Hamas CELEBRATES BRICS Statement SLAMMING Israel’s ‘GENOCIDAL’ WAR in Gaza | Backs Ceasefire Call [Video]

Hamas CELEBRATES BRICS Statement SLAMMING Israel’s ‘GENOCIDAL’ WAR in Gaza | Backs Ceasefire Call

Hamas welcomed the BRICS summit statement demanding an immediate ceasefire in Gaza and full Israeli withdrawal. The BRICS communiqué accused Israel of using starvation as a weapon of war and condemned its ongoing military siege. With over 57,400 Palestinians killed, BRICS backed Palestinian statehood with East Jerusalem as its capital. Hamas urged BRICS nations-including China, Russia, and South Africa-to intensify global pressure on Israel’s blockade and occupation. The group also reaffirmed support for UNRWA and denounced aid politicization in Gaza. #GazaUnderSiege #BRICSSummit #FreePalestine #StopTheWar #GazaCeasefire #HamasStatement #EndTheOccupation #PalestinianRights #IsraelWarCrimes #GazaBlockade #StarvationAsWeapon #UNRWA #BRICSForPalestine #GazaCrisis #EastJerusalem #GazaDeathToll #HumanitarianDisaster #BRICS2025 #GazaResistance #WarOnCivilians #PalestineWillBeFree #MiddleEastCrisis #InternationalPressure #GlobalSolidarity #JusticeForGaza #CeasefireNow #BRICSDiplomacy Also Read BRICS Leaders Push For India And Brazil's Inclusion As Permanent Members Of UN Security Council :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/brics-leaders-push-for-india-and-brazils-inclusion-as-permanent-members-of-un-security-council-7794021.html?ref=DMDesc There Should Be No Hesitation In Imposing Sanctions Against Terrorists: PM Modi At BRICS :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/there-should-be-no-hesitation-in-imposing-sanctions-against-terrorists-pm-modi-at-brics-7793415.html?ref=DMDesc Hamas Leader Muhammad Sinwar Killed In Israel's Air Strike :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/hamas-leader-muhammad-sinwar-killed-in-israels-air-strike-4156915.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.194~GR.124~

Israel and Syria Uniting to ISOLATE Iran? Two BIG Reasons Behind Al-Shara's Tectonic Shift Explained [Video]

Israel and Syria Uniting to ISOLATE Iran? Two BIG Reasons Behind Al-Shara's Tectonic Shift Explained

In a stunning diplomatic development, officials from Israel and Syria are holding quiet, backchannel talks for the first time in over a decade. This move comes after months of intense regional conflict involving Iran-backed groups like Hamas and Hezbollah, pushing both Jerusalem and Damascus to reassess their long-standing enmity. The United States, with backing from Donald Trump and his envoy Tom Barrack Jr., is mediating the effort, aiming to cool tensions along the volatile Golan Heights border. At the center of this pivot is Syria's new president, Ahmed al-Shara, who has signaled a dramatic shift from the hardline rejectionism of the Bashar al-Assad era. The primary driver for this newfound diplomacy is a shared strategic goal: limiting the influence of Iran and its proxies in southern Syria. For Israel, this is a matter of national security; for al-Shara's new government, it's a path toward securing sovereignty, gaining Western legitimacy, and obtaining much-needed economic relief. While full normalization seems distant, both sides are exploring a revival of the 1974 U.N. Disengagement Agreement, which previously ensured stability in the Golan Heights. In a significant gesture, the Trump administration has lifted the terrorist designation on al-Shara's former group, and Israeli leaders have softened their tone, describing him as someone they could potentially work with. However, analysts remain cautious, pointing to al-Shara’s past and the lack of public support for peace in Syria as major hurdles. Despite the challenges, the fact that these talks are happening at all represents a potential seismic shift in Middle East politics. This report breaks down the key players, the high stakes, and what this surprising diplomacy could mean for the future of the region. #IsraelSyriaTalks #MiddleEast #BreakingNews #WorldNews #Israel #Syria #DonaldTrump #Iran #OneindiaNews #AhmedAlShara,

‘ENEMIES OF GOD!’| 100 Muslims Scholars Declare Trump, Netanyahu ‘CORRUPTERS on Earth',Back Khamenei

In a scathing joint statement, 100 prominent Muslim scholars from over 25 countries declared Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu as “enemies waging war against God.” The scholars accused the two leaders of bloodshed, corruption, and crimes against humanity, condemning U.S.-Israeli policies on Palestine. The declaration brands Israel a “cancerous entity” and forbids normalization. Citing attacks on Muslim groups and the Jerusalem embassy move, the statement calls for global Muslim unity and unwavering resistance until Palestine is fully liberated. #Trump #Netanyahu #IslamicScholars #Palestine #MiddleEastCrisis #Jerusalem #AntiZionism #IsraelOccupation #MuslimUnity #Islamophobia #CrimesAgainstHumanity #FreePalestine #Resistance #IslamicWorld #GazaCrisis #UShypocrisy #Zionism #UmmahUnite #IslamicLaw #ScholarsSpeakOut #TrumpJerusalem #NetanyahuWarCrimes #USIsraelAlliance #ReligiousDeclaration #BreakingNews Also Read Trump Condemns Brazilian Authorities for Alleged Witch Hunt Against Bolsonaro :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-criticises-brazilian-authorities-witch-hunt-bolsonaro-011-7794385.html?ref=DMDesc Israel To Send Ceasefire Team To Qatar A Day Before Trump-Netanyahu Meet :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israel-to-send-ceasefire-team-to-qatar-a-day-before-trump-netanyahu-meet-7792721.html?ref=DMDesc ‘Great American Pilots Very Upset’: Trump Flips Again on Iran Strike Damage :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-debates-us-strikes-impact-on-iran-nuclear-programme-011-7783495.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.346~HT.318~GR.125~

France Breaks Ranks with U.S & Israel, Officially Recognizes Palestinian State-Macron’s Bold Move

French President Emmanuel Macron has announced that France will formally recognize the State of Palestine at the upcoming UN General Assembly, a move that has ignited fierce backlash from the United States and Israel. As Macron pushes for an urgent end to the war in Gaza and calls for peace, Hamas praises France’s decision as a “positive step” and urges other nations to follow suit. Meanwhile, Israel threatens to annex the West Bank, condemning France’s shift as a direct aid to terrorism. This bold stance by Europe’s most powerful nation marks a dramatic escalation in the international conflict surrounding Gaza, with global pressure mounting amid a worsening humanitarian crisis.

Hamas Winning Gaza: 5 IDF Soldiers Chose To Die Against Al-Qassam | Netanyahu Under Fire [Video]

Hamas Winning Gaza: 5 IDF Soldiers Chose To Die Against Al-Qassam | Netanyahu Under Fire

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) are witnessing a disturbing surge in suicides, with five soldiers taking their own lives in just two weeks. This includes a 19-year-old Norwegian immigrant and a Golani Brigade serviceman, both victims of psychological trauma tied to Israel’s prolonged war in Gaza and its broader military campaigns across seven active fronts. In 2024 alone, over 20 IDF suicides have been confirmed, primarily among active-duty reservists recently returned from intense combat. Army officials blame post-traumatic stress and long deployments for the spike. Opposition leaders are calling it a silent crisis, with thousands of soldiers withdrawing from combat roles due to mental breakdowns. Meanwhile, official numbers may underreport the true toll, as additional non-combat veterans’ deaths remain uncounted. With Israel’s military stretched thin across Gaza, Lebanon, Syria, Iran, Iraq, Yemen, and the West Bank, the cost is not only strategic—but deeply human. #Israel #IDF #GazaWar #SuicideCrisis #CombatTrauma #PTSD #MiddleEastConflict #IsraelNews #SoldierSuicides #ReservistCrisis #MentalHealth #WarOnSevenFronts #Gaza #HamasAttack #WarCasualties #TraumaOfWar #BreakingNews #IsraelPalestine #MilitaryMentalHealth #IDFSuicides ~ED.420~GR.125~HT.96~
