Trump Says Gaza Ceasefire Holding as Israeli Strikes Kill Over 100 Palestinians

United States President Donald Trump says the Washington-brokered ceasefire in Gaza is holding, even as Israeli strikes killed more than 100 Palestinians in a short period, including dozens of children. Gaza’s Ministry of Health reported that about 12 hours from Tuesday to Wednesday, at least 104 Palestinians were killed and 253 wounded. The Palestinian Civil Defence in Gaza condemned the attacks as documented crimes and demanded an immediate and comprehensive ceasefire across the Strip.

No Alternative to Trump’s Peace Initiative, Says Palestinian Ambassador Hammouri

The Ambassador of Palestine to Nigeria, Muhannad Hammouri, has declared that there is no alternative to the United States–brokered peace deal between Israel and Hamas, describing the initiative as the only viable path to end the two-year conflict in Gaza. Speaking in an interview with The PUNCH, Hammouri said the peace agreement—initiated by US President Donald Trump—offers the best chance to stop the bloodshed and restore stability in the region. “The peace deal announced by President Trump between Israel and Hamas marked a significant development in the two-year-old conflict,” Hammouri said. “It includes a prisoner-hostage swap and a partial withdrawal of Israeli forces from Gaza.” The deal, known as the Trump Initiative, outlines a 20-point framework featuring a complete ceasefire, the release of Israeli hostages in exchange for Palestinian prisoners, and the phased withdrawal of Israeli troops from Gaza.

Borno’s Kirawa Community Pleads for Soldiers After Boko Haram Attacks

Residents of Kirawa community in Borno State are pleading for the deployment of soldiers after a series of devastating Boko Haram attacks destroyed homes, businesses, and left several people dead. The community, located near the Cameroon border, has suffered three major attacks. The most recent one, last Monday, resulted in two deaths. The terrorists burned down the district head's palace, about 50 houses and shops, and even destroyed heavy road-grading equipment. A resident, Mohammed Abubakar, explained that the absence of Cameroonian Multinational Joint Task Force soldiers, who were dislodged a month ago, has left them vulnerable. He revealed that people were so fearful they had been fleeing to Cameroon to sleep at night before Governor Babagana Zulum mobilized local vigilantes. Other residents, including a mother of nine, Zara Mohammed, echoed the call for a permanent military presence to stop the […]

A Child’s Cry: Nigeria’s Malnutrition Crisis Demands Urgent Action

On a sweltering afternoon in Katsina, Fatima cradles her two-year-old son, Musa, in a crowded therapeutic feeding centre. His frail body, barely clinging to life, tells a story that words cannot. Musa is one of millions of Nigerian children facing the brutal reality of severe acute malnutrition—a condition that makes a child 9–12 times more likely to die than if they were well nourished. But Musa is also a symbol of hope. With timely treatment, he is slowly recovering. His story reminds us that malnutrition is not a death sentence—it is a preventable tragedy. A Nation at Breaking Point According to the March 2025 Cadre Harmonisé food security survey, nearly 31 million Nigerians across 26 states and the FCT face acute food insecurity. Extrapolated nationwide, this number could reach 40 million people—a population larger than many countries. Nigeria now bears […]
