عاجل.. خبراء إسرائيليون: "لقد خسرنا الحرب بالفعل وحان الوقت لإنهائها"
Israeli experts said: If a difficult decision is not taken to end this damned war, the economic situation may become more depressing in the Zionist entity.
And according to the Hebrew website Wallah Experts pointed out that only the military industry is currently expanding, while future indicators do not bode well either, stressing that fewer working hours, companies and associations are at risk of collapse, and an expected decline in exports, and a point can be seen.
The experts criticized. The Israelis’ procrastination in decisions related to the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip from October 7 until today, or its official name that no longer stands “Iron Swords,” began to show its effects on the Israeli economy, which somewhat withstood the first months of the war that they described as cursed. It is impossible to manage an economy for a long period without a short and clear military decision, and without a horizon, even if only partially.
Activists in the Israeli economy are harmed, their activity decreases and they harm one industry after another, so the decision "Log in" or "Do not enter" To Rafah, yes, entry, to the Philadelphia axis only? Or perhaps in the future, the erosion of all of Rafah will require the suspension of military forces for a long period, whether regular or reserve of course.
Israel experts pointed out that the call for the required reserves that will be required to decide The future of the Upper Galilee and the so-called Dan River valleys are already burdening the Israeli economy, and there is no guiding hand for companies and industries seeking a slight hit, if not today, then tomorrow.
According to trend data issued by the Central Bureau of Statistics, the decline The number of hours worked in the industry as a whole increased at an annual rate of 5.3% in the last three months from December to February after falling at an annual rate of 10.8% in the three months from September to November. 2023.
Industrial production also fell in the months from December to February at an annual rate of 6% after an 8.6% collapse in the previous three months.
Meanwhile, the high-tech industry hit the weak point of industrial production, a dive in production at an annual rate of 17.4% after falling by 12.1% in a row.
He said Zionist experts: Please note that in fact, with the exception of the mixed elite technological industries, which according to the definitions of the Central Bureau of Statistics are industries partly directly and indirectly related to the war effort, in all industries there was a decline in industrial production during the period mentioned above, including damage to the technical industries. Traditional with an annual decline of 5.6% after a decline of 8.9%
On the other hand, the increase in the volume of industrial production of mixed elite technology at an annual rate of 6.9% after an increase at an annual rate of 4.1% is due to the fact that the industries in this category include the production of weapons and ammunition, the production of machinery and equipment, the production of cars and trailers, the production of electrical equipment, the production of chemicals and their products, and the production of… Transportation and other transportation.
Simply put, in all branches of industry there is a decline in sales revenues for the domestic market except for mixed elite technology which is partly related to the current war effort. When you turn to exports, there is a decline in revenues, this time in all industries including the mixed elite technology.
The war needs more employees, and employers in the high-tech sector have begun to reduce the number of employees, the bright spot Now for the Zionist entity and in the future it is women.
The authors of the report said: Let us move to the first quarter of 2024: the number of employees in the field of high-tech, industry and high-tech services was less By 4.7% compared to the corresponding quarter of last year, among men a significant decrease of 9.1% to 271,600 days. Average.
According to trend data, there is actually a 4% increase among women to 156,000 on average.
< /p>
Interestingly, the decline in the number of workers in high-tech industries began as early as June 2023, with the intensification of protests against the government and due to the global trend of downsizing activity in high-tech industries around the world, according to Trend Data" CBS".
The rising female force in the Zionist entity
The downward trend calmed down and stabilized in the first quarter of 2024. Among men, the decline in the number of employees in industries began High-tech, according to trend data, as early as May last year and stabilized at a low level in the first quarter of 2024.
And for women, they continue to strengthen Across all industries, among women in high-tech industries, there has actually been a sustained increase in the number of hires, since April last year throughout the entire period up to March of this year, for which we have the most recently updated data.
  ;
Apparently, due to the increasing power of women, exports of high-tech services in the three months to February of this year increased by 3.8% compared to the corresponding period of the previous year, reaching $13.3 billion.
But in general, workers in high-tech industries are not on the same page: in March, the last known figure, the number of workers in high-tech industries fell to 413,00 after 432,000 in February of this year .
The share of high-tech employees among all workers in the economy fell to 11% after 11.5% in February this year.
Although Although there is a decline in the number of employees and workers in high-tech fields, those remaining actually enjoy a particularly high wage increase.
Salaries in high-tech industries rose by 13.2%. % in February of this year compared to February of last year, reaching 33,964 shekels per month.
The maximum salary in high technology is in the field of scientific research and development with a 21% increase to a salary of 44,670 shekels per month. In computer planning, consulting and other services, there is an increase of 10.6% to a salary of 44,670 NIS. 35,182 NIS per month.

The report indicated that the increase in the level of women’s education in recent decades , who had already left men behind, give their signals even today during the war, and women are equal to each other in almost all areas, except for their low wages due to the rule of a patriarchal society, which decreased by 15% after the normalization of working hours.
  ;
In a poll published by the Israeli Roshnik Research Institute in the Hebrew newspaper Maariv on the occasion of International Women’s Day, commissioned by Witzo, it appears that 70% of the public agrees that the “iron swords” war It proved that women can participate as fighters in both.
And during the chaos of war and in daily life, 82% of women accept this statement and 57% of men, and indeed women have fought and are fighting On the front against the defenseless Palestinians in the occupied Palestinian territories, some of them were killed, and female recruits were captured, and their promotion in the public sector, from the government to the local authorities, is still insufficient.
An increase in the percentage of absenteeism
Data from the Central Bureau of Statistics shows that women fill the ranks of the economy, while the temporary absence of men, of all ages, from the workplace has increased For a full week, during the month of March of this year, by 73% compared to the month of March 2023, naturally. For reserves and other reasons, the absence of women throughout the week increased by 10%.
Women occupy the place of conscripts in the civilian market despite the additional burden they bear in managing family affairs in terms of work outside the home.
The number of Men aged 18 to 54 who were absent from their workplace during the week in March this year were 89% higher than in March last year, and for women there was a 16% increase.
For those over 55, absences from work throughout the week in March were 33% higher for men than in March 2023, while for women there was a 15% drop in absenteeism, meaning that women who were no longer looking after the household had a huge Those over 55 years of age work more outside the home to fill the lost working hours of men.
If we examine the total number of temporary absentees from the workplace according to the Central Statistics Office, this time not only the whole week but also part of the week The number of those temporarily absent increased from about 50,000 to 603,000 men and women. For men, absences increased by 47,500 cases to 286,000 cases. As for women, the increase in absences was small, 2,350 cases to 316,000 cases. In March of this year, the reason for absence was reserve duty among men, accounting for 38% of all absences, after 44% in February. As for women, the percentage of absence due to necessity of reserve reached 4.8%, after 6.2% in February.
The Israeli private sector is fighting for its life
All working hours for all men in the entire Israeli economy reached 88 million hours in March, still less than in March 91 million hours compared to last year, and for women 70.7 million hours compared to 70.2 million hours.
In this war, the number of working hours in industry for women increased in the first quarter of the current year compared to the corresponding quarter of last year by 2.4 % For men, of course, it decreased by 1%.
In transportation, warehousing and warehouse services, the number of working hours for men decreased by 4% and for women by 4.3%, to fill the ranks.
In Israeli administrative and support services, the number of hours for men decreased by 8% and for women an increase of about 12%. In professional, scientific and technical services, which are characteristic of the high-tech industry, the number of working hours for men decreased by 12% while the number of hours worked for women increased by approximately 5%.
In this war, the private sector is fighting for its survival due to the decline in The scope of business activity, while the public sector continues to expand without a sign of stopping.
In private companies, the average number of employees decreased during the three months from December to February of this year Compared to the same period of the previous year by 80,100, a decrease of 3.4% to an average of 2.246 million employees. In the government sector, including hospitals, 17,800 workers were added, an increase of 2.3%. Now we will compare local authorities and hospitals.
The Israeli local authorities are at the top of the scale of the increase in the number of employees with 202 thousand employees, as they are the ones who burden the financial burden on this faltering business sector. the days. The number of local authority employees increased by 10,100 employees, an increase of 5.3%. This is, for example, compared to hospitals that are exposed to enormous burdens due to war and the aging population, with the addition of 2,200 to 95,400 employees, an increase of only 2.4%.
Many institutions depend on Private non-profits on the Israeli government table, i.e. an increase of 8,900 employees, i.e. an increase of 2.9%, and the question is who is at the top of the salary increase in the period referred to here? Salary increase 11.5%!! Compared to an average economic increase of 8.1% and compared to an 8.5% increase in salaries in hospitals where there is a clear female representation, that is, the local authorities are inflated both in the number of employees and in salaries, so what is the wonder that the treasury approves property tax increases or forms of recalculation disguised as increases? A burden on the faltering business sector and families who find it difficult to manage their daily lives.
According to the updated indicators for the month in the Zionist entity? The volume of export orders is expected to decrease by 2.6% in April, and the domestic market in Israel will naturally rise by 1.6%, building on an increase of only 0.9% for May in scented retail trade and as a result of higher prices. Sales volume is expected to rise by 7.9%. %, an increase in orders from suppliers by 5.4%, an increase of 2.9% in the number of employees in hotels, a stagnation in the number of orders from Israelis, and an 86% decrease in the number of orders from tourists.
And in export orders, there was The state of the economy becomes more depressing, and the report’s authors and Zionist experts said: If difficult decisions are not taken, no matter how difficult, to end the damned war that we have lost and which we have lost, and the economy is struggling to withstand, it is no wonder that the Bank of Israel’s indicators of economic activity indicate a slight decline every year. A month in February and in March as well.
These indicators do not bode well, and in general, it is time for a decision. Perhaps we can also consult with women who are doing wonderful things in all fields, women who do not sit still. In the limited war government?
