Tensions in the Middle East escalated as Hamas declared it will not disarm unless a fully sovereign Palestinian state is established with Jerusalem as its capital. This declaration came after U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff claimed Hamas showed willingness to lay down arms—an assertion Hamas quickly rejected. Israel, meanwhile, maintains disarmament as a non-negotiable precondition for any ceasefire deal.
As ceasefire negotiations stall, pressure builds from Western and Arab nations urging Hamas to give up arms. Meanwhile, a shocking video of Israeli hostage Evyatar David emaciated in captivity triggered a fresh wave of outrage. The humanitarian crisis in Gaza deepens, with UN agencies reporting hundreds killed while seeking aid. U.S. envoy Witkoff, currently in Israel, has met with hostage families and criticized partial peace plans. With over 60,000 deaths in Gaza and starvation rising, global calls intensify for an urgent resolution to end the bloodshed.

At least 10 Palestinians were k#lled after Israeli fire targeted civilians near two Gaza aid sites, just as hunger-related deaths surged, with seven dying in 24 hours, including a child. Witnesses say Israeli troops opened fire on crowds near the U.S.-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) site and at the Zikim crossing, days after a top U.S. envoy visited.
The deadly incident follows the deaths of 859 Palestinians near GHF zones since May. Meanwhile, starvation claims more lives as food trucks remain blocked and airdrops prove insufficient. Hostage families fear their loved ones are starving too and demand a deal. As U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff meets families in Tel Aviv, pressure mounts on Israel to negotiate. Airstrikes on shelters and tents continue to k#ll civilians as Gaza plunges deeper into crisis. With 93 children now confirmed dead from malnutrition, the war's humanitarian cost is spiraling into catastrophe.

Outspoken Republican lawmaker Marjorie Taylor Greene has condemned U.S. funding for the Ukraine war, calling it a “complete betrayal” of American taxpayers. Referring to Trump’s 2024 victory, Greene argued that voters had rejected foreign wars, yet Washington continues to finance conflicts in Ukraine and Gaza. She accused Democrats—and some neocon Republicans—of pushing an “America LAST” agenda while warning that such policies will alienate younger voters permanently.
Greene even called Israel’s Gaza offensive a “genocide,” highlighting deep fractures within Trump’s GOP. Despite campaign promises to end the war, Trump recently approved additional military support for Kiev, including Patriot missile systems. The debate exposes growing discontent among Republican ranks about endless foreign interventions and unchecked military spending. Meanwhile, Ukrainian officials praised Trump’s support, calling it a vital deterrent against Russian advances. Greene warned that ignoring these political alarm bells could prove disastrous for U.S. unity and voter trust.
