Top UN court to rule on Israel's blockade of aid to Gaza
The International Court of Justice (ICJ) is to rule on Wednesday whether Israel violated international law with a months-long blockade of humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip. The judges at the top UN court will also offer an assessment of Israeli attacks on United Nations staff and facilities in the Gaza Strip.
Footage shared by the Israeli Foreign Ministry from inside the Strip shows suspected Hamas gunmen drag a man across the street as he yells before they start savagely kicking him.
An Israeli security official said the transfer of aid into the territory is halted "until further notice," the first major test of the ceasefire.
The Israeli military says it has "begun renewed enforcement" of the ceasefire deal, after Israel and Hamas accused each other of breaches.
Israel’s military says Palestinian militants in Gaza have handed over another body of a hostage. The remains of 13 hostages have been handed over since the ceasefire began.
Mideast experts urge excluding UNRWA from Gaza reconstruction under President Trump's peace plan, citing the agency's alleged Hamas connections and incompetence.
President Trump threatened to "eradicate" Hamas if it continues to violate a ceasefire the US helped broker between the militant group and Israel.
