Israeli forces fired bullets and tear gas at Palestinian families gathered near Ofer Prison, awaiting the release of prisoners under a ceasefire deal with Hamas. The attack injured seven people and came amid heightened security measures to suppress public gatherings. Families were warned against celebrating or displaying Palestinian flags, with threats of canceling releases. This incident follows Israeli PM Netanyahu's statement reserving the "right" to resume the war on Gaza, which has claimed nearly 47,000 Palestinian lives.

The Gaza ceasefire agreement has ignited a political crisis within Israel, as far-right ministers, led by Bezalel Smotrich, threaten to overthrow Prime Minister Netanyahu's government. Smotrich criticized the ceasefire as a "surrender to Hamas" and demanded that Israel continue its military operations in Gaza to defeat Hamas. He warned of the government's collapse unless it resumes military actions and establishes control over Gaza. Smotrich's party, along with National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir's, has withdrawn from the coalition, heightening tensions. Despite the withdrawals, Netanyahu's government retains a narrow majority in the Knesset. The ongoing conflict has caused significant casualties, and international bodies have issued warrants and rulings against Israeli leaders over actions in Gaza.

Israelis express growing concerns that the ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas, mediated by the U.S., Egypt, and Qatar, may collapse soon. Despite reaching an agreement after 15 months of conflict, fears arise that Hamas could break the terms of the deal, particularly over prisoner releases. Israelis are deeply apprehensive about the future of the ceasefire, with some speculating that Hamas may resume attacks. These concerns persist despite optimism over the release of hostages and humanitarian aid provisions. Tensions remain high, and many Israelis are uncertain if the deal will hold or if further violence will erupt.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has raised concerns over the Israel-Hamas ceasefire agreement, claiming that Hamas has violated key terms of the deal. The agreement, brokered with mediation by the United States, Egypt, and Qatar, was intended to halt hostilities, facilitate prisoner exchanges, and allow humanitarian aid into Gaza. However, Netanyahu's office accused Hamas of creating a "last-minute crisis" by reneging on commitments, including vetoing the release of Palestinian prisoners convicted of murder.

Israeli airstrikes and relentless bombardment have devastated Gaza's Jabalia refugee camp, destroying 70% of its buildings and turning the once-thriving area into a ghost town. The attack has left thousands of Palestinians trapped under rubble, with entire neighborhoods reduced to ash. This destruction is part of Israel's ongoing offensive against northern Gaza, where towns like Jabalia, Beit Lahiya, and Beit Hanoun have been besieged for over 40 days, enduring constant shelling, drone strikes, and a complete blockade. Despite the dire humanitarian situation, Hamas's armed wing, the Ezzedine al-Qassam Brigades, has continued launching retaliatory strikes against Israeli forces, intensifying the ongoing violence.

Iran and Russia, strengthening their strategic partnership, conducted joint military exercises in the Strait of Hormuz, a critical global oil passage. This follows a recent cooperation pact signed by their presidents amid Western sanctions. Iran’s Revolutionary Guards led the naval drills as part of nationwide military exercises. The move signals Tehran and Moscow’s growing defense collaboration and defiance against Western pressure. These drills, occurring days after the agreement, highlight their shared military ambitions and strategic positioning in the region. The West is closely monitoring these developments.
