A senior military advisor to Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, has issued a stark warning: there is no ceasefire in place, Tehran and Jerusalem remain in a state of war, and the threat of renewed conflict looms large. Yahya Rahim Safavi, a key military aide, emphasized the urgency of bolstering Iran’s military capabilities, specifically its missile, drone, and cyber capacities, as preparations escalate. In chilling terms, Safavi declared: “We are not in a ceasefire… another war may happen,” adding ominously that such a clash could unfold "at any time." His message leaves little room for optimism.

Israel’s Defense Minister Israel Katz has approved Operation Gideon’s Chariots II, a major IDF plan to capture Gaza City. Backed by Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir, the operation will call up 60,000 reservists to reinforce troops already deployed. Civilians will be evacuated south before the offensive, aimed at isolating Hamas. Families of hostages expressed concern over risks, while Egypt’s ceasefire proposal was rejected for excluding all hostages. Katz declared Israel is at a decisive stage and vowed no hostage will be left behind.

Just a day after Hamas approved a 60-day ceasefire deal, Israel launched fresh strikes across Gaza, killing at least 26 people, including women and children, according to Palestinian sources. The attacks hit displacement tents, food aid centers, and crowds waiting for supplies, sparking fears of a renewed escalation. The ceasefire, which included a partial hostage release in exchange for halting Israeli military expansion, is now in jeopardy. Analysts warn Hamas may retaliate, putting fragile peace efforts at risk once again.
