GAZA CITY: Gaza health officials said Israeli strikes killed six people across the Palestinian territory on Wednesday and wounded several others, including the son of Hamas&#39;s chief negotiator. Despite an October ceasefire, Gaza remains gripped by daily violence as Israeli strikes continue, with both the military and Hamas accusing one another of violating the truce. &quot;Five people have been killed since this morning in strikes by the occupation on the Gaza Strip,&quot; the civil defence agency, which operates as a rescue service under Hamas, said. Gaza City&#39;s Al-Ahli hospital reported receiving &quot;three dead and a number of wounded following an Israeli drone strike on the Zeitoun neighbourhood, southeast of Gaza City&quot;. A separate strike on the Al-Daraj neighbourhood of Gaza City killed one person and wounded 10 others, including the son of Hamas&#39;s chief negotiator Khalil al-Hayya, the hospital and a security source said. Azzam Khalil Al-Hayya has been &quot;seriously wounded in the Israeli airstrike&quot;, the security source told AFP. Two more people were killed and more than a dozen wounded in Israeli attacks in other parts of the territory, the civil defence agency and hospitals said. One of the two was a Hamas police officer, according to a security source. The ceasefire has largely halted the Gaza war that began after Hamas&#39;s October 7, 2023 attack on Israel. But violence has persisted, with at least 837 Palestinians killed since the truce began, according to Gaza&#39;s health ministry, which operates under Hamas authority and whose figures are considered reliable by the United Nations. Over the same period, the Israeli military said five soldiers have been killed in Gaza.

GAZA CITY: Gaza&#39;s civil defense agency said Tuesday that an Israeli strike killed three people in the Palestinian territory overnight, with Israeli warplanes seen soaring over the region after the assault, according to AFP journalists. Despite an October 10 ceasefire, Gaza remains gripped by daily violence as both the Israeli military and Hamas accuse one another of breaching the truce. &quot;Three people were killed as a result of an Israeli strike at midnight in the vicinity of the Al-Zaqzouq junction in Al-Amal neighborhood, northwest of Khan Younis in the southern Gaza Strip,&quot; spokesperson for Gaza&#39;s civil defense agency Mahmoud Bassal told AFP. Israel and Hamas regularly accuse each other of violating the ceasefire, which came into effect after two years of Israel&#39;s war on Gaza. More than 770 Palestinians have been killed since the truce began, according to Gaza&#39;s health ministry, which is under Hamas&rsquo; authority and whose figures are considered reliable by the United Nations. The Israeli army has reported five soldiers killed in Gaza since the start of the truce. Media restrictions and limited access in Gaza have prevented AFP from independently verifying casualty figures or freely covering the fighting.

GAZA CITY: Gaza&#39;s civil defense agency said on Tuesday that a toddler was among 10 people killed in separate Israeli strikes in the northern part of the Palestinian territory. Violence continues despite a ceasefire in the Gaza war that came into effect on October 10, with both Israel and Hamas regularly accusing each other of violations. Mahmoud Bassal, spokesman for the civil defense agency, said &quot;four people were killed, including a child and several others were injured... in a strike targeting a police vehicle&quot; in Gaza City. He identified the child as three-year-old Yahya al-Mallahi. Gaza City&#39;s Al-Shifa hospital confirmed receiving the bodies of the dead. Contacted by AFP, the Israeli army said it was looking into the details. In a statement, Gaza&#39;s interior ministry said Israeli warplanes had &quot;targeted a police vehicle&quot; in the city centre, &quot;causing several deaths and injuries.&quot; Bassal also said another person had been killed by Israeli fire in the northern Beit Lahia area earlier on Tuesday. The military said in a statement that its troops had identified an &quot;armed terrorist&quot; in the area of the so-called Yellow Line &mdash; behind which its forces have withdrawn &mdash; who approached their position. The army said he was killed in a strike, but it was unclear whether it referred to the same incident in Beit Lahia. AFP footage showed Palestinians gathering around the body of a man who was then placed on a stretcher and carried away to be buried through streets lined with rubble. Later on Tuesday evening, the civil defense agency reported that multiple people were killed in another strike near an intersection in the Al-Shati refugee camp in Gaza City. The Al-Shifa hospital confirmed receiving five bodies from &quot;an Israeli drone bombing with two missiles a group of citizens in front of warehouses for electricity generators&quot; in Al-Shati. The military did not offer an immediate response regarding the latest strike. The October ceasefire followed more than two years of war on Gaza. At least 757 have been killed in Gaza since the truce came into effect, according to the territory&#39;s health ministry, whose figures are considered reliable by the United Nations. The Israeli army says five of its soldiers have been killed in Gaza over the same period. Media restrictions and limited access in Gaza have prevented AFP from independently verifying casualty figures or freely covering the fighting.

KHAN YUNIS: In southern Gaza, aid workers are meticulously assembling fiberglass homes meant to shelter thousands of Palestinians still displaced six months after a ceasefire started between Israel and Hamas. Nearly two million people in Gaza are living in makeshift shelters, and the humanitarian situation remains dire, according to aid agencies.The fiberglass units are designed to offer a modicum of relief &mdash; homes with slightly more comfort than a tent vulnerable to the coastal winds that hit Gaza. Alessandro Markic, head of the United Nations Development Programme office in Gaza, initiated the plan. He said families &ldquo;are facing extremely difficult conditions.&rdquo; Roughly 4,000 units are planned in the Al-Mohararat area, west of Khan Younis. Workers assemble walls, install small windows, and lay roofs for families who try to settle in with rugs and cushions inside. &ldquo;These are very basic and temporary solutions, while we continue to plan for recovery and reconstruction,&rdquo; Markic said. The homes, he added, &ldquo;provide more dignity, privacy, and protection during the winter.&rdquo; Some Gazans were visibly relieved to have an alternative to the tents where most displaced people continue to live. Nasma Sharab has moved into one unit with her sons, and affirmed it was &ldquo;better&rdquo; than a tent. The fiberglass homes &ldquo;don&rsquo;t constantly blow away in the wind,&rdquo; she said. But, she added, &ldquo;it&rsquo;s a temporary solution while we wait for reconstruction to begin and for people to be able to go back to their homes.&rdquo; Among those who remain in a tent is Ali Abu Nahl, in Beit Lahia in northern Gaza, after being displaced to the center and south of the territory with his children and grandchildren. His house was destroyed during the devastating conflict that erupted with the Hamas attacks on Israel in October 2023. &ldquo;It&rsquo;s been half a year since the bombing stopped, but in Gaza, the war doesn&rsquo;t end when the strikes stop,&rdquo; he said.

Six months after a ceasefire, displaced Palestinians in Khan Younis are moving into fiberglass shelters built by aid workers, offering modest protection from harsh conditions while thousands still await reconstruction, stability, and a return to permanent homes.

ISLAMABAD: Pakistan, along with seven other Muslim countries, has strongly rejected Israeli statements suggesting the transfer of Gaza residents into Egypt, emphasizing that Palestinians must remain on their land, according to a joint statement released on Friday.&nbsp;The statement, issued by the Foreign Ministers of Pakistan, Egypt, Jordan, the United Arab Emirates, Indonesia, T&uuml;rkiye, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar, expressed &ldquo;absolute rejection of any attempts to expel the Palestinian people from their land.&rdquo;&nbsp;It called for keeping the Rafah Crossing open in both directions to ensure freedom of movement and prevent forced displacement.&nbsp;The ministers highlighted the importance of fully implementing US President Donald Trump&rsquo;s peace plan.&nbsp;&ldquo;The Ministers underscore the necessity of full adherence to the plan proposed by US President Donald Trump, including its provisions on keeping the Rafah Crossing open in both directions&hellip; and to create the right conditions for them to stay on their land and participate in building their homeland,&rdquo; the statement said.&nbsp;The joint declaration also stressed sustaining the ceasefire, alleviating civilian suffering, ensuring unrestricted humanitarian access, and initiating recovery and reconstruction in Gaza.&nbsp;It noted that these measures would allow the Palestinian Authority to resume responsibilities and &ldquo;lay the groundwork for a new phase of security and stability in the region.&rdquo;&nbsp;The statement comes amid reports of announcements by Israel over the Rafah Crossing. Earlier in the day, Pakistan&rsquo;s Foreign Office said that Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar held a phone call with his Saudi counterpart, Prince Faisal bin Farhan, to discuss regional developments, particularly Gaza. According to the statement, Dar &ldquo;strongly condemned Israel&rsquo;s unilateral plan to restrict the Rafah crossing for the exit only of Gaza residents,&rdquo; calling it a violation of the peace plan and a move that undermines humanitarian access. Both sides reaffirmed their commitment to ensuring unfettered aid to Gaza and advancing coordinated efforts toward lasting peace.&nbsp;On Wednesday, Israel&rsquo;s Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories said the border would reopen in the coming days to allow Gaza residents to exit to Egypt, under EU Border Assistance Mission supervision, similar to a mechanism used during a six-week truce in January 2025.&nbsp;Reaffirming their readiness to coordinate with the United States and other international parties, the ministers emphasized the importance of fully implementing UNSCR 2803 and other relevant UN resolutions, aiming for &ldquo;a just, comprehensive, and sustainable peace&rdquo; based on the two-state solution, with East Jerusalem as the capital of an independent Palestinian state.

In a joint statement, Muslim nations urge full Rafah Crossing access, stress ceasefire compliance, and call for reconstruction, amid conflicting Israeli and Egyptian announcements on Gaza movement.

ISLAMABAD: The United Nations Security Council on Monday voted in favor of a US-drafted resolution endorsing President Donald Trump&rsquo;s comprehensive plan to end the Gaza conflict, including the deployment of a Temporary International Stabilization Force (ISF) and steps toward a future Palestinian state.&nbsp;The resolution, adopted with 13 votes in favor and abstentions from Russia and China, establishes the Board of Peace, a transitional oversight body for Gaza with a mandate until 2027.&nbsp;The ISF is tasked with protecting civilians, securing humanitarian aid corridors, supporting border security, and assisting in the demilitarization of the Gaza Strip, with its full effectiveness contingent on the complete withdrawal of Israeli troops.&nbsp;Trump hailed the development, saying it would lead to &quot;further Peace all over the World.&quot;&nbsp;The vote was &quot;acknowledging and endorsing the BOARD OF PEACE, which will be chaired by me,&quot; he wrote on social media. &quot;This will go down as one of the biggest approvals in the History of the United Nations [and] will lead to further Peace all over the World.&quot;&nbsp;Commenting on the resolution, Pakistan&rsquo;s Permanent Representative to the UN Ambassador Asim Iftikhar Ahmad said Islamabad voted in favor &ldquo;with the primary objective, in the immediate term, to stop the bloodshed, to save the lives of innocent Palestinians including women and children, to maintain the ceasefire, to ensure much-needed large-scale humanitarian relief, and to secure the full withdrawal of Israeli forces from Gaza.&rdquo;&nbsp;He emphasized Pakistan&rsquo;s support for the plan as part of a coalition of eight Arab-Islamic countries, adding, &ldquo;We have welcomed that initiative because not only it got the ceasefire on ground, it subscribed to the need for humanitarian assistance, reconstruction, provision of a secure and stable environment, and the hope for a credible pathway to Palestinian self-determination and statehood.&rdquo;&nbsp;Ahmad stressed that the establishment of the Temporary International Stabilization Force could be stabilizing if guided by a clear peacekeeping mandate consistent with UN norms.&nbsp;He noted that protection of civilians would be a key priority for the ISF and that the force&rsquo;s mandate would only be effective after a complete withdrawal of Israeli troops.&nbsp;The Pakistani ambassador underlined that executive and administrative authority in Gaza must remain with Palestinians through a Palestinian Committee, and that the Palestinian Authority&rsquo;s role is central to ensuring credible governance, reconstruction, and Palestinian ownership of the process.&nbsp;He also called for ending the occupation and opening a credible, time-bound political process toward a Palestinian state, anchored in international law and relevant UN resolutions.&nbsp;&ldquo;Pakistan stands shoulder-to-shoulder with the people of Palestine,&rdquo; he said. &ldquo;Their suffering is our anguish; their resilience is our pride; their aspirations our cause.&rdquo;&nbsp;The resolution further emphasizes resuming large-scale humanitarian aid through the UN, Red Crescent, and other international agencies, while affirming no annexation or forced displacement of Palestinians and maintaining the territorial contiguity of Gaza and the West Bank as essential for a viable, sovereign state.&nbsp;The adoption of the resolution signals a significant international effort to stabilize Gaza, enforce the ceasefire, and create mechanisms that could eventually pave the way for a two-state solution.

JERUSALEM: US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said Saturday he did not envision a permanent division of Gaza, despite Israeli troops remaining in an area prioritised for reconstruction. Under a US-brokered ceasefire, Israeli forces have withdrawn to a &quot;Yellow Line&quot;, leaving them in control of around half of Gaza. The United States has said that reconstruction aid would be focused in the area under Israeli control. Rubio said that an international force, which US and regional mediators are trying to build, would move to enforce security across the Palestinian territory. Gaza&#39;s current masters, Hamas, could have no role in the future, he added. &quot;I think, ultimately, the point of the stabilisation force is to move that line until it covers hopefully all of Gaza, meaning all of Gaza will be demilitarised,&quot; Rubio told reporters on his plane between Israel and Qatar. &quot;Ultimately, the more of Gaza is demilitarised, the more of Gaza terrorism is removed from, the more of it is going to look like that green zone -- and that line will move as a result of it,&quot; he added. &quot;That&#39;s the long-term plan. The Israelis have made it abundantly clear they have no interest in occupying Gaza.&quot; The main Palestinian factions, including Hamas, have agreed to form a committee of technocrats to administer Gaza alongside the international ceasefire and reconstruction effort. But Hamas has resisted calls for its immediate disarmament, launching a crackdown on rival Palestinian gangs and armed groups in Gaza since the two-week-old ceasefire began. On Saturday, Mousa abu Marzouk, Hamas&#39;s head of international relations and legal affairs, warned: &quot;Excluding Hamas from maintaining stability in the Gaza Strip could lead to chaos and a security vacuum.&quot; Rubio was the latest top US official to come to Israel to push forward the ceasefire, arriving on the heels of Vice President JD Vance. Rubio said he expected General Dan Caine, the top US military officer, to visit Israel next week.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu no longer enjoys the excuse of waging a war on Gaza to manipulate corruption charges, opposition, and public scrutiny. Legal challenges Netanyahu is currently confronting three separate corruption trials. According to AFP, he faces allegations of receiving luxury items valued at over 260,000 USD, including cigars, jewelry, and champagne from wealthy businessmen in exchange for political favors. On June 29, 2025, an Israeli court postponed Netanyahu&#39;s testimony in the corruption trial. US President Donald Trump has repeatedly called for the case to be &lsquo;cancelled&rsquo;. In his recent address to the Knesset in Tel Aviv, Trump asked Israeli President Isaac Herzog to pardon Netanyahu. Political opposition Yesh Atid, led by Yair Lapid, represents the primary opposition bloc. However, the group faces significant challenges in presenting a unified alternative to Netanyahu&#39;s government. Reuters reported in September 2025 that the opposition&#39;s attempt to dissolve parliament and force early elections failed, primarily due to ultra-Orthodox factions striking a deal with Netanyahu on mandatory military service. The opposition&#39;s internal fragmentation remains a critical weakness, with deep ideological differences preventing a united front. Coalition dependencies Netanyahu&#39;s government heavily relies on far-right parties like Otzma Yehudit and Religious Zionism. Party leaders Itamar Ben-Gvir and Bezalel Smotrich have threatened to destabilize the coalition over policy disagreements, particularly concerning the Gaza ceasefire deal. British politician Callum Miller noted that Netanyahu&#39;s dependency on far-right partners forces more radical actions, prioritizing coalition unity over national interests. Military establishment critique The Israeli security establishment has sharply criticized Netanyahu&#39;s leadership. As documented in &lsquo;Netanyahu vs The Generals: The Battle for Israel&#39;s Future,&rsquo; high-ranking security officials have publicly challenged the government&#39;s strategic decisions. Michael Oren, a former Israeli ambassador to the US, stated in October 2025 that Israel has exhausted major military options against Hamas. Judicial reform controversies A bill passed in March 2025 allows what the Israeli opposition termed as increased government influence over judicial appointments. Many have raised substantial concerns about judicial independence. Reuters reported in April 2023 that thousands of Israelis have protested in Tel Aviv against the government&#39;s judicial reform plans. In July 2023, AFP described mass protests and strikes across Israel sparked by the government&#39;s reform initiatives. War on Gaza management Netanyahu has faced mounting criticism over the conflict&#39;s management. The Guardian reported on October 14, 2025, that Netanyahu&#39;s rhetoric emphasized continued military presence, contradicting claims of a &lsquo;concluded conflict.&rsquo; Reuters noted that opposition leader Benny Gantz withdrew from the emergency war cabinet, criticizing what he believed had been Netanyahu&#39;s lack of strategic planning. Hostage families&#39; pressure The Hostages and Missing Families Forum has become a powerful opposition voice. AFP reported that many family members demonstrated against Netanyahu during his United Nations General Assembly speech. In October 2025, Reuters reported the forum&#39;s continued dissatisfaction with the ceasefire-hostage deal. Political prospects The Israel Democracy Institute&#39;s October 2025 report revealed mixed public sentiment with only over 40% of Israelis having trust in Netanyahu. A Maariv poll in The Times of Israel on October 10 showed Netanyahu&#39;s Likud party projected to win 27 Knesset seats, a slight increase from previous standings. While still significantly short of a majority, this shows uptick in positive public perception. The temporary boost is likely from the hostage-ceasefire deal. However, the same Democracy Institute study showed that 64% of Israelis believe Netanyahu should resign over the October 7, 2023 security failures. His ability to maintain political relevance amidst significant opposition indicates a capacity for strategic political maneuvering. Existing public opinion data suggests that he may be able to form a coalition government in the upcoming October 2026 elections.

Can Netanyahu survive the odds after Gaza peace deal?

The United Nations said on Thursday it had a detailed 60-day plan to rush aid into Gaza once a ceasefire is declared to start helping Palestinians in the war-ravaged territory. &quot;Our plan, detailed and tested, is in place,&quot; said Tom Fletcher, the UN head of humanitarian operations. &quot;Our supplies, 170,000 metric tons, food, medicine and other supplies, are in place. And our team, courageous and expert and determined, are in place,&quot; Fletcher told a press conference by video link from Saudi Arabia. Large swathes of the besieged Palestinian territory have been largely reduced to rubble by Israel&#39;s military offensive following Hamas&#39;s October 7, 2023, attack. Israel&#39;s blockade has seen life-saving aid to Gaza slashed, with the UN declaring a famine in parts of Gaza and hundreds of Palestinians dying of malnutrition. Fletcher said that the UN aimed to surge aid into Gaza so that hundreds of trucks enter the territory every day. &quot;Famine must be reverted in areas where it has taken hold and prevented in others,&quot; Fletcher said. Food, water, health care&nbsp;The plan calls for providing food to 2.1 million people &mdash; almost Gaza&#39;s entire population &mdash; and specific nutritional aid to 500,000 who are severely malnourished. The plan will give food to people and also support bakeries, collective kitchens, and provide cash for 200,000 people so they can choose what food they want to buy. The initiative will also seek to provide 1.4 million people with water and sanitation services. &quot;We&#39;ll help to restore the water grid,&quot; said Fletcher. &quot;We will repair sewage leaks and pumping stations. We will move solid waste away from residential spaces, and will provide hygiene supplies, soap, shampoo, laundry detergent, sanitary pads.&quot; The United Nations will work to restore Gaza&#39;s decimated health care system &mdash; crippled by Israel&#39;s military operations &mdash; by providing equipment and medicine, among other assistance. &quot;We&#39;ll help scale up emergency care, primary health, child health, sexual reproductive, maternal and neonatal health, non-communicable diseases, mental health and rehabilitation,&quot; said Fletcher. With most of the buildings in Gaza destroyed by Israel&#39;s offensive, the plan calls for bringing in thousands of tents per week. The United Nations also wants to get temporary schools set up for 700,000 children. But Fletcher said that for all this to succeed, there were a number of critical things that also needed to happen. They include sustained entry of at least 1.9 million liters of fuel every week and resumption of the flow of cooking gas. He said relief supplies need to come in through multiple corridors, and there need to be more scanners in place so aid convoys can move more swiftly, plus security guarantees to prevent looting. He said aid needs to come in unimpeded and there has to be money to pay for all of this. At the moment, only 28 percent of the $4 billion in a UN appeal for Gaza has been funded, said Fletcher. And the UN will need to go beyond the 170,000 tons of aid it now has pre-positioned in Israel, Jordan, Egypt and Cyprus, which is not enough for the first 60 days after the war ends. &quot;Let&#39;s be clear, this problem won&#39;t go away in two months,&quot; said Fletcher.

ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif on Friday said that Pakistanis detained by Israeli forces from the Global Samood flotilla, including former Senator Mushtaq Ahmed Khan, will be repatriated &ldquo;very soon.&rdquo;&nbsp;According to a statement from the Prime Minister&rsquo;s Office, Sharif held a telephone conversation with Pakistan religio-political party Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) Chief Hafiz Naeem-ur-Rehman to discuss the situation in the Middle East, the ceasefire efforts in Palestine, and developments in Kashmir.&nbsp;Sharif reiterated Pakistan&rsquo;s longstanding position on the Palestinian cause, emphasizing the urgent need for a ceasefire in Gaza and an end to &ldquo;the ongoing massacre of Palestinians.&rdquo; He stressed that Pakistan has consistently defended the rights of &ldquo;its Palestinian brothers and sisters&rdquo; at every international forum and would continue to do so.&nbsp;The prime minister reaffirmed Islamabad&rsquo;s support for the establishment of an independent Palestinian state along pre-1967 borders with Al-Quds Al-Sharif as its capital. He noted that eight Islamic countries were actively working toward securing a ceasefire, expressing optimism that these efforts would soon bear fruit.&nbsp;On the detention of activists, Sharif said the government was in close contact with friendly countries and international organizations to ensure the safe return of Pakistani citizens. Israel does not have diplomatic relations with Pakistan.&nbsp;Israeli naval forces intercepted the 45-vessel flotilla last week, detaining more than 450 activists, including Swedish climate campaigner Greta Thunberg. The ships, which had departed Spain in late August, were carrying humanitarian aid in a bid to challenge Israel&rsquo;s blockade of Gaza. Detainees were taken to Ashdod port for deportation proceedings, prompting condemnation from Amnesty International and protests in several countries.&nbsp;Turkey, Spain, Colombia, and South Africa have joined Pakistan in demanding the activists&rsquo; immediate release.&nbsp;Sharif and Rehman also discussed the situation in Indian-occupied Kashmir, with the prime minister reiterating Pakistan&rsquo;s commitment to supporting peace and the rights of Kashmiris.
