GAZA HEALTH MINISTRY

Israel is deliberately obstructing patients’ travel through the Rafah border crossing.

Only 53 patients were allowed to leave today, far below the required 150.

UN SECRETARY-GENERAL:

Renewed hostilities in Gaza would lead to a “massive tragedy.”

Both sides must fully adhere to the ceasefire agreement and resume negotiations seriously.

KAN: Protesters gathered outside Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office ahead of a cabinet meeting, demanding a prisoner exchange deal.

PFLP:

The presidential decree canceling stipends for families of prisoners and martyrs is a submission to Israeli and U.S. pressure.

It constitutes a blatant violation of national rights.

IRANIAN PRESIDENT

“Forcing people out of their homelands is wrong.”

“Those who bomb women and children have no right to speak about human rights.”

YEDIOTH AHRONOTH:

The Israeli army deployed armored personnel carriers in northern West Bank settlements.

This follows assessments of a possible large-scale operation similar to October 7.

LAPID: “Go to Doha and bring back all the captives—time is running out.”

BEN-GVIR:

Trump is right—we must resume destruction now.

Trump warned that if all captives aren’t released by Saturday, he will call for canceling the ceasefire.
