Yedioth Ahronoth, Haaretz, Maariv and Israel Hayom all lead with the Teva announcement that 1,700 workers in Israel will be made redundant with five plants to be sold or closed. Yesterday, Teva announced that it would  reduce its global workforce by 14,000. The company’s leadership believe that the streamlining plan will save the company $3bn in the next two years.

Kan Radio News reported this morning that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Finance Minister Kahlon said that they would meet next week with Teva CEO Schultz and would attempt to reduce the extent of the redundancies in Israel. Netanyahu said that he would take action to prevent the plant in Jerusalem from being closed, and Kahlon said that he expected a company that had been an Israeli symbol of international success for decades to work with a vengeance to minimise the blow to employees in Israel, the company’s home base.

The media also widely report on the decision by the Supreme Court of Justice that ordered the state to return the bodies of the terrorists that are being held as bargaining chips for the return of the bodies of IDF soldiers and the two civilian captives, or to enact a law that would permit keeping them. Israel Hayom’s front page features a quote from an unnamed official who says “relinquishing bodies of terrorists is a tailwind for terrorism”. Maariv quotes Netanyahu who called it “highly problematic. Hamas must not receive gifts for free. I will convene the security Cabinet ministers and the Attorney General for a special meeting to find practical and legal solutions to keep up the pressure on Hamas,” he said. The Goldin family – whose son’s body is being held by Hamas – issued a statement saying that the decision “would only step up the pressure on the Prime Minister and the security cabinet ministers to get off their chairs, roll up their sleeves and get to work on bringing Hadar and Oron back to Israel.” Kan Radio News reports comments by Justice Minister Aliyat Shaked who plans to distribute a legal memorandum to amend the counterterrorism act to make it possible to hold onto bodies for the purpose of negotiating.
