As nationalist youth chant anti-Arab songs at Damascus Gate on “Jerusalem Day”, their champion - #Israel’s far right Security Minister Itamar Ben G’vir - turns up as the crowd insists #Gaza will be ours!”

Last week the UK government suspended free trade negotiations with Israel in protest at the war in Gaza. This week the UK’s trade envoy is touring Israel. Slightly mixed messaging.

We have the supplies, plan, will, and networks to deliver massive amounts of lifesaving aid to civilians in Gaza, in line with humanitarian principles, as the world is demanding. Enough. Let us work. No more time to lose.

Trump, April 7: "shouldn't be that long" until a new Gaza deal Trump, April 25: "very close" to a trade deal with Japan Trump, April 26: Russia and Ukraine are "very close to a deal" All of those remarks made headlines—but more than a month later, none of those deals are done

Another nail in the coffin of a two-state solution? Even as the #IDF offensive in #Gaza continues, killing more than 60 people overnight, #Israel announces a huge expansion of (illegal) settlements in the occupied Palestinian West Bank. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

.#Gaza has become "worse" than hell on earth, says the President of the ICRC. What is happening there, says Mirjana Spoljarić, "surpasses any acceptable legal, moral and humane standard". bbc.co.uk/news/live/cvg5…

In the Oval Office, after the cameras left, Trump was already primed to tell Elon Musk he would pull Musk's NASA choice. People don't change, Trump said, as he looked at the nominee's donations to Democrats. Tyler Pager Jonathan Swan Teddy Schleifer me nytimes.com/2025/06/06/us/…

For years Benjamin Netanyahu - בנימין נתניהו has been urging others (i.e. the #US) to do #Israel's bidding against #Iran. A big question now is if Donald J. Trump - whose promise to end other conflicts has failed -will get sucked into a wider, messy war in the #MiddleEast

Meanwhile, in #Gaza the killing continues. 51 Palestinians "killed by Israeli forces" as they waited for food, say reports. An "almost daily" occurrence at so-called aid distribution sites. (#Israel says the "incident" is "under review") bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Netanyahu’s media mouthpieces have been working hard from the early hours of the morning to establish the narrative of a triumphant “12 Day War” against Iran. But will Israelis buy this? Will it be enough to make them forget October 7 and 623 days of war still ongoing in Gaza?

The site of today’s Iranian missile attack in Beer Sheva where four people were killed - reportedly inside their safe rooms/shelters. Dozens also killed in intense Israeli strikes on Iran amid questions over whether a ceasefire can hold.

Extraordinary spectacle here at NATO. Trump isn't being treated by Rutte and fellow leaders as a partner and fellow head of govt, but rather a sort of world king with themselves relegated as courtiers. Probably the only thing they can do in the circs, but deeply weird.

In the least surprising development of the day, Donald J. Trump is handed a nomination for the #NobelPeacePrize by Benjamin Netanyahu - בנימין נתניהו. (After Kier Starmer's letter from the King - some world leaders sure know how to massage the Presidential ego.)
