Trump Proposes Ceasefire

Donald Trump is poised to unveil a US-brokered ceasefire in Gaza, seeking to end the relentless violence. While the plan includes a 60-day pause and humanitarian aid, Israel remains steadfast in pursuing military goals. As the IDF aims to secure 75% of Gaza, the stakes rise for hostage negotiations and the pressure mounts on Hamas.

Trump Eases Sanctions

In a surprising turn during Trump's Middle East visit, he shifted focus from Israel, easing sanctions on Syria and engaging with rivals like Erdogan. As Israel escalates its military actions in Gaza, global outcry grows, demanding humanitarian relief. While Trump pushes for a ceasefire, Netanyahu's insistence on defeating Hamas complicates peace efforts and deepens the crisis.
