Colombia to sever diplomatic ties with Israel over Gaza ‘genocide’

Colombia says it will break diplomatic relations with Israel on Thursday over its actions in Gaza. Colombian President Gustavo Petro made the announcement at a rally in Bogotá's Bolívar Square on Wednesday, describing the Israeli government's handling of the war in Gaza as "genocidal". Israel launched its assault in the Palestinian territory following terror group Hamas' attacks on October 7, which left more than 1,200 people dead and saw more than 250 taken hostage – many of whom remain in captivity today. Now nearing its eight month, Israel's war in the isolated enclave has killed more than 34,000 people, according to the Palestinian health ministry. Israel's foreign minister, Israel Katz, condemned Colombia's announcement and accused Petro of rewarding Hamas,...

Israeli ground troops have battled Palestinian militants inside Gaza for over a week, cutting the territory in half and encircling Gaza City. The army’s chief spokesman, Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari, said that Israeli ground forces “are lo...

Many Israelis are furious at their government’s chaotic recovery efforts after Hamas attack

JERUSALEM (AP) — More than two weeks after Hamas militants rampaged through a string of sleepy farming towns, many Israelis are furious at Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government, not just for failing to prevent the attack, but for failing to come to their aid afterward. While the military is launching unrelenting airstrikes in Gaza that have killed thousands of Palestinians, and hundreds of thousands of Israeli troops are massing for a possible ground offensive, government infighting and lack of help for those in need have left traumatized survivors to mourn on their own and volunteers — many of whom spent the past year protesting the government — to take on recovery efforts. “It has to be clear. The government is completely incompetent,” said Ruvi Dar, a clinical psychologis...
