Trump Demands Hamas SURRENDER & Release Hostages for Ceasefire in Gaza as Witkoff meets Netanyahu

Donald Trump has issued a stark ultimatum to Hamas: “Surrender and release the hostages” or face continued starvation in Gaza. Amid mounting criticism of Israel’s war strategy and stalled hostage talks, Trump shifted his tone—demanding Hamas end resistance to stop the humanitarian crisis. As Netanyahu meets U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff, discussions center on reviving negotiations via Qatar and Egypt. With annexation being floated as a fallback, the situation remains tense, and U.S.-backed aid efforts face scrutiny for failing to ease suffering. #TrumpVsHamas #GazaCrisis #HostageTalks #Netanyahu #WitkoffMission #MiddleEastTensions #GazaWar #HumanitarianCrisis #HamasUltimatum #GazaStarvation #TrumpStatement #IsraelHamasWar #AidUnderFire #QatarMediation #USIsraelRelations #BreakingNews #GazaBlockade #GazaFamine #WitkoffInJerusalem #PeaceStalemate #AnnexationThreat #TrumpMiddleEast #HamasResistance #GazaAidFail #USPolicyShift #HostagesInGaza #GazaNegotiations Also Read They Can Take Their Dead Economies Down Together: Donald Trump Slams India, Russia :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/they-can-take-their-dead-economies-down-together-donald-trump-slams-india-russia-7816541.html?ref=DMDesc After Tariffs, Trump Administration Sanctions 6 Indian Companies For Trading With Iran :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/after-tariffs-trump-administration-sanctions-6-indian-companies-for-trading-with-iran-011-7816493.html?ref=DMDesc Maybe, Pakistan Will Sell Oil To India Someday: Trump After Striking Deal With Islamabad :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/maybe-pakistan-will-sell-oil-to-india-someday-trump-after-striking-deal-with-islamabad-011-7816471.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.420~HT.408~

IDF reservist Roi Wasserstein, 24, died by suicide after 300 days serving in a war medical unit. His family accuses the Israeli Defense Ministry of refusing to recognize him as a military casualty. The trauma of evacuating wounded soldiers under fire reportedly haunted him. His death, among a growing number of IDF suicides, has sparked national outrage and renewed calls for mental health reforms and proper veteran care.

Canada’s Hypocrisy Exposed! Secretly supplied weapons to Israel; now plans to recognise Palestine

A shocking new report reveals Canada has secretly supplied weapons to Israel amid the Gaza conflict, contradicting its stated export freeze. Activist researchers traced at least 13 arms-linked flights from Toronto, many via civilian carriers like Air Canada and Lufthansa. Items shipped included F-35 parts, radar gear, and ammunition. Elbit Systems is identified as a major recipient. The exposé surfaces just as PM Mark Carney announces recognition of Palestine, admitting Israeli settlement expansions have rendered negotiations "no longer tenable." #CanadaIsrael #Palestine #ArmsExports #GazaGenocide #CanadianHypocrisy #ElbitSystems #MilitaryLeaks #DoubleStandards #HumanRights #CarneySpeech #WeaponShipments #TorontoFlights #CivilianFlightsUsed #IsraelCanadaTies #ExposeCanada #WarProfiteering #F35Parts #RadarExports #WestBank #MiddleEastCrisis #ActivistReport #GazaUnderAttack #InternationalLaw #DefenceDeals #BreakingNews #CanadaPolitics #CanadianComplicity Also Read France's Recognition of Palestine Could Influence Future Middle East Dynamics :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/france-recognition-state-palestine-middle-east-dynamics-011-7810889.html?ref=DMDesc Israel And Syria Agree To ceasefire: US Ambassador To Turkey :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israel-and-syria-agree-to-ceasefire-us-ambassador-to-turkey-011-7805781.html?ref=DMDesc ‘She Used Me for Money’: Israeli Father’s Struggle to See Daughters After Gokarna Rescue :: https://www.oneindia.com/bengaluru/she-used-me-for-money-israeli-father-s-struggle-to-see-daughters-after-gokarna-rescue-011-7804789.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.420~HT.408~GR.122~

Iran’s SHOCKING demand STUNS Trump | Will Trump bow down & resume Nuclear Talks?

Iran has issued a stunning ultimatum to the U.S., demanding compensation for damages from the recent U.S.-Israel strikes before resuming nuclear talks. Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi blamed Trump’s 2018 JCPOA withdrawal for eroding trust and slammed Washington for using diplomacy as a cover for aggression. Iran insists on real guarantees, rejects U.S. calls for zero enrichment, and warns that rising anti-negotiation sentiment in Tehran could end talks permanently unless America changes course with serious confidence-building measures. #IranNuclearDeal #USIranTensions #JCPOA #AbbasAraghchi #TrumpIran #NuclearTalks #MiddleEastDiplomacy #USForeignPolicy #TehranDemands #IranUltimatum #Geopolitics #NuclearShowdown #SnapbackThreat #USIsraelStrikes #NoZeroEnrichment #DiplomacyCrisis #TalksOnEdge #USMiddleEastPolicy #IranNews #BreakingNews #TrumpEraFallout #BidenPolicy #GlobalSecurity #TrustDeficit #EnrichmentRights Also Read India Advises Its Citizens Against Non-Essential Travel To Iran :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/india-advises-its-citizens-against-non-essential-travel-to-iran-7802657.html?ref=DMDesc Iran To Buy Chinese J-10C Fighter Jets :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/iran-to-buy-chinese-j-10c-fighter-jets-7788123.html?ref=DMDesc Iran’s Uranium Mystery: 400kg Vanishes Without a Trace :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/iran-s-uranium-mystery-400kg-vanishes-without-a-trace-011-7787491.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.194~HT.408~

Pro-Hamas Mob Holds Israeli Cruise Passengers Hostage in Greece? Protesters BLOCK Israelis | Video

Hundreds of Israeli cruise passengers aboard the Mano Maritime–operated Crown Iris found themselves unable to disembark at the Greek island of Syros after a pro-Hamas, pro–Palestinian protest blocked the port. Local demonstrators—estimated at around 150–200—raised Palestinian flags, chanted slogans, and formed a human barrier, prompting Greek authorities and the cruise line to halt disembarkation out of concern for passenger safety. #IsraelisStranded #GreekPortProtest #ProPalestinianProtest #ManoMaritime #SyrosProtest #CruiseShipChaos #IsraelGreeceTension #PalestinianSolidarity #CrownIrisIncident #AntiIsraelProtest #TouristsTrapped #GreekIslandBlockade #IsraelTravelBan #SyrosDemonstration #MaritimeStandoff ~HT.318~PR.152~ED.103~GR.122~

Netanyahu To Resign? 74% of Israelis Back Hostage Deal |Families RAGE as Netanyahu Rejects Ceasefire

As the Israel-Hamas ceasefire deal fails, pressure mounts on the Israeli government. Thousands rallied across Tel Aviv and other cities, demanding action to bring hostages home. The Hostage Forum warned that each day of war strengthens Hamas and endangers both hostages and soldiers. A new poll shows 74% of Israelis—including 60% of Netanyahu’s voters—support a deal. Eli Sharabi, who lost family on October 7, called on Trump to intervene. With around 50 hostages still in Gaza, public support for peace is reaching a breaking point. #IsraelHamasWar #HostageCrisis #CeasefireNow #BringThemHome #TelAvivProtests #HostageDeal #IsraelNews #GazaWar #MiddleEastConflict #October7 #Hamas #Netanyahu #IsraelPolitics #Trump #PeaceTalks #HumanitarianCrisis #Gaza #HostageFamilies #FreeTheHostages #EndTheWar #Rafah #CeasefireDeal #WarInGaza #IsraelCeasefire #IsraelProtests #EliSharabi Also Read Israel's Troop Presence in Gaza Complicates Ceasefire Negotiations with Hamas :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israel-troops-gaza-complicates-truce-talks-011-7796581.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Gets Second Nobel Peace Prize Nod, Courtesy Israeli PM Netanyahu :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-gets-second-nobel-peace-prize-nod-courtesy-israeli-pm-netanyahu-011-7794565.html?ref=DMDesc Israel PM Netanyahu Faces Anger, And Tears In First Visit To Nir Oz Since Oct 7 Gaza Massacre :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/benjamin-netanyahu-visits-nir-oz-kibbutz-near-gaza-strip-011-7791019.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.102~GR.122~

Iran's Nuclear Uranium SURVIVED U.S Bombing, Israelis Admit Failure of U.S OP 'Midnight Hammer' [Video]

Iran's Nuclear Uranium SURVIVED U.S Bombing, Israelis Admit Failure of U.S OP 'Midnight Hammer'

Weeks after Trump boasted of obliterating Iran’s nuclear program, a New York Times report raises major doubts. Israeli officials claim parts of Iran’s 60% enriched uranium stockpile survived U.S. airstrikes in June. The uranium, reportedly buried too deep at Isfahan, may remain intact and inaccessible. While the U.S. says centrifuges were likely destroyed, satellite imagery suggests otherwise. With IAEA inspectors blocked, uncertainty looms. Trump’s “Midnight Hammer” may not have delivered a fatal blow, casting doubt on U.S. intelligence and raising fears about Iran’s nuclear future. #Trump #Iran #NuclearProgram #NYTReport #Isfahan #Uranium #IAEA #MidnightHammer #IranNukes #USMilitary #IsraelIntel #GlobalSecurity #TrumpClaims #EnrichedUranium #IranNuclearCrisis #USStrike #Centrifuges #Fordo #Natanz #WorldNews #MiddleEastTensions #IranUpdate #BunkerBuster #IranNuclear #USIsrael #NuclearThreat #BreakingNews #TrumpVsIran #Geopolitics #SecurityBriefing #IntelligenceLeak 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 Iran To Buy Chinese J-10C Fighter Jets :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/iran-to-buy-chinese-j-10c-fighter-jets-7788123.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~GR.124~

Houthis BLASTS Israel’s Ben Gurion Airport With Hypersonic Missile | Israelis FLEE To Shelters [Video]

Houthis BLASTS Israel’s Ben Gurion Airport With Hypersonic Missile | Israelis FLEE To Shelters

In a significant escalation, Yemen's Houthi rebels have claimed a major missile strike against Israel's primary international gateway, Ben Gurion Airport. Houthi spokesman Yahya Saree announced that a newly unveiled missile, named "Palestine-2," was launched towards Tel Aviv, alleging it successfully halted all air traffic and caused widespread panic. The group, officially known as Ansarallah, declared the attack was an act of solidarity with the Palestinian people and the armed resistance in Gaza, vowing that such strikes will persist until Israel's military offensive and blockade on the territory come to an end. However, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) have presented a conflicting account. According to Israeli military sources, the incoming missile was successfully tracked and intercepted by its advanced air defense systems. While air raid sirens were activated in several regions across Israel as a precautionary measure, the IDF maintains that the threat was neutralized before it could impact the airport's infrastructure or cause any casualties. The incident has drawn a sharp response from Tel Aviv. Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz issued a stern warning to Yemen, threatening "dire consequences" similar to those faced by Tehran if the Houthi attacks continue. This latest strike is part of a sustained campaign by the Houthis, who have reportedly launched over 50 missiles and drones towards Israel since the conflict in Gaza intensified, repeatedly attempting to target critical Israeli infrastructure like Ben Gurion Airport. #YemenStrike #BenGurion #IsraelUnderAttack #HouthiForces #MiddleEastCrisis #MissileStrike #GazaBlockade #Airstrike #BreakingNews #YemenVsIsrael #BenGurionAirport #DroneAttack #HypersonicMissile #AirportStrike #YemenNews #IsraelNews #DefenseAlert #AirRaid #GlobalTensions Also Read Israel PM Netanyahu Faces Anger, And Tears In First Visit To Nir Oz Since Oct 7 Gaza Massacre :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/benjamin-netanyahu-visits-nir-oz-kibbutz-near-gaza-strip-011-7791019.html?ref=DMDesc Iran Casts Doubt on Israel's Ceasefire Commitment, Warns of Retaliation :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/iran-casts-doubt-on-israels-ceasefire-commitment-warns-of-retaliation-011-7786853.html?ref=DMDesc 'You Got Beat To Hell': Donald Trump On Iran's Victory Claim :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/you-got-beat-to-hell-donald-trump-on-irans-victory-claim-7785327.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~GR.124~ED.346~

‘Hamas Can…’ Canada’s BIG Announcement For Palestine |Israel SLAMS Canada For ‘Distorted Campaign’ [Video]

‘Hamas Can…’ Canada’s BIG Announcement For Palestine |Israel SLAMS Canada For ‘Distorted Campaign’

In a seismic shift in foreign policy, Canada has announced it will formally recognise the State of Palestine at the 80th UN General Assembly session in September 2025. Prime Minister Mark Carney declared the move essential to preserve hopes of a two-state solution—calling current efforts "eroded before our eyes." The decision follows similar recognitions by France and the UK, creating a powerful bloc pushing for Palestinian statehood. However, Carney made the recognition conditional—insisting on PA reforms, 2026 elections excluding Hamas, and full demilitarisation. Israel has blasted the decision, calling it a "distorted campaign of international pressure" and warning it legitimises Hamas's October 7 atrocities. Palestinian President Mahmud Abbas hailed the move as “historic.” The tension between international recognition and Israeli resistance could reshape global diplomacy on the conflict. #Canada #Palestine #Israel #UNGeneralAssembly #TwoStateSolution #MarkCarney #PalestinianState #Gaza #Hamas #Abbas #MiddleEast #IsraelPalestine #PeaceProcess #UNGA2025 #France #UK #Ottawa #Jerusalem #Diplomacy #BreakingNews Also Read Far-Right Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir's Visit to Jerusalem Site Stirs Controversy :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/far-right-minister-itamar-ben-gvir-controversial-visit-jerusalem-011-3831673.html?ref=DMDesc Israel's First Reaction On Ireland And Norway Over Recognition Of Palestinian State :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israels-first-reaction-on-ireland-and-norway-over-recognition-of-palestinian-state-3831297.html?ref=DMDesc Biden hails Australia as "anchor to peace and prosperity" in the Pacific :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/biden-hails-australia-as-anchor-to-peace-and-prosperity-in-the-pacific-gen-3667943.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~ED.102~GR.124~
