Protests in Jordan have intensified near the Israeli Embassy in Amman, driven by anger over the conflict in Gaza and perceived complicity of Arab leaders. Demonstrators demand the severance of Jordan's ties with Israel, citing the Wadi Araba Treaty and economic cooperation as points of contention. The protests reflect broader regional discontent with Israeli actions and Western policies, as well as a resurgence of support for Palestinian resistance movements like Hamas. Jordan's government, while maintaining diplomatic relations with Israel, has issued strong condemnations of Israeli conduct. The situation underscores the complex dynamics of Middle Eastern politics and the enduring significance of the Palestinian cause.

| Middle East Conflict
Hamas launched a surprise attack on Israel, overwhelming the Iron Dome with thousands of rockets and armed drones. The article explores how Hamas, under an Israeli blockade since 2007, amassed an advanced arsenal with significant support from Iran, including funding, weapons, and missile training. Despite rocky relations due to regional conflicts, Iran's support for Hamas has been crucial in modernizing its missile capabilities. The article also highlights the role of other regional players and smuggling networks in arming Hamas. Israeli intelligence agencies failed to detect these preparations, raising questions about their effectiveness.

Israel conducted a daring raid in Gaza to rescue four hostages from Hamas, including Noa Argamani, who was taken during the Supernova music festival. The operation, involving IDF helicopter squads, faced heavy resistance and resulted in the death of officer Arnon Zmora. The mission, planned for months, was hailed as a significant success by Israeli leaders, though it also led to numerous Palestinian casualties. The rescue has sparked mixed reactions in Israel, with some celebrating the hostages' return and others criticizing the lack of a ceasefire. International figures, including U.S. President Joe Biden and UN Secretary-General António Guterres, welcomed the hostages' release and called for further efforts to end the conflict.
