"Yawmi" Podcast | 9 Days to the Elections... and the Settlers Run Wild in the West Bank

In a new episode of the "Yawmi" podcast, journalist Mahmoud Majadla discusses the Israeli election scene nine days before the vote, amid escalating divisions within Benjamin Netanyahu's camp over how to replace him, contacts with the US administration, and the presence of the security file and Iran. The episode also focuses on an attack by settlers on a European diplomatic delegation in the village of Taybeh east of Ramallah, and the failure of Israeli forces to arrive to assist them, within a broader context of escalating settler attacks during the olive season.

In a new episode of the "Yawmi" podcast on the "Arab 48" website, journalist Mahmoud Majadla examines the Israeli electoral landscape nine days before the vote. The episode discusses the growing rift within Benjamin Netanyahu's camp over how to replace him if a clear majority is not achieved, alongside contacts with the US administration and the prominence of the security file and Iran at the heart of the campaign, while polls still leave the outcome uncertain. The episode also focuses on an attack by settlers on a European diplomatic delegation in the village of Taybeh east of Ramallah, and the failure of Israeli forces to arrive to assist them despite reports, before placing the incident in the broader context of escalating settler attacks during the olive season, amid contradictions in the official Israeli narrative and evidence documenting the participation of occupation forces or their provision of protection to settlers in most of these attacks.
