"Israeli War Cabinet Divided Over Hostage Release Strategy in Gaza Conflict"
Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant warned that if the war against Hamas ends without the release of hostages in Gaza, they could be held captive for years. Hamas released a video claiming that two hostages were dead, but Israeli officials disputed the claims. Efforts to secure the release of the remaining captives have hit a deadlock, with Hamas demanding a permanent ceasefire and Israel aiming to dismantle the terror group. US President Joe Biden pledged to continue diplomatic efforts to free the hostages, emphasizing the ongoing commitment to their safe return.
Israel rocked by deadly car-ramming attack and escalating violence.
Tensions are high in Israel and Palestine after a car ramming attack in Tel Aviv left an Italian tourist dead and seven others injured. This comes after a shooting in the West Bank that killed two British-Israeli sisters and left their mother in critical condition. The past year has been the deadliest in two decades, with 250 Palestinians and 43 Israelis killed in attacks. The surge in violence was triggered by events in Jerusalem, where Israeli police clashed with Palestinians at the al-Aqsa mosque compound. The situation remains volatile, with Iran watching closely for an opportunity to exploit Israeli weakness.
