US clears multibillion dollar arms sales to Israel and Saudi Arabia

The United States has approved two major weapons deals worth billions of dollars for Israel and Saudi Arabia at a time of heightened tension with Iran. The State Department authorised a 3.8 billion dollar sale of 30 Apache attack helicopters to Israel, along with a 1.8 billion dollar package of joint light tactical vehicles. It said the deal would help Israel maintain a strong self defence capability and is consistent with long standing US commitments to its security. Washington already supplies Israel with billions of dollars in military aid each year. The latest approvals come as Israel observes a fragile US backed ceasefire in Gaza after more than two years of war with Hamas. The US has also approved a 9 billion dollar sale of 730 Patriot missiles to Saudi Arabia. The system is designed to defend against incoming aerial […]

Israeli Parliament Moves to Annex Occupied West Bank Despite US Warning

Two controversial bills pushing for the annexation of the occupied West Bank narrowly advanced through Israel’s parliament, the Knesset, late Tuesday night, drawing sharp criticism from both the United States and Israel’s own leadership. The move has once again intensified debate over Israel’s long-standing occupation of Palestinian territories and its implications for regional stability. US President Donald Trump responded tersely to the development, saying, “Israel is not going to do anything with the West Bank.” His vice president, JD Vance, who is currently in Israel to reinforce the US-brokered Gaza ceasefire, went further, calling the vote “weird” and admitting that he found it “personally insulting.” The occupied West Bank, along with East Jerusalem and the Gaza Strip, has been under Israeli military control since 1967. Over the decades, Israel has established hundreds of settlements in the area—illegal under international law […]

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. […]

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. According […]

Trump to Press Netanyahu on Gaza Peace Deal at White House

US President Donald Trump will meet Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the White House on Monday for talks focused on finalizing a proposed peace plan for Gaza. Trump has claimed that a deal to end the nearly two-year conflict—free hostages, and disarm Hamas—is close to completion following his discussions with Arab leaders last week. On Sunday, he posted on Despite Trump’s optimism, Netanyahu has shown little sign of compromise. In a recent UN address, he pledged to “finish the job” against Hamas and rejected the establishment of a Palestinian state, even as Western nations push for one. He has also pressed ahead with Israel’s military campaign in Gaza City, displacing hundreds of thousands. This will be Netanyahu’s fourth White House visit since Trump returned to office in January. While Trump has long been a close ally, he has recently […]

UN investigators accuse Israel of ‘genocide’ in Gaza war

The United Nations Independent International Commission of Inquiry (COI) has accused Israel of committing “genocide” in Gaza, alleging that the military campaign was aimed at “destroying the Palestinians.” Commission chief Navi Pillay, a former UN human rights chief and judge, told AFP that “genocide is occurring in Gaza and is continuing to occur,” stressing that “the responsibility lies with the State of Israel.” The COI’s latest report, released Tuesday, said Israeli authorities and forces have since October 2023 carried out four of the five genocidal acts listed under the 1948 Genocide Convention, including: Killing members of the group Inflicting serious bodily and mental harm Imposing life conditions calculated to bring about destruction Measures intended to prevent births The report directly named Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, President Isaac Herzog, and former defence minister Yoav Gallant, accusing them of incitement to genocide […]

Israeli Strike in Qatar Threatens Gaza Ceasefire Talks — UN

The United Nations has warned that Israel’s strike in Doha, Qatar, has opened a dangerous new chapter in the Gaza conflict, with serious implications for regional stability and ongoing ceasefire negotiations. Rosemary DiCarlo, UN Under-Secretary-General for Political and Peacebuilding Affairs, told the Security Council on Thursday that the world was “shocked” by the attack, which reportedly targeted individuals gathered to discuss the latest U.S.-backed proposal for a ceasefire and hostage release deal in Gaza. “The sovereignty and territorial integrity of any country, including Qatar — a valued partner in advancing peacemaking and conflict resolution — must be respected,” DiCarlo said. She stressed that Qatar, alongside Egypt and the United States, had been playing a pivotal role in brokering a truce, adding: “We are deeply grateful for Qatar’s steadfast commitment and constructive diplomacy. All parties must act to preserve these efforts.” […]

Hamas Accepts Gaza Ceasefire Plan Amid Hostage Deal Talks

In a significant development in the ongoing Gaza conflict, Hamas has agreed to the latest ceasefire and hostage release proposal put forward by regional mediators Egypt and Qatar. The deal, based on a framework crafted by U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff, could mark the most serious step toward de-escalation in months of stalled negotiations. The Two-Stage Proposal According to a Palestinian official involved in the talks, the plan is structured as a two-stage agreement. Hamas would release roughly half of the 50 remaining Israeli hostages, believed to include around 20 still alive, over the course of a 60-day truce. During this period, negotiators would work toward securing a permanent ceasefire and paving the way for a gradual withdrawal of Israeli troops from Gaza. While Hamas has publicly signaled approval of the plan, Israeli officials have not yet commented. Israeli Public Pressure […]
