- 0:11Speaker 1: We begin today with significant diplomatic tensions surrounding Gaza. The
- 0:16Speaker 1: Prime Minister of Qatar, Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jasim
- 0:20Speaker 1: Al Thani, has made strong accusations regarding ongoing peace efforts.
- 0:24Speaker 1: In an interview with CNN, Al Thani stated that Israeli
- 0:28Speaker 1: Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is sabotaging efforts to reach a
- 0:32Speaker 1: peace agreement in the Gaza Strip, calling him the biggest
- 0:35Speaker 1: obstacle to progressing the plan. Al Thani claimed that Prime
- 0:39Speaker 1: Minister Netanyahu's government is the primary reason for the lack
- 0:42Speaker 1: of progress, alleging violations of a previous agreement, including continued
- 0:47Speaker 1: killing and expanding occupation. He also pushed back against Israeli
- 0:51Speaker 1: allegations of Qatar funnelling money to Hamas's military wing, stating
- 0:55Speaker 1: that no Qatari funds reached the group's military wing. and
- 0:59Speaker 1: that all funding to Gaza is done with the full
- 1:01Speaker 1: coordination and consent of the United Nations and the Israeli government,
- 1:05Speaker 1: for specific approved purposes like supplying gas and supporting civil employees.
- 1:10Speaker 1: He suggested Israel often cited election cycles as a reason
- 1:14Speaker 1: to delay long-term solutions. On the ground in Gaza, Israeli
- 1:18Speaker 1: forces continued operations against terrorists. Yesterday, an Israeli UAV strike
- 1:23Speaker 1: killed terrorist Ibrahim Mosin at the Al-Sawakra cemetery in central Gaza.
- 1:28Speaker 1: And today, the IDF eliminated Saha T. Zakar, identified as
- 1:33Speaker 1: a terrorist who infiltrated Israeli territory on October 7. This
- 1:37Speaker 1: strike occurred on Jules Street in the western part of
- 1:39Speaker 1: the Nusirat camp in central Gaza. According to reports from
- 1:43Speaker 1: Telegram channels Selina Updates and Abuel Express, turning to international actions,
- 1:48Speaker 1: the Netherlands has begun enforcing a ban on goods produced
- 1:51Speaker 1: in Israeli settlements. This ban applies to products originating from
- 1:55Speaker 1: Judea and Samaria, East Jerusalem and the Golan Heights. According
- 2:00Speaker 1: to reporting from telegram channel Naftali, this move is being
- 2:03Speaker 1: viewed by some as selective treatment of the Jewish state. Meanwhile,
- 2:07Speaker 1: in southern Lebanon, Israeli forces conducted strikes and controlled detonations
- 2:12Speaker 1: at multiple locations. The IDF reported striking a Hezbollah weapons
- 2:16Speaker 1: storage facility in the Sejad area, stating it contained weapons
- 2:20Speaker 1: used against Israeli troops. Explosions were also reported near Al-Tiri.
- 2:25Speaker 1: Marj Dalzoun and Maiz Al-Jabal. Reports from Telegram channels Selina
- 2:30Speaker 1: Updates and Abuel Express also mention IDF fighter jet attacks
- 2:34Speaker 1: in the Eskoud, Jabal al-Rafi area. Domestically, concerns remain about
- 2:39Speaker 1: the safety of children in northern Israel. As the school
- 2:42Speaker 1: year began, reports indicate that approximately 250 kindergartens located near
- 2:47Speaker 1: the Lebanese border are still operating without essential protected classrooms,
- 2:52Speaker 1: also known as safe rooms. Jpost.com reports that while the
- 2:56Speaker 1: need has been recognised, plans approved, and budgets promised, the
- 3:00Speaker 1: execution of constructing these safe spaces is significantly delayed, posing
- 3:05Speaker 1: a risk to the children's safety and the continuity of
- 3:08Speaker 1: their education. For continuing coverage of antisemitism around the world,
