"Palestinian Prime Minister and Cabinet Resign, Paving the Way for New Government Formation"

Palestinian Prime Minister Mohammed Shtayyeh has offered the resignation of his government, paving the way for a new technocratic government under President Mahmoud Abbas, as the United States and Arab allies seek to revitalize the governing body to take on a role in Gaza following the war. Meanwhile, Israeli forces struck targets in Lebanon's Baalbek region, and aid delivery to Gaza has seen a significant reduction in February. The Gaza Health Ministry reports thousands killed and injured since the war began, while the U.S. hopes for a cease-fire agreement in the coming days.
