Riyadh Seeks To Replace Israel With Syria For EU Fiber-Optic Cable Route
Via Middle East Eye
Saudi Arabia wants to replace Israel with Syria as the transit country for a fiber-optic cable designed to connect the kingdom to Greece through the Mediterranean Sea, two regional officials familiar with the project told Middle East Eye.

Israel Reviews Wartime Hospital Readiness As Iran Retaliation Fears Mount
An Israeli television channel reported Thursday that the government's Health Ministry convened an emergency session with hospital directors and major health funds to assess readiness for a possible escalation with Iran.
According to i24 News, senior ministry officials attended the meeting and instructed hospital administrators to detail their level of preparedness in the event of a direct confrontation with Tehran. The extra caution also stems back to the June war with Iran, where hundreds of Iranian ballistic missiles and drones inflicted significant damage on Israeli cities and bases.
AFP/BBC: The Soroka hospital in Beersheba was reportedly hit by an Iranian strike during the brief June war, although Iran denies targeting it.
Iran has warned that if it gets attacked again, it will consider both the United States and Israel to be aggressors, since the two allies work in concert to undermine the Islamic Republic.
