Evening Edition: Firsthand Look At Gaza Aid Station

Fox Newsa day ago
The U.S. State Department, just a few months ago, approved $30 million in funding for the 'Gaza Humanitarian Foundation', a sometimes criticized group delivering aid in war-torn Gaza. Since the GHF began its operations in May, the organization says it has partnered with local Palestinian aid workers and non-governmental organizations to deliver nearly 125 million meals to Gazans. The issue of humanitarian aid getting to Palestinians has been a building crisis and has been used politically to place blame on who is actually perpetrating violence against those seeking aid in the war-torn area.
FOX's Eben Brown speaks with Brooke Goldstein, Executive Director and Founder of 'The Lawfare Project', an organization dedicated to protecting the civil and human rights of the Jewish people, and she is also a human rights attorney, author, and award-winning filmmaker, who shares with us what she saw on her visit to an aid station in Gaza run by the 'Gaza Humanitarian Foundation.'

The president has never served in the military and got deferred from Vietnam War draft five times.

Donald Trump declared himself a war hero while lamenting that he does not get enough credit for ordering bombings on Iran. The president, who never served in the military and avoided the Vietnam draft due to a bone spur diagnosis, made the claim while speaking to conservative radio and Fox News host Mark Levin on Tuesday. Trump discussed working with Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to secure the release of hostages held by Palestinian militant group Hamas, praising the Israeli leader—who is currently facing an arrest warrant from the International Criminal Court (ICC) over alleged war crimes—as a 'good man.'

Plans for new Oklahoma County Jail moving forward without full funding amount

OKLAHOMA CITY (KFOR) — Plans to build a new Oklahoma County Jail are moving forward despite the county not having all of the money to fully fund it. In 2022, voters approved $260 million to build a new detention center, but that's only a portion of what it's really going to cost to fully fund the facility. District 3 Commissioner Myles Davidson estimates the project to total nearly $700 million. However, Davidson is hoping taxpayers will step in and help fill that gap at a possible county vote in the Spring, possibly the month of April. Unexpected delays applying pressure to Dec. 2026 timeline for new mental health facility 'I have 100% faith in our voters that they're going to approve anything that we put in front of them to fix this problem once and for all,' Davidson said. It's unclear how this portion of the project, if approved by voters, will be funded, but commissioners are considering many routes. 'We're trying to put that plan together of what that looks like. How much is that going to be? Is it going to be a sales tax? Is it going to be a property tax? Is it going to be some sort of special assessment?' Davidson said. Davidson told News 4 the plan to expedite the process is a good thing, as it should help ease some of the issues happening in the current facility. One of the plans included in the new facility is a CARE Center, also known as the Center for Assessment and Re-Entry. It's a program designed to assess inmates and prepare them for going back into the real world after being released. Lawsuit filed against City of Norman concerning closed library District 1 Commissioner Jason Lowe was not on board with moving forward, voting no. 'We're going to put ourselves in a horrible situation. Right now, we're just moving forward with building this new facility, and we do not have a plan,' Lowe said. Lowe said he acknowledges that the jail needs a new facility and is on board with improving the system; however, he believes starting construction when all of the money isn't there is a risky move. 'Right now, we cannot even fund our current site. Just imagine a situation where the voters reject the additional funding, which is $500 million, and then we're going to have to fund or pay for operational costs for the current jail,' Lowe added. Davidson said they plan to pass the resolution next week and could break ground on the new jail by late September or early October. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

Qatar: Gaza deal agreed by Hamas 'almost identical' to Witkoff's plan

Hamas informed the Egyptian and Qatari mediators that it had agreed to the latest Gaza hostage-ceasefire proposal on Monday. The latest Gaza ceasefire proposal agreed by Hamas is "almost identical" to an earlier plan put forward by US special envoy Steve Witkoff, Qatar's foreign ministry spokesperson said on Tuesday. On Monday, Hamas informed the Egyptian and Qatari mediators that it had agreed to the latest Gaza hostage-ceasefire proposal, a source familiar with the details told The Jerusalem Post. Israel received Hamas's proposal on Monday evening. An Israeli official told the Post that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will consider Hamas's proposal despite it being only a partial deal that doesn't include the release of all the hostages. However, according to sources, Israel's position, which includes the release of all the hostages and other conditions to end the war, has not changed. The proposal would see the release of 10 living Israeli hostages in return for a 60-day ceasefire, and the release of 150 terrorists serving life sentences. The proposal on the table would also see Israel suspend military operations in the Gaza Strip for 60 days and could be seen as a path to reach a comprehensive deal to end the war, an Egyptian official told Reuters. Axios reported that Hamas's response 'aligns 98%' with the proposal by US President Donald Trump's envoy, Steve Witkoff, which Israel had previously agreed to. This was later echoed by senior Hamas official Taher al-Nunu in an interview with Al Jazeera on Sunday, who stated that there is "no clause in the proposal we agreed on related to Hamas's weapons." Earlier, reports emerged that the meeting between Qatari Prime Minister Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim Al Thani, Palestinian factions, the Egyptian intelligence minister, and Hamas representatives 'was positive,' the Qatari Al-Araby TV said on Monday. Egypt, Qatar worked on updated proposal The meeting also 'demonstrated a heightened sense of responsibility and determination to end the war,' Al-Araby TV continued. Qatar's prime minister arrived in Egypt to meet with mediators regarding a potential hostage deal on Monday, sources familiar with the details told the Post. Hamas received an updated ceasefire proposal from Egypt and Qatar during a meeting also attended by representatives from several Palestinian factions, Al-Araby TV reported. This is a developing story. Amichai Stein and Walla contributed to this report. Solve the daily Crossword
