"Israel's Tech Sector Struggles Amid Gaza War's Economic Impact"

TL;DR Summary
The war in Gaza has taken a toll on Israel's tech sector, causing a labor shortage as thousands of reservists, who are also tech workers, have been called up. The economy has shrunk, and the war is expected to cost about $58 billion. Some foreign investors have been spooked, and early-stage startups are struggling to access needed investment. The war adds to existing concerns about the country's judiciary reform, which has made investors wary. Despite this, tech leaders remain optimistic about the sector's resilience.
