Eye on the Enemy: Netanyahu calls for the development of gas supply
Channel 7
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, received Wednesday evening the report of the committee - chaired by Energy and Water Resources Ministry Director-General Shaul Tzemach - that evaluated natural gas policy.
Prime Minister Netanyahu said "Gas is an energy source that gives "Israel" a new economic horizon. It could give us both economic strength and economic independence. I think that it is important that we develop it wisely and responsibly. I intend to study the report and submit decisions that will give us future prosperity."
The Prime Minister also said: "What the State of "Israel" needs now is a responsible budget. I remind you that in the face of global turbulence, we succeeded in lowering the unemployment rate. Today it stands at 7.2%; it was higher. Today, it is higher in the US and in Europe. There it is 11% and
there are countries in which 50% of young people are unemployed. I am not prepared for that to happen here. So that it does not happen here, the State
of "Israel" needs a responsible budget."

"Israeli" Security Forces preparing for war: a drill in Tel aviv
Army Radio
Home front preparations for a possible war with Iran are still going on. After rehabilitating more than 60 parking lots around Tel Aviv for emergencies, trainings took place on Thursday on large-scale evacuation in one of the major places in the city - the offices and clinics buildings amid Weizmann Center.
The Weizmann complex is located near "Israel's" second-largest hospital, Sourasky Medical Center, and close to the Defense Ministry's Kirya headquarters, the Ayalon Highway and a train station. At 9 a.m. the stimulation of the disaster will begin at the complex. The fire department will cooperate with the Magen David Adom, the police and the Tel Aviv municipality to train together on the fire and evacuation.
The Colonel "Doron Natanal", the training officer and spokesman of Tel Aviv - Jaffa station, said "the maneuver simulates a large fire breakout on the 11th floor of the tower and spread to the upper floors". He added: "and we will train on the full protection of the services committee and support teams from different stations and other emergency arms will participate."
The preparations for the maneuver are not easy in general. Different departments have been preparing for it since weeks. Avitar Golan, the security director for the Center Weitzman, who followed-up the preparations said, "The aim of the maneuver was to basically test the readiness of the security apparatus and the tower systems, the readiness of security coordinators on all aspects, the participation of rescue forces headed by firefighters and their response to real accidents".
It seems that the center of Tel Aviv turned into a war zone. No one knows how it will look like, yet no one wants to be unready.
