The issue came as a result of either bureaucratic misunderstanding, technical confusion, or Riyadh's frustration with Israel.
Saudi Arabia will permit Israeli flights to the UAE to fly over its airspace, Israeli media reported today (Monday, Nov 30).
Issues arose when Saudi Arabia unexpectedly blocked Israeli flights to Dubai above its airspace following the normalization agreement with the Gulf kingdom.
According to reports, the American administration contacted the Saudis to resolve the issue and that it may have arisen as a result of bureaucratic misunderstanding or Riyadh's frustration over Israel's possible role in the assassination of Iranian nuclear scientist Mohsen Fakhrizadeh last Friday.

This weekend marks the 19th of Kislev- known throughout the Jewish world as 'yat Kislev' – a worldwide celebration of Chasidus. Approximately 220 years ago, the first Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Shneur Zalman of Liadi was imprisoned on trumped-up accusations of treason- fomented by anti-Chasidus forces within the Jewish community. His fifty-three days spent in a harsh Belarus jail under severe interrogation was viewed as a heavenly referendum about the movement of chasidus; perhaps the world was not yet ready for this revolution and perhaps this architect of Chasidus should remain behind bars, unable to disseminate his bold ideology. His liberation on the 19th of Kislev was regarded as a heavenly confirmation that Chasidus would persevere and would renew the sunken Jewish spir...

JERUSALEM (VINnews) — Rabbi Avraham Finzel, the principal of Chochmas Shlomo, the largest Talmud Torah in Jerusalem, came to the Knesset’s State Control committee and testified regarding the ‘medical aspect’ of opening the Chareidi educational system.
Finzel runs a Talmud Torah for 1500 students and a girls school for 1000 girls. The schools are “exempt institutions”, meaning that they are run almost without educational ministry supervision. Finzel said that the school for boys opened from 1st to 8th grades at the beginning of Marcheshvan, about six weeks ago, but despite this there has been practically no infection in the 3-13 age group. Finzel stressed that although opening schools was illegal, the Talmud Torah maintained capsules, strict hygiene and ...
