Israeli airlines, including El Al and Arkia, are ready to evacuate their fleets globally to avoid missile threats, according to Transportation Minister Miri Regev.

The project, presented by MKs from both the coalition and opposition, aims to “open the Israeli transportation market to competition and allow the operation of ride-sharing apps."

A regional rail project that could generate billions has been stalled by a narrow Likud power struggle.

Netanyahu and Elon Musk discussed advancing AI and autonomous vehicle cooperation in a call confirmed by the PMO, days after Musk drew criticism for a viral X post about Jews and whiteness.

Ben Gurion Airport led the resurgence, recording roughly 134,000 takeoffs and landings, up 32 percent from the previous year.

Wizz Air plans to launch Eilat–Budapest flights in March as part of an agreement to establish two bases in Israel, at Ben-Gurion and Ramon airports, pending regulatory approval.

"An initial inspection conducted indicates that the ship was not in distress but merely lost contact," the Transportation Ministry said in a statement.

After a meeting with Wizz Air's CEO, the company announced it will launch a base in Israel in April. Regev welcomed the move, stressing commitment to competition against high prices.

“It will not happen under any circumstances, even if a budget is not passed,” Regev’s office said, insisting she will block any additional burden on riders without parallel service improvements.

Váradi told the transportation minister during their meeting that “In the next three years, we will add 4,000 jobs in Israel, and about 500 employees will be hired directly by Wizz.”
