Syrian, "Israeli" ministers to hold second meeting in Baku: Sources
Syrian Foreign Minister Asaad al-Shibani and "Israeli" Minister for Strategic Affairs Ron Dermer are scheduled to hold a second round of talks in Baku on Thursday, a diplomatic source told Agence France-Presse (AFP) on Wednesday. According to the source, the meeting will focus on 'security issues, particularly in southern Syria,' and will come ahead of al-Shibani's visit to Moscow, also planned for Thursday. This meeting follows an unprecedented round of US-brokered talks in Paris last week between the two ministers. A senior diplomatic source, speaking on condition of anonymity, confirmed that the talks were facilitated by an American envoy. Tensions have been escalating in southern Syria since July 13, when clashes erupted in the Druze-majority province of Suwayda between local armed groups and Bedouin fighters. The violence quickly intensified, drawing in government forces and tribal militias. During the unrest, "Israel" launched airstrikes targeting government sites in Damascus and military positions in Suwayda. The American envoy and Syrian foreign minister are also expected to meet with French Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot in Paris on Friday morning, according to a French Foreign Ministry source. Since the ousting of former President Bashar al-Assad in December, Syria's transitional government has stated that it seeks to avoid conflicts with neighboring countries. A previous Syrian-"Israeli" meeting reportedly took place in Baku on July 12, on the sidelines of a visit by Syria's transitional president, Ahmad al-Sharaa, to Azerbaijan, according to a diplomatic source in Damascus familiar with the discussions.

'Israeli' military finds no evidence Hamas stole UN aid, despite government claims
Despite long-standing claims by the 'Israeli' government that Hamas systematically stole humanitarian aid, 'Israeli' military officials have found no evidence to support this, according to senior military sources. These claims were used as a key justification for restricting aid into Gaza. Military officials told The New York Times that the UN's aid delivery system was largely effective and less vulnerable to Hamas interference than smaller organizations. An internal US report also concluded there was no evidence Hamas stole US-funded aid. With starvation in Gaza at crisis levels caused by 'Israeli' blockade and aggression, 'Israel' now faces growing international pressure to ease restrictions. Over 100 humanitarian groups and several governments, including EU members, have condemned 'Israel's' "drip-feeding" of aid. In response, the 'Israeli' military said it will resume airdrops and ease access along humanitarian corridors. However, aid agencies say current routes are poorly coordinated and dangerous. Over 1,200 Palestinians have been killed while trying to collect aid under the new, privately run US and 'Israel'-backed system. The Palestinian Ministry of Health in Gaza, 104 people were killed and 399 injured in the past 24 hours as a result of 'Israeli' attacks. Among the dead are 60 people who were killed while trying to receive aid, bringing the total number of "death trap martyrs" to 1,239 killed and over 8,152 injured. The Ministry also reported seven new deaths in the past 24 hours from starvation and malnutrition, raising the total number of such deaths to 154, including 89 children. Since October 7, 2023, the total death toll in Gaza has reached 60,138, with 146,269 injuries. From March 18, 2025, to date, 8,970 people have been killed and 34,228 injured.

Mediators deliver 'Israeli' response to Hamas proposal
Media sources revealed Wednesday that mediators have delivered the Israeli Occupation's official response to Hamas' latest proposal, which included several major points of objection. According to the sources, the main objections raised by the occupation and relayed to Hamas include: Opposition to certain provisions related to the redeployment and withdrawal of 'Israeli' forces from areas within the Gaza Strip. Rejection of the proposed exchange of the remains of 'Israeli' soldiers held by the resistance in return for the release of live Palestinian political prisoners from 'Israeli' jails. Firm refusal to fully withdraw from the Salah al-Din (Philadelphi) border corridor and insistence on maintaining 'Israeli' security control over it. These developments come amid ongoing negotiations mediated by Qatar, Egypt, and the United States aimed at reaching a ceasefire agreement in Gaza and securing a prisoner exchange, according to Alaraby TV.
