Blinken Puts Pressure on Hamas for Truce Deal: Will U.S Proposal End Gaza Conflict or Escalate More?
US Secretary of State Antony Blinken is ramping up pressure on Hamas to accept a new proposal aimed at resolving the Gaza conflict.
In a recent press briefing from Tel Aviv, Blinken described his talks with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu as "very constructive," with Netanyahu endorsing the latest US bridging proposal.
But Hamas is pushing back, raising concerns and demanding a clear implementation mechanism.
Whatâs at stake for the region and international diplomacy?
Watch now to understand the latest developments and what could come next.
Donald Trump has issued a stark ultimatum to Hamas: âSurrender and release the hostagesâ or face continued starvation in Gaza. Amid mounting criticism of Israelâs war strategy and stalled hostage talks, Trump shifted his toneâdemanding 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.

A shadow minister has said the government's recognition of Palestine as an independent state is unlikely to happen. Keir Starmer said he would recognise the state if Hamas surrendered power. Shadow chancellor of Duchy of Lancaster Alex Burghart said: "Hamas is not about to lay down it's weapons and go quietly into the night. I just think this is nonsense really." Report by Kennedyl.

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 solutionâcalling 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 conditionalâinsisting 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 âhistoric.â The tension between international recognition and Israeli resistance could reshape global diplomacy on the conflict.

A shocking new report claims Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is secretly negotiating with at least five countries to relocate thousands of Palestinians from Gaza under a so-called âvoluntary migrationâ plan. The controversial strategy, allegedly backed by far-right minister Itamar Ben-Gvir, is being framed by Israeli officials as a humanitarian solutionâbut critics warn it amounts to ethnic cleansing.

In a bold and controversial move, U.S. President Donald Trump is sending his special envoy Steve Witkoff and Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee into Gaza on August 1 to inspect humanitarian aid distribution. The White House says the visit aims to secure better access to food and supplies for Gazan civilians and to witness the devastation firsthand. The decision comes amid mounting international criticism and deepening conflict in the region. Will this trip change the U.S. approach to the crisis?

President Donald Trump has admitted that new U.S. sanctions on Russia might not have any effect on Vladimir Putin â but is moving ahead with them anyway. Trump slashed the peace window for a Ukraine deal from 50 days to just 10, warning of brutal economic penalties if Moscow doesn't comply. These include up to 100% tariffs and potential secondary sanctions on countries doing business with Russia.
While Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov downplayed the threats, saying Russia has developed âsanctions immunity,â Trumpâs frustration is mounting. The president also announced that special envoy Steve Witkoff will soon travel to Russia following visits to Israel and Gaza. Trumpâs acting UN envoy confirmed a ceasefire deadline: August 8. Despite over 10,000 sanctions already in place since the 2014 Ukraine crisis, Putin maintains the West has failed to break Russiaâs economy. The standoff is reaching a boiling point.

Slovenia has made history as the first EU country to impose a full ban on arms imports, exports, and transit to Israel amid the escalating humanitarian crisis in Gaza. Prime Minister Robert Golob boldly declared that responsible nations must actâeven if it means stepping ahead of others to uphold international law. This move exposes the European Unionâs failure to take concrete measures against Israelâs blockade and ongoing war crimes, which have killed over 60,000 Palestinians, mostly women and children. As Slovenia plans further sanctions, will other EU countries follow and challenge Israelâs brutal military campaign? Dive into this explosive shift in European policy and the mounting pressure on Israelâs government.

The U.S. State Department has imposed visa sanctions on senior officials from the Palestinian Authority and the PLO, citing violations of UN resolutions and continued support for terrorism. This comes as the U.K. and France announce plans to recognize Palestinian statehood at the upcoming UN General Assembly, escalating tensions across the Middle East. Israeli leadership has condemned these moves, calling them dangerous to peace and regional stability. Here's a breakdown of the diplomatic storm now brewing.

Yemenâs Armed Forces have delivered a bold message to Israel and the world by penetrating Tel Avivâs missile shield with explosive-laden drones that struck three high-value targets â including a sensitive Israeli site in Jaffa, military infrastructure in Ashkelon, and a strategic zone in the Negev Desert.
Brigadier General Yahya Saree confirmed the success of the operations and warned of continued strikes until the siege and genocide in Gaza end. The strikes form part of Yemenâs relentless campaign of solidarity with Palestine, which has also involved firing advanced ballistic and hypersonic missiles. Meanwhile, Yemen has issued a clarion call to Muslims and Arabs worldwide to rise, protest, and break the Gaza blockade. The message is clear â Gazaâs resistance is not alone, and regional escalation is mounting fast. Is a broader conflict in the Middle East now inevitable?

Hamas has fiercely condemned Israelâs limited humanitarian airdrops in Gaza, branding them a âdeceptiveâ ploy to manage â not end â starvation in the besieged enclave. The Palestinian group accused Tel Aviv of using such aid theatrics to mask ongoing war crimes, including the blockade that has led to over 122 starvation deaths â 83 of them children. As the food crisis deepens, with over 100,000 children at risk, Gazaâs Government Media Office has warned of a catastrophic famine.
Meanwhile, therapeutic food supplies are almost exhausted, threatening thousands more. Australiaâs Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has declared the Israeli siege in violation of international law. At least 11 displaced people were injured after aid parcels fell on tents. Since October 7, 2023, over 59,733 Palestinians â mostly women and children â have been killed in Gaza, with 144,477 injured. The siege, starvation, and blockade continue â and so does the international outcry.

Thousands of Israelis are marching through Tel Aviv in one of the largest anti-war protests since the conflict began, demanding an immediate ceasefire in Gaza and the safe return of Israeli hostages still held in the Palestinian territory. Protesters rallied near the U.S. Embassy, calling on global powers to pressure Netanyahuâs government to end what many now call a "war without a plan." With chants against war crimes and signs blaming the Israeli leadership, this mass mobilization reflects growing unrest inside Israel itself. Is this the turning point the world has been waiting for?

Saudi Arabia has signed over $6 billion in investment deals with Syria, signaling strong support for President Al-Sharaa amid ongoing unrest. The agreements cover energy, infrastructure, real estate, and agriculture, aiming to revive Syriaâs war-torn economy and create up to 200,000 jobs. Analysts see this as a major geopolitical shiftâand a blow to Israelâs regional influenceâas Tel Aviv has actively targeted Syrian positions during its civil war. The move comes after Saudi and Qatari efforts cleared Syriaâs World Bank debt, unlocking fresh international lending.
