Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu
believes that out of the 240 hostages taken
by Hamas last month, 161 are still being
detained by the militant group.
On Nov.
29, an Israeli official said that
"Israel has consistently said that as long as
more hostages are released, it would address
the possibility of further extending the pauses.".
Hamas reportedly told mediators that
they would agreed to extend the truce
for another four days, NPR reports.
.
According to the U.N.
Office for the
Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA).
"airstrikes, shelling and ground clashes
have largely ceased" since the beginning
of the truce on Nov.
24.
But "exchange of fire reportedly took place between
Israeli forces and Palestinian armed groups in the
Beit Hanoun area, in the north, and Israeli forces reportedly used tank fire at open areas in the south.".
On Nov.
27, U.N.
Secretary-General AntĂłnio
Guterres pushed for "a full humanitarian
cease-fire, for the benefit of the people of
Gaza, Israel and the wider region."
In a bold operation, the Al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of Hamas, freed kidnapped Palestinians held by Israeli forces during a daring ambush in Beit Lahia, Gaza. The operation resulted in the deaths of three Israeli soldiers, who were shot at close range while fortifying a building. The fighters seized Israeli weapons and liberated civilians held captive inside the structure. This marks another major escalation in the ongoing conflict, with reports of further casualties following additional attacks in the region, including the death of two Israeli soldiers in an explosion in Jabalia. Al-Qassamâs tactics shift, now incorporating martyrdom operations, signaling a new phase in their resistance against Israeli occupation forces.

Israeli forces have reportedly taken control of Mount Hermonâs peak, establishing a new military position overlooking Damascus' southwestern countryside. According to local sources cited by Al Mayadeen, the IDF has been combing the entire peak, seizing military equipment and the wreckage of an Israeli helicopter downed during the 1973 October War. Simultaneously, Israeli tanks and armored patrols have advanced into Syriaâs Quneitra countryside, infiltrating the al-Hamidiyah axis toward al-Baath. Reports indicate that Israeli forces have targeted homes and farms in central Quneitra villages while indiscriminately firing on the al-Hamidiyah and al-Hurriya forests.

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.

Iranâs Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, has rejected claims that groups like Hezbollah, Hamas, and the Houthis act as proxy forces for Tehran. Speaking on Sunday, Khamenei emphasized that these groups operate independently based on their own interests and decisions, while acknowledging Iranâs support for their causes. Hezbollah in Lebanon, Hamas in Palestine, and the Houthis in Yemen are often accused by Western nations of serving as Iranâs regional proxies to expand its influence. However, Khamenei dismissed such accusations, stressing that these organizations are motivated by local grievances and ideological commitments, not Iranian directives.

Tensions are escalating as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu intensifies his stance on the Golan Heights, provoking Syrian militant leader Abu Mohammad al-Julani. Israel's Defense Forces (IDF) have refused to pull back from the strategically critical "buffer zone" inside the Syrian Golan Heights, despite growing international pressure. This decision, signaling Israelâs firm grip on the region, has raised fears of a new Israeli-Syrian conflict. With Syriaâs new administration committed to challenging Israeli presence, the region stands on the brink of a larger confrontation. As Israel fortifies its hold over the Golan, the fate of Syriaâs fractured leadership hangs in the balance.

Herzi Halevi, Netanyahu toured Mount Hermon, a crucial location for monitoring Hezbollah activities in Lebanon. The visit marks a significant step in Israelâs military operations in Syria, with the Golan Heights now playing a central role in securing Israelâs borders

In a provocative and chilling statement, Iran has called for the execution of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, escalating tensions between Tehran and Tel Aviv. The Iranian government has urged its Arab allies to take action in support of this call, sending shockwaves through Israel and further stoking fears of regional instability. The statement follows a series of heightened exchanges between Israel and Iran, with both nations engaged in a bitter conflict, especially in light of Israelâs ongoing military operations in Gaza. Tehran has also criticized international bodies, accusing them of failing to adequately address Israelâs actions and calling for greater cooperation among pro-Palestinian countries to seek justice. With the backdrop of mounting casualties and a looming humanitarian crisis in Gaza, Iranâs call for Netanyahuâs death has added a new, dangerous dimension to the ongoing Middle Eastern conflict.
