26.12.2025 โ‡ข The Afula and Beisan Double Operation Day
โŒจThe early morning headlines focused on stagnant truce negotiations, as editors highlighted Prime Minister Netanyahuโ€™s introduction of new conditions for the second phase of the Gaza agreement. By mid-morning, this diplomatic impasse was paired with reports of a deepening rift between Netanyahu and the Trump administration over the hostage file and the proposed 'technocratic government' for Gaza.
The editorial priority shifted abruptly at midday following a dual stabbing and ramming operation in Afula and Beisan, executed by a resident of Qabatiya. Outlets closely tracked the transition from the attack itself to the immediate Israeli military response, which involved a total siege and curfew on Qabatiya and the arrest of the perpetrator's family.
By the evening, media attention bifurcated between the intensifying military operations in the West Bank and Gazaโ€™s 'Yellow Line' and the diplomatic maneuvers at Mar-a-Lago. Editors concluded the day by documenting the rise in Gazan casualties to over 70,000 and the regional backlash against Israelโ€™s formal recognition of Somaliland.
