After three days of attacks, Islamic Jihad and Israel began a truce this Sunday at 11:30 p.m. that could end the worst escalation since May 2021.

US military has killed al-Qaeda leaders with a drone

The US claims to have killed one of the leaders of the terror network in Syria. According to current knowledge, civilians were not harmed.

The US military claims to have killed one of the leaders of the Al-Qaeda terrorist network in Syria. Abdul Hamid al-Matar was killed in a drone attack in northwest Syria, a spokesman for the US Central Command said on Friday. According to current knowledge, civilians were not harmed in the attack near Suluk.

USA: Al-Qaeda uses Syria as a retreat

The killing of al-Matar will affect al-Qaeda’s ability to "plan and carry out further attacks worldwide," added the army spokesman. The extremist organization continues to "pose a threat to the United States and our allies." Al-Qaeda is using Syria as a retreat to regroup and plan missions abroad.

The Israeli Opposition, One Step Away From Ousting Benjamin Netanyahu From Power

The calm with which Benjamin Netanyahu received the head of Egypt's intelligence service, Abbas Kamel, on Sunday to shore up the fragile truce with the Islamist group Hamas contrasted with the anger and anguish seen in his latest videos, pleading with the Israeli conservative Naftali Bennett not to agree with the centrist leader Yair Lapid a coalition of center and left parties.

However, it has been of no use, as Bennett announced this Sunday that he was willing to cross the Rubicon, despite strong opposition on the right and especially from the Likud. The agreement will make him - despite having only six seats in favor of his party - prime minister in the next two years, and then take over from Lapid. To avoid this, Netanyahu stepped up his pressure and offered Bennett and another Conservative leader, Gideon Saar, a triple rotation at the Head of Government.

"The political crisis in Israel is unprecedented worldwide. We can go to fifth, sixth and tenth elections and dismantle the walls of the State until our house falls on us or we can take responsibility and stop the madness," Bennett said in an expected television intervention, accusing his former boss Netanyahu of "spreading hatred" and lying when he says he has a chance to form a conservative coalition. "No one believes anymore that he will keep his promises. Mr. Netanyahu is not trying to form a right-wing government but to drag the whole country into his private mass."

Middle East Conflict: There Is Only A Future Without Hamas || Let The Palestinians Die For The Victory Of The Muslim Brotherhood

Since April there have been repeated riots between the Palestinians and the Israeli police in the Arab-dominated eastern part of Jerusalem.

After militant Palestinians fired several rocket attacks on Israel from the Gaza Strip in May, Israel responded with air strikes.

The Israeli government and the radical Islamic Hamas agreed on a ceasefire at the end of May.

One of the reasons for the riots is that the houses of Palestinian families from the Arab district of Sheikh Jarrah in East Jerusalem are to be evacuated.

If Israel withdrew completely from the West Bank, there would be chaos. A political reform of the Palestinian territories is necessary - without the terrorist group in Gaza.

Some conflicts have no solution, just a story. This applies to the conflict, which we at the same time euphemistically and exaggeratedly call the" Middle East conflict " because, for obvious reasons, "the Israel problem" does not want to cross our lips. But let's be honest: when we talk about the Middle East conflict, we don't mean the civil war in Syria, the collapse of statehood in Lebanon, the situation of the Palestinians in Jordan, and certainly not the neo-Ottoman ambitions of Turkey or Egypt's fight against the Muslim Brotherhood. We mean the Israel problem.

Zeina's testimony, interviewed by AFP the day before the ceasefire that ended on Friday the deadly confrontation between Israel and Hamas, in power in Gaza, shows on a child level a reality that is as terrifying as it is difficult to understand at this age.

"They bombarded all the time next to our house, all the streets," says Zeina. "He was afraid of dying," he says when he explains why he wrote the message for his mother.
