‘A Living Skeleton’: Hostage’s Brother TEARS Into Hamas at UN; Slams CHILLING ‘Propaganda’ Video

At a tense United Nations session, the brother of an Israeli hostage delivered an emotional and scathing address, condemning Hamas over a chilling ‘propaganda’ video that showed his sibling looking frail and emaciated — “a living skeleton.” His powerful words drew global attention to the plight of hostages and the psychological warfare at play, as he urged world leaders to act decisively. #HamasHostageVideo #Hamas #Israel #GazaWar #UNSilenceComplicit #HostageBrotherSpeaks #ExposeHamasCruelty #UNFailingHostages #StopPropagandaLies #ReleaseHostagesNow #StarvationIsTorture #HumanitarianAlarm #WitnessTestimony #ChillingTruthUN #GlobalComplicity #HostageCrisis #BrothersPleaAtUN #HorrorUnderPropaganda Also Read Israel's Troop Presence in Gaza Complicates Ceasefire Negotiations with Hamas :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israel-troops-gaza-complicates-truce-talks-011-7796581.html?ref=DMDesc Hamas Leader Muhammad Sinwar Killed In Israel's Air Strike :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/hamas-leader-muhammad-sinwar-killed-in-israels-air-strike-4156915.html?ref=DMDesc Hamas Releases US-Israeli Hostage Edan Alexander Ahead of Trump’s Middle East Visit :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/hamas-releases-us-israeli-hostage-edan-alexander-ahead-of-trump-s-middle-east-visit-4151571.html?ref=DMDesc ~PR.152~HT.408~ED.420~GR.122~

Caught on Cam: Israeli Forces Block Aid Trucks to Gaza | Starvation Deepens, UN Warns of Famine

Shocking video footage shows Israeli settlers and security forces physically blocking humanitarian aid trucks from entering Gaza as the enclave faces catastrophic famine. The United Nations and Danish Refugee Council warn that 70% of Gazans are now too weak to reach aid, with starvation and psychological trauma spreading across the population. The IDF reportedly killed 83 Palestinians during recent operations, as food deliveries remain restricted. Meanwhile, Germany’s BILD targets a Palestinian journalist, accusing him of staging “Hamas propaganda” — despite evidence showing the photos were taken during real aid distribution. As pressure mounts globally, Israel faces growing accusations of weaponizing starvation in its war on Gaza. #GazaFamine #AidBlocked #IsraelGaza #StarvationCrisis #UNWarning #IDF #SettlersBlockAid #HumanitarianCrisis #Palestine #GazaUnderSiege #BreakingNews #MiddleEastConflict #WarCrimes #PropagandaDebate #BeitLahia #GazaCrisis ~HT.178~PR.274~ED.103~GR.124~

Nikki Haley SLAMS Trump tariff threat to India over Russia| ‘Don't burn ties & give China free pass'

Nikki Haley has sharply criticized Donald Trump’s proposed tariffs on Indian goods over New Delhi’s Russian oil purchases, calling the move "strategically dangerous." In a viral post on ‘X’, the former UN Ambassador warned Trump not to “burn a relationship with a strong ally like India” while giving China a tariff pause. Haley emphasized the importance of U.S.-India ties amid rising Chinese influence in the Indo-Pacific, exposing deep divisions within the GOP on trade and foreign policy strategy. #NikkiHaley #TrumpTariffs #IndiaUSRelations #RussiaOil #ChinaPolicy #GOPDivide #HaleyVsTrump #StrategicAlliance #IndoPacific #EnergySecurity #TrumpVsIndia #ForeignPolicy #TariffThreat #GlobalTrade #USIndiaTies #HaleySpeaksOut #WhiteHouse #BreakingNews #Geopolitics #EconomicSanctions #TradeWar #HaleyOnTrump #ChinaInfluence #TariffPolitics #AmericaFirst #RussiaTies #TrumpBacklash #XPost #IndiaTrade #HaleyWarning Also Read Trump-Modi, Negotiate Like Real Friends: Singer Mary Millben's Advice To India-US Amid Tariff Threat :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-modi-negotiate-like-real-friends-singer-mary-millbens-advice-to-india-us-amid-tariff-threat-7821507.html?ref=DMDesc Don't Know Anything About It: Trump On India's Claims On US Buying Russian Chemicals, Fertilizers :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/dont-know-anything-about-it-trump-on-indias-claims-on-us-buying-russian-chemicals-fertilizers-7821499.html?ref=DMDesc Kremlin Hits Out At US Prez Trump For Threatening India For Buying Russian Oil :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/kremlin-hits-out-at-us-prez-trump-for-threatening-india-for-buying-russian-oil-7821423.html?ref=DMDesc
