Palestine Calls for Effective Int'l Mechanisms to Stop Israeli Annexation Plans
Taarek Refaat The Palestinian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates said on Friday that settlement expansion and incursions into the West Bank by Israeli occupation leaders require effective international mechanisms to halt annexation plans. In a statement reported by the Palestinian News Agency (WAFA), the Palestinian Ministry of Foreign Affairs stressed that the incursions into the occupied West Bank by ministers of the occupation government, the settlers' encroachment on its land, streets, and citizens' property, and the boasting about building 22 new settlements constitute an Israeli attempt to destroy the two-state solution and a blatant disregard for United Nations resolutions and international law, as well as for the international consensus rejecting settlements, which violate international law and directly threaten the establishment of a Palestinian state. The Ministry called for effective international mechanisms to halt annexation and expansion plans, stressing that the recognition of the State of Palestine by European countries, the success of the UN conference and its practical outcomes, and support for the State of Palestine's attainment of full membership in the United Nations contribute significantly to strengthening and protecting the two-state solution. 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

Terrorism Casts Shadow over Balochistan's Surab
SeeNews Surab city today became a victim of terrorists supported by India. This evening, around 50 terrorists entered Sorab city on motorcycles. These attackers belong to the banned organization BLA, which is fully supported by Indian intelligence agencies. The terrorists looted a bank, destroyed markets, and damaged the property of ordinary people. Women and children were beaten, residential areas were attacked, and homes were set on fire. The Baloch culture, and the respect for women and homes, was openly violated — a crime that cannot be forgiven even by an enemy. In this serious situation, ADC (Additional Deputy Commissioner Revenue) Hidayatullah Baloidi from Buleda embraced martyrdom while saving Baloch women and children. His sacrifice is a shining example of state pride and Baloch honor. As soon as the security forces arrived, the terrorists ran away. A clearance operation is ongoing, and the search for the fleeing terrorists is being carried out with full force. This incident once again proves that groups like BLA are enemies of Baloch people, not supporters of their rights. These Indian-sponsored terrorists are not only against the state, but they are direct enemies of the Baloch people, their children, women, honor, and traditions. The state of Pakistan will bring such elements and their sponsors to justice. The brave people of Balochistan and the security forces stand united, and a strong response will be given to the enemy. 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
