Trump Agrees to Provide Israel the Technology it Needs to Take Out Iran
the U.S. State Department approved an Israeli request to buy eight KC-46A Pegasus aerial tankers reports the Middle East Forum. This includes support equipment, spare parts, and training. The entire deal is valued at $2.4 billion. The first aircraft shipment is set to arrive in 2023. The deal “supports the foreign policy and national security of the United States by allowing Israel to provide a redundant capability to U.S. assets within the region, potentially freeing U.S. assets for use elsewhere during times of war,” the State Department’s Defense Security Cooperation Agency said in a statement. “Aerial refueling and strategic airlift are consistently cited as significant shortfalls for our allies. In addition, the sale improves Israel’s national security posture as a key U.S. ally.”

Final election results leave Netanyahu short of parliamentary majority
With the Israeli election results finalized on Thursday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has again fallen short of a parliamentary majority, extending the country’s year-old political deadlock. Netanyahu had been looking for a decisive victory in Monday’s vote, and initial exit polls had indicated his Likud party and smaller religious and Zionist allies had captured 60 seats, just one short of a majority required to form a new government.

Alleged Israeli airstrikes target Hezbollah site, Syrian airport
The air strikes come just days after the IDF thwarted an attempted sniper attack along the Syria-Israel border in the Golan Heights. Syrian air defenses responded to attacks Israel allegedly launched in southern and central Syria on Wednesday night, according to Syrian state news agency SANA. The airstrikes in Homs targeted the Dabaa Military Airfield and a site belonging to the Lebanese Hezbollah terrorist group, Step News Agency reported. The attacks were launched by Israel from over Lebanese airspace and the Golan Heights and targeted Homs and the Quneitra region of southwestern Syria, according to SANA. Syrian air defenses successfully prevented any of the rockets from hitting their targets, the Syrian military told SANA.

Deadly clashes erupt in Syria’s Idlib hours into ceasefire deal
Deadly clashes erupted in southern Idlib on Friday, hours into a ceasefire deal between Russia and Turkey aimed at ending the fighting in the last rebel-held enclave in Syria. A war monitor and a rebel source said the fighting broke out in the Jabal al-Zawiya region between Syrian government forces and jihadist insurgents of the Turkistan Islamic Party. Fifteen people were killed, the Syrian Observatory said. Residents and opposition forces said the violence had abated elsewhere. But the clashes underlined the fragility of Thursday’s deal between Russia, which backs President Bashar al-Assad’s forces, and Turkey. Ankara supports rebel fighters but has less sway over hardline jihadists who control large parts of Idlib.

Turkey’s Erdogan warns Europe to expect ‘millions’ of migrants after easing border restrictions
Fresh clashes between migrants & police at Turkey-Greece border
Erdogan, whose country hosts more than 3.5 million Syrian refugees, announced last week Turkey was departing from its previous policy of containing refugees and migrants. He has demanded more support from Europe in dealing with the fallout from the Syrian war to its south. “It’s done, the gates are open,” he said Monday, adding that Western leaders were calling him to reverse the border opening. “You will have your share of this burden now.” Soon, “the number of people going to the border will be expressed in millions,” he added. The Turkish leader says his country is unable to cope with a new wave of Syrian refugees, the BBC reported.

A double suicide attack shook the Tunisian capital on Friday as assailants wounded six people including police guarding the US embassy, authorities said.

Two assailants died in the attack, the first to hit the capital since June 2019, according to officials. Police said one attacker tried to enter the diplomatic mission but was prevented by police guarding it. A policeman who witnessed the attack said a suicide bomber who was travelling on a motorcycle was also killed. Body parts were seen strewn on the ground. “The operation led to the death of two assailants, wounded five police and lightly injured a civilian,” the interior ministry said in a statement without giving further details.

Central banks are giving hopes with their potential stimulus,” said Vasu Menon, senior investment strategist at OCBC Bank Wealth Management.

WHO: Contaminated Cash May Help Spread Coronavirus- (The Push for a Cashless Society)
Dirty cash may fuel the spread of the novel Chinese coronavirus, which is currently more than three times deadlier than the seasonal flu, the World Health Organization (WHO), a United Nations agency, warned this week. Banknotes may be spreading the new coronavirus so people should try to use contactless payments instead, the World Health Organization has said. Customers should wash their hands after touching banknotes because infectious [coronavirus] may cling to the surface for a number of days, the UN agency said on Monday night. To prevent the spread of the disease, people should use contactless technology where possible, a spokesperson added.

WHO: CORONAVIRUS IS MORE DEADLY THAN ORIGINALLY THOUGHT
Cases of infection pass 100,000, and W.H.O. calls for wider action
The World Health Organization has announced that the death rate for those who contract the coronavirus is higher than originally thought. Even though getting the coronavirus only comes with a 3.4% mortality rate, the virus’ rapid spread could bump that number even higher. Originally, WHO assumed the death rate from those who get infected with the COVID-19 virus, was only 2%. That has been revised upwards to 3.4%. “Globally, about 3.4% of reported COVID-19 cases have died,” WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said during a press briefing at the agency’s headquarters in Geneva. In comparison, the seasonal flu generally kills far fewer than 1% of those infected, he said. Again, it’s not like this is a huge jump considering the number of people who have been infected, yet as this virus lingers, it has the unintended consequence of killing more than previously thought.
