Welcome to The Times of Israel’s Daily Briefing, your 15-minute audio update on what’s happening in Israel, the Middle East, and the Jewish world, from Sunday through Thursday.

Today’s panel comprises editor David Horovitz and health and science reporter Nathan Jeffay, along with host Amanda Borschel-Dan.

Barring any last-minute upsets, Israel’s Knesset is poised to vote in its 36th government this afternoon. What is mean to happen today — and what could still go wrong?

We hear about a historical last-minute government crash from the 1990s which has gone down in history as the “Stinking Maneuver.” Could history repeat itself?

Next, we hear about a blitz of new COVID research, including a promising Israeli oral vaccine, a one-dose shortcut for youth and how to potential beat the cytokine storm

And finally, the future is now was no-needle blood tests that will soon be used in space.

Discussed articles include:

Knesset set to swear in new government, unseating Netanyahu

Who’s who in the Bennett-Lapid government

Bennett said set to praise and thank Netanyahu during speech at swearing-in

Israeli oral COVID vaccine works as booster, animal trial finds

Israeli scientists move closer to averting deadly immune overreaction to COVID

Israelis recommend 1-dose shortcut to herd immunity for vaccine-poor countries

Invented in Israel, no-needle blood test will blast off for testing in space
