Hamas ready to secure Gaza ceasefire 'immediately', official tells Sky News
Thursday, 14 November 2024 () Hamas says it is ready to secure a Gaza ceasefire deal "immediately" but claims it has not had any "serious proposals" from Israel in months, an official for the group has told Sky News.
In a chilling development, the Palestinian Islamic Jihad has released a third video of hostage Sasha Trufanov, showing him speaking about his age as 28—despite having turned 29 two days prior. This video, the latest in a series, raises new questions about the psychological warfare being waged by terror groups against hostages and their families. Trufanov, an engineer from Israel, was taken captive during the brutal October 7 Hamas massacre, along with three family members. While some hostages have been released, Sasha’s fate remains uncertain as Israel continues negotiations for his release. Watch the video to learn more about the ongoing crisis and its impact.

The situation in northern Gaza has been described as "apocalyptic" by acting UN aid chief Joyce Msuya, as Israel's military offensive against Hamas in the area.. Sky News
In a bold and devastating escalation, Hamas' al-Qassam Brigades have claimed responsibility for killing at least 20 Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) soldiers in just two days. The attacks, described as "multiple strikes" and "deadly ambushes," took place in the northern Gaza Strip and are being hailed as a significant counteroffensive against Israel's ongoing military aggression.
The Hamas statement emphasises the scale and precision of the operations, marking a major blow to Israeli forces who have been engaged in intensive airstrikes and ground operations in Gaza. According to Hamas, the resistance movement has successfully targeted Israeli soldiers, continuing their war of attrition against the occupying forces. The organisation vowed that these attacks are only the beginning, promising further strikes until the Israeli regime withdraws completely from the besieged Palestinian territory.

Putin and Saudi Crown Prince MBS held a phone discussion on the Palestinian-Israeli conflict and oil markets amid Trump's US election victory. The call, initiated by Saudi Arabia, covered OPEC Plus coordination and bilateral relations. With Trump's pro-Israel stance and history of facilitating Saudi-Israel normalization, this conversation gains strategic significance. As US-Saudi relations may improve under Trump, Putin's engagement suggests Russia's effort to maintain Middle East influence, while leveraging OPEC Plus partnerships.
