Deputy health minister warns that without improvement, "We will fall into a demographic black hole and it will take us about 150 years to compensate for it."

Israel targets Hezbollah leadership as talks advance, while Lebanese army's Shiite ties raise doubts about the agreement's enforcement.

Hamas and Hezbollah are leveraging artificial intelligence for propaganda and terrorism, with Iran marking it a high-priority target. How should Israel respond to this emerging threat?

Over the course of the last decade, the Iranian UAV industry has become a recognized global brand name, mainly due to the use to which the Russians have put the Iranian UAVs during the ongoing war in Ukraine. Iran, however, began to put the systems it has developed to use – either directly or via its proxy forces – many years previously.

Iran's strategic calculations face a pivotal moment as Israel demonstrates unprecedented reach.

Damage to strategic assets, laying mines, cutting communication cables, and attacks on ships: autonomous underwater vehicles allow a wide range of possibilities and threats, and Israel needs to prepare for this new front.

As the war continues, we must assume that enemies across all fronts will continue to challenge us.

A year after Oct. 7, most of the public is still convinced of the war's righteousness and gives decision-makers generous credit for action.

Even if Israel had the heaviest bunker-busting bombs, it would be difficult to deliver them to the target. According to estimates, Israel may be able to modernize F-15s to carry GBU-57 bombs, along with additional fuel and munitions. This is a technically complex task, but sometimes even the impossible gets done.

The failure of Iran's missile offensive grants Israel the latitude to coolly consider its next move. Unlike Iran, Israel typically opts for swift action, aiming to maintain a clear link between cause and effect. The potential targets are diverse: Israel could adhere to a tit-for-tat strategy (as it did in April), retaliating solely against military objectives – bases, factories, and weapons caches.
