     Palestinians flee again as Israeli tanks advance in Rafah

     Reuters Videos

     STORY: :: Palestinians are fleeing again as Israeli tanks advance in Rafah :: Al-Mawasi, Gaza :: June 13, 2024 :: Sami, Displaced Palestinian "We have been displaced for nine months. We were in the city of Rafah for eight months, a month and a half later we've been displaced - we can't anymore. May God protect the people of the north too, it's the same story - people's situation is terrible. Every day they tell you 'tomorrow there are negotiations, tomorrow there are negotiations' - solve this for us. I eat sand every day, I am sleeping on sand. People are not eating, there is nothing to encourage you to live. It's sinful. The world outside needs to see our situation and the situation of the Muslims - every day negotiations, everyday negotiations, who are you lying to? Solve this for us. We are emotionally tired. They tell you to leave this place and go to the city of Khan Younis, from the city of Khan Younis to Rafah - we feel like we are like toys." Israeli tanks advanced deeper into the western area of Rafah, amid one of the worst nights of bombardment from air, ground, and sea, forcing many families to flee their homes and tents under darkness, residents said on Thursday. The Israeli military denied in a statement it had launched any strikes inside the Al-Mawasi humanitarian zone. Israel said its assault aimed to wipe out Hamas' last intact combat units in Rafah, a city which had sheltered more than a million people before the latest advance began. Most of those people have now moved north towards Khan Younis and Deir Al-Balah in central Gaza Strip.

     Gaza killings amount to crime against humanity: UN probe

     Reuters Videos

     STORY: :: Gaza City, Gaza Both Israel and Hamas had committed war crimes in the early stages of the war in Gaza, a U.N. inquiry found on Wednesday (June 12). It also says Israel's actions constituted crimes against humanity because of the immense civilian losses. ::Beeri, Israel The findings were from two parallel reports published by the U.N. Commission of Inquiry. One focusing on the October 7 Hamas attacks, ::Gaza City, Gaza and another on Israel's military response in Gaza. Israel did not cooperate with the commission, which it says has an anti-Israeli bias. Israel's diplomatic mission to the U.N. in Geneva rejected the findings. Hamas did not immediately respond to a request for comment. ::Beeri, Israel According to Israeli tallies, 1,200 people were killed and about 250 were taken hostage in the October 7 attack. ::Rafah, Gaza The Palestinian health ministry says the military retaliation in Gaza has since killed over 37,000 people. The reports, which cover the conflict through to the end of December, found that both sides committed war crimes... ....including torture; murder or wilful killing; outrages upon personal dignity; and inhuman or cruel treatment. The report added Israel also committed additional war crimes including starvation as a method of warfare. ::Khan Younis, Gaza The COI statement said some of the war crimes such as murder also constituted crime against humanity by Israel. Using a term reserved for the most serious international crimes knowingly committed as part of a widespread or systematic attack against civilians. ::Re'im, Israel On the report on the October 7 attack, the commission verified four incidents of mass killings in public shelters. It said that suggests militants had "standing operational instructions." It also identified "a pattern of sexual violence" by Palestinian armed groups but could not independently verify reports of rape. The evidence gathered by such U.N.-mandated bodies has sometimes formed the basis for war crimes prosecutions and could be drawn on by the International Criminal Court. ::Israel Defense Ministry In May, the ICC prosecutor's office has requested arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his defense chief Yoav Gallant. The COI findings will be discussed by the U.N. Human Rights Council in Geneva next week.

     Blinken: Some of Hamas' proposed ceasefire deal changes are unworkable

     Reuters Videos

     STORY: :: Blinken says Hamas' response to a ceasefire deal includes some unworkable changes :: Antony Blinken, U.S. Secretary of State "We were waiting on one response, and that was the response from Hamas. And as the Prime Minister said, last night we received a response. Hamas has proposed numerous changes to the proposal that was on the table. We discussed those changes last night with Egyptian colleagues and today with the Prime Minister. Some of the changes are workable, some are not." :: June 12, 2024 :: Doha, Qatar "But in the days ahead, we are going to continue to push, on an urgent basis, with our partners, with Qatar, with Egypt, to try to close this deal. Because we know it's in the interest of Israelis, Palestinians, the region, indeed the entire world. And, we all agree, that the deal has to be grounded in the principles of the ceasefire proposal that the entire international community supports." "I can't speak for Hamas or answer for Hamas, and ultimately, it may not be the path that Hamas wants to pursue. But Hamas cannot and will not be allowed to decide the future for this region and its people." Hamas formally responded on Tuesday to a U.S. ceasefire proposal outlined by U.S. President Joe Biden on May 31 that envisages a ceasefire and phased release of Israeli hostages in Gaza in exchange for Palestinians jailed in Israel, ultimately leading to a permanent end to the war. A Hamas official told Reuters the response reaffirmed its stance that a ceasefire must lead to a permanent end to hostilities in Gaza, withdrawal of Israeli forces, reconstruction of the Palestinian enclave and release of Palestinian prisoners in Israel. Negotiators from the U.S., Egypt and Qatar have been trying for months to mediate a ceasefire and free the hostages, more than 100 of whom are believed to remain captive in Gaza.

     Hamas signals 'readiness' to negotiate Gaza truce

     Reuters Videos

     STORY: EDITORS PLEASE NOTE: THIS SCRIPT UPDATES AN EARLIER STORY WITH HAMAS'S STATEMENT ON NEGOTIATIONS. A senior Hamas official said on Tuesday the Palestinian militant group had accepted a United Nations-backed ceasefire resolution and is ready to negotiate details, a move the U.S. called a 'hopeful sign.' Qatari and Egyptian mediators said they had received a formal reply from Hamas to the truce proposal. And Hamas and its ally Palestinian Islamic Jihad issued a joint statement on Tuesday expressing "readiness to positively" reach a deal to end the war in Gaza. :: June 10, 2024 The U.N. Security Council approved U.S. President Joe Biden's proposal for a truce on Monday. Biden's proposal would pause fighting in the Gaza Strip and facilitate the return of Israelis held hostage by Hamas... ultimately leading to an end to the war. “We have the prospect of an immediate ceasefire, building toward an enduring one and tremendous relief for people in Gaza..." In a visit to Tel Aviv on Tuesday, U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken responded to Hamas's statement with measured optimism. “Well, I say it is a hopeful sign just as the statement they issued after the President made his proposal 10 days ago, was hopeful. but it’s not dis-positive." Both Israel and Hamas suggested on Tuesday the plan fit their clashing goals, raising doubt whether any genuine headway towards a deal had been made. :: Released October 7, 2023 The war began when Hamas-led Palestinian militants stormed into southern Israel from Gaza on Oct. 7, killing more than 1,200 people and seizing more than 250 as hostages, according to Israeli tallies. Israel's retaliatory air and ground onslaught in Gaza has killed more than 37,000 Palestinians, the Gaza health ministry said on Tuesday. Israeli strikes have reduced most of the densely-populated coastal enclave to wasteland. Blinken traveled from Israel to neighboring Jordan for a summit on the humanitarian response for Gaza's 2.3 million residents, most of whom are now homeless. The American diplomat announced more than $400 million in assistance for Palestinians.

So, I came here without anything, we couldn't bring anything with us. I left all my music instruments there. So, I borrowed my father’s friend’s guitar..." :: "I use music to deliver my message and my voice to the whole world, that we love life, we love to live. Our children love to play. The children out there. Everyone thinks that we love to die, that we love the situation that we are in. But that is wrong. Our children love to live, love to be alive, to play with each other. Here we cannot do anything of that, they cannot do anything of that, they just want peace, they just want peace to be around there.” The young student fled her home during Israel’s military offensive in the area and moved to Deir al-Balah further south with her family. Unable to continue with her medical studies, Nasser spends her days playing songs on the rubble of buildings or on rooftops overlooking her new neighbourhood. Despite her passion in music, Nasser hopes to be able to continue her medical degree and, she says, "help my people" in Gaza. Israel has besieged and laid waste to much of the Gaza Strip since launching an offensive in retaliation for the Oct. 7 Hamas-led attack that killed some 1,200 people in Israel, according to Israeli tallies. Israel's offensive has killed more than 37,000 people in Gaza, according to the Palestinian enclave's health ministry.

     Blinken: Hamas support for Gaza truce deal 'hopeful sign'

     Reuters Videos

     STORY: :: Blinken says Hamas' signal of support for a UN-backed Gaza truce deal is a 'hopeful sign' ::Tel Aviv, Israel ::June 11, 2024 Antony Blinken, U.S. Secretary of State “We have the prospect of an immediate ceasefire, building toward an enduring one and tremendous relief for people in Gaza. But also opening prospects for Israel to build enduring security which is what this country needs and has wanted since the first day of its existence." “REPORTER OFF CAMREA ASKING IN ENGLISH “Hamas issued a statement in support of it essentially do you see this as a hopeful sign that they might be leaning toward accepting, what more needs to be done to pursued Hamas to accept the ceasefire deal? “Well, I say it is a hopeful sign just as the statement they issued after the President made his proposal 10 days ago, was hopeful, but it’s not dis-positive. What is dis-positive, at least what so far has been dis-positive, is one way or another is the word coming from Gaza and from the Hamas leadership in Gaza, that’s what counts. And that’s what we don’t have yet and that’s why I say we are waiting to see. Everyone has said yes, except for Hamas and if Hamas doesn’t say yes, then this is clearly on them.” Conversations on plans for Gaza after the Israel-Hamas war ends will continue on Tuesday afternoon and in the next couple of days, Secretary of State Antony Blinken said after talks with Israeli leaders. "It's imperative that we have these plans." Blinken met Israeli officials on Tuesday in a push to end the eight-month-old Israeli air and ground war against Hamas that has devastated Gaza, a day after President Joe Biden's proposal for a truce was approved by the U.N. Security Council. He also met with the families of American hostages held by Hamas.

     Angry scenes as Israel votes on conscription law

     Reuters Videos

     STORY: ::Angry scenes erupt as Israel's parliament votes on a law to conscript ultra-Orthodox Jews into the military ::The families of Gaza hostages demand more action to get their loved ones home ::June 10, 2024 ::Jerusalem The move comes a day after centrist former general Benny Gantz quit the government in a dispute over the strategic aims of the Gaza war. The vote and confrontations underscored the volatile mix of forces buffeting Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, now increasingly dependent on his allies from the hard right. The conscription bill, which must still pass further readings and committee hearings after the late night vote, would see a gradual entry into the military of some ultra-Orthodox Jews, who have traditionally resisted serving in the armed forces. As parliament prepared to vote on the bill, there were angry exchanges at a meeting of the finance committee, where members of some of the hostage families waylaid Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich and demanded the government do more to bring the captives home. Smotrich, who has ruled out any deal with Hamas and has opposed proposals for a ceasefire deal which would bring the hostages back in an exchange for Palestinian prisoners, dismissed the families' campaign as cynical.

     Parents hope for US deal to release son from Hamas

     Reuters Videos

     STORY: Parents of Israeli-American hostage Hersh Goldberg-Polin - kidnapped by Hamas during the October 7th attack - told Reuters on Monday that they support any measures necessary for his release. They spoke as NBC News reported that U.S. officials are considering negotiating a unilateral deal with Hamas militants to secure the release of five American hostages held in Gaza. "We hear rumors today that the United States is negotiating something or might. I would not be surprised if either at the same time or soon thereafter we hear about Germany and Argentina and so many of the other countries whose citizens are also being held. Whatever it takes to get everybody home we support." Rachel Goldberg-Polin and Jon Polin, have been campaigning for their son's release, along with the release of 120 others still held in Gaza, after over 100 hostages were released in a deal in November last year and 7 more were rescued in Israeli army operations. In the latest such operation on Saturday (June 8), Israeli forces were able to rescue four hostages from a densely populated area in Gaza. Hamas says over 200 Palestinians were killed during the operation. The Polins spoke to Reuters in Jersualem about the moment that news broke about that rescue. "It was just so miraculous and we were so excited. You know, we know two of those families fairly well through the last eight months. And every hostage is a win. It's a celebration of life. And we were relieved for them to be reunited, especially we knew Noa Argamini's mom was in such dire condition and we've been praying for her to be able to see her daughter. So we were elated." She added more needed to be done: "120 people to still be in captivity is absolutely unacceptable. And I think that the leaders have to put politics aside and egos aside and do the right thing by these people and by all the people who are suffering in the region. The United States says Hamas is holding five Americans who were taken hostage in the group's deadly Oct. 7 incursion inside Israel. Officials are hoping to recover the bodies of three other Americans who were killed that day, NBC reported. Israel's war against Hamas in Gaza, a response to the incursion, has killed 37,000 people, according to the health ministry in the Hamas-run territory. When asked about the NBC report while he was leaving Cairo, U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken said that the latest U.S. proposal for a ceasefire deal was quote, "the most effective way to get everyone home."

     Blinken presses Hamas to say 'yes' to ceasefire

     Reuters Videos

     STORY: BLINKEN: "If you want a ceasefire, press Hamas to say yes. ." U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken on Monday shuttled between Cairo and Jerusalem pushing a proposed truce in Gaza. Blinken met first with Egypt's President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi. Afterward, he told reporters that the greatest obstacle in reaching a ceasefire was that Hamas had yet to accept the terms of a deal outlined by U.S. President Joe Biden last month. "So, the only party that has not accepted, the only party that has not said yes, is Hamas. That’s who everyone is waiting on. That’s who the Palestinians in Gaza are waiting on. It’s who the Israelis are waiting on. It’s who the hostage and the hostages' families are waiting on." Blinken then flew to Israel, where he met with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. In a statement, Netanyahu said his country remained "committed to total victory." A Hamas official told Reuters on Monday that Blinken's comments were biased toward Israel. :: Released October 7, 2023 The war has now entered its ninth month, since Hamas-led fighters killed 1,200 people and took some 250 others hostage in a rampage through southern Israel. In response, Israel launched an assault on the Gaza Strip that has killed more than 37,000 Palestinians and reduced most of the enclave to wasteland. :: Source: Israeli Military Israel's military on Monday released video it said showed scenes from a weekend operation that resulted in the rescue of four hostages kidnapped on Oct. 7 and recovered from the Nuseirat refugee camp in the center of the Gaza Strip. :: June 9, 2024 Palestinian officials said the operation, which involved airstrikes and ground troops, killed 274 people, making it one of the deadliest assaults of the war. Anas Alyan picked through the ruins of his home. "This is our house. We were safely sitting in it and suddenly, several consecutive explosions happened. We did not know what was happening. I was sitting upstairs in my apartment, I went down to my parents' floor and found all my relatives thrown because of the Jewish (Israeli) soldiers. They were firing at us with mortar rockets, at the living room. All my relatives were wounded. There was also a lot of gunfire - F16, quadcopters, drones. It was horrible. Soldiers in this area were all firing." Israeli forces said they were aware of under 100 Palestinians killed and did not know how many were combatants. :: Source: Hamas Armed Wing Hamas's military wing released this video on Sunday purporting to show its fighters battling Israeli tanks in the streets of Rafah, in southern Gaza. Israeli forces began an operation in the city last month despite White House pressure to hold off. :: June 7, 2024 Around half of the Gaza Strip's 2.3 million people had been sheltering in Rafah before last month's assault, and a million have had to flee again.
