They took 251 people as a hostage. It is believed that he still has 22 alive hostages. With the overall blockade of the Gaza tape, Israel is trying to pressure Hamas to achieve its issuance.
Since the beginning of March, this siege led to the Gaza tape, and without a place to hide, it led to a desperate situation. Food is running out, people drink dirty water, there are no drugs or combustible medications, and the injured cannot leave and doctors cannot enter. It is an anti -survival profession.
The calls are hit so that Israel ends the total blockage and allows the entry of humanitarian aid. The World Food and UNICEF program is some of the organizations that urge immediate work.

These days, the II of the UE-UKRAINE Defense Industry Forum was held in Brussels, which talked about the integration of European and Ukrainian defense industries. France, the only nuclear power of the European Union (EU), says it is ready for “debate” On the possibility of sharing the nuclear umbrella of the deterrent with other European countries.

The first steps for the fourteentho
Succeed “pope”LEO XIV has monopolized many minutes on our screens and headlines. In recent days, we managed to meet the first American Pope in history a little more than that, see what their fears, priorities and desires are. In 69, Augustine became born in Chicago and a pastoral form in Peru, the successor of Francisco. It seems that the fourteenth Liu will continue the path of the reforms that his predecessor started, but it faces great challenges.
In his first speech on Sunday, in Plaza de San Pedro, after his predecessor, Liu fourteenth made a message for peace, believing both Ukrainians and Palestinians.
His first speech, after his choice as a new president of the Catholic Church, raised Bulvharida in the conservative media and circles in the United States, because he was not in English. It was in Italian and Spanish. He criticized him to ignore him “America first.”
