Israel Gaza violations
Despite a ceasefire agreement between Hamas and Israel, deadly violence has continued across the Gaza Strip. Since Tuesday morning, at least nine Palestinians have been killed, six of them in Gaza City alone. The Gaza ministry of health says in the past day, at least 44 bodies have been taken to hospitals and nearly 30 injured. Francesca Albanese, the UN Special Rapporteur on the occupied Palestinian territory has denounced Israel’s actions as a breach of the ceasefire. She called for global accountability through sanctions, divestment, and boycott until “occupation, apartheid, and genocide” come to an end. Hamas has also condemned the killings as Israel’s violation of the truce. The group urged mediators to hold Israel to its commitments under the deal.
President of war or peace?
Iran says the US president has been misled into believing that Iran's peaceful nuclear activities will be nearing weaponization this spring. Foreign minister Abbas Araghchi asserted that even US agencies have found no evidence to support such allegations. He cast doubt on the Iranian nation trusting an olive branch extended by the same hand that's bombed people’s homes? Araghchi also criticized President Trump’s dual posture, saying he cannot be a President of Peace while provoking endless wars and aligning with war criminals. He stressed Trump can either be a President of Peace or a President of War. Araghchi also reiterated Iran's openness to respectful and mutually beneficial diplomatic engagement, emphasizing the need for constructive dialogue.
'China ready to fight US trade war'
