Palestinian Authority Pressures Hamas Amid Hostage Crisis and Calls for Gaza Truce

Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas has publicly condemned Hamas, demanding the release of Israeli hostages and the group's disarmament. Abbas's remarks come as international mediators push for a long-term ceasefire in Gaza, aiming to end the ongoing conflict. Hamas has rejected partial deals, insisting on terms that would ensure its survival and influence in Gaza. The situation remains tense, with continued Israeli strikes and mounting pressure for a comprehensive resolution. The fate of the hostages and the future governance of Gaza are central to ongoing negotiations.

Hamas’s ‘all-or-nothing’ strategy: Why it rejected a partial deal

Hamas’s refusal to accept a recent Israeli partial deal offer for a ceasefire and the release of some 10 Israeli hostages is a calculated attempt to ensure its long-term survival by forcing Israel to end the war on the terror group’s terms,

Trump hits ‘nasty’ Michelle Obama at Atlanta rally

Former President Trump attacked former first lady Michelle Obama during his rally in Atlanta on Monday, calling her “nasty” after Obama lobbed attacks at the former president while stumping for Vice President Harris.“You know who’s nasty to me? Michelle Obama,” Trump told supporters in Atlanta.“I always tried to be so nice and respectful. Oh, she opened up a little bit of — a little bit of a box. She opened up a little bit of something. Oh, she was nasty. Shouldn’t be that way. That was a big mistake that she made,” he added.His remarks come after Obama criticized Trump during a Michigan rally on Saturday, at one point mentioning “Donald Trump’s gross incompetence.”“I hope that you’ll forgive me if I’m a little angry that we are indifferent to his erratic behavior, his obvious mental decline, his history as a convicted felon, a known slum lord, a predator found liable for sexual abuse, all of this while we pick apart Kamala’s answers from interviews that he doesn’t even have the courage to do, y’all,” she said in Kalamazoo, Mich.The heated rhetoric underscores the increasingly personal tone the presidential election has taken between the two campaigns roughly one week out from the election.An aggregate of national surveys compiled by The Hill/Decision Desk HQ shows Harris slightly ahead at close to 49 percent support while Trump is at 48 percent.
