AGP Executive Report
Last update: 3 hours agoOctober 7 and the Election: Israelis marked three years since the Hamas-led attack, as bereaved families and protesters renewed calls for an independent inquiry into security failures. The October 27 vote is already being shaped by the attack: a poll found it will weigh heavily for 62% of voters, while Netanyahu warned of a possible Hamas attack before election day. Gaza: Israeli strikes killed at least three Palestinians on the anniversary, including a teenager and a rescue worker, according to reports from Gaza. Major fighting has eased under a ceasefire, but strikes continue and most of Gaza’s population still needs shelter and basic aid, the UN says. Palestinian Elections: Palestinian officials say Israel barred election monitors from entering Gaza and east Jerusalem ahead of a planned November 28 vote, raising fresh uncertainty about whether it can proceed. West Bank: New military orders restrict Palestinian farmers’ access to about 90,000 dunams of olive land near Israeli settlements, limiting entry during a crucial harvest. Economy: Israel’s stock market has surged since October 2023, though the Bank of Israel estimates the war cost the economy about 177 billion shekels in lost output through 2025.
