A swimmer is missing following an extremely rare shark attack off the coast of northern Israel about 25 miles north of Tel Aviv. Sharks are known to gather there where warm water is discharged by a local power plant, and especially at this time of year, but they are usually harmless. There have been no recorded fatal shark attacks in waters off Israel since the country was founded in 1948. Below Israelis admire a shark in the same area in 2021.

And last year in Israel a 25-year-old man died from a "brain eating amoeba" after swimming at the beach. In August 2022, a 36-year-old Israeli died of primary amoebic meningoencephalitis. www.timesofisrael.com
Well, if the Gazans can't enjoy the Mediterranean, why should the Likudniks?
