At least seven people were killed and more than 20 were seriously injured in an Israeli air strike on Berka Street in the center of Gaza. The attack came after previous attacks on a school and a refugee camp in Gaza.

Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu met with right-wing groups and pointed to the death of Hamas leader Deif, saying that Israel is 'approaching victory'. US Secretary of State Blinken came to Qatar and held new ceasefire negotiations, and announced that Israel had accepted the 'transition offer'.

Israel revealed the identities of 6 hostages in Gaza, but Hamas accused the US of succumbing to Israel's 'new' conditions. The situation in Gaza remains dangerous, with death being the only certainty for the Palestinian people.

Continuous Israeli airstrikes and ongoing fighting persist. Negotiations for a ceasefire continue, but time is running out.

Pressure from inside and outside on the Israeli government for a ... with Hamas

Negotiations for a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas are ongoing, with pressure mounting from both internal and external sources. Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu demands control over the Philadelphi Corridor, while Secretary of State Blinken meets with Egyptian President al-Sisi and Qatar's Sheikh Tamim in an attempt to find a resolution. The recovery of the bodies of six Israeli hostages by the Shin Bet intelligence service highlights the ongoing conflict. The United States presents a compromise proposal, which Israel accepts but Hamas rejects. In the midst of the negotiations, Hamas leader Hanija and Hezbollah military chief Shukr are killed, leading to further attacks by Hezbollah on Israel. Additionally, families of those held captive in the Gaza Strip demand the return of their loved ones. The US administration criticizes Netanyahu's stance on a ceasefire, labeling it 'maximalist'. Despite efforts from the US, Egypt, and Qatar, a ceasefire deal remains elusive. The situation in Gaza continues to escalate, with Israeli airstrikes targeting schools and displacing Palestinians. The US also accuses Iran of cyberattacks on the US presidential campaigns. The new Hamas leader, Sinwar, plays a key role in the ceasefire negotiations, while Palestinian President Abbas seeks to visit Gaza and secure further agreements. The conflict in the Middle East remains a pressing issue, with the urgency to reach a ceasefire in the coming days.

Israeli Attacks in Lebanon: Four Dead in the South

Four people have been killed in Israeli attacks in Lebanon, according to the Lebanese Health Ministry. The attacks targeted the village of Dhayra and left two others injured. It is unclear if the victims were fighters or civilians. The Israeli military stated that their airstrikes hit rocket launchers and several military structures belonging to Hezbollah in the south of Lebanon. The clashes between pro-Iranian Hezbollah and the Israeli army have intensified since the start of the conflict in Gaza following the Hamas major attack on Israel on October 7th. Hezbollah has been launching daily attacks on northern Israel from Lebanon for the past ten months, prompting Israeli retaliatory strikes on Hezbollah targets in Lebanon. The situation has raised concerns about a wider conflict. In addition to the Israeli attacks in Lebanon, six hostages were found dead in Khan Younis, Gaza, following an Israeli airstrike that killed an IDF commander.
