UK condemns Israel's approval of plans for new West Bank settlement to 'erase' idea of Palestinian state
Wednesday, 20 August 2025 () The UK has condemned Israel's approval of plans for a new West Bank settlement, which has been hailed as "erasing" the idea of a Palestinian state by an Israeli minister.
In a dramatic update, the IDF spokesperson announced that Israeli forces have surrounded Gaza City, claiming Hamas has been reduced to a battered guerilla force. With Israeli troops holding the outskirts, the military says Hamas no longer poses an organized threat — signaling a potential turning point in the conflict.

A new video shows an Israeli drone crossing into Lebanon near Haddatha village, signaling potential further strikes on Hezbollah targets. Israel has carried out multiple drone operations, targeting alleged operatives and rocket sites, while critics accuse it of endangering civilians. The campaign aims to enforce the November 2024 ceasefire, demilitarize Hezbollah, and weaken Iran’s regional influence. Diplomatic pressure from the U.S. and France is ongoing, but Hezbollah continues to resist disarmament. Netanyahu’s operations are escalating tensions, destabilizing local governance, and drawing international scrutiny.

In a chilling echo of the October 7 attacks, 18 Hamas fighters launched a brazen assault on an IDF military base, attempting to breach defenses and abduct Israeli soldiers. The fighters reportedly tried to replicate the shock tactics of last year’s attack, triggering a fierce firefight with Israeli forces.
According to early reports, the attackers were heavily armed and sought to seize hostages, but the plot was foiled after a rapid Israeli military response. The IDF confirmed clashes at the base, underscoring ongoing security threats and the high stakes of the conflict.

Hamas has condemned Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu’s “Greater Israel” remarks as “madness” and a threat to regional stability, urging Arab states to cut ties with Israel and back Palestinian resistance. Hamas accused Israel of using settler violence as part of an annexation strategy in the West Bank, vowing continued defiance against occupation. Iran’s Foreign Ministry also slammed the plan, warning it targets territories in Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, and Syria. Netanyahu called the vision a historical and spiritual mission for Israel.

Just a day after Hamas approved a 60-day ceasefire deal, Israel launched fresh strikes across Gaza, killing at least 26 people, including women and children, according to Palestinian sources. The attacks hit displacement tents, food aid centers, and crowds waiting for supplies, sparking fears of a renewed escalation. The ceasefire, which included a partial hostage release in exchange for halting Israeli military expansion, is now in jeopardy. Analysts warn Hamas may retaliate, putting fragile peace efforts at risk once again.
