Hamas Warns against Blocking Humanitarian Aids to Gaza, Al-Qassam Releases Footage of Shujaia Ambush

Al Manar15-05-2025

Hamas Movement issued on Thursday a statement which affirms that, as part of its commitment to alleviating the suffering of the Palestinian people by halting the (Zionist) aggression and opening the crossings for the entry of humanitarian aid, the positive initiative of releasing captured soldier Edan Alexander came ahead of US President's visit to the region.
'We expect, based on the understandings reached with the American side, and with the knowledge of the mediators, that humanitarian aid should have entered the Gaza Strip immediately, a call been made for a permanent ceasefire, and that comprehensive negotiations would have been held on all issues to achieve security and stability in the region, a goal we aspire to achieve.'
However, failure to achieve these steps, especially the entry of humanitarian aid to our people, will cast a negative effect over any efforts to complete negotiations on the prisoner exchange process, Hamas warned.
Al-Qassam Brigades, Hamas military wing, released a video to show the ambush and clash with a Zionist occupation force in Shujaia neighborhood, northern Gaza on April 25, 2025. The operation left two Zionist soldiers dead and others injured.

Aoun reassures merchants: Reforms underway, no challenge is insurmountable

President of the Republic Joseph Aoun emphasized the state's firm commitment to implementing structural reforms, combating corruption, and reinforcing the rule of law during a meeting with a delegation from the Beirut Merchants Association. He underlined the central role of the judiciary in restoring confidence and confirmed that reform tracks have already begun. Addressing economic concerns, Aoun acknowledged the hardship faced by the commercial sector and broader population but stressed that recovery requires time and collective effort. 'The train is now on the right track,' he said, calling on all sectors — including the commercial — to contribute to national recovery. Moreover, the President praised the resilience of Lebanese merchants, urging solidarity and perseverance: 'There is no such thing as impossible. The road is difficult, but we can overcome it.' Aoun also highlighted progress in security, reaffirming the military's role in asserting state authority and efforts to resolve arms issues in Palestinian camps through coordination with President Mahmoud Abbas.

UNRWA: Israeli-US backed aid distribution model in Gaza ‘putting lives at risk'

The United Nations agency for Palestinian refugees (UNRWA) has called the aid distribution model 'a distraction from the ongoing atrocities and a waste of resources' in a post on X. 'The humanitarian community in Gaza, including UNRWA, is ready and has the experience and expertise to reach people in need', it said, adding that Israel 'must lift the siege and allow us safe and unhindered access to bring in aid at scale and distribute it safely'.

Trump says China deal 'done', Beijing to supply rare earths

by Naharnet Newsdesk 11 June 2025, 15:49 President Donald Trump announced Wednesday that the United States will get magnets and rare earth minerals from China under a new trade deal and that tariffs on Chinese goods will rise to 55%. In return, Trump said, the U.S. will provide China "what was agreed to," including allowing Chinese students to attend American colleges and universities. The Republican president had recently begun to clamp down on the presence of Chinese nationals on U.S. college campuses. The new 55% tariff rate would mark a meaningful increase from the 30% levy set in Switzerland during talks in May. "OUR DEAL WITH CHINA IS DONE, SUBJECT TO FINAL APPROVAL WITH PRESIDENT XI AND ME.," Trump wrote Wednesday on his social media site. He said full magnets and any necessary rare earths will be supplied up front by China. "WE ARE GETTING A TOTAL OF 55% TARIFFS, CHINA IS GETTING 10%. RELATIONSHIP IS EXCELLENT!" Trump wrote. Senior U.S. and Chinese negotiators announced late Tuesday in London that they had agreed on a framework to get their trade negotiations back on track after a series of disputes that threatened to derail them. The announcement came at the end of two days of talks in the British capital that wrapped up late Tuesday. It came as an international rights group said that several global brands are among dozens of companies at risk of using forced labor through their Chinese supply chains because they use critical minerals or buy minerals-based products sourced from the far-western Xinjiang region of China. The report by the Netherlands-based Global Rights Compliance says companies including Avon, Walmart, Nescafe, Coca-Cola and paint supplier Sherwin-Williams may be linked to titanium sourced from Xinjiang, where rights groups allege the Chinese government runs coercive labor practices targeting predominantly Muslim Uyghurs and other Turkic minorities. The report found 77 Chinese suppliers in the titanium, lithium, beryllium and magnesium industries operating in Xinjiang. It said the suppliers are at risk of participating in the Chinese government's "labor transfer programs," in which Uyghurs are forced to work in factories as part of a long-standing campaign of assimilation and mass detention. Asked about the report, the Chinese Foreign Ministry said that "no one has ever been forcibly transferred in China's Xinjiang under work programs." The named companies didn't immediately comment on the report.
