PLO says Israel seeks to build 2,339 illegal settlement units in West Bank
Israel plans to build 2,339 settlement units across the occupied West Bank, Al Jazeera reported, citing a statement by the Palestine Liberation Organisation's National Office for the Defence of Land and Resistance of Settlement. The report said 1,352 of the units will be constructed in Qalqilya, 430 units in northeast Ramallah and northwest of the occupied East Jerusalem, 407 units in Bethlehem, and 150 units in the west of Ramallah. The plan also includes the establishment of the 'Samaria National Park' in the Palestinian town of Sebastia, north of Nablus. The International Court of Justice (ICJ) ruled in July 2024 that Israeli settlements in the West Bank are illegal under international law.

Exclusive: Gaza talks at risk after Israel refuses to withdraw from Rafah
Hamas negotiators are increasingly sceptical that a Gaza ceasefire agreement with Israel could be reached in the current round of talks in Doha, Middle East Eye has learned. Sources close to Palestinian negotiators said talks remain deadlocked over at least two of four key issues. The first is the extent of the proposed Israeli withdrawal from the Gaza Strip during the 60-day truce. The second is the method of aid distribution. The United States has reportedly proposed postponing discussions on these two points and instead focusing on the names of Palestinian prisoners to be released by Israel in exchange for the remaining Israeli captives. However, Palestinian negotiators believe this approach is a trap.

Israeli arms giant Rafael features Gaza strike in promotional video for kamikaze drone
Israeli weapons company Rafael has released a promotional video showing its drone system, Firefly, killing a person in Gaza. The video shows the Firefly kamikaze drone hovering over a neighbourhood, identifying a person walking down the street alone before targeting him. "We mark two years since SPIKE FIREFLY was first operationally deployed-ushering in a new era of precision for the tactical fighting forces," the Rafael said in a post on X. Open-source analyst Anno Nemo geolocated the footage to the Al-Tawam area of northern Gaza. "Based on 2 Google Earth satellite images the video appears to have been taken between 4 June 2024 and 1 December 2024," Anno Nemo said, adding that possible changes are visible in the area on Sentinel satellite imagery from November 2024.
