‘Disarmament Is Not…’ Hamas Refuses To Disarm Without Palestinian State | Hostage Crisis EXPLODES [Video]

‘Disarmament Is Not…’ Hamas Refuses To Disarm Without Palestinian State | Hostage Crisis EXPLODES

Tensions in the Middle East escalated as Hamas declared it will not disarm unless a fully sovereign Palestinian state is established with Jerusalem as its capital. This declaration came after U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff claimed Hamas showed willingness to lay down arms—an assertion Hamas quickly rejected. Israel, meanwhile, maintains disarmament as a non-negotiable precondition for any ceasefire deal. As ceasefire negotiations stall, pressure builds from Western and Arab nations urging Hamas to give up arms. Meanwhile, a shocking video of Israeli hostage Evyatar David emaciated in captivity triggered a fresh wave of outrage. The humanitarian crisis in Gaza deepens, with UN agencies reporting hundreds killed while seeking aid. U.S. envoy Witkoff, currently in Israel, has met with hostage families and criticized partial peace plans. With over 60,000 deaths in Gaza and starvation rising, global calls intensify for an urgent resolution to end the bloodshed. #gaza #hamas #israel #trump #witkoff #hostagecrisis #ceasefire #gazawar #palestine #netanyahu #usenvoy #twostatesolution #humanitariancatastrophe #gazafamine #idf #reconstruction #telavivprotests #gazaceasefire #hamasdisarmament #middleeastpeace ~HT.410~GR.124~ED.102~

‘Sanctions Don’t Bother Him’ Trump Drops BOMBSHELL Over Russia-Ukraine War | Zelenksy Loses War? [Video]

‘Sanctions Don’t Bother Him’ Trump Drops BOMBSHELL Over Russia-Ukraine War | Zelenksy Loses War?

President Donald Trump has admitted that new U.S. sanctions on Russia might not have any effect on Vladimir Putin — but is moving ahead with them anyway. Trump slashed the peace window for a Ukraine deal from 50 days to just 10, warning of brutal economic penalties if Moscow doesn't comply. These include up to 100% tariffs and potential secondary sanctions on countries doing business with Russia. While Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov downplayed the threats, saying Russia has developed “sanctions immunity,” Trump’s frustration is mounting. The president also announced that special envoy Steve Witkoff will soon travel to Russia following visits to Israel and Gaza. Trump’s acting UN envoy confirmed a ceasefire deadline: August 8. Despite over 10,000 sanctions already in place since the 2014 Ukraine crisis, Putin maintains the West has failed to break Russia’s economy. The standoff is reaching a boiling point. #Trump #Putin #RussiaSanctions #UkraineWar #USRussiaTensions #100PercentTariffs #CeasefireDeadline #Witkoff #Peskov #TrumpPutinShowdown #UkrainePeaceDeal #SecondarySanctions #EconomicWar #SanctionsFail #TrumpWarning #VladimirPutin #SanctionedNation #RussiaImmunity #TrumpSpeech #USForeignPolicy ~ED.102~HT.408~GR.125~
