For the first time ever, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban will be arriving in Israel for an official state visit.

Netanyahu reverses support of same-sex surrogacy The Knesset’s bill concerning pregnancies by way of surrogacies has seen quite the back and forth over the last few days. The text was widely criticized for excluding surrogacy rights to same-sex partners while at the same time, extending those rights to single women. On Sunday Prime Minister Netanyahu himself sided with the LGBTQ+ community and demanded the bill be rewritten but today, he has just voted against surrogacy rights for same-sex couples. 8.

Pregnant women shall wait no longer Step aside, because the next time you’re in a line in Israel, a pregnant woman may just cut in front of you because the Knesset just passed a new bill that will let them jump in line.

Israel accused of airstrikes in Syria
Late last night, a Syrian military base in Aleppo was pummeled by a round of airstrikes. Israel is widely believed to be behind the attack, though as per policy, the army has offered no comment on the matter.
