Israeli media reported on Saturday that the Israeli occupation government, headed by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, in its first month, witnessed a number of events, including Al-Quds operations and large weekly protests.
On Twitter, Israeli journalist Amir Tibon pointed out that during the first month of the Netanyahu government's tenure, Palestinian territories are on the verge of explosion, and Al-Quds operation was the bloodiest since 2008.
Tibon added that the governor of the Bank of "Israel" began to expect an economic crisis, the President of the Supreme Court threatened to resign, and the banks monitored the withdrawal of money from "Israel".
He continued that "Israel" witnessed huge demonstrations in the streets every Saturday, a senior partner in the coalition is forbidden to be a minister, and Knesset member Bezalel Smotrich quarrels with Security Minister Yoav Gallant and Chief of Staff Herzi Halevi.
"This is what governance looks like," Tibon concluded.
Tibon's remarks come a few hours after Israeli media reported that two Israeli settlers were seriously injured in a shooting attack in Silwan, occupied Al-Quds.
On Friday, Israeli occupation police announced that seven settlers were killed and at least 10 others were wounded in the aftermath of a shooting that took place in Nabi Yaqub, occupied Al-Quds.
In addition, Palestinian presidential Spokesperson Nabil Abu Rudeineh said on Thursday that the Palestinian authorities have officially decided to halt 'security' coordination with "Israel" and contact the UN Security Council following the bloody raid in the occupied West Bank city of Jenin which left 10 dead and 20 wounded.
The two Al-Quds operations come at a time when the Israeli occupation is suffering from a severe internal division. Political divisions are escalating in "Israel" between the government and the opposition in light of the exchange of accusations of responsibility for the outbreak of an internal war.
Earlier in the month, Israeli occupation "Justice" Minister Yariv Levin announced a controversial plan to hand more powers to lawmakers in appointing judges and overriding Supreme Court decisions.
Israeli media said that settlers shouted at Israeli occupation Police Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir during his inspection of the location of the first Al-Quds operation, saying: "This happened during your mandate."
The media had previously suggested that Netanyahu's new government will weaken the Israeli occupation army and increase tensions in the occupied West Bank.
