A Palestinian man who was one of the first amputee members of a squad of para-cyclists in Gaza has been killed in an Israeli airstrike, his team has announced. Sky News
Israel intensifies its military campaign in Gaza under Operation “Gideon’s Chariots,” launching simultaneous ground assaults in both the north and south. Airstrikes overnight have killed over 100 people, with Gaza’s last northern hospitals—like the Indonesian facility—now shut down, triggering a dire medical crisis. While Israel allows limited food aid to prevent mass hunger, its strategy seeks to segment Gaza and isolate Hamas fighters. As ceasefire talks resume in Qatar, Israel insists on hostage release and Hamas disarmament, while Hamas refuses to negotiate under fire, warning escalation won’t bring peace or freedom for captives. Mediators from the U.S., Qatar, and Egypt race to salvage dialogue amid deepening violence.

At least 24 Palestinians, including women and children, were killed in an Israeli airstrike on a tent camp for displaced families in Khan Younis, Gaza. The strike came as Israel intensified its military assault over the past 72 hours, killing hundreds. Tents caught fire, and scores were wounded. Hamas condemned the attack as a “new brutal crime” and blamed the U.S. for enabling the violence. Despite renewed ceasefire talks in Doha led by Egypt, Qatar, and the U.S., no breakthrough has been reported as fighting escalates further in the enclave.

Israeli-American Edan Alexander, who has been released by Hamas after 19 months in captivity has snubbed Israeli PM Natanyahu. This despite Netanyahu hailing his release as a "very emotional moment," reports say Edan has refused a personal meeting with him, citing physical and emotional exhaustion. Edan, was freed on May 12 in what Hamas called a goodwill gesture to Donald Trump, who is currently visiting the region. The release follows complex U.S.-Israel-Qatar-Egypt negotiations and raises new hopes for the remaining hostages and potential peace talks.

Hamas has released Edan Alexander, a 21-year-old U.S.-Israeli soldier taken hostage during the October 2023 Tel Aviv attack, marking the return of the last known living American hostage. His release comes ahead of former President Donald Trump’s visit to the Middle East, signaling possible ceasefire negotiations. Trump’s envoy praised the gesture and urged Hamas to release the bodies of four other Americans. The move, facilitated by Qatar and Egypt, is seen as a step toward peace in a conflict that has left over 52,800 Palestinians dead since Israel’s counteroffensive began.

Zelensky delivered a stunning rebuke to Russian President Vladimir Putin, accusing him of being "afraid" to attend critical peace talks in Turkey. Speaking after the Istanbul summit collapsed with no major breakthroughs, Zelensky told European leaders—including French President Emmanuel Macron, UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer, and German Chancellor Friedrich Merz—that he was ready for a face-to-face meeting, but Putin chose to hide behind subordinates.

In a stunning twist, a personal trainer in Rome discovered his humble client “Robert” was none other than Pope Leo XIV. Valerio Masella trained the future pontiff—Cardinal Robert Prevost—for two years, unaware of his true identity. Known for his calm and balanced demeanor, Prevost worked out frequently, blending into gym life. The revelation came when Masella saw his former client emerge as Pope on TV. Praised for his physical fitness and humility, Pope Leo continues to inspire, even receiving a tennis racket from Italy’s Jannik Sinner this week.

Following the Arab League Summit in Baghdad, Hamas fiercely criticized Arab leaders for failing to take meaningful action as Israel’s assault on Gaza intensified. The group demanded enforcement of Riyadh resolutions, lifting of the blockade, and sanctions on Israel. Citing massacres in northern Gaza that coincided with the summit, Hamas stressed the need for urgent global solidarity. Other resistance factions echoed similar sentiments, condemning Arab regimes for hollow statements and complicity in genocide. The factions emphasized that real intervention, not symbolism, is urgently needed to halt the humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza.

The 34th Arab League Summit in Baghdad is dominated by Gaza’s unfolding humanitarian catastrophe. Iraq’s PM labelled Israel’s actions “genocide,” pledging $40 million for Gaza and Lebanon’s reconstruction. The summit follows President Trump’s controversial Gaza remarks during his Middle East tour. Leaders including Mahmoud Abbas and UN chief Guterres demand an immediate ceasefire, aid access, and legal accountability. Spain announced plans to push the ICC to examine Israel’s compliance with aid delivery laws, intensifying diplomatic pressure.

In a surprising diplomatic twist, Iran has proposed a joint nuclear enrichment venture involving the U.S. and Arab nations, according to a New York Times report. The plan was reportedly pitched by Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi during back-channel talks in Oman as an alternative to President Trump’s demand to dismantle Iran’s entire nuclear program. While the U.S. envoy denied such a proposal was made, Tehran maintains uranium enrichment is non-negotiable. The talks come amid soaring tensions over Gaza, maritime attacks, and Iran’s growing uranium stockpile.
