Hamas and the Destruction of Gaza
Member of the Egyptian Writers Union
Ibrahim Dalalsha, head of the Horizon Center for Studies in Ramallah, confirmed to Sky News Arabia that Hamas has plunged the people of Gaza into a humanitarian catastrophe and is unable to offer solutions after losing almost complete control of the Gaza Strip. This is in addition to the killing and wounding of tens of thousands of residents and the complete destruction of the Gaza Strip. The Zionist entity's massacres did not stop there, despite the ceasefire and prisoner exchange agreement. Cairo News Channel confirmed in a breaking news report that the occupation is destroying residential areas west of the Palestinian city of Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip. The occupation forces continue to launch hundreds of airstrikes and artillery shelling, committing crimes across the Strip and committing bloody massacres against civilians.
Despite thousands of demonstrations inside the Gaza Strip demanding that Hamas leave to preserve the lives of civilians and thwart the displacement plan recently announced by Trump to evacuate the Gaza Strip and annex it to Israel, Hamas is evasive and manipulating the lives and resources of the Strip's residents. A few days ago, the government media office in the Gaza Strip warned that the city of Rafah, in the southern Gaza Strip, was being subjected to systematic genocide and ethnic cleansing under intense Israeli bombardment. The statement added: "The Israeli occupation has turned Rafah Governorate into a closed military operations zone, completely isolating it from the rest of the Gaza Strip, considering it a complete red zone. It continues to commit horrific massacres against defenseless civilians, and has caused systematic and comprehensive destruction of infrastructure, vital facilities, and residential homes, rendering the city uninhabitable." In the same context, Netanyahu said that all we seek is to enable the residents of Gaza to have the option of leaving for other countries. Trump praised Netanyahu's words, saying that "the Gaza Strip has become like a death trap, an extremely dangerous place that will take years to rebuild." He said that he would call Gaza a "freedom zone" after expelling its residents. I believe this is a Zionist-American plot in which Hamas foolishly participated. As a Muslim Brotherhood movement whose goal is to seize the presidency in Palestine, it is primarily responsible for this devastation, destruction, and genocide, and it must immediately leave Gaza. Perhaps we can glimpse this on the horizon. The nearest solution will alleviate the suffering of a people who have been under occupation since 1967.

Trump Orders Halt to Military Coordination with Israel Over Fears of Strike on Iran, Says Israeli Media
Ahmed Emam Former U.S. President Donald Trump has reportedly ordered a suspension of military coordination with Israel over concerns that a potential Israeli strike on Iran's nuclear facilities could jeopardize ongoing diplomatic efforts with Tehran, according to Israeli Channel 12. The Hebrew-language report claims that Trump recently held a tense phone call with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, during which he warned him "sharply" against launching a unilateral attack on Iran. Trump is said to have stressed that such a move would be ill-timed and could undermine chances of reaching a strong nuclear agreement that would also serve Israel's security interests. Channel 12 reported that despite U.S. caution, Israel has continued preparations for a potential solo strike on Iranian nuclear sites. This prompted the Trump administration to intervene by freezing all forms of joint military coordination related to the matter. According to the report, Trump instructed the U.S. military to halt any cooperation with Israel concerning strikes on Iran, particularly in the realm of intelligence and operational planning. The report further highlights that Israel relies heavily on U.S. coordination, particularly regarding missile defense systems, making any unilateral escalation a highly risky move. The phone conversation between Netanyahu and Trump was described as "fraught with fundamental disagreements" over how to approach the Iranian nuclear issue. Trump reportedly reiterated his commitment to diplomacy, expressing confidence in the possibility of achieving a "good deal" that would address both U.S. and Israeli security concerns. Neither the White House nor the Israeli Prime Minister's Office has officially commented on the report. This development marks a significant point of tension between two longtime allies over the handling of Iran's nuclear ambitions and underscores the delicate balance between diplomacy and military strategy in the region. 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 Ayat Khaddoura's Final Video Captures Bombardment of Beit Lahia News Australia Fines Telegram $600,000 Over Terrorism, Child Abuse Content Arts & Culture Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban's $4.7M LA Home Burglarized Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Sports Neymar Announced for Brazil's Preliminary List for 2026 FIFA World Cup Qualifiers News Prime Minister Moustafa Madbouly Inaugurates Two Indian Companies Arts & Culture New Archaeological Discovery from 26th Dynasty Uncovered in Karnak Temple Business Fear & Greed Index Plummets to Lowest Level Ever Recorded amid Global Trade War Arts & Culture Zahi Hawass: Claims of Columns Beneath the Pyramid of Khafre Are Lies News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks

Israel approves biggest expansion of West Bank settlements in decades
Israeli settlements in the occupied West Bank, as well as in East Jerusalem and the occupied Golan Heights, are considered illegal under international law. For months, Israel's military has carried out a massive operation in the West Bank, deploying tanks to the territory for the first time in decades and displacing tens of thousands of Palestinians. In February, Katz ordered the military 'to prepare for a prolonged presence' as the military evacuated Palestinian refugee camps. Within the last several weeks, Israeli forces have carried out multiple waves of raids and arrests across the West Bank. He added the new settlements are 'illegal under international law, further imperil the two-state solution, and do not protect Israel.' The decision this week to expand settlements sparked international criticism. The United Kingdom's minister for the Middle East and North Africa, Hamish Falconer, called the move a 'deliberate obstacle to Palestinian statehood.' Jordan's foreign ministry also lambasted the move, saying in a statement that it 'represents a deliberate disregard for ongoing international calls to halt settlement activity and violations in the occupied Palestinian territories.' 'All Israeli actions and decisions in the West Bank are illegal and illegitimate,' the statement added. Earlier this month, France joined the UK and Canada to threaten 'concrete actions,' including targeted sanctions against Israel, if Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's government did not allow far more aid into Gaza and cease settlement expansion in the West Bank. Peace Now blasted the government for making such a decision in the midst of a war. 'The government is making clear – again and without restraint – that it prefers deepening the occupation and advancing de facto annexation over pursuing peace,' the organization said. 'The Israeli government no longer pretends otherwise: the annexation of the Occupied Territories and expansion of settlements is its central goal.' The Oslo Accords, signed in 1993 between Israel and the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO), were designed to pave the way for the establishment of a Palestinian state and the realization of a two-state solution.
