EL AL refreshing its fleet? - kind of

Article today in Hebrew Globes saying that El Al is buying 1 or leasing 2 new 787s from Boeing as part of a convoluted loan deal.
I'm having trouble following the intricacies of the deal, as it also involves options of the 737-900ER order.

Then at the end of the article there is a brief mention of negotiations with Boeing and Airbus for replacing and refreshing the entire fleet.
