DAILY BRIEFING DEC. 2: DAY 423 – HAREDI HOUSING MINISTER STIRS POT WITH GAZA
BORDER VISIT


POLITICAL CORRESPONDENT TAL SCHNEIDER DISCUSSES HOSTAGE TALKS AND GOLDKNOPF’S
VISIT TO THE GAZA BORDER; WRITER DIANA BLETTER REPORTS ON DEVASTATED NORTHERN
TOWNS

Welcome to The Times of Israel’s Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on
what’s happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world.

Political correspondent Tal Schneider and health editor Diana Bletter join host
Jessica Steinberg for today’s episode.

Schneider discusses the latest in the hostage talks, with Prime Minister
Benjamin Netanyahu calling the family of Edan Alexander after a video of the
US-Israeli soldier was released by Hamas. The premier also updated the cabinet
on negotiations.

She also looks at the visit of Housing and Construction Minister Yitzchak
Goldknopf to the Gaza border to inspect sites in the Strip where he says he
wants to reestablish Jewish settlements, and discusses why an ultra-Orthodox
Knesset minister would involve himself in that political storm.

Bletter speaks about her visits in the last week to several northern communities
and cities that were devastated by the 14 months of war with Hezbollah in
Lebanon, and what residents — those who were returning to their homes after a
long displacement as well as those who had stayed put in the north — have to say
about the ceasefire.

Bletter also looks at Tel Aviv University research that could be promising in
terms of treatment for aspects of a certain type of autism.

For news updates, please check out The Times of Israel’s ongoing live blog.


DISCUSSED ARTICLES INCLUDE:

Netanyahu convenes discussion on hostage negotiations with new ceasefire push

Top Likud minister said to support ousting Netanyahu in talk with hostage
relatives

Touring Gaza border region, senior Haredi minister calls to resettle the Strip

In northern border town of Shlomi, a wary trickle home in the shadow of a
fragile ceasefire

Northern evacuees question whether a ceasefire deal is enough to see them home

Israeli study finds gene mutation that may cause some autism, possibly enabling
treatment

Bridging the US-Israel divide

While the heart of The Times of Israel’s work takes place in Israel, so many of
Jerusalem’s actions are influenced by those in Washington’s halls of power. 

As ToI’s US bureau chief, I work to gain access to decision-makers in the United
States government so our readers can understand the US-Israel relationship
beyond the platitudes evident in public statements. 

I'm proud of our ability to inform without sensationalizing, our dedication to
be fast while ensuring accuracy, and our determination to present Israel's
entire, complex story. 

Your support through The Times of Israel Community helps us continue to keep
readers around the world properly informed about the critical Israel-US
relationship. Do you appreciate our news coverage? If so, please join the ToI
Community today.

-  Jacob Magid, The Times of Israel's US bureau chief
