Israel's economy minister has changed his position on the proposed $4.2 billion acquisition involving German shipping giant Hapag-Lloyd and Israeli carrier ZIM. The reversal matters because the minister's office holds approval authority over the deal, and his earlier objections had cast doubt on whether the transaction could proceed. Details of what prompted the shift and the conditions attached remain limited.
