Early Israeli coverage still tracked the government’s confrontation with the High Court and the funeral of Iran’s supreme leader. Attention then shifted to Hamas’s announcement that its Gaza administration would resign and transfer civil authority to a technocratic committee, a move Israeli officials repeatedly dismissed as symbolic. By midday, editors also covered the Bank of Israel’s third rate cut of the year, to 3.5 percent, and Netanyahu’s opposition to a possible F-35 sale to Turkey. The closing news cycle converged on the Knesset vote: a bill establishing a coalition-shaped inquiry into October 7 passed its first reading 59–0 after the opposition boycotted and Netanyahu was absent. Coverage emphasized that the coalition could control the commission’s appointments if the boycott continues.
