Palestine to be a NATION-STATE in September? | Mahmoud Abbas likely to make BIG ANNOUNCEMENT at UN

Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas is expected to announce a unilateral declaration of Palestinian statehood at the September UN General Assembly, outlining borders and constitutional principles until a full constitution is passed. France, the UK, and other nations signal possible recognition, with President Macron pledging support. Israel’s National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir has condemned the plan, urging Netanyahu to dismantle the PA. The move could mark a turning point in Palestine’s international recognition strategy, but risks sparking intense political backlash. #Palestine #Statehood #MahmoudAbbas #UNGA #France #UK #MiddleEast #Israel #BenGvir #Netanyahu #StateRecognition #BreakingNews #PalestineState #MiddleEastPolitics #PLO #PalestinianAuthority #Macron #InternationalRecognition #Gaza #Diplomacy #PeaceProcess #IsraelPalestine #UNGeneralAssembly #GlobalPolitics #HumanRights #PoliticalBacklash #MiddleEastPeace #PalestineNews #Recognition #TwoStateSolution Also Read France's Recognition of Palestine Could Influence Future Middle East Dynamics :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/france-recognition-state-palestine-middle-east-dynamics-011-7810889.html?ref=DMDesc 'Azad Kashmir', 'Free Palestine' Graffiti At Jadavpur University Triggers Row :: https://www.oneindia.com/kolkata/azad-kashmir-free-palestine-graffiti-at-jadavpur-university-triggers-row-4091993.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Announces Withdrawal From UN Human Rights Body, Halts Funding For Palestinian Refugees :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-announces-withdrawal-from-un-human-rights-body-halts-funding-for-palestinian-refugees-4062559.html?ref=DMDesc

‘DISMANTLE Palestinian Authority!!’ Israel’s EXPLOSIVE Warning Ahead of UN General Assembly Of Sept [Video]

‘DISMANTLE Palestinian Authority!!’ Israel’s EXPLOSIVE Warning Ahead of UN General Assembly Of Sept

Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir has called on Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to take “immediate” steps to topple the Palestinian Authority (PA). In a fiery statement, Ben Gvir said this was the only suitable response to Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas’s reported plan to unilaterally declare a Palestinian state during the UN General Assembly in September. He labeled Abbas a “terrorist” and the PA a “terror authority,” demanding its dismantling without delay. His comments follow reports from Al-Arabi Al-Jadeed that Abbas is preparing a bold diplomatic move as several nations prepare to recognize Palestinian statehood during the UN gathering in New York. The push comes amid escalating tensions in the region, as far-right Israeli leaders push for aggressive measures against Palestinian political leadership. Netanyahu has yet to respond publicly, but the call adds pressure on Israel’s cabinet to take a definitive stance ahead of the high-profile international event. #BenGvir #Netanyahu #PalestinianAuthority #Israel #Palestine #MahmoudAbbas #UNGA #Statehood #MiddleEast #BreakingNews #Politics #Diplomacy #UN #Jerusalem #Gaza #WestBank #FarRight #IsraelPolitics #PeaceProcess #InternationalRelations.

Gaza Latest: Hamas BLASTS Netanyahu’s ‘Propaganda Gaza Aid’ Amid Soaring Child Death Toll In Gaza

Hamas has fiercely condemned Israel’s limited humanitarian airdrops in Gaza, branding them a “deceptive” ploy to manage — not end — starvation in the besieged enclave. The Palestinian group accused Tel Aviv of using such aid theatrics to mask ongoing war crimes, including the blockade that has led to over 122 starvation deaths — 83 of them children. As the food crisis deepens, with over 100,000 children at risk, Gaza’s Government Media Office has warned of a catastrophic famine. Meanwhile, therapeutic food supplies are almost exhausted, threatening thousands more. Australia’s Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has declared the Israeli siege in violation of international law. At least 11 displaced people were injured after aid parcels fell on tents. Since October 7, 2023, over 59,733 Palestinians — mostly women and children — have been killed in Gaza, with 144,477 injured. The siege, starvation, and blockade continue — and so does the international outcry. #GazaSiege #IsraelPalestineConflict #GazaStarvation #HamasStatement #AidCrisis #IsraelWarCrimes #ChildStarvation #GazaBlockade #UNAlert #FamineInGaza #AustraliaOnGaza #HumanitarianDisaster #TherapeuticFoodShortage #MalnutritionCrisis #GazaInjuries #NetanyahuWarCabinet #UNAidAppeal #CeasefireNow #GazaAidDrop #PalestinianChildren ~HT.410~ED.103~GR.124~

Israel opens another WAR FRONT? Troops advance into Syria’s Strategic Southwestern province Quneitra

Israeli forces launched multiple ground incursions into Syria’s southwestern Quneitra province, setting up checkpoints, searching residents, and deploying tanks before withdrawing hours later. According to Syrian state media, IDF convoys entered several towns, breaching the 1974 ceasefire agreement that established a buffer zone near the occupied Golan Heights. Damascus and its allies accuse Israel of exploiting Syria’s instability for territorial gains. The United Nations has condemned repeated Israeli violations, warning they risk escalating regional tensions and destabilizing the volatile Syria–Israel border. #Israel #Syria #Quneitra #GolanHeights #MiddleEast #IDF #BreakingNews #CeasefireViolation #1974Ceasefire #UNCondemnation #SyrianWar #Damascus #InternationalLaw #IsraelNews #SyriaNews #BorderTensions #MilitaryIncursion #IDFForces #RegionalTensions #WarFront #IsraelSyria #GolanConflict #MilitaryNews #Flashpoint #Geopolitics #UNWarning #MiddleEastCrisis #OccupiedTerritory #ConflictZone #SecurityBreach #GroundIncursion Also Read Netanyahu Lists 5 Principles To End Gaza War, Slams ‘Global Campaign Of Lies :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israel-gaza-liberation-hamas-prime-minister-netanyahu-011-7825831.html?ref=DMDesc Not Going To Occupy Gaza, Will Free It From Hamas: Israel PM Netanyahu :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/not-going-to-occupy-gaza-will-free-it-from-hamas-israel-pm-netanyahu-011-7824689.html?ref=DMDesc Israeli Security Cabinet Approves Netanyahu's Plan To Take Over 'All of Gaza' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israeli-security-cabinet-approves-netanyahus-plan-to-take-over-all-of-gaza-011-7823673.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.178~GR.124~

Trump Nominates Tammy Bruce To UN Post In Bold ‘America First’ Move Amid Foreign Policy Battles

President Donald Trump has nominated State Department spokesperson and longtime Fox News contributor Tammy Bruce as the next U.S. deputy representative to the United Nations. Bruce, a fierce defender of Trump’s “America First” policies, has served as State Department spokesperson since his inauguration in January. Known for defending the administration’s tough stances on immigration, Russia’s war in Ukraine, and Israel’s Gaza offensive, Bruce is expected to bring combative rhetoric to the UN stage. Her appointment will require Senate confirmation, where Republicans hold a majority. Trump praised her “fantastic job” at State, while Bruce called the role an honor and vowed to continue advancing U.S. priorities abroad. She will serve under Mike Waltz, Trump’s pick for UN envoy, whose confirmation is pending. The move signals Trump’s push for loyalist voices in high-profile diplomatic posts at a time of intense geopolitical tensions. #Trump #TammyBruce #UnitedNations #USPolitics #AmericaFirst #FoxNews #ForeignPolicy #SenateConfirmation #MikeWaltz #GazaWar #UkraineWar #Russia #Israel #ImmigrationPolicy #UNDiplomacy #WhiteHouse #PoliticalAppointments #USNews #GlobalPolitics #BreakingNews ~HT.178~GR.124~ED.346~

Is U.S Fueling Lebanon’s Next Civil War? Hezbollah Disarmament Turns Deadly As Six Soldiers Dead [Video]

Is U.S Fueling Lebanon’s Next Civil War? Hezbollah Disarmament Turns Deadly As Six Soldiers Dead

Six Lebanese soldiers were killed on Saturday in a powerful explosion at a Hezbollah weapons depot in Wadi Zibqin, near the Israeli border. The Lebanese army said troops were dismantling munitions from the Iran-backed group’s facility when the blast occurred. The tragedy comes just days after Beirut announced a plan to disarm Hezbollah by year’s end under heavy U.S. pressure, a move strongly opposed by both Hezbollah and Iran. UN peacekeepers recently uncovered fortified tunnels and large weapons caches in the same area. The incident underscores the volatile climate in southern Lebanon despite last year’s ceasefire with Israel, which mandated that only Lebanese state forces hold arms. Israeli strikes on Hezbollah targets have continued, further inflaming tensions. Investigations are underway into the cause of the deadly blast as leaders mourn the fallen soldiers. #Lebanon #Hezbollah #LebaneseArmy #Blast #Explosion #IsraeliBorder #Iran #US #UNIFIL #MiddleEast #Tyre #WadiZibqin #WeaponsDepot #Israel #LebaneseSoldiers #Ceasefire #Disarmament #Tensions #War #Military ~HT.178~GR.124~ED.346~

Israel BLASTS UK, France, Canada for ‘Rewarding Terror’— Palestinian State Move Is a Gift to Hamas? [Video]

Israel BLASTS UK, France, Canada for ‘Rewarding Terror’— Palestinian State Move Is a Gift to Hamas?

Israel is furious. Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar has condemned the recent moves by the UK, France, and Canada to recognize a Palestinian state — calling it a “pure prize for terror” and a “gift to Hamas.” Speaking at a press conference in Jerusalem, Saar slammed the announcements as “immoral” and “politically foolish,” warning that these decisions reward the very actors responsible for ongoing violence. The statement comes amid growing international outrage over the humanitarian crisis in Gaza — but Israel argues that such recognition sends the wrong message and emboldens terrorism. As September’s U.N. General Assembly approaches, global divisions over the Israel-Palestine war are reaching a boiling point. #Israel #GideonSaar #PalestineRecognition #UKFranceCanada #Hamas #MiddleEastCrisis #GiftToHamas #IsraelVsWest #JerusalemPressConference #UNGeneralAssembly #TwoStateSolution #WestBank #GazaWar #PoliticalTensions #OneindiaNews Also Read Trump Claims Canada's Recognition of Palestinian State Complicates Trade Negotiations :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-uses-canada-palestinian-state-recognition-leverage-trade-talks-011-7817517.html?ref=DMDesc Far-Right Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir's Visit to Jerusalem Site Stirs Controversy :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/far-right-minister-itamar-ben-gvir-controversial-visit-jerusalem-011-3831673.html?ref=DMDesc Israel's First Reaction On Ireland And Norway Over Recognition Of Palestinian State :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israels-first-reaction-on-ireland-and-norway-over-recognition-of-palestinian-state-3831297.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~PR.274~

‘Finish Hamas Or Step Down’: Far-right Ministers Threaten Netanyahu’s PM Seat Over Gaza War Strategy

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is facing a major political crisis as far-right leaders within his coalition threaten to quit, demanding harsher action against Hamas. Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich and other right-wing figures have voiced distrust in Netanyahu’s Gaza strategy, calling for the complete destruction of Hamas rather than partial measures. Lawmakers like Zvi Sukkot and Yitzhak Kroizer argue Netanyahu’s approach risks forcing negotiations instead of total victory. With pressure mounting and the Gaza war dragging on, Netanyahu’s grip on power grows increasingly fragile. #Netanyahu #IsraelPolitics #GazaWar #Hamas #IsraelNews #MiddleEast #PoliticalCrisis #CoalitionGovernment #FarRight #Smotrich #ZviSukkot #Kroizer #IsraeliPM #IsraelWar #GazaConflict #IsraelUpdates #PoliticalShowdown #NetanyahuCrisis #MiddleEastNews #IsraelDefense #WarInGaza #IsraeliPolitics #NetanyahuVsFarRight #PMPosition #BreakingNews #IsraelCoalition #WarStrategy #IsraelLeadership #GazaCity #NetanyahuUnderFire Also Read Israel Kills 5 Al Jazeera Journalist In Gaza :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israel-kills-5-al-jazeera-journalist-in-gaza-011-7826025.html?ref=DMDesc Netanyahu Lists 5 Principles To End Gaza War, Slams ‘Global Campaign Of Lies :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israel-gaza-liberation-hamas-prime-minister-netanyahu-011-7825831.html?ref=DMDesc Not Going To Occupy Gaza, Will Free It From Hamas: Israel PM Netanyahu :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/not-going-to-occupy-gaza-will-free-it-from-hamas-israel-pm-netanyahu-011-7824689.html?ref=DMDesc
