Eyal Siso, the CEO of the Population and Immigration Authority, emphasized the positive impact of this initiative on the housing sector, highlighting Israel's dedication to growth and global cooperation. This collaboration not only signifies Israel's commitment to excellence but also embodies its ethos of unity in diversity. As Israel continues to honor its rich history while eagerly shaping its future, this venture stands as a testament to its global outreach and spirit of camaraderie, marking a new chapter of unity. |

ISRAEL'S INNOVATIVE STEP TOWARDS FINANCIAL STABILITY |
|
| In a significant move towards financial stability and responsible governance, Israel is addressing the three-decade-long issue of the Palestinian Authority's (P.A.) electricity debt in Judea, Samaria, and eastern Jerusalem. The Israeli Finance Ministry has devised an innovative plan to deduct monthly amounts from the funds collected on behalf of the P.A., channeling them directly to the Israel Electric Company (IEC) to settle the outstanding debt of two billion shekels ($526.4 million). This decision, sanctioned under a law enacted post the Oslo Accords, showcases Israel's commitment to financial fairness and its proactive approach to resolving critical issues. The initiative not only aims to strengthen the IEC's ability to provide essential services but also stands as a testament to Israel's unwavering dedication to fostering cooperation and financial stability in the region. |
