The US has been talking with Hamas through an American intermediary in Doha this week in hopes of brokering an Israel-Gaza ceasefire agreement, according to a source familiar with the matter, as US officials say President Donald Trump is growing increasingly frustrated with Israel’s handling of the conflict.

Pope Leo XIV says the Israel-Hamas war in Gaza, "the heartbreaking price of which is paid by children, the elderly, the sick," must end and food must be allowed in.

An attempt by President Donald Trump's administration to transfer migrants to South Sudan violated a judicial order not to send deportees to countries other than their own without opportunity to contest their removal, a U.S. judge said on Wednesday.

A fat cat senior Hamas official is facing backlash within Gaza after he claimed the growing Palestinian death toll is nothing more than “material calculations” for the terror group.

Israel says it has begun sending troops into Gaza as part of a larger ground operation aimed at pushing Hamas to demilitarize and release the remaining hostages it holds.

The Israeli military said the new offensive in Gaza will not stop until the hostages are returned and Hamas is dismantled.

Two days after aid began entering Gaza, the desperately needed new supplies have not yet reached people in Gaza, which has been under an Israeli blockade for nearly three months, according to the United Nations.

Pope Leo XIV on Wednesday appealed for Israel to allow humanitarian aid to enter Gaza, calling the situation "yet more worrying and saddening."

Israel has likely killed Hamas leader Mohammed Sinwar, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said during a press conference on.

Per Israeli officials, 93 aid trucks entered the Gaza Strip on Tuesday, but experts say that is not nearly enough.
