Who are those people? Rather than being cryptic, why cant you say it openly?

My personal opinion is, any attack or dropping bombs on innocent civilians should be condemned. I absolutely do not support Israel's madness and never will. I dont think Jews should vacate that land though and have got all the right to live there. However killing innocent people is highly condemnable.

Now let me ask you this question. If the people Israel are attacking happen to be non muslims, will you be as much worried? Are you as much worried for Ukrainian's? I have my doubts. So similarly you cant expect non muslims to feel the same way on this Israel-Palestine issue as muslims themselves. However, if anyone supporting this barbaric meaningless attacks on innocents, that is wrong ofcourse.

Forget worrying about attacks on non-muslims, you will not hear a peep from many of these Palestinian supporters about the genocide of Muslims in Syria by the current Islamic government. I didn't see a post on the genocide of Alawites in Syria that is currently happening. Soldiers of the current regime going house to house and shooting Alawites. All because Alawites follow Islam that the majority Sunni do not approve. :rolleyes:

UN says worker killed in Gaza as Israeli air strikes resume

The UN says that one of its workers has been killed and others injured after a compound in Gaza was damaged on Wednesday, adding that the circumstances of the incident remain unclear.

The Palestinian territory's Hamas-run health ministry blamed an Israeli strike and said five critically injured foreign workers had arrived in hospital. Israel's military denied striking the UN compound in Deir al-Balah.

It comes after Israel said it was resuming fighting in Gaza following a two-month ceasefire - launching a wave of strikes that killed more than 400 people, according to Gaza's health ministry.

On Tuesday, Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said it had "resumed combat in full force".

After airstrikes, Israel says it has launched new ground operation in Gaza

The Israeli military said on Wednesday its forces resumed ground operations in the central and southern Gaza Strip, as a second day of airstrikes killed at least 48 Palestinians, according to local health workers.

The renewed ground operations came a day after more than 400 Palestinians were killed in airstrikes in one of the deadliest episodes since the beginning of the conflict in October 2023, shattering a ceasefire that has largely held since January.

The Israeli military said its operations extended Israel's control over the Netzarim Corridor, which bisects Gaza, and were a "focused" manoeuvre aimed at creating a partial buffer zone between the north and the south of the enclave.

The Palestinian militant group Hamas said the ground operation and the incursion into the Netzarim Corridor were a "new and dangerous violation" of the two-month-old ceasefire agreement. In a statement, the group reaffirmed its commitment to the deal and called on mediators to "assume their responsibilities".


 
At least 55 killed in new Israeli Gaza strikes, says Hamas-run agency

At least 55 Palestinians have been killed in overnight Israeli air strikes in Gaza, the Hamas-run civil defence agency has said.

It comes after Israel resumed its bombing campaign and ground operations in the territory this week, with air strikes killing more than 430 people over two days, according to the Hamas-run health ministry.

Hamas says the ground operation announced by Israel on Wednesday is a "new and dangerous" violation of the ceasefire deal, which began in January. Israel resumed attacks on Tuesday as talks to extend the deal failed to progress.

Israel has warned that attacks will intensify in Gaza until Hamas releases the remaining hostages.

Israel says Hamas is still holding 59 hostages, 24 of whom are believed to be alive.

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said on Thursday it had begun "targeted ground activities" to create what it called a "partial buffer between the north and south" in Gaza. It called the action a "limited ground operation".

IDF spokesperson Col Avichay Adraee said forces were deployed up to the centre of a strip known as the Netzarim corridor which divides northern and southern Gaza.

On Tuesday, Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said it had "resumed combat in full force" and any ceasefire negotiations would now take place "under fire".

Israel and Hamas have failed to agree how to take the ceasefire beyond the first phase, which expired on 1 March.

Hamas did not agree to a renegotiation of the ceasefire on Israel's terms, although it offered to release a living American hostage and four hostages' bodies as mediators tried to keep the ceasefire going.

Israel blocked all food, fuel and medical supplies entering Gaza at the beginning of March in order to put pressure on Hamas. It accused Hamas of commandeering the provisions as part of its strategy against Israel, though without providing evidence.

The war was triggered by Hamas's attack on Israel on 7 October 2023 in which about 1,200 people, mainly civilians, were killed and 251 other taken hostage. Twenty-five Israeli and five Thai hostages were released alive during the first phase of the ceasefire.

Israel responded to the October attack with a massive military offensive, which had killed more than 48,500 Palestinians, mainly civilians, before Israel resumed its campaign, the Hamas-run health ministry says. Israel's offensive has also caused huge amounts of destruction to homes and infrastructure.

At least 85 Palestinians have been killed in overnight Israeli air strikes in Gaza, the territory's Hamas-run health ministry has said

Hours later, Israel's military said it had intercepted three rockets, which Hamas's armed wing said it fired at Tel Aviv in response.

It comes after Israel resumed its bombing campaign and ground operations in Gaza this week, with air strikes having already killed more than 430 people over the past two days, according to the health ministry.

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said on Thursday that it had started a ground operation in northern Gaza. There had been a reprieve from large-scale military action since January, when a ceasefire had begun.

Gaza's health ministry also reported that 133 people were injured in the latest attacks on Thursday.

Israel resumed attacks on Tuesday as talks to extend the ceasefire deal failed to progress, warning they would intensify until Hamas released the remaining hostages.

Israel says Hamas is still holding 59 hostages, 24 of whom are believed to still be alive.

IDF spokesperson Col Avichay Adraee said Hamas had fired three rockets from southern Gaza. One was intercepted, while the other two fell in an "open area", he wrote in a post on X.

The Israeli military said earlier on Thursday that it had begun "targeted ground activities" to create what it called a "partial buffer between the north and south" of Gaza. It called the action a "limited ground operation".

Col Adraee said forces were deployed up to the centre of a strip, known as the Netzarim Corridor, which divides northern and southern Gaza.

Meanwhile, five staff members of the UN's Palestinian refugee agency Unrwa were among those killed over the "past few days", the agency's chief Philippe Lazzarini said in a post on X.

"They were teachers, doctors and nurses," he added, warning that "the worst is yet to come" amid the ongoing ground invasion.

On Wednesday, the UN said that one of its workers had been killed after its compound in Deir al-Balah in central Gaza was damaged. While it said the circumstances remain unclear, UN Office for Project Services head Jorge Moreira said it was "not an accident" and "at least an incident".

Gaza's health ministry blamed an Israeli strike, which it said injured five others. Israel's military said it did not attack the compound but was investigating the incident.

UK Foreign Secretary David Lammy confirmed on Thursday that a UK national had been wounded in the compound attack. It comes after a charity said one of its workers, a 51-year-old British bomb disposal expert, had been injured.

"Our priority is supporting them and their family at this time," he told MPs.

At the Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis, southern Gaza, Qasim Abu Sharqiya said his two-year-old son, Omar, had been born through in vitro fertilisation (IVF) after five years of trying.

"They bombed a tent next to us and he died," he told AFP. "Omar is my only son, oh world, and I have no one else."

A doctor there, Tanya Haj Hassan, told the BBC's Newshour that she had heard of at least 76 people who "didn't even make it into the ER" but were taken "straight to the mortuary".

France opposes ‘any form of annexation’ of Gaza: Foreign minister

France’s foreign minister has rejected “any form” of Israeli annexation of Gaza, AFP reports.

Jean-Noel Barrot made the comments in response to Israel’s defence minister saying he had ordered the military to “seize more ground” in Gaza and warning of a partial annexation of the territory should Hamas not release its remaining captives.

“France is opposed to any form of annexation whether it concerns the West Bank or the Gaza Strip,” Barrot said, speaking to reporters in the French city of Dijon. “We have a very clear vision of the future of the region – a solution of two states living side by side in peace.”

Israel orders army to 'seize additional territories' in Gaza

Israel's defence minister has told the military to "seize additional areas in Gaza" and threatened to permanently occupy parts of it, if Hamas does not free all remaining hostages.

Israel Katz said that the military would continue its ground operation in Gaza "with increasing intensity" until all of the hostages "both living and dead" were returned.

It is thought 24 of the 59 hostages still held in Gaza are alive, but their fate remains in the balance after negotiations on the second phase of the ceasefire deal failed to progress.

The fragile ceasefire that had been in place since January ended this week as Israel resumed its ground campaign and bombing of Gaza, killing hundreds of people.

The situation in the Strip has been described as "gravely, gravely concerning" with "absolutely desperate tragedies occurring all over Gaza" by Sam Rose from the UN agency for Palestinian refugees, Unrwa.

Israel and the US have accused Hamas of rejecting proposals to extend the ceasefire. Hamas has said it is "engaging with the mediators with full responsibility and seriousness".

However, Katz said in a statement on Friday that "the more Hamas continues its refusal, the more territory it will lose to Israel".

Katz added that Israel still agreed to a proposal, which was brought by US envoy Steve Witkoff, "to release all the kidnapped, both living and dead, in advance and in two stages with a ceasefire in between".

"We will intensify the fighting with strikes from the air, sea and land and by expanding the ground manoeuvre until the hostages are released and Hamas is defeated," Katz wrote.

The defence minister also said Israel would "implement US President Trump's voluntary transfer plan for Gaza residents".

Trump said he wants the US to take over and rebuild the Gaza Strip, while permanently removing its population of two million Palestinians.

The Palestinian Authority and Hamas have said Gaza is "not for sale", while the UN warned that any forced displacement of civilians from occupied territory is strictly prohibited under international law and "tantamount to ethnic cleansing".

Months of negotiations, led by the US, Qatar and Egypt, saw a ceasefire deal proposed in three stages. Israel and Hamas failed to agree on how to take the truce beyond the first phase.

The plan stalled when the US and Israel proposed to extend stage one. Hamas rejected the change and said it was a "blatant attempt" by Israel "to evade the agreement".

The ceasefire was broken on Tuesday when Israel launched a heavy wave of airstrikes on the Gaza Strip, killing more than 430 people in two days, the Hamas-run health ministry said. On Thursday, Hamas launched three rockets at Tel Aviv.

Blaming Hamas for the resumption of violence, Israeli government spokesman David Mencer said the group had "rejected every hostage deal".

Israel says Hamas is still holding 59 hostages, 24 of whom are believed to still be alive.

On Friday, the acting US ambassador to the UN squarely blamed Hamas for the ongoing war and resumption of fighting.

"Every death would have been avoided had Hamas accepted the bridge proposal," Dorothy Shea told the UN Security Council.

Hamas has denied it is responsible for stalling the negotiations, and said it "remains deeply involved" and is "engaging with the mediators with full responsibility and seriousness".

In a statement on Telegram, Hamas wrote it is discussing "the Witkoff proposal and other different ideas put forward, all with the goal of securing a prisoner exchange deal that ensures the release of prisoners, ends the war, and achieves a withdrawal" [of Israeli troops from the Gaza Strip].

In his statement, Katz also said that civilians would be evacuated from the areas the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) are targeting.

Previous evacuation orders have sent panic through Palestinians families, many of whom have been displaced repeatedly by the war and have few safe options left.

Israel blocked all food, fuel and medical supplies entering Gaza at the beginning of March in order to put pressure on Hamas. It accused Hamas of commandeering the provisions as part of its strategy against Israel, though did not provide evidence for this claim.

The Israeli military launched a campaign to destroy Hamas in response to an unprecedented cross-border attack on 7 October 2023, in which about 1,200 people were killed and 251 were taken hostage.

More than 49,500 Palestinians have been killed in Gaza since then, the Hamas-run health ministry says, and there is large-scale destruction to homes and infrastructure in the Strip.

Just reminded you about their history of homelessness of 3000 years and how they were given refuge by Palestinians. Atleast you learned something new and I know you wouldn't have any response to it :) Just a matter of time till last straw of US support ends as many Americans are getting fed up of supporting a genocidal Nazi state and speak up against it. Then you can sure welcome them in India once those colonizers get kicked out of Palestine. If they don't make peace and give majority of land back to Palestine, their colonial project future looks rather grim. We are not living in stone age anymore, there is arrest warrant out for Israeli Terrorist Leaders for genocide and war crimes by International Criminal Court....its all ticking

Hamas spokesperson Qanoua killed in Israeli airstrike, says Hamas media

Hamas spokesperson Abdel-Latif Al-Qanoua has been killed in an Israeli airstrike in northern Gaza, Hamas-affiliated media said early on Thursday, the latest group figure to be killed since Israel resumed its operations in the enclave.

Qanoua was killed when his tent was targeted in Jabalia, the Hamas-run Al-Aqsa television said. The same strike wounded several people, while separate attacks killed at least six in Gaza City and one in southern Gaza's Khan Younis, medical sources said.

The Reuters Tariff Watch newsletter is your daily guide to the latest global trade and tariff news. Sign up here.

Later on Thursday, the Israeli military confirmed in a statement that it killed Qanoua, saying that "he served as one of Hamas' key inciters."

Earlier this week, Israel killed Ismail Barhoum, a member of Hamas' political office, and Salah al-Bardaweel, another senior leader.

Both Bardaweel and Barhoum were members of the 20-member Hamas decision-making body, the political office, 11 of whom have been killed since the start of the war in late 2023, according to Hamas sources.

Last week, Israel ended a two-month-old ceasefire by resuming bombing and ground operations, increasing pressure on Hamas to free the remaining hostages in its captivity.

At least 855 people, over half of them children and women, have been killed since Israel resumed major military strikes in Gaza on March 18, according to Gaza's health ministry.

Palestinian health authorities said that at least 30 people have been killed by Israeli strikes across Gaza on Thursday.

Israel and Hamas accused each other of breaching the truce. It had broadly held since January and offered respite from war for the 2.3 million inhabitants of Gaza, which has been reduced to rubble.

Hamas, which still holds 59 of the 250 or so hostages Israel says the group seized in its October 7, 2023 attack, accused Israel of jeopardising efforts by mediators to negotiate a permanent deal to end the fighting.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said he ordered strikes because Hamas had rejected proposals to secure a ceasefire extension. He repeated threats on Wednesday to seize territory in Gaza if Hamas failed to release the remaining hostages it still holds.

Anti-Hamas chants at new protests in Gaza: witnesses​


1743170121206.png

Palestinians on Wednesday staged protests in the Gaza Strip against the territory's Hamas rulers for the second consecutive day, calling for an end to the war with Israel, witnesses said.

Demonstrators carrying banners reading "Hamas does not represent us" were seen marching in Gaza City and the town of Beit Lahia to the north, just over a week after Israel resumed its bombing campaign following nearly two months of a truce.

"We do not want Hamas! We are tired," said protester Muayed Zahir, who took part in the rally in Gaza City.

After more than 17 months of devastating war, "there is no education, no food, no clothing -- and all this is because of Hamas," Zahir added.

"We appeal to (Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin) Netanyahu: Stop firing missiles at the sad, poor people."

Protesters also chanted "Out, out, Hamas out!" witnesses said.

One demonstrator who declined to be named said that nearly "two years of destruction and extreme hardship are enough".

"Enough, Hamas, with the suffering inflicted on the people of Gaza... These are the demands of the people," added the man, stressing that "we speak in the name of the people, we are not being controlled by anyone."

On Tuesday, hundreds of Palestinians participated in a protest in Beit Lahia, the biggest rally in Gaza against Hamas since the start of the war.

Hamas has been in power in Gaza since 2007.

Levels of discontent towards Hamas are difficult to gauge, in part because of its intolerance for public expressions of dissent.

A public opinion poll conducted in September by the Palestinian Center for Policy and Survey Research, based outside of Gaza in the occupied West Bank, estimated that 35 percent of Gazans supported Hamas.

According to the survey, support for Hamas in Gaza was slightly higher than for its main political rival, the Fatah movement of Ramallah-based Palestinian president Mahmud Abbas, estimated at 26 percent.

In Israel's parliament on Wednesday, Netanyahu said: "More and more Gazans understand that Hamas brings them destruction and ruin... all of this proves that our policy is working."

Fatah's spokesman in Gaza, Monther al-Hayek, on Saturday called on Hamas to "step aside from governing" the territory to safeguard the "existence" of Palestinians there.

Before Israel resumed its military operations in Gaza, it had blocked in early March the entry of aid into the war-ravaged territory, worsening an already dire humanitarian situation.
Israeli officials said the move to block aid was aimed at forcing the militants to release Israeli hostages held in Gaza since Hamas's October 7, 2023 attack that sparked the war.

That attack resulted in the deaths of 1,218 people on Israeli side, mostly civilians, according to an AFP tally based on official figures.

Since Israel resumed its military operations on March 18, at least 830 Palestinians have been killed in Gaza, according to the health ministry in the Hamas-run territory.

Israel's military offensive since October 2023 has killed at least 50,183 people in Gaza, the majority of them civilians, according to the health ministry.

Right now majority Americans have become massively pro-Zionist thanks to the Maga Red hat leaders of theirs.
Only way forward is if Zionist forces become weaker and sorry to say not looking like it thanks to the EU or Islamic Dictators.
 
Israel admits firing at ambulances in Gaza after Palestinians say rescuers missing in Rafah

Israel’s military has admitted it fired on ambulances in the Gaza Strip after identifying them as “suspicious vehicles”, with Hamas condemning it as a “war crime” that killed at least one person.

The incident took place last Sunday in the Tal al-Sultan neighbourhood in the southern city of Rafah, close to the Egyptian border.

Israeli troops launched an offensive there on 20 March, two days after the army resumed aerial bombardments of Gaza after an almost two-month-long truce. Attacks on medical staff, hospitals and ambulances are potential war crimes.

Israeli troops had “opened fire toward Hamas vehicles and eliminated several Hamas terrorists”, the military claimed in a statement to Agence France-Presse.

“A few minutes afterward, additional vehicles advanced suspiciously toward the troops … The troops responded by firing toward the suspicious vehicles, eliminating a number of Hamas and Islamic Jihad terrorists.”

The military did not say if there was fire coming from the vehicles.

It added that “after an initial inquiry, it was determined that some of the suspicious vehicles … were ambulances and fire trucks”, and condemned what it claimed was “the repeated use” by “terrorist organisations in the Gaza Strip of ambulances for terrorist purposes”.

The day after the incident, Gaza’s civil defence agency said in a statement that it had not heard from a team of six rescuers from Tal al-Sulta who had been urgently dispatched to respond to deaths and injuries.

On Friday, it reported finding the body of the team leader and the rescue vehicles – an ambulance and a firefighting vehicle – and said a vehicle from the Palestine Red Crescent Society was also “reduced to a pile of scrap metal”.

Basem Naim, a member of Hamas’s political bureau, accused Israel of carrying out “a deliberate and brutal massacre against civil defence and Palestinian Red Crescent teams in the city of Rafah”.

“The targeted killing of rescue workers – who are protected under international humanitarian law – constitutes a flagrant violation of the Geneva conventions and a war crime,” he said.

Tom Fletcher, head of the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs, said that since 18 March, “Israeli airstrikes in densely populated areas have killed hundreds of children and other civilians”.

“Patients killed in their hospital beds. Ambulances shot at. First responders killed,” he said in a statement.

“If the basic principles of humanitarian law still count, the international community must act while it can to uphold them.”

Israel-Hamas ceasefire back on table in new negotiations

The Palestinian militant group Hamas says it supports resuming a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip through a proposal put forward by mediators which would see five more hostages released to Israel in exchange for a 50-day truce.

Khalil al-Hayya, the most senior Hamas leader outside Gaza, said the group had approved a draft deal sent by Egyptian and Qatari mediators.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office said it had also received the plan, and submitted a "counter-proposal to the mediators in full co-ordination with the United States".

If agreed to, the new limited ceasefire agreement could coincide with the Muslim holiday of Eid al-Fitr which begins on Sunday.

On Saturday, Netanyahu's office said he had held consultations on the ceasefire proposal from the mediators.

It said the Israeli counter-offer had been agreed with the US, but did not provide further details.The US has not publicly commented on the issue.

It comes as Israeli forces launched a ground operation in Rafah and continued air strikes across Gaza Strip after a ceasefire which had come into force on 19 January ended earlier this month. Both sides had been unable to agree to a second phase of the deal after the first ended.

During the first phase, Hamas had released 33 hostages. The Iran-backed group is thought to still be holding 59 hostages, although not all are believed to be alive.

Hamas had previously insisted on sticking to the original deal - with negotiations to start on a second phase that envisaged the release of all the remaining hostages in return for a complete withdrawal of Israeli forces in Gaza and an end to the war. But those negotiations never started.

Israel and the US instead proposed that the first phase of the ceasefire - which expired a month ago - should be extended, with no clear guarantee that the war would end.

Israel accused Hamas of rejecting the extension and on 18 March resumed its military strikes on Gaza.

More than 900 people across the territory have been killed by Israeli air strikes since then, the Hamas-run health ministry has said.

Meanwhile, the relatives of the remaining hostages have accused Netanyahu of putting hostage lives in danger by breaking the ceasefire.

One of those hostages, Elkana Bohbot, was shown in a new video posted by Hamas in which he begs for his release.

The war was triggered when Hamas attacked southern Israel on 7 October 2023, killing about 1,200 people and taking 251 back to Gaza as captives.

Israel responded with a massive military offensive, which killed more than 50,000 Palestinians, Gaza's Hamas-run health ministry says.

Pakistanis?

Also, why cant Hamas release all the hostages first. It will be the simplest thing to do na? If Israel dnt stop the attacks even after that then for sure pray for all the doomdays you want. Even wider world will support you on it.

However, I have not seen a single muslim either here or outside ever raised this topic about hostages and makes a plea to Hamas to release them. It is basic common sense and should be the starting point of resolving this conflict.

All tyrants perish. No tyrant can live and rule forever. All tyrants will have to answer to Allah (SWT) one day.

Oh that's different but, Jewish lives don't matter. For the converts it's all about the Palestinians and supporting the Arabic God.

Hamas tortures protester to death and leaves body on family’s doorstep​


Uday Nasser Al Rabay was kidnapped shortly after participating in a protest
Hamas has been accused of beating a man to death and leaving him on his family’s doorstep in a warning against any further protests against its rule in the Gaza Strip.

The terror group has been the subject of rare public demonstrations against it in the territory as the war with Israel drags on, with more than 50,000 Palestinians having been killed.

Earlier this week anti-Hamas chants were heard during a wider protest against the conflict.

Uday Al Rabbay was kidnapped shortly after participating in the protest. He was returned dead and bloody to his family’s home days later.

Mazen Shat, a senior police officer affiliated with Fatah – the Palestinian nationalist group that lost control of Gaza after a brief war with Hamas in 2007 – told The Telegraph: “Uday was martyred by the criminals of Hamas. And what’s his crime? He told the truth, because he refused to be silent on injustice, because he did not kneel to Hamas.”

Mr Shat said Hamas had tortured the young man for four hours. Images showed open wounds and bruising that left their victim’s body swollen and bloody.

“Hamas is oppressing people in a brutal way,” Mr Shat said. “Like a puppy on a rope around his neck, they dragged him to the door of his house and told his family that this is the punishment for those who complain about Hamas.”

Sam Habeeb, a Gazan who now lives in London and is a former parliamentary candidate for Ealing North, told The Telegraph it was “the first time Gaza witnessed such large-scale protests” since Hamas violently took control of the Strip in 2007.

While protests have occurred over the years, including large uprisings in 2023 and 2019, they have usually been quashed quickly, with fear of violent crackdowns deterring people from coming onto the streets.

“Violent crackdowns on protesters is criminal and unacceptable,” said Mr Habeeb. “This is a heinous crime that is completely condemned. It is unacceptable to restrict the freedom of protest and kill and torture the protester Uday Al Rabai. Not all people in Gaza are part of Hamas, and they have the right to express their views freely.”
