Gaza War: US skips congressional review for emergency sale of tank shells to Israel | Oneindia News
The US State Department has reportedly approved the sale of 13,000 rounds of tank ammunition to Israel.
This decision, worth over $106 million, has raised eyebrows as it bypasses the usual congressional review process required for arms sales to foreign nations.
Iran's Foreign Minister, Hossein Amir-Abdollahian, disclosed that the West urged Iran to temper its response before the strikes on Israeli-held territories. Despite Western pressure, Iran remained resolute, launching Operation True Promise in retaliation for Israel's attack on Iran's embassy in Damascus. Amir-Abdollahian emphasized Iran's independent decision-making and readiness for dialogue, cautioning against Israeli hardliners' preference for perpetual conflict.

widely-supported resolution was backed
by 12 of 15 Security Council members. .
The United Kingdom and Switzerland
both abstained from the vote,
while the U.S. opposed the measure.
AP reports that Palestine's broad support reflects the
growing international concern for Palestinians facing
a humanitarian crisis amid the ongoing war in Gaza.
AP reports that Palestine's broad support reflects the

The resolution would have made Palestine
the 194th member of the United Nations. .
Deputy Ambassador Robert Wood stressed to the
Security Council that the U.S. veto of the resolution... .
... âdoes not reflect opposition to Palestinian statehood
but instead is an acknowledgment that it will only
come from direct negotiations between the parties.â.
Similarly, deputy State Department
spokesman Vedant Patel said that the U.S. has...
... âbeen very clear consistently that premature actions
in New York â even with the best intentions â will
not achieve statehood for the Palestinian people.â.
In response to the failed vote, Palestinian U.N.
Ambassador Riyad Mansour told the council that
the decision would not deter the Palestinian people.
The fact that this resolution did not
pass will not break our will and it
will not defeat our determination, Riyad Mansour, Palestinian U.N. Ambassador, via Associated Press.
We will not stop in our effort.
The state of Palestine is inevitable.
It is real. Perhaps they see it as
far away, but we see it as near, Riyad Mansour, Palestinian U.N. Ambassador, via Associated Press

Israel announced the reopening of the Kerem Shalom border crossing to facilitate the delivery of humanitarian aid to Gaza, just four days after its closure following a rocket attack that tragically claimed the lives of four soldiers. In a collaborative effort between the Israeli army and COGAT, the defence ministry body responsible for Palestinian civil affairs, trucks loaded with vital supplies such as food, water, shelter equipment, medicine, and medical supplies, generously donated by the international community, have begun arriving at the crossing from Egypt.
These essential supplies will undergo thorough inspection before being transferred to the Gaza side of the crossing, ensuring their safe and efficient delivery to those in need. Additionally, the statement highlighted the reopening of the Erez border crossing between Israel and northern Gaza, further facilitating the flow of aid into the Palestinian territory. This swift response underscores Israel's commitment to addressing the humanitarian needs of the people of Gaza, even in the face of security challenges, and demonstrates a willingness to engage in cooperative efforts to alleviate suffering and promote stability in the region.

Hamasâs armed wing said that the commander of its forces in the Tulkarem area of the West Bank was among four members of the group killed during a day-long Israeli raid in the town of Dayr al-Ghusun. A statement from the Izzaldin al-Qassam Brigades names Alaa Shreiteh, 45, as commander of the al-Qassam Brigades in the Tulkarem governorate. Shreiteh was jailed by Israel between 2002 and 2016. According to the IDF, there was a twelve-hour gun battle in the Tulkarem area of the West Bank between its forces and Hamas militants in which four Hamas men were killed. However, the identity of Alaa Shreiteh was revealed by the al-Qassim brigade early on Sunday. Hamas confirmed that four of the men killed during the raid in Deir al-Ghusun village were from its al-Qassam armed wing. The Palestinian health ministry said their bodies had been taken by the Israeli military. There was no information about the fifth man, whose body was too disfigured for immediate identification, the Palestinian health ministry in the West Bank said.
