Mideast Tensions Escalate Amid Ongoing Gaza Conflict

A devastating wave of violence swept through Gaza on Sunday, claiming dozens of lives in the ongoing war between Israel and Hamas. The conflict has left widespread destruction and a humanitarian crisis in its wake.

Meanwhile, Israeli officials announced plans to nearly double the population of Israeli settlers in the Golan Heights, a strategic region bordering Syria. The move is part of a broader effort by Israel to assert control over the area.

In a separate development, former US Ambassador to Germany Rick Grenell has been named by President Trump as his next special envoy for foreign policy missions. This appointment marks a significant shift in the administration’s approach to international relations.
