A new wave of Israeli airstrikes has left at least 77 Palestinians dead, making it the deadliest day since the ceasefire collapsed two weeks ago. Among the targets was a UN-run medical facility in the Jabalia refugee camp, where 22 people, including children and police officers, were killed. As the bombardment intensifies in Khan Yunis, Rafah, and Nuseirat, the world watches in horror. With mounting international condemnation and calls for a ceasefire, will Israel’s relentless assault on Gaza continue unchecked?

Hamas Releases Israeli Hostages. In a shocking display, Hamas paraded released Israeli hostages on stage in Gaza before handing them over to the Red Cross. The dramatic footage shows Hamas militants, armed with Israeli weapons, escorting captives in Rafah as part of the final phase of the first hostage exchange deal. Among those released are Avera Mengistu, held since 2014, and Tal Shoham, who was abducted with his family during the October 7 attack. Four more hostages—Omer Shem-Tov, Eliya Cohen, Omer Wenkert, and Hisham Al-Sayed—are expected to be freed later in Nuseirat. The exchange takes place amid heightened tensions, with Israel set to release 602 Palestinian security prisoners. However, uncertainty looms over the next phase of negotiations, as both sides trade accusations over ceasefire violations.

Israel’s Power Struggle: Israel is witnessing a major political storm after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu attempted to fire Shin Bet chief Ronen Bar-a move now blocked by the Supreme Court. The fallout has triggered legal challenges, mass protests in Tel Aviv and occupied al-Quds, and fresh scrutiny around the explosive “Qatargate” scandal.
Bar has accused Netanyahu of pressuring him to mislead the court, while two of the PM’s aides have been arrested over alleged secret payments. As tensions rise, the court is set to decide Bar's fate on April 8.

Israel’s cabinet has unanimously voted to dismiss Shin Bet chief Ronen Bar after Prime Minister Netanyahu claimed a loss of trust in him. Netanyahu criticized Bar’s security approach, while Bar accused Netanyahu of sabotaging peace talks and trying to undermine the ongoing "Qatargate" investigation. Thousands protested the dismissal, which the Attorney General condemned as illegal.

Tensions are soaring along the Lebanon-Israel border after two Lebanese civilians were killed in a fresh Israeli airstrike targeting a bulldozer in Zebqin, southern Lebanon. This follows a series of drone attacks and grenade drops in nearby towns, intensifying fears of a wider conflict. The strikes come just days after U.S. Deputy Envoy Morgan Ortagus visited Lebanon for high-level talks. Lebanese Prime Minister Nawaf Salam condemned the attacks, calling them a blatant violation of Lebanese sovereignty and UN Resolution 1701. With over 2,000 ceasefire violations since November 2024, is Israel pushing the region toward another devastating war?

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) have admitted to mistakenly targeting and killing 15 emergency rescue workers in Gaza last month, claiming they were misidentified as Hamas operatives. The incident occurred near Rafah when soldiers opened fire on a convoy that included ambulances, a UN vehicle, and a fire truck. A New York Times video later contradicted IDF claims, showing medics in reflective gear with headlights on. The IDF now acknowledges the mistake, citing miscommunication and drone surveillance error. The investigation is ongoing, with international scrutiny increasing over the tragic ambush.
