    The article doesn’t mention anything about BDS, unfortunately. All causes are attributed to ongoing military issues in Palestine and with Hezbollah, and lack of tourism:

    Israel is in a situation where “there is almost no foreign tourism,” the report said, adding that “damage to businesses is all over the country, and almost no sector has been spared.”

    Gee, it’s almost like blatantly and remorselessly committing colonial genocide and reducing your country’s presence on the global stage to lies and covering up war crimes makes people not want to visit your country. Shocked Pikachu face

    I found this an informative read, because we in the West get such biased (pro-Netanyahu, pro-Israel government, pro-Zionism) coverage of what’s going on in Israel
