We’ll be selling F-35s,” Trump told reporters when asked if he is planning to sell the advanced fighter jets to Saudi Arabia. Trump said Friday that Riyadh has shown a strong interest in purchasing the advanced aircraft made by Lockheed Martin. “They wanna buy a lot of jets,” he said. “They’ve asked me to look at it. They want to buy a lot of ‘35,’ but they want to buy actually more -

At least 98 Palestinians died in Israeli prisons over 2 years, rights group says
At least 98 Palestinians have died in Israeli prisons since the start of Gaza war in October 2023, an Israeli human rights group said Monday, Anadolu reports. The findings were published in a report issued by Physicians for Human Rights–Israel, which said the report is based on official responses, medical documents, autopsy reports, testimonies from medical staff and released detainees, and other human rights sources. The organization said Israel has concealed the causes of death among Palestinian detainees in its prisons and continues to hide the true number of victims, warning that the real figure is likely much higher. It accused Israel of carrying out a policy of systematic killing, ill-treatment, and medical neglect against Palestinian prisoners. “The unprecedented toll, -

A court in Dhaka on Monday sentenced Bangladesh’s fugitive former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina to death, finding her guilty of crimes against humanity committed during last year’s mass demonstrations against her government, Anadolu reports. Amid tight security, the Dhaka-based International Crimes Tribunal delivered the verdict in absentia since Hasina remains in India. Hasina committed crimes against humanity, the court said in the verdict, adding that she was the “superior commander of all the atrocities.” “The crimes happened in her (Sheikh Hasina’s) cool knowledge,” the three-member tribunal, led by Justice Md Golam Mortuza Mozumder, read from the 453-page judgement. “All the conditions of being a case of crimes against humanity were proved” in Hasina’s case, it said.

Netanyahu faces backlash after US-backed statement on Palestinian statehood
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reiterated on Sunday that his government remains firmly opposed to the establishment of a Palestinian state, issuing the clarification amid intense criticism from far-right parties in his ruling coalition. The backlash followed a US-backed statement at the United Nations referencing a potential path towards Palestinian statehood. The dispute erupted after the United States and several Muslim-majority countries endorsed a UN resolution supporting former US President Donald Trump’s plan to end the genocide in Gaza. The resolution includes language implying the possibility of an independent Palestinian state, provided that the Palestinian Authority undergoes significant reforms. The clause triggered outrage among Israel’s far-right leadership, who had already voiced opposition to the Trump-brokered ceasefire in Gaza. The political -

Palestinian body rejects US plan for “international trusteeship” over Gaza
The Palestinian National Popular Action Authority — a coalition of conferences, organisations and independent national figures — announced on Sunday its complete rejection of what it described as an American plan to impose “international trusteeship” on the Gaza Strip through the establishment of a transitional administration operating outside the will of the Palestinian people. In a statement carried by Quds Press, the Authority warned that such a proposal represents “a blatant violation of the Palestinian people’s right to self-determination and an attempt to reproduce a new form of colonialism using modern tools”. The body stressed that any arrangements concerning Gaza must be determined solely by Palestinians, in a manner that preserves their historical rights, territorial unity and the legitimacy of -

Israeli court cancels Netanyahu’s Wednesday corruption hearing over ‘security reasons’
An Israeli court has cancelled Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s scheduled hearing session on Wednesday in his corruption trial due to “security reasons,” Anadolu reports. According to the Yedioth Ahronoth newspaper on Monday, judges approved Netanyahu’s request to cancel the session as the premier claimed that “there is a security issue on Wednesday.” The decision was taken after Netanyahu passed an envelope containing “confidential information” to the public prosecution, the daily added.

He also pointed to efforts toward a sustainable peace and increased humanitarian aid in Gaza.

Oxford Union votes that Israel poses ‘greater threat’ to regional stability than Iran
The Oxford Union, one of the world’s most renowned debating societies, has voted “overwhelmingly” in favor of a motion declaring Israel a greater threat to regional stability than Iran, following a heated debate featuring former Palestinian Prime Minister Mohammad Shtayyeh and Geneva-based NGO UN Watch’s director Hillel Neuer, Anadolu reports. The debate centered on the motion declaring that Israel is a greater threat to regional stability than Iran, as The Telegraph reported this weekend that the society members backed the proposition by a wide margin. Speaking for the motion, Shtayyeh argued that Israel’s actions constitute the primary source of instability in the Middle East, describing it as “an expansionist colonial state established by colonial powers.” He went on to call -

Why Qatar is more eligible and successful in global mediation than others
Under a mediatory role from Qatar, the government of the Democratic Republic of Congo and the rebel March 23 Movement (M23) signed a peace framework in the Qatari capital Doha on Saturday (15 November), marking the latest step in Qatar’s efforts to end the decades-long conflict in eastern Congo and commit the conflicting parties to a comprehensive peace agreement. This is was not Qatar’s first mediation role, but a coronation of a successful mediatory path and international reputation that places the small Gulf state as a top mediator state. Over the past two decades, Qatar has emerged as one of the most effective mediators in conflicts around the world, carving out a diplomatic profile that far exceeds its geographic size. -

Palestinian resistance leader warns US proposal carries major risks, ignores Palestinian rights
The deputy secretary-general of Islamic Jihad, Mohammed Hindy, has warned that the United States’ proposed resolution on Gaza carries serious risks and overlooks key issues for the Palestinian people. Speaking in remarks reported by Al Jazeera, he said the suggested Peace Council could become a form of legitimised occupation if its role and formation are not clearly defined. He stressed that it is unacceptable to impose the Israeli and US vision on the Palestinian people under a UN mandate. Hindy affirmed his movement’s definitive rejection of any international force in Gaza to replace the occupation, stressing that talk of a “Palestinian state” in the American project is ambiguous and does not guarantee the geographical connection between Gaza and the West -

State-sanctioned Jewish-mob terror in the West Bank
In the occupied West Bank, Palestinian villages have become open fields for illegal Jewish settlers operating under the protection of the Israeli army. In recent weeks, organized Jewish mobs, some armed with rifles and sticks, others carrying torches, have unleashed violence across occupied Palestinian towns and villages. It is not only that Israeli soldiers stand providing cover for the illegal Jewish mobs, the army blocks Palestinian farmers from accessing their farms for the annual olive harvest. The Jewish mob’s thuggery follows a clear pattern where settlers attack homes, burn olive groves, beat villagers and drive out farmers from their land. Multiple international eyewitness accounts and videos showed Jewish settlers descending from Jewish only colonies, escorted by soldiers firing tear-gas or -

Israeli- run group facilitates Gazan relocations via Ramon airport: Haaretz report
An organisation run by a man with dual Israeli–Estonian nationality is behind the recent charter flights taking Palestinians from Gaza through Ramon Airport, Haaretz reported. The investigation found that the body presenting itself as an association is in fact a front for a consultancy company registered in Estonia. South Africa’s border authorities said on Friday that dozens of Palestinians who arrived at Johannesburg’s OR Tambo International Airport on Wednesday, after travelling from Kenya, were eventually allowed to enter the country following an initial refusal over entry requirements. Despite the clearance, President Cyril Ramaphosa said, in remarks carried by the Associated Press, that “the country’s intelligence services are investigating the party behind a charter plane that landed in Johannesburg with more
