The House passed a stopgap funding bill to avert a government shutdown just hours before the midnight deadline. The bill extends funding through March 2025, providing disaster relief and farm aid, but excludes the debt limit suspension demanded by President-elect Trump. The bill now moves to the Senate for approval before being sent to President Biden. Speaker Mike Johnson and other Republicans worked to secure Democratic support, while Trump’s opposition led to changes in the bill's provisions.

The Israel-Hamas conflict has been marked by pivotal moments of violence and tension. The war escalated dramatically on October 7, 2023, when Hamas launched a surprise attack on Israel during the Shemini Atzeret holiday, including the massacre at the Nova Music Festival. The assault, which involved a barrage of rockets and the infiltration of militants into Israel, resulted in the deaths of over 1,200 people, with families targeted in their homes in kibbutzim.
The brutal nature of this attack prompted Israel to declare a state of war, followed by a complete siege of Gaza. The humanitarian toll was staggering, with over 1.4 million Palestinians displaced in the ensuing weeks. The war continued with significant losses on both sides, including the deaths of high-ranking individuals such as Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar. On October 17, 2024, Sinwar was killed in an Israeli operation, marking a key turning point in the conflict

Hamas has reportedly recruited 3,000 new fighters as part of its ongoing resistance strategy, according to sources familiar with the group's activities. These recruits are expected to bolster the group's capabilities in its guerilla warfare operations against Israeli forces. Reports also indicate that new tunnels are being constructed, potentially to enhance Hamas's strategic advantage and facilitate covert operations. This development comes amidst heightened tensions in Gaza, with the conflict showing no signs of de-escalation. The expansion of manpower and infrastructure signals Hamas's intent to sustain its operations despite military pressures from Israel.
