Palestinians in Gaza are watching the skies as missiles fall on Tel Aviv instead of them. While many think Israel can be defeated, others are left frustrated that Iran did not intervene and come to Gaza’s aid sooner.
Amid Israel’s continued attacks on Iran, U.S. lawmakers from across the political spectrum are pushing efforts to curb Donald Trump’s war powers as U.S. involvement in the war threatens to fracture Trump’s political coalition.
Four days after Israel attacked Iran, both countries are widening their attacks. Meanwhile, Palestinians seeking aid in Gaza continue to be gunned down, while Israel shuts down the West Bank.
After Iran launched hundreds of ballistic missiles into Israel in retaliation for Israel’s unprecedented attack, Israel said it would “burn Tehran” if Iran continued to retaliate.
Donald Trump called Israel’s attack on Iran “excellent” and warned there is “more to come” as Israel lobby groups and U.S. lawmakers threatened further bombings and escalation in the region.
The Israeli army launched a series of wide-ranging overnight strikes on Iran, targeting nuclear facilities, top military leaders, and nuclear scientists. Israel says these attacks are just the beginning.
Palestinians refer to the locations where the U.S.-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation is distributing aid as “massacre sites” and “death traps” due to near-daily killings. But they are forced to visit because there is no other way to get food.
The Israeli government has effectively legalized the annexation of over 60% of the West Bank, but no one’s talking about it. Here’s what this means for Palestinians.
A federal judge has ruled that the Trump administration cannot detain or deport Mahmoud Khalil based on Secretary of State Marco Rubio’s determination, in a decision hailed by his legal team as “a huge win.”
The Trump administration has imposed sanctions on Addameer, a leading Palestinian prisoner rights group, and five other charities for alleged links to Palestinian political factions deemed by the U.S. and Israel as “terrorist organizations.”
