#Netanyahu will now be under domestic pressure to get the rest of the #hostages freed but faces growing political risks. Several far-right parties that are part of the ruling coalition on Tuesday evening opposed the proposed deal and called for the Israeli offensive in #Gaza to be intensified to secure better terms. Their statements prompted protests in Tel Aviv by hostages families.

In our First Edition newsletter today, #ArchieBland has spoken to #DanielLevy, president of the US / Middle East Project and an Israeli peace negotiator under prime ministers #YitzhakRabin and #EhudBarak, about what it will take to get the hostages out – and why both sides are considering it when each has so much to lose:

I was surprised Hamas was willing to release so many (70) hostages in one go. Turns out 25 are Thais, they'll hold on to the ones belonging to nations seen as hostile or unsympathetic to their cause as long as possible. #Thailand #Israel

Thai Muslim politicians said they had received assurances from #Hamas that all of the Thai hostages being held would be among those released if mediators succeed in brokering a truce in #Gaza, Reuters reports.

#Hospitals are protected buildings under international #HumanitarianLaw. But allegations that Shifa is also being used for military purposes complicated the situation because that would also breach international law, UN officials have said.

Medical units used for acts harmful to the enemy, and which have ignored a warning to stop doing so, lose their special protection under international law.

The #WHO expressed “grave concern” for the safety of everyone trapped in al-Shifa by the fighting and said it had lost communications with its contacts there.

Israeli def min Yoav Gallant visit the troops on the Gaza border, he said: "There is no forgiveness for this thing. Only total annihilation of Hamas organisation - terror infrastructures, everything that has to do with terrorists and whoever sent them.

"It will take a week, it will take a month, it will take two months, until we eliminate them. You are not alone in battle," he told infantry troops, who are awaiting the start of an expected ground operation in the enclave.

Egyptian state media say the Rafah Crossing into Gaza will be opened for several hours on Friday to allow the delivery of desperately needed aid.

The US wants to see "sustained humanitarian assistance" going into Gaza and is "watching carefully" to see aid does not benefit Hamas", according to State Department spokesman, Matthew Miller.

Upon arrival in #Israel, Rishi #Sunak told reporters at Tel Aviv airport that the #Hamas attacks on 7 October were an "unspeakable, horrific act of terrorism", and he reiterated that the UK stands with Israel.

"I'm very much looking forward to my meetings later with the prime minister and president and I very much hope they'll be productive meetings," Sunak said.


the #IDF says it killed Rafat Abu Hilal, the head of the military wing of the Popular Resistance Committees - the third largest armed faction in the #Gaza Strip after #Hamas and #Palestinian Islamic Jihad #PIJ.

The IDF says it carried out the airstrike on the southern Gaza city of #Rafah following information received from the Shin Bet intelligence service.


Paul said while he recognised the "monstrosity" of #Hamas's attack on #Israel, he also believed Israel's response "will only lead to more and deeper suffering" for #Israelis and #Palestinians.


#IDF says that it destroyed "hundreds of #Hamas terrorist infrastructures" over the past day.

In a post on X the IDF said it "continues to attack all the time throughout the #Gaza Strip", adding that it destroyed "anti-tank missile launch sites, tunnel shafts, intelligence infrastructures, operational headquarters and other headquarters".

It also claims that "over ten terrorists were also eliminated".

Arab states continue to blame Israel for the explosion which left at least 471 people dead

The United States vetoed a UN Security Council vote calling for humanitarian pauses in Gaza, a move that was condemned by other members including Russia, China and the UAE


'Even though the US president has negotiated access for desperately needed aid into the besieged enclave, his visit will tie him to the results of Israel’s military campaign there.

Protesters in Arab capitals have already accused Washington of giving #Israel a green light.

Some are chanting “Death to America,” including in Bahrain, a close American ally and one of only two Arab states to explicitly condemn the #Hamas attack".'


BBC state dept corr Barbara Plett-Usher:
'Even more than Joe #Biden ’s emotional words of support, the photo of him hugging the #Israeli PM #Netanyahu has placed him solidly in #Israel ’s corner at the most explosive moment in its war with #Hamas

No matter who fired the rocket which killed hundreds of people at the Al-#Ahli hospital in #Gaza , this image will reinforce Arab anger not only towards Israel, but the US.'
