The protesters continue to demand that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu should resign - but not before he has signed up to a deal with Hamas to secure the release of the hostages. There are believed to be about 132 hostages in Gaza - but it's not clear whether some may have died in the midst of the war. Earlier this week, Hamas said it had accepted a Qatari-Egyptian cease-fire deal that would end the war and bring about the phased release of some of the Israeli hostages held in Gaza. Israel swiftly rejected the deal, saying it did not meet “core demands,” and hours later sent tanks to capture...

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Thursday that a US threat to withhold some arms would not prevent Israel from continuing its offensive in Gaza, indicating it might proceed with an invasion of the packed city of Rafah against the wishes of its closest ally. President Joe Biden has urged Israel not to go ahead with such an operation over fears it would exacerbate the humanitarian catastrophe in the Palestinian enclave. On Wednesday, he said the United States would not provide offensive weapons for a Rafah offensive, raising pressure on Netanyahu. But in a statement released Thursday, N...

One of the more startling things about the current wave of pro-Palestinian demonstrations in the US and Europe is the extent to which they — perhaps unknowingly — echo the Hamas ideology as they chant, “From the River to the Sea, Palestine shall be free”. The progressive-left position that seems to dominate these demonstrations is not that Israel should withdraw from the occupied territories, not a two-state solution, and not “land for peace”. It is the abolition of Israel and its replacement by what they see as Palestine. How did this happen? It seems to have come as a total surprise to many ...

Israelis protested on Saturday night, calling for a ceasefire and the resignation of hardline Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Tens of thousands took to the streets in Tel Aviv to demand that the government reach a deal with Hamas to secure the release of Israeli hostages in Gaza. They also called for new elections, accusing Netanyahu of prolonging the conflict to keep himself in power. Netanyahu's government - seen as the most right-wight in Israel's history - insists it will not stop the war until the Palestinian militant group has been "annihilated". "We hope the world hears us and knows ...

Israeli airstrikes on the southern Gaza city of Rafah have killed at least 22 people, including six women and five children, according to Palestinian health officials. One of the children killed in the strikes overnight into Monday was just 5 days old. The strikes hit three family homes with those killed taken to Abu Yousef al-Najjar Hospital. Israel has carried out regular airstrikes in Rafah since the beginning of the war and has threatened to send in ground troops. Israel has maintained that Rafah is the last major Hamas stronghold in Gaza, despite other nations, including the US, warning t...

Israeli media are reporting the government has received indications from legal officials that the International Criminal Court is considering issuing arrest warrants for senior officials, including prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The ICC is currently investigating Israel’s actions in the occupied West Bank and the Gaza Strip. The ICC case is separate from other cases brought against Israel at the International Court of Justice, including one filed by South Africa accusing Israel of committing genocide in Gaza. In addition to Netanyahu, the ICC investigation could lead to arrest warrants bei...

The White House on Sunday said US President Joe Biden had again spoken with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu as pressure builds on Israel and Hamas to reach a deal that would free some Israeli hostages and bring a ceasefire in the nearly seven-month-long war in Gaza. The White House said that Biden reiterated his “clear position” as Israel plans to invade Gaza’s southernmost city of Rafah despite global concern for more than 1 million Palestinians sheltering there. The US opposes the invasion on humanitarian grounds, straining relations between the allies. US Secretary of State Antony...

A statement from Israeli intelligence agency Mossad said ''The rejection of the proposal by the three mediators, which included the most significant flexibility on Israel's part, proves that (Yahya) Sinwar does not want a humanitarian deal and the return of the hostages, is continuing to exploit the tension with Iran, and is striving to unite the sectors and achieve a general escalation in the region.'' The statement was published on the Prime Minister's Office web page. Yahya Sinwar is the highest-ranking Hamas official in Gaza and the territory's de facto ruler. The statement also said Israe...

Thousands of ultra-Orthodox Jewish men protested in Jerusalem on Thursday over a court ruling that could end their exemptions from mandatory service in the Israeli military. Carrying signs that read “to jail, not to the army,” they rallied in front of Israel’s military enlistment office. There were scuffles between police and some protesters. Israel’s Supreme Court last month ordered an end to government subsidies for many ultra-Orthodox men who do not serve in the army. The ruling could have far-reaching consequences for the government and the tens of thousands of religious men who refuse to ...
