FEATURING ARIEL GOLD – Israel’s latest election results are in and incumbent Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has fallen short of the number of seats he needs to maintain power. He would now need to form a coalition with the Arab-Islamist Ra’am Party in order to remain Prime Minister. Meanwhile Doctors Without Borders has put out an urgent call for Palestinians to receive more vaccines. Netanyahu marched swiftly to vaccinate Israeli citizens—ostensibly in an election-related bid to gain popularity—and only allowed a very small number to be given to Palestinian territories.
