The proposal includes at least 4,000 housing units across various communities, with the Israeli Civil Administration Planning and Zoning Committee overseeing this significant initiative. Israel's diplomatic considerations are evident as it postponed a proposed housing project in the E1 zone, east of Jerusalem, due to concerns from the Biden administration and European countries. Despite differing viewpoints, the ongoing focus remains to provide a thriving future for Israel's inhabitants. WEEKLY FACT is one of the few countries in the world that entered the 21st century with a net gain in its number of trees, due in part to massive afforestation efforts. BEACH DISCOVERY UNVEILS 3000-YEAR-OLD SECRET During a simple beach stroll on Palmachim Beach in Israel, 74-year-old Azerbaijani immigrant, Lydia Marner, discovered a 3000-year-old figurine symbolizing the Egyptian goddess Hathor. The Israel Antiquities Authority (IAA) confirmed that the clay figurine, with its distinguishing bull horn-like hairstyle and prominent features, represents Hathor, who is associated with fertility, strength, protection, and wisdom. The Canaanites, known for adopting Egyptian rituals and customs, likely used these figurines for luck and protection. Lydia's discovery aligns with the IAA's new "Return Them With a Click" campaign, which encourages Israelis to return any found artifacts to the state. This discovery further solidifies Israel as a living museum, where the past continuously integrates with the present, and each artifact contributes to the collective history of the nation, showcasing its resilient and diverse heritage. VOLUNTEER SPOTLIGHT DAVID LEVY | FEED ISRAEL VOLUNTEER | HAIFA "Being a part of Feed Israel has been an incredibly rewarding experience for me. As a middle-aged individual, I have come to appreciate the value of giving back to my community. Volunteering with Feed Israel has allowed me to connect with people from diverse backgrounds and understand their unique challenges. It has made me more compassionate and empathetic towards those who are less fortunate. Seeing the smiles on people's faces when they receive the food packages we deliver is truly heartwarming. It reminds me that even small acts of kindness can have a significant impact on someone's life. Volunteering has not only made a positive difference in the lives of others but has also brought a sense of fulfillment and purpose to my own life. I am grateful for the opportunity to be a part of this wonderful organization." ISRAEL STANDS STRONG AMID IRAN'S ESCALATING THREATS [pic] Despite escalating threats from Iran's proxy terror organizations, Israel continues to stand strong, demonstrating resilience and dedication to safeguarding its citizens. This comes in the wake of a meeting between Iran's Supreme Leader, Ali Khamenei, and the head of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ), Ziyad al-Nakhalah. Although Khamenei suggested that Israel had become "passive," Israel's defensive "Operation Shield and Arrow" effectively neutralized key PIJ operatives and disrupted their attempts to weaponize civilian drones. Despite Iran's ongoing efforts to arm these operatives and besiege Israel with rockets, missiles, and drones, the Israeli forces remain undeterred, recently neutralizing a senior PIJ leader. As Iran plans to target Israelis overseas, Israel's resilience, commitment to peace, and dedication to protecting its citizens continue to shine brightly, demonstrating the strength that has carried it through 75 years of existence. â POVERTY HURTS [chan]( The struggling economy has left many Israelis in poverty, with countless families and individuals lacking basic necessities such as food and heating.
