Gaza, postwar diplomacy, judicial reform Main issues in Israel's general election

Under the Netanyahu administration, considered the most right-leaning in Israel's history, the pros and cons of the military operation in Gaza and judicial reform have become key issues in the general election. The dysfunction of Hamas's security policy against surprise attacks, its isolation in the international community, and the division within the country over restraints on judicial authority have been highlighted.

Nighttime curfew in Paris and other areas; security measures in limited areas - France

A nighttime curfew was imposed in some major cities in France, including Paris, on the 19th. The aim is to put a stop to the deterioration in public order, which has seen repeated arson and looting by mobs since the large-scale demonstration on the 17th. Outside of Paris, Lyon, Nice, Bordeaux, and Lille have banned nighttime curfews in their central areas, with Lille, Nice, and Bordeaux restricting restrictions to minors, and restrictions in those three cities continuing after the 20th. The only prohibited areas in Paris are around Les Halles and Place de la République. District Mayor Ariel Bayle called for the military to be called in, but Prime Minister Le Cornu urged a calm response, saying the situation was concentrated in the city center.

With Israel's general election just a week away, Prime Minister Netanyahu's responsibility for responding to the attack on Gaza has become a point of contention, and Yashar's leader, Eisenkot, has vowed to destroy Hamas's military wing. Opinion polls show Yashar in the lead with 21.5 seats, followed by Likud with 19 seats, with neither camp reaching a majority, and post-election coalition building will be key.
