Palestinian prisoners not being given adequate food, Israel top court says
JERUSALEM — Israel's Supreme Court has ruled that the state is failing to provide adequate food to Palestinian prisoners, and must take steps to improve their nutrition.The three-judge bench said on Sunday that the government was legally obliged to provide prisoners with enough nutrition to ensure "a basic level of existence".Thousands of Palestinians have been held in Israeli jails for years, including over terror charges — and thousands more have been detained since the war in Gaza began in October 2023.Talks for a ceasefire have stalled but on Sunday night US President Donald Trump issued a "last warning" to Hamas, urging them to accept a deal to release Israeli hostages from Gaza.On a post on Truth Social, he said that Israel had accepted his terms, and it...

TUNIS — Huge crowds gathered at Tunisia's port on Sunday to welcome Greta Thunberg as her aid flotilla, bound for Gaza, docked at the port.The Swedish climate activist is travelling with 350 pro-Palestinian activists on boats stocked with aid that they are hoping to deliver to Palestinians in Gaza.Pictures from the Sidi Bou Said port show hordes of people surrounding the 22-year-old as she addressed the crowd.

Hamas releases video of hostages in Gaza City as Israeli military advances
JERUSALEM — Hamas on Friday released a video of two hostages being driven around Gaza City, in a move apparently aimed at swaying Israeli public opinion as the military ramps up its assault on the city.The video shows captive Guy Gilboa-Dalal in a car in several locations in Gaza City, including outside the Red Crescent headquarters. Apparently filmed last week, it reveals damaged buildings through the car window as the unseen driver leads the car through parts of the city. CNN has geolocated the video to Gaza City.Toward the end of the video a second hostage, Alon Ohel, 22, appears alongside Gilboa-Dalal in the car. The two embrace and appear surprised to see each other. “I can’t believe I’m seeing you,” Gilboa-Dalal says several times in the video.It was a rare Hamas hostage...
