Haifa’s mayor in occupied Palestine, Yona Yahav, has described the current situation in the city as an “unprecedented economic blow,” with businesses shuttered and streets deserted. His remarks follow a series of rocket strikes by Hezbollah on November 11, targeting settlements in the Haifa district, including Kiryat Ata, Kiryat Yam, and Kiryat Bialik, part of the Krayot settlement cluster.

Why ‘Israel’s’ ultimate defeat will come from economic isolation – Al Mayadeen report.

As the divestment movement spreads, “Israel’s” economy faces a structural vulnerability. The budget deficit has widened to 8.5% of GDP, exceeding its 2024 target of 6.6%, forcing austerity measures including a proposed increase in the value-added tax to 18% by 2025.

Credit rating downgrades have led to higher borrowing costs, and the debt-to-GDP ratio has climbed to 67%.

In the past, economic strains stopped the influx and had caused the exodus of Jewish Zionists from Palestine.

However, in spite of the extraordinary capacity of the Zionist movement
to mobilize and invest capital in Palestine (financial inflows to an
increasingly self-segregated Jewish economy during the 1920s were 41.5
percent larger than its net domestic product,48
an astonishing level), between
1926 and 1932 the Jewish population ceased to grow as a proportion of the
country’s population, stagnating at between 17 and 18.5 percent.

Some of
these years coincided with the global depression, when Jews leaving
Palestine outpaced those arriving and capital inflows decreased markedly.
At that point, the Zionist project looked as if it might never attain the
critical demographic mass that would make Palestine “as Jewish as England
is English,” in Weizmann’s words.

Additionally, since October 7, 2023, the exodus from the US-BACKED pariah colony is increasing at a fast pace, Zionist media reports.

Uptick in Israelis leaving the country, data shows –
Israeli emigration soars by 42% as returnee numbers drop, signaling a troubling shift in migration patterns; The Shoresh report urges immediate action to address socio-economic and political factors driving citizens away amid ongoing national crises

Well, as the sacred Hezbollah Martyr Secretary-General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah once so beautifully said, “Based on field studies and real investigations, we can clearly say that Israel cannot survive, because the existence of Israel in the region is not a natural existence; rather, its existence does not match the nature of the region. This entity has been imposed on the region cannot and hence cannot become normalized and turn into a normal issue. Moreover, even if the Arab monarchs, emirs and rulers want it, all the nations of the region oppose the existence of Israel and firmly reject this illegitimate entity [against their rulers’ will].”
