Jordan FM joins Paris talks on Gaza
The meeting, hosted at the French Foreign Ministry in Paris, included the committee's chair, Saudi Foreign Minister Prince Faisal bin Farhan Al Saud, Egyptian Foreign Minister Badr Abdelatty, and French Minister for Europe and Foreign Affairs Jean-Noël Barrot.
Discussions focused on international efforts to end the war on Gaza, ensure the unimpeded delivery of humanitarian aid, and strengthen joint action to halt violations by Israeli occupation forces against the Palestinian people and occupied territories—violations deemed contrary to international law and international humanitarian law.
The officials also addressed the need to support peace efforts in the region, including the implementation of the two-state solution in accordance with relevant international resolutions, aiming to secure long-term peace, security, and prosperity.
The meeting further reviewed preparations for the upcoming high-level international conference on the two-state solution, set to be held at the United Nations headquarters in New York this June, under joint chairmanship by Saudi Arabia and France.

Italian politicians targeted in brutal media attack for Palestine support
A brutal political and media assault has been launched against Five Star Movement (M5S) MP Stefania Ascari and her political ally Alessandro Di Battista, two of Italy's most outspoken advocates for Palestinian rights. The attack is being spearheaded by Il Tempo, a right-wing newspaper, which has weaponized its front page to create a full-blown political crisis for the opposition figures. A visual bombshell was seen on the paper's Sunday cover: Headline screaming "ANTISEMITI" ("Antisemites") above a photo of Ascari and Di Battista, provocatively set against a background of six yellow Stars of David. This shocking accusation was designed for maximum impact, immediately framing the politicians with the most toxic label in European politics. Following up on the headline, the full online report laid out the detailed allegations. It claims a video from a conference in Milan links the pair to individuals believed to be "Hamas sympathizers", specifically naming Mohammad Hannoun who was sanctioned by the US Treasury Department for allegedly providing financial support to the resistance movement, Hamas. This coordinated attack appears to be a direct consequence of Ascari and Di Battista's political activism. Ascari, in particular, has a long history in parliament of condemning 'Israeli' government actions and championing the cause of Palestinian statehood. In a defiant response, Onorevole Stefania Ascari provided the following statement directly to Roya News: "Following the numerous defamatory articles published by the newspaper Il Tempo, the latest of which this morning accuses me of anti-Semitism, I have decided to file a complaint demanding that the newspaper answer for its shameful statements about me, clearly made in an attempt to undermine my commitment to fighting the genocide in Gaza. It is clear to me that these misleading attacks are part of a broader strategy aimed at discrediting those who denounce the war crimes and crimes against humanity committed by Netanyahu's terrorist and criminal government. Let me be clear: they will not stop me. I will continue to fearlessly denounce what is happening and defend human rights and the truth, against any attempt at intimidation or delegitimization." View this post on Instagram A post shared by Stefania Ascari (@stefaniaascari3) The newspaper, owned by the powerful right-wing Angelucci family, has seized upon this history, launching a campaign that strategically conflates their pro-Palestinian advocacy with antisemitism and support for Hamas. This comes after years of unapologetic and high-profile advocacy for the Palestinian cause from both politicians. Stefania Ascari has repeatedly used her platform in the Italian Chamber of Deputies to make serious accusations against the 'Israeli' government, accusing it of committing "war crimes" and "genocide" in Gaza, where over 50,000 Palestinians have now been killed by 'Israel' most of whom are women and children, while calling on Italy to formally recognize the state of Palestine. Similarly, Alessandro Di Battista has made his fervent support for Palestine a cornerstone of his public identity, consistently framing the issue within a broader anti-imperialist critique of Western foreign policy in his widely followed speeches and writings.
