    The Israeli High Court rules that four Palestinian families in Sheikh Jarrah will remain in their homes, pending future legal proceedings in the Justice Ministry to determine who owns the land This is an unprecedented development in Sheikh Jarrah eviction cases, lawyer says >>

    The Israeli cabinet just approved two critical proposals: an NIS 30 billion ($9.3 billion) plan to support Arab communities in health, education, and many other fields over 5 years. The second is an NIS 2.4 billion ($748 million) proposal to fight the crime wave in Arab cities.

    The Palestinian Red Crescent reports 163 wounded tonight across Jerusalem in clashes with Israeli security forces. 83 were hospitalized, mostly for injuries with rubber-coated steel bullets, the Red Crescent says.

    I imagine that the brazen lawlessness by some Jewish extremists last night as they attacked Arabs within the Green Line must be connected to the near-total impunity they have enjoyed beyond it in years of attacks by extreme settlers on Palestinian towns and people.

    Some personal news: after two meaningful years at @TimesofIsrael, I’ll now be writing for The Wall Street Journal in Jerusalem, covering Israel and the Palestinian Territories. Very excited to work with @michaelkamon, @Shayndi, @tggrove, @DovLieber, @FatiabdulFatima and others.

    For years, Palestinian citizens of Israel have demanded serious government action to uproot organized crime from their cities. But gangs were left to arm themselves and grow stronger. The ethnically motivated violence in Lod and Ramle builds on that reality.

    A troubling fact that I did not know until this afternoon: the Iron Dome defense system treats Bedouin unrecognized townships as "open areas," meaning they are far more vulnerable to rocket fire. At least 80-90,000 Bedouins live in unrecognized villages in southern Israel.

    7 months after PA President Abbas indefinitely delayed Palestinian elections, the Palestinian leader inaugurates brand new Central Elections Committee HQ. The European Union invested 6 million euros in the project. The Palestinians have not held a national vote in 15 years.

    For those closely following the Sheikh Jarrah eviction cases, Israel's High Court put out a new decision today: -- All sides must say whether they agree to the compromise by November 2. -- So, what is the compromise for now, according to the court? It's a little complicated >>>

    The Israeli military body that manages Palestinian affairs, COGAT, publishes a survey on their mobile app for Palestinians asking them for feedback on checkpoints. "Are you satisfied with waiting time at the crossing? Have they ever hurt your feelings?" form.jotform.com/213122621061438

    What can be done about the 130,000 Arabs living in homes in central Israel that can't be connected to electricity? This is what the fight over the Electricity Law is about. Hebrew media endlessly covers the coalition bickering. But the real policy issue is poorly understood >>

    A day later, the vaccines have still not yet been approved to enter Gaza. Israel's National Security Council, a body inside the Prime Minister's Office, is "examining the issue," per security official. Knesset MKs debated the issue today, but the decision rests with the NSC

    IDF spokesperson says that @Issaamro will not be sentenced today, as was initially scheduled. The delay follows an online campaign on behalf of the Hebron-based Palestinian activist.

    Ayman Odeh and Mansour Abbas go on Arabic-language radio to tell Palestinian citizens of Israel to stay home so as not to be attacked, and call for Palestinian youth not to attack people or property.
