Von der Leyen and Metsola arrive in Israel in show of solidarity after Hamas attacks
The visit to Israel by the presidents of two of the EU's most important institutions comes six days after Hamas carried out its surprise land, sea and air attack in Israel, which has left more than 1,300 people dead since 7 October - more than in the entire Second Intifada - and 3,200 wounded.
Hamas has released a video showing two Israeli hostages held in GazaāElkana Bohbot and Yosef Haim Ohana, both abducted on October 7, 2023. In the footage, Bohbot appears weak and unresponsive, while Ohana urges the Israeli government to end the war and secure their release. Families of the hostages are demanding urgent action, criticizing the government for not doing enough. Outside Israelās Defense Ministry in Tel Aviv, protesters held signs reading āWe Can Save the Restā and āAll of Them Now,ā as tensions over the stalled hostage deal intensify.

Saudi Arabia is set to host the Gulf-US Summit in mid-May during former President Trumpās second-term visit, with high-stakes announcements expected. Speculation is mounting that the U.S. may back recognition of a Palestinian stateāwithout Hamasāin a move that could realign the Middle East. Economic deals, including tech and nuclear cooperation, are forecast to surpass $400 billion. With all Gulf leaders in attendance (except King Salman due to health), analysts predict this summit may reshape U.S.-Saudi ties and the regional power balance.

A massive wildfire has broken out between Nazareth and Yafa an-Naseriyye in northern Israel, rapidly spreading due to intense heat, dry vegetation, and strong winds. The blaze, which threatened residential neighborhoods, agricultural lands, and commercial zones, prompted an urgent emergency response.
Over 11 firefighting teams and three aircraft were deployed to battle the flames from both ground and air. Israel Police joined efforts to evacuate roads and safeguard critical infrastructure. Fire and Rescue officials confirmed the firefront was halted just meters from the first line of homes, averting a major catastrophe.
