Meanwhile, Israel threatens to annex the West Bank, condemning Franceâs shift as a direct aid to terrorism. This bold stance by Europeâs most powerful nation marks a dramatic escalation in the international conflict surrounding Gaza, with global pressure mounting amid a worsening humanitarian crisis.

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) are witnessing a disturbing surge in suicides, with five soldiers taking their own lives in just two weeks. This includes a 19-year-old Norwegian immigrant and a Golani Brigade serviceman, both victims of psychological trauma tied to Israelâs prolonged war in Gaza and its broader military campaigns across seven active fronts. In 2024 alone, over 20 IDF suicides have been confirmed, primarily among active-duty reservists recently returned from intense combat.
Army officials blame post-traumatic stress and long deployments for the spike. Opposition leaders are calling it a silent crisis, with thousands of soldiers withdrawing from combat roles due to mental breakdowns. Meanwhile, official numbers may underreport the true toll, as additional non-combat veteransâ deaths remain uncounted. With Israelâs military stretched thin across Gaza, Lebanon, Syria, Iran, Iraq, Yemen, and the West Bank, the cost is not only strategicâbut deeply human.

Hamas has called on Palestinians in the West Bank to rise up following deadly Israeli settler attacks, including the killing of Palestinian-American Saif Al-Din Muslat. The group blames Israelâs far-right government for escalating settler violence and is urging mass mobilization across all governorates. With over 998 Palestinians killed in the West Bank since the Gaza war began, tensions are boiling. Hamas warns that âhis blood will not be in vain,â hinting at a wider armed uprising. Israel now fears Hamas-style militant networks emerging in the West Bank.

In a dramatic global twist, Russia has declared full support for Palestinian statehood, with Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov reaffirming Moscow's long-standing commitment to a two-state solution. The statement comes on the heels of French President Emmanuel Macronâs bombshell announcement that France will recognize Palestine at the upcoming UN General Assembly in September â making it the first major Western power to do so. Russia, which adopted Palestineâs 1988 declaration of independence under the USSR, insists that peace in the Middle East hinges on UN Security Council resolutions and the establishment of a sovereign Palestinian state. Macronâs decision has enraged Israel and the U.S., with Netanyahu calling it a âreward for terrorâ and Secretary of State Marco Rubio labeling it âreckless.â Meanwhile, Saudi Arabia and Spain have praised the move, calling it âhistoric.â Over 59,000 Palestinians have died in the ongoing Gaza war, intensifying the global demand for Palestinian recognition.
