US vetoes UN resolution on Gaza ceasefire for not including hostage release
The United States vetoed a UN resolution calling for a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas in Gaza, citing the lack of a condition for the release of hostages. The resolution, supported by 14 of the 15 Security Council members, demanded an immediate and unconditional ceasefire and the release of all hostages. The US, as a permanent member with veto power, blocked the resolution, emphasizing the need for explicit demands for hostage release. Meanwhile, the US Senate rejected Bernie Sanders' attempt to block offensive arms sales to Israel, amid concerns over civilian casualties in Gaza. In Lebanon, a ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hezbollah showed progress, though Israel insists on retaining military action rights.

Qatar says ‘renewed interest’ in Gaza talks, wants unified Arab stance on Syria
Qatar's Foreign Ministry spokesperson Majed al-Ansari announced renewed interest in ceasefire talks between Israel and Hamas, emphasizing the need for concessions from both sides.

The Gulf Cooperation Council is also seeking a cohesive position, despite differing approaches among its members.

What Trump’s Gaza Plan Means for the World
Donald Trump's proposal to take over Gaza and relocate its population has sparked international outrage, with many viewing it as a form of ethnic cleansing. The plan has been rejected by key Middle Eastern countries, including Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and Jordan, who see it as a threat to regional stability and a violation of Palestinian rights. Critics argue that the proposal could incite further violence and terrorism, undermine existing peace agreements, and damage U.S. relations in the region. The plan is seen as part of a broader pattern of U.S. complicity in Israeli policies that disregard Palestinian sovereignty.

Palestinians return to their homes in northern Gaza
Thousands of Palestinians in Gaza, previously seeking refuge in makeshift camps and hospitals, are returning to their devastated homes in the north. This movement follows controversial proposals by Donald Trump to relocate Palestinians to Egypt and Jordan. Despite Israeli accusations against Hamas for violating a truce, the convoy of returning residents, escorted by Hamas fighters, was halted at the Nuseirat camp. The conflict has resulted in significant casualties, with over 47,000 Palestinians, including many women and children, losing their lives. Israel claims to have eliminated over 17,000 Hamas fighters, though evidence is lacking. The ongoing conflict has led to the displacement of approximately 90% of Gaza's 2.3 million residents.

A Fragile Cease-Fire in Gaza
Israel and Hamas have agreed to a temporary ceasefire after over a year of conflict, with a three-stage plan that could lead to a permanent truce. The initial phase involves the release of hostages by Hamas and Palestinian prisoners by Israel, alongside a gradual withdrawal of Israeli troops. The ceasefire's success hinges on further negotiations, with ambiguity in the agreement allowing both sides to claim partial victories. The Trump administration's pressure on Israel played a crucial role in reaching the deal. The ceasefire offers temporary relief to Gazans and Israelis, but its long-term impact on regional dynamics and internal Israeli politics remains uncertain.
