Israel Lifts State of Emergency for Communities Near Gaza

Israel has officially ended the state of emergency for areas near the Gaza border for the first time since the Hamas attack on October 7, 2023. Defense Minister Israel Katz announced the decision on Monday, stating it was based on a recommendation from the Israeli military. The move reflects a "new security reality" in southern Israel, coinciding with a ceasefire that has largely held since October 10. The state of emergency had granted special powers to authorities to maintain public order and ensure the safety of civilians in communities up to 80 kilometers from the Gaza border. This is the first time these restrictions have been lifted in the region in over two years. The same emergency framework was temporarily expanded to all of Israel in June 2025 during a period of heightened tensions with Iran.

US pushes plan to disarm Hamas and rebuild Gaza

United States Vice President JD Vance has emphasized the difficult task ahead in disarming Hamas and rebuilding Gaza. His remarks came during a visit to Israel on Wednesday as Washington worked to reassure its ally about the next steps in a new US-backed ceasefire plan. Vance met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on the second day of his trip, which supports the American plan to end the fighting, secure the release of hostages, and rebuild Gaza. “We have a tough mission — to disarm Hamas and rebuild Gaza to ensure peace and security for Israel and a better future for the people of Gaza,” Vance said. His visit began with the opening of the Civil-Military Coordination Centre in southwest Israel, where US and allied troops will cooperate with Israeli forces to monitor the ceasefire and manage aid deliveries to […]

Trump Warns Hamas as US VP Vance Heads to Bolster Gaza Truce

US President Donald Trump has issued a stark warning to Hamas, threatening to "eradicate" the group if it violates the ceasefire deal with Israel. The warning comes as US Vice President JD Vance travels to the region to reinforce the fragile truce. President Trump stated that while the US has made a deal with Hamas for them to "behave," the alternative would be a swift Israeli military response. "If they're not, we're going to go and we're going to eradicate them," he said. The ceasefire, which began on October 10, has faced challenges. Israel recently conducted strikes in Gaza after accusing Hamas of violating the agreement, an accusation Hamas denies. Despite this, both sides have expressed commitment to the US-brokered deal, and the process of exchanging hostages and prisoners has continued, albeit slowly. Vice President Vance's trip aims to stabilize […]

Israel Strikes Gaza, Accusing Hamas of Ceasefire Violation

Israel has launched air strikes in southern Gaza, accusing Hamas of violating a ceasefire agreement. The Israeli military stated that "terrorists" fired an anti-tank missile and gunfire at its troops in the Rafah area. The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) called this a "blatant violation of the ceasefire" and promised a firm response. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu instructed officials to "act forcefully against terrorist targets." However, Hamas's military wing, the Al-Qassam Brigades, denied any knowledge of clashes in the area. They stated that communication with their fighters there has been cut off since the war resumed earlier this year. A local source reported that the incident began when Hamas fighters clashed with a rival armed group in an area controlled by Israeli forces. This led to an exchange of fire and subsequent Israeli airstrikes. The ceasefire, which is part of a […]

Israel: Rafah Crossing Opening Date for Gaza to Be Set Later

Israel has announced that the date for reopening the Rafah crossing between Gaza and Egypt will be announced later, after necessary preparations are completed with Egyptian authorities. The Israeli defense ministry body COGAT stated that the crossing will only be open for the movement of people and will not be used for humanitarian aid. It emphasized that aid continues to enter Gaza through other designated crossings. The Rafah crossing is a vital gateway for Gaza's connection to the outside world. International organizations have stockpiled aid on the Egyptian side, awaiting permission to transport it into the devastated territory. The European Union has stated it is ready to restart its monitoring mission at the crossing to support the US-brokered ceasefire agreement.

Israel Says One of Bodies Handed Over by Hamas Is Not a Former Hostage

The Israeli military announced Wednesday that one of the bodies handed over by Hamas during recent prisoner exchanges was not among the hostages previously identified as missing or deceased. Following overnight forensic examinations on four sets of remains returned Tuesday, Israeli medical officials concluded that one “does not match any of the hostages,” the army said in a statement. “Hamas is required to make all necessary efforts to return the deceased hostages,” the military warned, emphasizing that full compliance with the terms of the U.S.-brokered truce was expected. Under the ceasefire agreement mediated by U.S. President Donald Trump, Hamas has so far returned 20 surviving Israeli hostages and eight bodies — six Israelis, one Nepalese, and one whose identity remains unknown. Meanwhile, a hospital in Gaza confirmed that it had received the remains of 45 Palestinians handed back by Israel. […]

Hamas Tightens Gaza Control as Trump Vows to Disarm Group

Hamas has launched a sweeping crackdown across Gaza, executing alleged collaborators and reasserting control over the war-ravaged enclave, even as U.S. President Donald Trump vowed to forcibly disarm the militant group if it refuses to lay down its weapons. The Israeli military confirmed Tuesday that the remains of four more hostages had been recovered from Gaza, a day after Hamas handed over the bodies of four others and released the final 20 surviving captives under a U.S.-brokered truce. Hamas released a video showing the street execution of eight blindfolded and kneeling men it labelled “collaborators and outlaws.” The footage surfaced as heavy clashes erupted between Hamas security units and armed Palestinian clans in parts of the territory. In northern Gaza, Israeli troops continued to pull back from Gaza City while Hamas’s black-masked police returned to patrol the streets. The group’s […]

Hamas Hands Over 7 Israeli Hostages to Red Cross as Trump Heads to Gaza Peace Summit

Hamas has handed over seven surviving Israeli hostages to the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), marking the first stage of a major hostage-prisoner exchange under a newly brokered Gaza ceasefire deal. The Israeli military confirmed that a Red Cross convoy had entered northern Gaza on Monday to collect the hostages, in line with the terms of the agreement. The deal, mediated by the United States, Egypt, and Qatar, aims to bring an end to the devastating conflict that erupted following Hamas’s October 7, 2023 attack on Israel.
