Palestinian Factions: Gaza Occupation Threats Show Israeli Weakness
Palestinian factions have declared that recent statements and leaks from the Israeli occupation about a possible takeover of the Gaza Strip expose its political and military weakness, according to Palestinian media reports.
The factions stressed that such threats amount to an open declaration of intent to commit genocide and represent a desperate attempt to subdue the Palestinian people and their resistance. They emphasized that Gaza is not 'an empty plot waiting to be filled' but land soaked with the blood of martyrs.
They further accused Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of trying to cover up his political and military defeat by promoting illusions of control. 'Gaza will not be governed from Tel Aviv or any foreign capital, but by the will of its resisting people,' the statement read.
The factions also warned that the occupation is delusional if it believes it can free its captives from the resistance through military force.

Pakistani Ambassador Attends Third Ismailia Mango Festival 2025
Taarek Refaat The Pakistani Ambassador to Egypt Aamer Shaukat was among the prominent foreign envoys who attended the third edition of the Ismailia Mango Festival 2025, an event that blended cultural pride with international diplomacy. The festival, held in the heart of one of Egypt's most fertile governorates, showcased the region's celebrated mango harvest and growing role in global agricultural trade. Governor Akram Mohamed Galal welcomed the diplomatic delegation at the historic Governorate Headquarters on Mohamed Ali Street, alongside Ashraf Sobhi, Egypt's Minister of Youth and Sports, and Mohamed El-Zamlout, Governor of the New Valley. Envoys and consular representatives hailed from countries including Sierra Leone, China, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, the European Union, Norway, Kuwait, Uzbekistan, Latvia, Sweden, India, Malaysia, Japan, the Czech Republic, Indonesia, Turkey, and the Philippines, with the Pakistani Ambassador receiving special acknowledgment during the reception. Also present were Osama Rabie, Chairman of the Suez Canal Authority; Ahmed Essam, Deputy Governor of Ismailia; Mohamed Amer, Director of Ismailia Security; and MP Ahmed Dendash. Governor Galal emphasized Ismailia's agricultural prominence, producing over 720,000 tons of mango annually on nearly 120,000 feddans, representing more than 36% of Egypt's total mango cultivation. 'Our mangoes are exported to 50 countries, including Saudi Arabia, the Gulf, Turkey, and Brazil,' he said, noting exports this year of 26,000 tons of fresh fruit and 55,000 tons of processed products. Ambassadors praised the event as a model for agricultural promotion and cultural exchange, with the Pakistani envoy highlighting Egypt's potential as a key trade partner in tropical fruits. The festival concluded with an invitation from the governor for guests to explore Ismailia's tourist attractions, reinforcing the city's status as a hub for both agriculture and hospitality. read more Gold prices rise, 21 Karat at EGP 3685 NATO's Role in Israeli-Palestinian Conflict US Expresses 'Strong Opposition' to New Turkish Military Operation in Syria Shoukry Meets Director-General of FAO Lavrov: confrontation bet. nuclear powers must be avoided News Iran Summons French Ambassador over Foreign Minister Remarks News Aboul Gheit Condemns Israeli Escalation in West Bank News Greek PM: Athens Plays Key Role in Improving Energy Security in Region News One Person Injured in Explosion at Ukrainian Embassy in Madrid News Israeli-Linked Hadassah Clinic in Moscow Treats Wounded Iranian IRGC Fighters Arts & Culture "Jurassic World Rebirth" Gets Streaming Date News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier News Ayat Khaddoura's Final Video Captures Bombardment of Beit Lahia Business Egyptian Pound Undervalued by 30%, Says Goldman Sachs Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Arts & Culture South Korean Actress Kang Seo-ha Dies at 31 after Cancer Battle Arts & Culture Lebanese Media: Fayrouz Collapses after Death of Ziad Rahbani Sports Get to Know 2025 WWE Evolution Results

Think Tank and Media Assessments of Political and Field Developments in Gaza and Tel Aviv
Mohamed Mahmoud Abdel Wahab Israel's Channel 12 highlighted, in its coverage of decisions by the coalition government in Tel Aviv, that Prime Minister Netanyahu intends to present a plan to the Security Cabinet for gradually occupying the remaining parts of the Gaza Strip. According to the channel, the plan involves occupying Gaza City after evacuating its residents, with the United States establishing new aid distribution centers. The Netanyahu government is reportedly betting that success in occupying Gaza City would pressure Hamas to release its hostages. The Channel 12 reports further indicated that the Security Cabinet, in its upcoming meeting, plans to decide on the proposed plan, which includes launching a military operation lasting 4 to 5 months with the involvement of around six brigades. The reports also noted the Chief of Staff's opposition to the plan, warning of its risks to hostages and its potential to erode the army's capabilities. The channel also emphasized that the plan aims to push Gaza's population southward, effectively encouraging emigration. Meanwhile, some local media outlets reported that Defense Minister Yoav Gallant sent a firm message to the Chief of Staff, stating that political leadership makes the decisions and the military must implement them. Benny Gantz, leader of the National Unity Party, criticized ministers in the coalition for attacking the Chief of Staff, describing their actions as a serious affront to national security. A report by the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace reflected a growing international shift toward recognizing a Palestinian state, driven in part by the ongoing war crimes in Gaza. However, another report released this week by the Royal United Services Institute (RUSI) argued that declarations by France, the UK, and Canada of their intention to recognize Palestine carry diplomatic weight but are unlikely to change conditions on the ground in the short term, especially given the humanitarian crisis and the stance of the Israeli coalition government. The Atlantic Council noted that Israel's failure to present a political vision for the 'day after' the war in Gaza has prompted international efforts to break the deadlock and impose alternative pathways toward a two-state solution. Similarly, the Italian Institute for International Political Studies (ISPI) highlighted a key contradiction: the condition that the Palestinian Authority must undergo reform as a prerequisite for state recognition—despite years of international support—effectively shifts responsibility for the occupation onto the Palestinians rather than ending it. Elsewhere, following the Defense Minister's statement that the army will implement political decisions with determination and professionalism, several media reports have focused on growing divisions between Netanyahu and senior military officials. Sources close to the Prime Minister said he gave Chief of Staff Herzi Halevi the option to resign if he refuses to support the full occupation plan. At the same time, the Israeli army announced the end of the state of emergency declared in October 2023, allowing for the release of thousands of regular soldiers. Some media outlets suggest that the military is opposed to a full-scale ground invasion of Gaza, fearing it would severely undermine its operational readiness. Israeli media have also highlighted the widening gap between political and military leadership, as several far-right ministers continue to push for complete control over Gaza. However, the military remains wary, citing extreme fatigue within the ranks and the risks of a long and costly war. The army is instead promoting an alternative plan focused on controlling strategic corridors such as the Gaza Envelope and the Philadelphi Route. According to Israel Hayom, Chief of Staff Halevi is expected to present the government with the risks of a full-scale occupation, including the extended duration such an operation would require. Meanwhile, legal proceedings against Israeli soldiers abroad are escalating, with around 50 complaints filed against reservists, and investigations underway in 10 countries. Belgium's federal prosecutor has opened an official investigation into alleged war crimes committed by Israeli soldiers. This comes amid mounting accusations that the Israeli government and military are using starvation as a weapon in Gaza, potentially exposing them to international prosecution. The United Nations described Israel's plans to expand military operations in Gaza as 'extremely alarming,' warning of catastrophic consequences for civilians and hostages. Multiple countries, including China and the UK, have called for an immediate ceasefire and unrestricted humanitarian access. Britain has also expressed its readiness to help develop a plan to end the conflict and establish an independent Palestinian state.
