skyward behind you, is more reassuring than the sirens.

NATIONAL AFFAIRS: How the routine nature of the Gaza-Israel rounds of conflict is both a problem and a source of comfort.

While the air defense system fired as intended, it failed to intercept the Islamic Jihad missile that directly hit the apartment building in Rehovot, Hagari said.

People living within 40 km of the Gaza Strip will be granted free entry into the country's national parks and gardens, including the night parking lots, starting from Thursday.

Ishai Trabelsi has lived under the shadow of Gaza terrorism his whole life - first in Gush Katif and later, after the evacuation, close to the border in the town of Sderot.

Austria and Hungary send messages of support for Operation Shield and Arrow, while the US calls for deescalation.
