Non-EU citizens travelling to and from the Schengen area will now have to pass through a new biometric Entry/Exit System (EES), which starts operations from Sunday. The new system removes the requirement to manually stamp passports and instead creates digital records that link a travel document to a person’s identity using biometrics.

TEL AVIV, Israel (AP)

Now, as Israel faces another unprecedented crisis in a war with Iran, Netanyahu appears rejuvenated. With the U.S. lending its support against a threat he has devoted his life to confronting, Netanyahu is demonstrating a resurgent confidence that could signal a new turning point in his lengthy political career.

Even as Iranian missiles pound Israeli cities, Netanyahu, 75, has the chance to salvage his sagging political fortunes and reshape a legacy punctured by Hamas’ attacks, a corruption trial and a history of divisive rule. If he succeeds, it will cement his reputation within Israel as a political wizard who can rise from the ashes.
