According to the Israeli military, one of its F-16 fighter jet has crashed amid Syrian anti-aircraft fire after an offensive against Iranian targets in Syria.
The two pilots parachuted to safety before the crash in northern Israel. It is believed to be the first time Israel has lost a jet in the Syrian conflict.
Red alert sirens sounded in areas of northern Israel and the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights due to Syrian anti-aircraft fire.
Residents reported hearing a number of explosions and heavy aerial activity in the area near Israel's borders with Jordan and Syria.
Syria accused Israel of "aggression", as Israel then launched more strikes.
In a statement, the Israeli military said "a combat helicopter successfully intercepted an Iranian UAV [unmanned aerial vehicle] that was launched from Syria and infiltrated Israel".
It said the drone was identified quickly and was "under surveillance until the interception".
The drone went down on Israeli territory and was "in our possession", IDF spokesperson Brig Gen Ronen Manelis said.
The military said that in response the IDF "targeted Iranian targets in Syria". It said the mission deep inside Syrian territory was successfully completed.
After coming under Syrian anti-aircraft fire, the F-16's two crew ejected and were later taken to hospital. One of them was "severely injured as a result of an emergency evacuation", the IDF said.
It was not clear whether the F-16 jet was hit by anti-aircraft fire or went down near Harduf for other reasons.
Syrian state media quoted a military source as saying that the country's air defenses opened fire in response to an Israeli act of "aggression" against a military base on February 10, hitting "more than one plane".
Meanwhile, Iran, Russia and the Hezbollah movement in Lebanon – key allies of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad – dismissed as "lies" Israeli claims that an Iranian drone had entered Israeli airspace, news wires report.
Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says he expects EU countries to follow the United States in recognizing Jerusalem as his country's capital.
Benjamin Netanyahu is in Brussels for talks – the first time an Israeli prime minister has visited the city in more than 20 years.
However, the EU's foreign policy chief, Federica Mogherini says the bloc's stance on the matter is unchanged.
President Donald Trump's move has left the US isolated on a highly sensitive issue between Israel and the Palestinians.
Arriving in Brussels, PM Benjamin Netanyahu again welcomed the announcement, saying Jerusalem had been the capital of the Jewish people for 3,000 years and President Trump had put "facts squarely on the table".
As well as recognizing Jerusalem, President Donald Trump also said he was directing the state department to begin preparations to move the US embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.
However, Federica Mogherini said the EU would continue to recognize the "international consensus" on Jerusalem.
Federica Mogherini also condemned "all attacks on Jews everywhere in the world".
Before heading to Brussels, Benjamin Netanyahu met France's President Emmanuel Macron in Paris, who urged him to freeze settlement building and to re-engage with Palestinians.
Israel has always regarded Jerusalem as its capital, while the Palestinians claim East Jerusalem – occupied by Israel in the 1967 war – as the capital of a future Palestinian state.
Israeli sovereignty over Jerusalem has never been recognized internationally, and all countries maintain their embassies in Tel Aviv.
President Trump's announcement drew worldwide condemnation and sparked fierce protests which again flared on December 10.
In Lebanon's capital, Beirut, police used tear gas to stop demonstrators reaching the US embassy, while in Jerusalem itself, a Palestinian was arrested after stabbing and seriously wounding an Israeli security guard.
A burning object was thrown at a synagogue in the Swedish city of Gothenburg on December 9 in what police said was a failed arson attempt.
President Donald Trump's decision to recognize Jerusalem as Israel's capital has been condemned by world's leaders.
Saudi Arabia called it "unjustified and irresponsible", while France and the UK said they did not support the decision.
However, Israel's PM Benjamin Netanyahu hailed it as "a historic day".
Donald Trump's move reversed decades of US policy. The fate of Jerusalem is one of the thorniest issues between Israel and the Palestinians.
Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas denounced President Trump's move as "deplorable".
Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza Strip are expected to hold a day of strikes and protests on December 7.
The UN Security Council is to discuss the issue on December 8 after eight of the 15 member nations called for an emergency session. The Arab League is to meet on December 9.
President Trump said on December 6 he had "judged this course of action to be in the best interests of the United States of America, and the pursuit of peace between Israel and the Palestinians".
He said he was directing the state department to begin preparations to move the US embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.
Despite warnings of regional unrest over any such move, the decision fulfils a campaign promise and appeals to Donald Trump's right-wing base.
Recognizing Jerusalem as Israel's capital was "nothing more or less than a recognition of reality", the president added.
Donald Trump said the US still supported a two-state solution to the longstanding Israeli-Palestinian conflict, if approved by both sides, which would essentially see the creation of an independent Palestinian state living alongside Israel.
On December 6, Benjamin Netanyahu went further, saying President Trump "bound himself forever with the history of the capital", and predicting that many other countries would follow Washington's example.
The Republican Jewish Coalition thanked President Trump in a New York Times add.
The leader of Hamas, the Islamist movement that runs the Gaza Strip, called for a new intifada, or uprising, saying it was the only way to "confront" Israel and the US.
President Mahmoud Abbas called President Trump's announcement "deplorable" and said Jerusalem was the "eternal capital of the state of Palestine".
Fatah, Mahmoud Abbas's party, said it would push for a UN resolution requesting that Washington "rescind its decision" and disqualifying the US as a co-sponsor of the peace process.
The Arab and the wider Muslim world – including a number of US allies – condemned Donald Trump's announcement.
Demonstrations have already taken place outside the US consulate in Istanbul, Turkey.
Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak called on Muslims everywhere to "make it clear that we strongly oppose" the US move.
UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres said it was "a moment of great anxiety". He said "there is no alternative to the two-state solution".
German Chancellor Angela Merkel and French President Emmanuel Macron both said their countries did not support the move while EU chief diplomat Federica Mogherini voiced "serious concern".
Donald Trump's announcement puts the US at odds with the rest of the international community's view on Jerusalem's status.
East Jerusalem, which includes the Old City, was annexed by Israel after the Six Day War of 1967, but before now it has not been internationally recognized as part of Israel.
Elor Azaria, the Israeli soldier who killed a wounded Palestinian attacker in a high-profile case that split opinion across Israel, has been jailed for 18 months.
He was found guilty of manslaughter for shooting dead 21-year-old Abdul Fatah al-Sharif in Hebron, in the occupied West Bank, in March 2016.
Elor Azaria had told a colleague that Abdul Fatah al-Sharif, who had stabbed another soldier, "deserved to die".
The offence carries a sentence of up to 20 years, though prosecutors had called for Elor Azaria to be jailed for between 3 and 5 years.
Elor Azaria was also ordered demoted from his rank of sergeant.
Judge Maya Heller said his crime was mitigated by the fact that it was his first conviction, that it had occurred in an active military scene and that there had been no clear orders as to how he was supposed to act.
She noted that Elor Azaria had not displayed any remorse for what he had done.
A spokesman for the Palestinian Authority criticized the sentence as lenient, calling it a "green light to the occupation army to continue its crimes", AFP reported.
Israel's PM Benjamin Netanyahu has previously said he would support any decision to pardon Elor Azaria.
The killing received widespread coverage after footage of the incident, filmed on a mobile phone, was shown on Israeli news programs.
The footage showed Elor Azaria cocking his gun and firing at the head of Abdul Fatah al-Sharif, who was lying apparently incapacitated on the ground after being shot and wounded following the stabbing attack.
The court which convicted Elor Azaria dismissed his claim that he had acted out of fear that Abdul Fatah al-Sharif might have been wearing an explosive vest.
Following the incident military chiefs and PM Benjamin Netanyahu came under fire from right-wing sections of society – including members cabinet – for criticizing Elor Azaria's actions.
Benjamin Netanyahu later phoned Elor Azaria's father to offer reassurance.
The Conference for Peace in the Middle East, with focus on starting peace talks between Israel and the Palestinians, is being held in Paris.
Over 70 countries and international organizations are expected to reaffirm support for a two-state solution to the decades-old conflict.
The conference is hosted by Jean-Marc Ayrault and French President François Hollande is expected to speak at.
Palestinians have welcomed the meeting but Israel – which is not attending – says the conference is loaded against it.
The last round of direct peace talks collapsed amid acrimony in April 2014.
Israel and the Palestinians have been invited to hear the conclusions of the meeting, but not to participate in the summit itself.
The conference comes at a time of tension between Israel and the international community after the UN passed a resolution in December 2016 denouncing Israel's settlement activity on occupied land.
Israel accused the US and the Obama administration of engineering the motion and enabling it to pass by not using its power of veto in the UN Security Council.
The White House denied colluding to get the resolution passed.
Reports say a draft statement for the meeting calls on Israel and the Palestinians "to officially restate their commitment to the two-state solution" and avoid taking "unilateral steps that prejudge the outcome of final status negotiations".
A "two-state solution" of a Palestinian country alongside Israel has long been endorsed by both sides but there are sharply divergent visions as to the type of state which should emerge.
Israel rejects international involvement in the peace process, saying a settlement can only come through direct talks.
PM Benjamin Netanyahu called the Paris meeting "a rigged conference" which Israel would not be bound by.
He said on January 12: "[It's] rigged by the Palestinians with French auspices to adopt additional anti-Israel stances.
Secretary of State John Kerry would be at the meeting to ensure "whatever happens in this conference is constructive and balanced".
Spokesman Mark Toner said the US did not "want to see anything that attempts to impose a solution on Israel".
Israel is concerned that the conference might set the terms for a final agreement and seek to get it adopted at the UN, a move it feels would undermine future negotiations.
Despite years of on-off peace talks, major differences still separate Israel and the Palestinians.
Palestinians fiercely object to Israeli settlement activity in the occupied West Bank and East Jerusalem, territory it wants for a future state.
The settlements, home to about 600,000 Israelis, are considered illegal under international law, though Israel disputes this.
Israel says Palestinian incitement and violence, and a refusal to accept Israel as a Jewish state, are key obstacles to peace.
Other core issues at the Paris conference will include the future status of Jerusalem and the fate of millions of Palestinian refugees.
Are you bored of heading on trips where you do nothing but sit around or see the sights? It can all get a little dull after awhile, and you start to yearn for something more. It might be time for you to start looking for trips that offer you some genuine thrills and excitement. Here some ideas for great destinations to consider.
Patagonia, in the south of Argentina, is one of those places that every thrill-seeker has to visit once. And probably more than once. The natural landscape is your playground, and you can spend weeks exploring it and still not appreciate everything it has to offer. Skiing, mountain climbing and exploring glaciers can all be done here. And that's just the tip of the iceberg. It's a place that is truly unique, so see it for yourself, and embrace everything there is to do.
Victoria Falls is one of the most impressive waterfalls in the world. But you don't need to stand by and gaze at it. There are plenty of thrilling things that you can spend your time doing in the area too. Zip lines can be used, or you could go bungee jumping in this magnificent setting. Rafting is a lot of fun as well. Once you've done all that, you can explore nature and see the lions and elephants that are located in this part of Zimbabwe.
Israel might not be the first place that comes to mind when you think of taking a thrill-seeking trip. But it actually has a lot to offer that might surprise you. For example, the water sports that you will find in coastal cities, such as Tel Aviv, are extraordinary. There are also vast landscapes that are great for intrepid explorers. For example, the Galilee and Masada are particularly popular. If you need to come back down to Earth after all that, you can float in the Dead Sea.
Mexico has a lot to offer explorers and thrill-seekers. You can explore the rugged landscape of Cozumel if you want to go scuba diving or hiking. If you do, be aware of the local air ambulance services. That way, you can get help quickly if you need it. In other parts of Mexico, you can try white-water rafting or explore the Copper Canyon. It's a canyon made up of lots of smaller ones. To get an idea of its scale, the canyon is about seven times bigger than the Grand Canyon.
Iceland has a very harsh and unforgiving landscape. Many travellers go there unprepared and end up having to get rescued. So, it's important to be prepared. But as long as you are, there is plenty to explore and challenge yourself with here. There are fjords, glaciers, volcanoes and geysers that pump out steam. The island often feels like one big assault course that throws one challenge after another at you. But taking it on and testing yourself against it can be a lot of fun.
Shimon Peres' funeral is under way in Jerusalem before a large number of foreign dignitaries, including Barack Obama and Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas.
The former Israeli president died on September 28 at the age of 93.
PM Benjamin Netanyahu described Shimon Peres, one of Israel's founding fathers, as "a great man of the world", in his funeral eulogy.
A security crackdown ahead of the funeral ceremony has led to the "preventative arrests" of several people.
Mahmoud Abbas led a delegation of senior Palestinian officials in his first visit to Israel since 2010.
As a negotiator for the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO), Mahmoud Abbas was one of the people who signed the Oslo peace accords in 1993, for which Shimon Peres won a Nobel Peace Prize the year after, along with Yasser Arafat and Yitzhak Rabin.
A senior Palestinian official told the Associated Press that Mahmoud Abbas wanted to "send a strong message to Israeli society that the Palestinians are for peace, and appreciate the efforts of peaceful men like Shimon Peres".
A spokesman for Hamas, the more hard-line Palestinian group which runs Gaza, called on Mahmoud Abbas to "retract his decision to participate in the funeral of the criminal Shimon Peres".
Shimon Peres' reputation in the region is complicated by the 1996 shelling of Qana in southern Lebanon that killed more than 100 people who were sheltering in a UN compound.
It happened when, as prime minister, Shimon Peres ordered an offensive against a wave of rocket fire by the militant Hezbollah movement.
He later said it was a "bitter surprise" to find that several hundred people were in the camp at the time.
Shimon Peres' coffin was earlier escorted by a military honor guard from the parliament building in Jerusalem to Mount Herzl, Israel's national cemetery, where he will be laid to rest alongside many of the country's former leaders.
Jordan and Egypt – the only two Arab countries to have signed peace deals with Israel – have both sent official representatives to the ceremony.
President Barack Obama is due to speak at the ceremony, along with Shimon Peres' three children.
Shimon Peres' body has been lying in state outside parliament in Jerusalem.
Israeli police say 8,000 officers have been deployed for the security operation as thousands of people are expected to attend the funeral.
Police chief Roni Alsheikh said it was "an operation on an unprecedented scale".
The funeral is expected to be the largest such event in Israel since the funeral of PM Yitzhak Rabin, who was assassinated by a Jewish nationalist in 1995.
Shimon Peres suffered a stroke two weeks ago and died in a hospital near Tel Aviv.
Former Israeli President Shimon Peres has died at the age of 93.
He served twice as Israel's prime minister and once as president.
Shimon Peres suffered a stroke two weeks ago. His condition had improved before a sudden deterioration on September 27.
His son, Chemi Peres, led tributes to "one of the founding fathers of the state of Israel" who "worked tirelessly" for it.
World figures are expected to attend Shimon Peres' funeral in Jerusalem on September 29, including President Barack Obama, Prince Charles and Pope Francis.
Shimon Peres was one of the last of a generation of Israeli politicians present at Israel's birth in 1948.
Shimon Peres once said the Palestinians were Israel's "closest neighbors" and might become its "closest friends".
He died in a hospital near Tel Aviv early on September 28, with his family at his bedside.
Shimon Peres had been in the intensive care unit of the Sheba Medical Centre after suffering a major stroke on September 13.
The funeral will be held at Mount Herzl, Israel's national cemetery in Jerusalem.
Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton and President Bill Clinton, UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon and UK PM Theresa May have all confirmed they will attend, Israel's Foreign Ministry said.
Israel ex-President Shimon Peres has been hospitalized after suffering a stroke.
The 93-year-old has been rushed to a hospital outside Tel Aviv. He has been sedated and is breathing with the help of a respirator, his office said. He is now expected to undergo a CT scan.
Shimon Peres had been described as conscious and stable when he arrived at the Sheba Medical Center in Tel Hashomer.
In January, the former president underwent successful minor surgery at the same hospital after suffering a small heart attack.
Shimon Peres has held almost every major political office since Israel was founded in 1948, and was the architect of Israel's secret nuclear program.
Despite his age, Shimon Peres has maintained an active public schedule, mostly through his non-governmental Peres Centre for Peace, which promotes closer ties between Israel and the Palestinians.
Israel has accused Turkey of buying oil from ISIS, thereby funding the militants' activities.
Speaking in Athens, Israel's Defense Minister Moshe Yaalon said ISIS had "enjoyed Turkish money for oil for a very, very long period of time".
Turkey denies permitting ISIS smuggling, and the US recently rejected Russian allegations that Turkish government officials were in league the militants.
ISIS has captured swathes of Syria and Iraq, including operational oil fields.
Moshe Yaalon told reporters after a meeting with his Greek counterpart: "It's up to Turkey, the Turkish government, the Turkish leadership, to decide whether they want to be part of any kind of cooperation to fight terrorism.
Moshe Yaalon also alleged that Turkey had "permitted jihadists to move from Europe to Syria and Iraq and back".
US state department officials last month rejected Russian allegations of Turkish government involvement but a state department spokesman said IS oil was being smuggled into Turkey via middlemen.
Efforts by Israel and Turkey to repair damaged ties already hit a setback this month over demands for compensation for the deaths of 10 Turkish activists on an aid ship in 2010.
The Israeli navy had raided a flotilla of ships trying to break Israel's blockade of Gaza.
Senior Israeli and Turkish officials met in December to try to repair relations, raising hopes of progress in negotiations to import Israeli natural gas.
Two Palestinian attackers have been shot dead by Israeli forces after attempting to stab them at a checkpoint in the occupied West Bank, the military says.
The incident was reported at the Bekaot checkpoint in the northern West Bank. The soldiers were not injured.
The two men, aged 23 and 38, were reported to be from villages south of Jenin.
Tension between Palestinians and Israelis has risen in recent months with a series of violent incidents.
Those killed has been named by the Palestinian Wafa news agency as Ali Muhammad Aqqab Abu-Maryam and Said Judah Abu-al-Wafa. They had been shot "in cold blood", according to the news agency.
The Israel Defense Forces said the soldiers had "thwarted the attack and shot the assailants".
Relations between Israelis and Palestinians remain tense amid a wave of attacks on Israelis by Palestinians and some Israeli Arabs which have killed 22 Israelis since the beginning of October.
During that time 149 Palestinians – more than half said by Israel to be attackers – have been shot dead by security forces or their victims. Others have been killed in clashes with Israeli forces.
Overnight, Israeli forces demolished a home in the West Bank belonging to relatives of a Palestinian – Muhannad Halabi – shot dead in October after killing a rabbi in Jerusalem's Old City.
Israel says home demolitions, which have come under international criticism, are a way of discouraging Palestinian attacks.
On January 8, an Israeli Arab wanted for shooting dead three people in Tel Aviv on January 1st was killed by security forces in northern Israel.
Nashat Melhem was followed to a mosque in his home town of Arara and died in a gun battle, police said.
Police said Nashat Melhem, 29, was the gunman who killed two Israelis at a bar, then the Israeli Arab driver of a taxi who picked him up after the attack.
Nashat Melhem's father, Mohammed, had identified his son as the suspect and reported him to the police. Mohammed Melhem and several relatives have been arrested in connection with the case.
Police have not yet established a motive for the Tel Aviv killings.
Security will be tightened in Israeli Arab areas after a gunman killed two people in a shooting at a popular bar in Tel Aviv, Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu has said.
Visiting the scene of the attack on January 2, Benjamin Netanyahu demanded "loyalty to the state's laws from everyone".
Police have named a 29-year-old Israeli Arab as the suspect. No motive has been established for the shooting.
Seven people were also wounded, four of them seriously, in January 1 attack outside the bar.
Security forces are on "heightened alert" and are searching for the gunman who is still at large, police said on January 2.
Visiting the bar in Dizengoff Street, Benjamin Netanyahu praised Israeli Arab leaders for condemning the killings – but said Israel was in danger of becoming "a state of law for most citizens, and a state within a state with Islamist incitement and illegal arms that are often used in weddings, celebrations and criminal incidents", the Jerusalem Post reports.
Benjamin Netanyahu said his government would "bolster law enforcement efforts in the Negev, the Galilee, the Triangle, everywhere". This would include building new police stations and recruiting more police officers.
The attack took place in a busy part of Tel Aviv city center filled with bars and cafes.
Security camera footage showed the gunman taking an automatic rifle out of his backpack and then firing at least 15 shots at people in the street before fleeing the scene.
The two victims have been identified as Alon Bakal, 26, who was a manager at the bar targeted, and Shimon Ruimi, 30.
The suspect, from northern Israel, had stolen the gun from his father, who works in security, Haaretz newspaper reported.
The father recognized his son from media reports and contacted the police, the newspaper said.
Tel Aviv shootings follow a wave of Palestinian attacks against Israelis over the past few months.
Two people have been killed and seven others injured after a gunman opened fire with an automatic rifle at a Tel Aviv bar, Israeli police say.
Four of the wounded had suffered serious injuries.
Security forces have launched a huge manhunt for the gunman, cordoning off areas of the city.
The incident took place in Dizengoff Street in Tel Aviv's center.
It was not immediately clear what motivated the shooting, which follows a wave of Palestinian attacks against Israelis over the past few months.
Undercover units and counter-terrorism units were working in different areas of Tel Aviv.
However, Tel Aviv Mayor Ron Huldai told reporters at the scene that "this appears to be a terrorist attack motivated by nationalism," the Jerusalem Post reported.
As of December 23, 2015, at least 21 Israelis had been killed in the recent violence, most of them in stabbings and shooting attacks by Palestinians.
At least 131 Palestinians have also been killed. More than half were said by Israel to be attackers. Others have been killed in clashes with Israeli forces.
The US has released former navy analyst Jonathan Pollard, who was jailed for life in 1987 for passing classified information to Israel.
Jonathan Pollard, 61, was freed from a feeral prison in North Carolina on November 20, ending one of the longest-running and most contentious issues between the US and Israel.
His parole conditions require him to remain in the US for five years.
Repeated Israeli appeals over the years for the US to show clemency towards Jonathan Pollard were rejected.
Jonathan Pollard traveled to a federal courthouse in New York on the day of release to challenge the conditions of his parole.
He must wear a GPS ankle bracelet and submit to inspections of his home and work. His legal team calls the terms "onerous and oppressive'".
Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu said the Israeli people welcomed his release.
The prime minister's spokesperson tweeted: "As someone who has raised Jonathan Pollard's case for many years with US presidents, I have wished for this day.
After he was questioned by the FBI, Jonathan Pollard and his then-wife, Anne, sought asylum at the Israeli embassy in Washington but were turned away.
Israel initially denied Jonathan Pollard had spied for them, insisting he had worked with "rogue" officials.
In 1995, Israel granted Jonathan Pollard citizenship, and two years later, they admitted he was their agent.
Supporters of Jonathan Pollard in Israel and the US campaigned for his release, arguing that his sentence was unjust.
The US reportedly considered freeing Jonathan Pollard in 2014 in return for Israeli concessions to the Palestinians during faltering peace talks, before negotiations collapsed.
In an interview with the Associated Press in 1998, Jonathan Pollard said the price he had paid for spying had not been worth it.
"There is nothing good that came as a result of my actions," he said.
Secretary of State John Kerry has announced that Israel and Jordan have agreed on moves aimed at reducing tensions surrounding Jerusalem Jerusalem's Temple Mount/Haram al-Sharif holy site.
Issues relating to the complex have been at the center of violence between Israelis and Palestinians in recent weeks.
John Kerry was speaking after talks in Jordan, the formal custodian of what is known to Jews as the Temple Mount and as Haram al-Sharif to Muslims.
He said Israel had renewed a pledge to maintain existing rules there.
In the latest upsurge of violence, at least 8 Israelis have been killed and dozens wounded in knife or gun attacks by Palestinians, following rumors that Israel was planning to change the rules.
About 50 Palestinians, including several of the attackers, have been killed in recent weeks.
John Kerry, who is on a tour of the region, met Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas and King Abdullah of Jordan in Amman on October 24.
"All the violence and the incitement to violence must stop. Leaders must lead," John Kerry told reporters.
The steps he announced include round-the-clock video monitoring and Israel's agreement to reaffirm Jordan's historic role as custodian of the religious complex.
Israel says it has not challenged the status quo on the Temple Mount and has no intention of doing so.
John Kerry met Israel's PM Benjamin Netanyahu on October 22, and said the talks had raised ideas that were worth exploring.
On October 24, John Kerry will travel to Saudi Arabia for talks with regional leaders.
In the latest violence, Israeli police said they shot dead a Palestinian attacker in the northern West Bank on Saturday, October 24.
Israeli authorities have begun a major security operation in Arab areas of occupied East Jerusalem, after a surge in attacks by Palestinians.
Entrances to Jabal Mukaber, a district where three men accused of killing three Israelis on October 13 came from, have been blocked by police on October 14.
The Israeli military also deployed hundreds of soldiers to assist.
Later, police said they had shot dead a man who attempted to stab a guard on the edge of Jerusalem's Old City.
Since the beginning of October, seven Israelis have been killed and dozens wounded in shooting and stabbing attacks, the Israeli authorities say.
At least 30 Palestinians have also been killed, including assailants, and hundreds have been injured, according to the Palestinian health ministry.
On October 13, Israel's security cabinet authorized police to close or surround "centers of friction and incitement" in Jerusalem.
It also announced that the homes of Palestinians who attacked Israelis would be demolished within days and never rebuilt, and that their families' right to live in Jerusalem would be taken away.
On October 14, a police spokeswoman told the AFP news agency that checkpoints were being set up at "the exits of Palestinian villages and neighborhoods in East Jerusalem".
Israeli newspapers later reported that several entrances to Jabal Mukaber had been blocked by police, with neither people nor vehicles allowed in or out. Several more areas were expected to be closed off by the end of the day.
Human Rights Watch warned that locking down parts of East Jerusalem would "infringe upon the freedom of movement of all Palestinian residents rather than being a narrowly tailored response to a specific concern".
"The checkpoints are a recipe for harassment and abuse," said Sari Bashi, the group's Israel/Palestine country director, in a statement.
Meanwhile, the Israeli military said it was preparing to deploy six companies to assist police. Three hundred soldiers are already providing additional security under police command.
The security cabinet's decisions were made after the bloodiest day in Jerusalem since the latest wave of unrest began in early October.

Bitva u Slivnice (, ) bylo klíčové střetnutí srbsko-bulharské války mezi 5. a 7.greg. listopadem 1885.

Úvod
Plovdivský převrat, kterým došlo de facto ke sjednocení Bulharska, byl považován za porušení rovnováhy na Balkáně ujednané na Berlínském kongresu. Reakcí srbské strany bylo vypovězení války Bulharsku 2.greg. listopadu. Srbské vojsko snadno porazilo bulharskou domobranu a policejní jednotky nedaleko od hranic, ale jeho taktika byla špatná a po prvních dvou dnech postupu, kdy překonalo horské hřbety a proniklo na západ Sofijské kotliny, třetí den odpočívalo, čímž umožnilo bulharské a rumelijské armádě se přesunout od tureckých hranic, kde byly rozloženy.

Bitva
Před bitvou měli Srbové na místě asi 25 000 vojáků, kdežto Bulhaři jen 12 000. Srbové plánovali útok na Slivnicu na 6. listopad, kdy měly na místo dorazit Šumadijská a Moravská divize a připojit se tak k Dunajské divizi a Drinské divizi s jezdeckou brigádou, které už byly na místě.

5. listopad
Bulhaři zaútočili na levé křídlo Dunajské divize a jezdecké brigády, která byla s ní. Pro ulehčení levého křídla šla Dunajská divize do protiútoku, nicméně Bulhaři neustoupili. Pak zaútočila na střed slivnické pozice Drinská divize, ale bez účinné dělostřelecké podpory, která neměla dostatečný dostřel. Bitva pokračovala až do tmy s velkými ztrátami. Z boje bylo vyřazeno na 1 200 Srbů a 600 Bulharů.

6. listopad
Oběma stranám se dařilo posilovat počty. Srbům dorazila ke Slivnici z jihozápadu Šumadijská divize. V obavě o svoje levé křídlo vyslali Bulhaři do týlu Moravské divize dva prapory v počtu 1 500 mužů, kteří ji zdrželi u Brezniku o 24 hodin a donutily ponechat na místě posílený zadní voj. V srbském generálním štábu v Caribrodu se obávali, aby Bulhaři nepronikli po levém křídle k dragomanskému průsmyku, a tak vyslali část Dunajské divize k jeho ochraně. Oslabená divize musela ustoupit a Bulhaři se zmocnili strategické výšiny Meka Črev. Drinská divize zatím hájila pozice, přestože ztratila asi stovku mužů a jednomu pluku došla munice. Srbské dělostřelectvo se ukázalo slabší než bulharské.

7. listopad
Onoho dne dosáhly srbské síly 40 000 mužů a bulharské 32 000. Brzy ráno vyslali Bulhaři jednotku k vesnici Gurguljat, kde se střetla se třemi srbskými prapory. které měly za úkol obejít bulharské pozice, a do odpoledne je porazila, čímž zajistila bulharskou převahu na jižním křídle.

Srbské jednotky na severu získaly zpět část ztraceného území a drželi výšinu Tri Uši. Po sedmi hodinách útoků se Bulharům podařilo výšinu dobýt a rozdělit Dunajskou divizi, která se však díky pomoci Drinské divize a jezdecké brigády stačila zformovat a spořádaně ustupovat k Dragomanskému průsmyku. Srbské jednotky ve středu musely čelit silnému útoku. Na jejich pravém křídle od 10 hodin bojovala Moravská divize, ale v oslabených počtech na Bulhary nestačila a pomoci od sousední Šumadijské divize se jí nedostalo. V důsledku bojů na křídlech Bulhaři oslabili svůj střed, čehož chtěla Šumadijská divize využít, ale její útok nebyl dostatečně rozhodný. S výjimkou Dunajské divize, která začala ustupovat kolem půl čtvrté odpoledne, pokračovaly boje až do tmy, která zabránila úplnému zhroucení srbských sil.

Ještě téhož dne vstoupily jednotky bulharského předvoje do Srbska u vesnice Ropot poblíž Godče. Poslední den byl nejkrvavější z celé války. Srbská strana přišla o 2 200 lidí, Bulharsko o 1 800.

Shrnutí
Úspěch Bulharů vyplynul z toho, že porazili srbské levé křídlo. Na ostatních místech bojiště žádnou výraznou převahu ani jedna ze stran nezískala, i když Srbové zde byli aktivnější. Vzhledem k tomu, že Dunajská divize ustoupila, ostatní divize nemohly zůstat na svém místě a nejvyšší velení nařídilo ještě ten večer všeobecný ústup z bojiště. Třídenní bitva skončila neúspěchem Srbska.

I've been told that I am "unique" and even "blessed", not many people have Ataxia. I do. This is my story, my journey, with this rare and life-altering disease. I hope you find this inspirational and uplifting.
I was born on a cold Thanksgiving day, 1971 in Arlington Heights, IL. My mom always said I was her "big turkey". Little did I know that this "big turkey" was in store for a wild ride through life. Twisting and turning, by no fault of mine, but of my disease that was hidden inside me for many years before I ever knew what Ataxia was and it's devastating effect is has on the human body.
The Cerebellum has 2 sides with a membrane going right up the center, it sits at the back part of your brain.

Sensations: The Story of British Art from Hogarth to Banksy
Downloads & extras
What is the artistic impulse uniting Robert Hooke's drawings of insects, George Stubbs's studies of horses and Damien Hirst's pickled shark? In this new and spirited account of British art, Jonathan Jones argues for empiricism. From the Enlightenment to the present, British artists have shared a passion for looking hard at the world around them. Jones shows how this zeal for precision and careful observation paved the way for Realism, Impressionism and the birth of modern art.
Jonathan Jones is the art critic for The Guardian newspaper. He was on the jury for the 2009 Turner Prize and is the author of The Loves of the Artists: Art and Passion in the Renaissance and The Lost Battles: Leonardo, Michelangelo and the Artistic Duel that Defined the Renaissance.

! This is NOT a method of direct communication with The Village Blooms for purposes of ordering or rectifying problems.
What a beautiful arrangement! Just what I needed on a gloomy day. The wonderful scent filled the room all day! Thank you!
Very beautiful arrangement was delivered and recipient was so happy!
The arrangement is so beautiful & fresh! Village Blooms does an amazing job!
Thank you so much Sharon! So glad we continue to earn your wonderful review!
The arrangement of roses is beautiful and fresh! They smell amazing and are still gorgeous 3 days after delivery.
I placed an online order and although the flowers i requested were not available. i immediately received a call to inform me and assist me with picking out a new arrangement. Thank You !
Flowers are gorgeous and delivered with a smile!
Andrea made a very beautiful floral display for my aunt in Westmoreland. Both the cost of the display and the delivery charge were very reasonable. I highly recommend The Village Blooms if you want a very special floral delivery for someone you know.
Flowers were beautifull and delivered on time. Great folks.
Thank you so much for the wonderful review! I am glad you are happy with your flower purchase and I hope you visit our site again for future purchases.
The bouquet of flowers were absolutely lovely and their colors vibrant. Came at a good time for cheering ME due to the cold spell that we have had. Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much Diane. So glad you are enjoying them!
I ordered flowers last year for my mother in law's birthday and they came out beautiful! I decided to order them again and they were even better! Thank you so much for doing a great job :) My mother in law has a bit of a green thumb so I when it comes to flowers I want nothing but the best and you guys certainly provide that and more!
The arrangement was lovely, but the delivery was very late.
The arrangement we received was beautifully done, the blooms so very fresh. We were pleased.
I had ordered flowers to be delivered to friends for their anniversary on Friday and they ended up getting delivered on Saturday. Once I brought this to the attention of the florist, they were most apologetic and had forgotten to call me to explain why they were a day late. They even offered me a partial refund which I found to be extremely generous! The flowers were beautiful and I can't say enough about their customer service. Not many businesses own up to an error, let alone offer any type of refund. I will certainly buy from The Village Blooms again!
Bouquet very fresh, and long lasting. I wish flower preservative had been included, but I acquired some on my own.
Excellent arrangement !!! Great to have you in Walpole.
Wonderful, my morher was very pleased!
I normally order flowers online for my friends & family back east but worry about the quality & freshness. On top of those concerns is the price and delivery fees. I called from Phoenix, Arizona to have The Village Bloom deliver flowers to my mom for her birthday. Not only could they deliver same day but the cost was a fraction of what the big vendors charge online. Thank you for making my decision easy in the future!
Thank you so much for the positive review! I'm so glad you called us directly to place your order...that's always the best way to order. Check your email for a picture of the arrangement that was sent to your mother. I truly hope she enjoys it!
Andrea and her staff did all the flowers for my wedding and it was way more beautiful than I ever expected. Everything was perfect. I told her the colors and flowers I liked...and she put it all together. Everything was prettier than I ever could have imagined. Thanks Village Blooms for making it a magical day!
The bouquet was lovely. I will use your services when the occasion arises.

What am I missing? I thought is was working in sandbox, but I guess didn't look closely.
Essentially, I hid all forms (buttons) in CSS. I then us JS to show them, but only one at a time.
Then HTML for the dropdown select. Is the problem in the JS, selecting the form?
Thanks in advance!

A: This FIDDLE BEGINS to help you with your problem.
$(document).ready(function () {

    $('select[name=Membership_Selection]').change(function (e) {
        switch ($(this).val()) {
            case "A":
                hideAllExcept($("#A"));
                break;
            case "B":
                hideAllExcept($("#B"));
                break;
            case "C":
                hideAllExcept($("#C"));
               break;
           default:
               // do something defaultly
       }
   });
});

function hideAllExcept(toShow) {
    toShow.show();
    $("#membership").find('div').each(function () {
        if ($(this).attr('id') != toShow.attr('id')) {
            $(this).hide();
        }
    });
}

I had to remove A LOT of code so I could understand. Now you just need to paste some stuff in there and get to work.
Some hints:

*

*1) Don't use center tag, like, ever;

*2) Careful with some typos, like double single quotes when you only meant one. Also, 'a'
is different from 'a ', so be extra careful;

*3) First, try to build the whole HTML BEFORE using styles (like the font tag, ew),
and style everything using CSS;

*4) Don't use table as mean of styling;

*5) Refator your code before continuing doing anything else, please.

This is NOT the entire answer you need, but it was what I was able to do.

He had first railed on Jesus – Lk 23:39; Matt 27:44 – you may have cursed him, too – Matt 12:31-32 – the fact that you may have taken the Lord's name in vain is no excuse to refuse to receive Jesus.
His friend didn't fear God – Lk 23:40 – just because your friends don't want to receive Jesus is no reason for you to refuse – your friends are not going to answer for you before God – as a matter of fact, they won't even be standing there with you – your friends' refusal to receive Christ is no excuse for you to refuse to receive him.
He had committed capital crimes – Lk 23:41 – you may have done many bad things – you have not been as bad as this thief and he believed on Jesus – your past is no excuse to refuse to receive Jesus.
He was watching the Lord die – Lk 23:42 – you must understand that it is much simpler for you to trust the risen Saviour than it was for this man to trust Christ – you know that he has risen; this man was watching him die – the only scripture that he could see at the time was the inscription written above the Lord's head, "This is Jesus of Nazareth, the King of the Jews" – but those words were enough – he believed that Jesus would enter his kingdom and this man wanted to be there with him – your unbelief is no excuse to refuse to believe Jesus.
He also was dying that day – Lk 23:43 – you might be saying, "It's too late for me" – it's never too late – as long as you are breathing you can still trust Jesus – the fact that the better part of your life is in the past is too bad but it is not too late – the fact that you may be dying is no excuse to refuse to receive Jesus.
Conclusion: I am convinced that the reason you are hearing this broadcast today [or are reading this transcript] is that you are like the thief on the cross or you know someone who is. If you are like him, you should be encouraged that in spite of some rather good excuses, this thief trusted Jesus on the spot. And you need to trust him too. If you know someone who is like this thief, don't listen to their excuses. Just remember that they may think they have good excuses to refuse Christ, but they really don't. They should be encouraged to know that in spite of their excuses, they can and should trust Christ. Don't give up on them. Their time is not up until they are dead.

Alteril – What Is It?
Good sleep is on of the most important factors in getting into shape and performing at our best. And it also tends to be the most neglected, especially by high achievers. "I'll sleep when I'm dead" is the workaholic's motto. But more and more, we're finding research pointing to the fact that whether your trying to lose weight, build muscle, get straight A's or land that promotion, you need good sleep, and you need it regularly.
Alteril is an all natural way to get you that good sleep you need. Created by Biotab Neutroceuticals, Alteril helps you fall and stay asleep gently, using ingredients that have been used for decades to encourage sleep naturally. The promise is that you'll sleep fall asleep quickly, you'll sleep deeply all night, and you'll wake up refreshed, not groggy. And Alteril is non-habit forming, so you won't have to worry about the problems associated with prescription sleep aids.
When you take 1 or 2 Alteril tablets about an hour before bed time, you'll fall asleep gently yet quickly, and you'll stay asleep the whole night. When you wake up in the morning, you're up and ready to get to work with full focus and concentration.
L-Tryptophan is widely known as the ingredient in turkey that makes you sleepy after eating Thanksgiving dinner. It's an amino acid that converts to the neurotransmitter, serotonin. Once converted, it helps you feel content and sleepy.
Melatonin is a hormone that tells your body to sleep.
Valerian is a natural herb that's been used for centuries to help people relax, get calm, and fall asleep. Studies have shown that it may reduce the time it takes for you to fall asleep.
Alteril contains a few other natural ingredients that may help you sleep better. These include GABA, a neurotransmitter that helps ease anxiety, Chamomile for a calming effect, and Passion Flower for promoting relaxation.
While the ingredients in Alteril are all natural and side effects should be minimal, there are a few you should be on the lookout for. Dry mouth, headaches, and nausea are the most common. Some users have expressed an increase in anxiety when taking Alteril, especially those taking SSRIs. So be sure to discuss taking Alteril with your doctor.
It is all natural and non habit forming.
There are tons of favorable Alteril reviews from customers.
Alteril does not contains antihistamines like most over-the-counter sleep aids.
Alteril may not be compatible with SSRIs.
You should not take it if you're pregnant or nursing.
It's more expensive than many other OTC sleep aids.
You can find Alteril in plenty of retail stores, like Walmart and CVS. The price is around $15 for 30 tablets or $30 for a 60-count pack. If you want, you can also order it online, where you'll have a choice of several different packages, some of which include other products that make up an entire "sleep system." There's also a maintenance program where they'll send you a 30-count package every month for $15.95 plus shipping. You can sign up for this at the Alteril website.
No matter where you buy Alteril, you are covered by the manufacturer guarantee which applies to one empty package.
Getting good sleep is a huge part of living a healthy lifestyle. If you regularly have trouble with this, it makes sense to seek out a natural solution. Alteril may just be that solution. The natural ingredients should be able to help you get a good night's sleep without negative side effects. The only drawback is that it can get expensive in the long term. So along with Alteril, we recommend you try a few old fashioned remedies, like a hot bath or some warm milk.

On-the Mark Food and Beer: Delaney's Hole in the Wall
By Elizabeth R. Elstien
Family-owned Delaney's Hole in the Wall in North Conway has been around since 1994. Winning awards and setting standards for delicious food, Delaney's is a sports-themed bar owned by Lanette and Dick Delaney and Dick's sister, Maryellen. Each business partner brings their special skills and years of experience in restaurants and business into play.
Lanette, explains Dick Delaney, has run the kitchen "from day one. She has an amazing pallet and is a really good cook and baker." Chef Jeremy Delaney (interestingly, of no relation to the owners) has been developing recipes with Lanette since 1996. Serving lunch and dinner, diners can order from the regular menu or gluten-free, sushi or kid's menus. Dick Delaney is especially proud that of the fact that "99% of our menu is made from scratch" using predominantly locally-sourced ingredients. Even the desserts, prepared by Lanette, are made in-house.
Delaney says that the wings are his customers' favorite appetizer - which is no surprise, given that they've accumulated accolades both statewide and nationally through reviewers like Boston.com and The New Hampshire Magazine.
Featuring an inventive menu with New England flavors, meal favorites are the Reuben sandwich and baby back ribs, which Delaney describes as "very popular and really good." Delaney's personal favorites are the Texas Tornado sandwich - made with maple-jalapeno-brushed chicken breast, cheddar cheese, and Applewood-smoked bacon - and the Chicken Gorgonzola dish - chicken breast stuffed with spinach, prosciutto, and bleu cheese, then rolled in fresh bread crumbs and sauteed.
Cold, locally-brewed beers on tap and six TVs greet you in the tavern. With its brickwork, arches, lighting and fireplace, the building has a warm and rustic appeal that makes you want to stay awhile. Portions are large and service is attentive. You can even buy a bottle of their famous Buffalo Wing or Honey Hot Wing sauce to take home.
True to their theme, Delaney explains that he and his wife "jumped right into supporting local sports from youth programs to high school." Delaney is president of a group of independent restaurants in the area known as The Valley Originals, which supports "all sorts of nonprofits, sports teams and the arts," Delaney says, and gave over $400,000 back to the community in 2015.
As for the sports memorabilia that covers the walls in the bar, Delaney started collecting it six to seven years before they purchased the restaurant's building. Delaney explains, "I had most of it hanging on the walls of our house, just waiting for the right opportunity to come along. So I had a really good starting point for a sports-themed bar before we bought the place. Since then, we have been adding new things all the time."

If you are not online, your business could already be trailing your competitors. As more people use the internet for different business activities such as making purchases and researching products, as well as getting in touch with brands for customer service, Many businesses have set up a social media catalog, as well as developing a website. WordPress is the largest website builder on the internet, with around 30% of pages based on this open source code. It is very popular with businesses too, ranging from small start ups to large players. You could benefit from having your business online and more so if you are using WordPress to develop and host your site. Here's how the content management system will boost your business profile.
Many businesses do not have an expense allocation for online marketing, even those with a large network on the internet. These businesses look o rely on an affordable way to grow their profile online. While other CMS will require some registration fees and other premium payments, WordPress is completely free. Since 2003 when it was first released, users have been able to install and set up their websites for free on the platform. You may be required to pay for your domain name, but that is a significantly low cost that will only recur after a long period of time. WordPress also includes free themes and plugins, enabling users to get their desired website build for no charge. While free plugins from third party sources can be appealing, you should not use plugins from suspicious third party sources because they could expose your business website to vulnerability, and may compromise the safety and security of both your brand and visitors.
People are always more willing to visit and trust websites that appear at the top of search engine results. You can pay to have your website at the top of Google search results, but this will not be as effective as organic listings and naturally high rankings. More people would be likely to visit an organic listing than a promoted website, even if they each have the same information. You can improve your SEO ranking by optimizing for speed, through practices such as constantly updating your site, removing any unnecessary elements, managing your content and indexing your pages. You will be able to provide visitors with a great experience on your website, which will organically raise your ranking. A higher ranking will increase your business' visibility, which could translate to a better chance to achieve your business goals. Web hosting will play a big part in shaping your rankings. You should consider doing away with shared hosting in favor of dedicated webs hosting to reduce the possible consequences to your ranking by other unoptimized websites under the same host.
WordPress offers a number of features that will improve user experience to the point that these visitors will likely make a return visit. It can be optimized for speed, which is one of the biggest metrics that determine user satisfaction. By being on WordPress, you could improve your page load times and attract visitors who would otherwise look for alternatives if your page were to load too slowly. There are many plugins available with a range of functions, including those that help website owners schedule posts. You will be able to maintain consistency with your posts, even when you do not have the time to make the posts yourself. Visitors will always have a reason to visit your website if the content is relevant to their interests and regularly posted. The multimedia support provided by the platform also enables website owners to diversify content, which keeps their website exciting and increases the rate of return visits. To maximize on the return visits and increase return rates overall, you should track analytics through Google's analytic tools. You will be better able to understand the users' interests and capitalize on them.
WordPress is scalable, which means website owners have the ability to choose their desired website type. WordPress started as a blogger platform, but has developed to incorporate all types of websites, ranging from social media, business websites, brand pages, social media, forums and even live prank counters. Certain website types allow for high levels of user interaction and engagement. As more people visit and contribute to your website, as well as interact with each other and your business, you will develop a close knit online community with your followers. They will be more likely to be loyal to your business and enjoy the experience. WordPress supports the creation of a community by providing social media integration, comment boxes and other tools that will help boost engagement levels. In order to maintain a great SEO, you should consider breaking down these comments into pages so as to reduce the total page load data.
There are 4 billion active users on the internet, which includes a large number of uses within your target demographic. By going online, you will increase your ability to reach these people. The result of an increase in visibility could be increased revenues and higher conversion rates, which are likely to be part of your business goals. The exposure provided by having an online presence is unbeatable. As more people join the internet, it is becoming the premier platform for marketing and advertising. In order to maximize of this benefit, you should make sure to promote your website and business through strategic marketing and remarketing on social media platforms.

Protecting Scotland's marine habitats and reviving its coastal fisheries may go hand in hand in a 'blue recovery' – Philip Taylor
Allowing North Sea cod populations to recover could dramatically increase catches while remaining within sustainable limits, says Philip Taylor (Photo: Andrew Parsons / PA)
The Scottish government recently published its 10-year assessment of the health of our seas. The results are alarming: many fish populations remain in poor condition, the seabed is regularly damaged and goals to stop the disastrous degradation of Scotland's underwater habitats have failed.
One of the causes, according to marine scientists, is the current approach to fishing. To quote the results, "pressures associated with bottom contact and pelagic fishing continue to be the most widespread direct pressures geographically in the majority of Scottish marine areas".
Register now to our opinion newsletter
In the midst of this problem, there is an urgent opportunity for change.
Scotland's second most valuable wild seafood is the humble prawn – Nephrops norvegicus, otherwise known as langoustine or what most call 'scampi'.
It is a crustacean, like a small lobster, that lives in burrows in the carbon-rich mud of our sea lochs and the wider seabed. Recently, this shrimp has become emblematic of the woes of the sea and seafood industry in Scotland.
Insight: How Scotland's fishery has been sunk by red tape since Brexit
As a Brexit-related trade crisis unfolded with shellfish exports disrupted and many boats still stranded, shrimp exposed some of the less resilient parts of our fishing industry.
For much of Scotland's rich fishing history, scampi were a by-product of abundant fish catches. Fishermen sweeping the seabed in search of cod, hake and whiting, threw the shrimp overboard into the sea.
Now, following the collapse of our main coastal fisheries (herring, haddock and cod) and our consolidated fishing quotas in the hands of fewer and fewer companies, captains have resorted to shrimp trawling.
The shrimp has become a mainstay – a symptom of 'fishing along the food chain' and is now hailed as a jewel in Scotland's seafood crown, worth around £ 80million per year, involving 450 vessels.
A large number of small boats catch shrimp using low impact fishing traps (landing the live and large shrimp to sell them as valuable langoustines), but the majority are caught by bottom trawls, which aggressively sweep the sea around the sea. seabed to sell their catch as langoustines.
That is until last year, when the thriving shrimp market collapsed by almost half due to the double shocks of Brexit and Covid. Dependence on European buyers and restaurants has made this shellfish trade particularly vulnerable.
Figures released this month show that the 2020 catches have declined by more than 30% from the previous year. Industry leaders warn that the viability of our seafood industry as it is currently structured is in jeopardy. The Scottish Government has set aside £ 1million for an emergency 'Norway lobster task force' to identify a 'vision for the future of the industry', as well as providing several million more as part of Covid's emergency support.
So, are these curtains for the lowly shrimp and the boats that catch them? As a charity dedicated to promoting more sustainable seafood, we don't think so.
A long-standing problem has been the government's " hands off " approach to determining who fishes where, leaving fishermen on the water to " sort it out among themselves ", effectively transferring decision-making powers to regional inshore fishing groups.
So far, these groups have failed in a monumental way to implement an inshore fishing strategy and are dominated by the voices of those who control many vessels but seldom fish themselves, or who can afford to send their own. associate lobbyists. It literally leads to a race to the bottom. Competition is fierce and leads to overexploitation, reducing profit margins. The result is a fleet that does not function in the best interests of Scotland plc.
The result is a dangerously imbalanced fishing system from an environmental point of view. Bottom trawling for langoustines is very fuel-intensive, causing damage to seabed habitats and re-suspending significant amounts of marine carbon in the water column (although its provenance is yet to be understood).
It also implies high levels of bycatch of other juvenile fish: huge quantities of fish caught as bycatch are thrown back into the sea because they are either too small or there is no quota. to disembark them.
These damaging dynamics are preventing recovery from the collapse of the west coast cod population. It is also illegal, although the Scottish government has sought to deregulate discards, claiming that selectivity (i.e. catching shrimp without bycatch of juveniles) is 'difficult to achieve' for scampi trawlers.
But it doesn't have to be: doing what is good for the health of our seas can lead to economic recovery.
Research commissioned by the Scottish Government has shown that better spatial management of bottom trawling in our coastal seas would yield rapid benefits, in terms of value and jobs created, simply by shifting the balance between bottom trawling and low impact creping.
This would pave the way for the re-establishment of once abundant fish populations (now accidentally caught). That would mean locally caught fish again available in places like Oban, Scotland's seafood capital, rather than a small selection of shellfish.
Until then, we remain in the open: overfishing keeps fish catches low and suppresses economic activity. Allowing populations to recover could triple North Sea cod catches, while remaining within sustainable limits.
The Economic Recovery Advisory Group report calls for an economic recovery that is best for communities, jobs and without harming Scotland's natural resources. Even before the Covid-19 crisis, the government's management of coastal fisheries performed poorly in all three areas: the overall value of fish landings fell by £ 26million between 2018 and 2019; jobs in the fishing industry have fallen by 316 since 2010. The report recommended that government support be made conditional: no more blank checks for unsustainable practices, but rather targeted funding to spur change.
We have the choice. Rather than supporting unsustainable bottom trawling in our coastal waters, the government can limit the damaging environmental footprint of bottom trawling and revive coastal fishing in Scotland. With the right program of supports, the government can protect rural communities and lead a just transition.

'I Should Have Gone Home': Jordyn Woods Denies Intimate Encounter With Thompson But Confesses to Bad Judgment
Khloe Kardashian shot back on social media that the former Kardashian confidante broke up her family
By Eric Hinton	• Published at 12:38 pm on March 1, 2019
Jordyn Woods is speaking, but Khloe Kardashian isn't buying it.
The 21-year-old model sat down with Jada Pinkett Smith for an episode of the actress' Facebook Watch show Red Table Talk, which premiered Friday. Over the course of the interview, Woods denied she had an intimate encounter with Tristan Thompson, who last week separated from Khloe Kardashian after rumors of a fling between the two of them.
Woods says the incident started innocently enough when she joined a group of friends heading back to Thompson's house after an evening out last week.
"I went to dinner with some friends and I went to this bar... there was a party going on. I was minding my own business, dancing, drinking. Tristan was there. He was doing his own thing. That was it. After the club, normal L.A. culture when you're young after the club, we all go to a house after. We're not thinking about who's house or where it's at. We're just having fun. It's in the moment."
Woods says soon the small group that she was with said they were heading to Thompson's house.
"I'm like cool. That's OK. It feels like a safe environment. I know him. He didn't even personally invite me there. It wasn't like 'Come see me.'"
When they arrived at the house Woods says "We're all dancing. We're all drinking. And I'm not thinking I shouldn't be here. And that was my first mistake. And how would I feel if someone close to me is hanging at my ex's house or the father of my child. I didn't think about that. That's the first part of the problem. I should have gone home after the party. I shouldn't have been there."
Woods admits as the night went on she and Thompson got more comfortable than they perhaps should have been, but says it didn't cross the line.
"The night is going on and never once was I giving him a lapdance, making out with him, sitting all over him. It's just we're all together. We're all in a group. Never did we leave the public area to go to a bedroom, go to a bathroom. We're all in plain sight."
She added, 'he didn't try to take me to a room. it was all just an innocent time."
But later in the interview, Woods did confess the pair had exchanged a kiss at the end of the evening.
"On the way out he did kiss me," Woods said. "No passion... he just kissed me. It was a kiss on the lips but there was no making out. And I don't think he's wrong either because I allowed myself to be in that position and when alcohol is involved people make dumb moves or get caught up in the moment."
But minutes after the interview was posted Khloe Kardashian fired back on social media.
"Why are you lying @jordynwoods ?? If you're going to try and save yourself by going public, INSTEAD OF CALLING ME PRIVATELY TO APOLOGIZE FIRST, at least be HONEST about your story. BTW, You ARE the reason my family broke up!" she wrote.
A few moments later Kardashian added another post including blame for the demise of her relationship to Thompson as well.
Tristan is equally to blame but Tristan is the father of my child. Regardless of what he does to me I won't do that to my daughter. He has been addressing this situation PRIVATELY. If Tristan were to lie publicly about what conspired,then yes I would address him publicly as well
