A | Israel officially launched its election season last week, with parties competing for 120 seats at the Israeli parliament ̶ the Knesset. The elections are expected to take place on 1 November, and Israeli media polls are already releasing their projections for the upcoming race.,A Comeback for Netanyahu,Ex-Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is leading the latest polls. His Likud Party is projected to grab 34 seats in the chamber, four more than the March 2021 elections. Other surveys predict that he may win even more spots. Aviv Bushinsky, who served as Netanyahu’s media advisor, explained that there is an "80 percent chance" his former boss will soon be making a comeback.,Arab-Israeli Community Ready to Stand Up Against Netanyahu as They Prepare for His Return1 July, 05:23 GMT,Bushinsky claimed that the policies of the Naftali Bennett government help Netanyahu’s popularity, despite his ongoing trial in which he is accused of bribery, fraud and breach of trust.,"The previous government did a number of good things like the way they handled COVID-19, the quiet they established vis-a-vis Gaza and the fact that there is no deficit in Israel," said Bushinsky. "But that coalition was weak. It couldn't legislate anything.,They focused on the maintenance and on counting seats and they created a feeling among many Israelis that the Arabs dominate the parliament unproportionally. Their demands were too high and very often [those Arab parties] aligned themselves with the Palestinians," he added.,Past Mistakes?,Since its inception in June 2021, the Bennett government has been relying on the support of Raam, an Islamic parliamentary faction believed to have ties with the Muslim Brotherhood*.,To win its support, the government allocated some $10.5 billion to the needs of the Arab community, specifically to tackle growing crime rates and unemployment, as well as improve poor infrastructure. Later, it was also revealed that another Arab party -- the Joint Arab List -- received more than $60 million in exchange for its "cooperation" in the Knesset.,Netanyahu Throws Likud Ally Under the Bus After He Proposes Including Arab Party in Coalition26 June, 18:21 GMT,Some Israelis perceived this as bribing the Arab parliamentarians in order to keep the coalition intact. Others saw the main reason for the dire security situation and the wave of terrorist activity in these actions.,Not an Easy Fight,However, Bushinsky believes that Netanyahu’s comeback will not be easy, and his success will largely depend on who will agree to join his coalition.,For now, there are not so many buyers. Current PM Yair Lapid holds a grudge against Netanyahu and is unlikely to give up his seat. The head of Yisrael Beitenu Party also has bad blood with the former premier, as do many other politicians.,Yet, Bushinsky explained that it is not a hopeless case.,"[The head of the Blue and White party] Benny Gantz didn't rule out that he would sit with Netanyahu. Yamina under [Interior Minister Ayelet] Shaked might do that as well, although we don't know how strong her party will be".,"One thing is for sure: Netanyahu is preparing an aggressive campaign," he informed.,‘We Will Not Join Him’: Gantz Parries Claims He Courted Likud, But Bennett’s Bloc Still on the Rocks27 May, 20:26 GMT,The focus of Netanyahu’s campaign will reportedly be on highlighting the tendencies of Lapid to tilt towards the liberals. Netanyahu is due to emphasize that Bennett was in a coalition with Raam that purportedly supports terrorists.,Bibi is also expected to allege that his main challenger would divide Jerusalem and make painful concessions to the Palestinians. Netanyahu, on the other hand, will present himself as a defender of Israel and as Mr. Security.,"This is Netanyahu's comfort zone. By conducting a harsh and aggressive campaign, Netanyahu will push the masses out to the ballots and this will increase his chances," said Bushinsky.,"At the same time, if he leads an aggressive campaign against Arabs, it might push them into the ballots too and that might not be in favor of Netanyahu," he added.,In any case, Netanyahu is prepared for a fight. His team is saying that he will be touring Israel and won't leave any stone unturned. He knows that this might be his last change to forge a coalition.,"If he fails, members of the Likud might start thinking that he needs to be replaced so that their party could enter a coalition and establish a government. They might want to give somebody else a chance," summed up Bushinsky.,*Muslim Brotherhood is a terrorist organization banned in Russia.。
报道提到，以色列国防军日前对叙利亚一处军用机场发动空袭。希巴尼在接受采访时称，叙利亚的首要任务是制止以色列发动袭击，需要在这方面采取建立信任的举措。路透社称，美国方面一年多来一直试图促成以色列与叙利亚过渡政府达成一项安全协议，但以色列以国家安全受到威胁为由，向叙利亚境内派遣军队并袭击政府设施，该协议未能达成。希巴尼表示，自伊以冲突爆发以来，有关安全协议的谈判一直处于停滞状态，但他预计谈判将重启。
B | 希巴尼还提到，在叙军用机场日前遭以色列袭击后，两国之间的联系已中断。“我们认为应该进行接触，尤其是与一个不断威胁叙利亚安全的国家。但如果这种接触无法取得结果，那我们就不需要它。
C | ”他补充说，“我们目前不信任以色列。”路透社称，以色列总理办公室暂未就上述消息作出回应。近期，以色列已多次袭击叙利亚。以色列国防部长卡茨8月22日发表声明说，以色列国防军18日对叙利亚西北部伊德利卜省的阿布祖胡尔军用机场发动空袭系因以方获得“明确情报”，显示土耳其有意在该地采取“可能危及以色列安全的行动”。以色列总理办公室也曾指责叙利亚允许土耳其在叙部署军队对以色列构成威胁。
D | 叙利亚过渡政府外交部18日发表声明，强烈谴责以军空袭叙空军基地，称这是“毫无正当理由的侵略行径”。土耳其政府19日说，以方指控是“无稽之谈”。土耳其外交部呼吁“国际社会采取更加坚决的立场，制止以色列不断升级的侵略行为，并确保追究以方违反国际法行为的责任”。
