Hamas said it’s ready to exchange its remaining Israeli hostages all at once with Palestinian prisoners during the Gaza truce’s second phase as a step leading to a “permanent ceasefire” and the full withdrawal of Israel’s forces from the enclave.
The militant group is attempting to hold onto its two longstanding demands as Israel’s security cabinet has a stated war goal of removing Hamas, designated a terrorist group by the US and many other countries, as a governing and military force in Gaza.
Hamas spokesperson Hazem Qasim said that any arrangements for the future of Gaza will be based on national consensus.

Israel’s objective to expel Hamas from Gaza is a “silly psychological warfare,” he said. On Monday, Qasim said the group is ready to cede power in the war-ravaged territory if the move serves the interests of Gazans.

Hamas said it would free six hostages on Saturday rather than over the coming two weeks, as planned. The decision was made in response to the mediators, Qasi

STOP THE DOUBLE STANDARD NOW- STOP CHINA FROM INTIMIDATING AND INSTIGATING COUNTRIES TAIWAN.
America, EU and the world needs to speak out about the true freedom and independent of Taiwan.
Taiwan expressed approval after the U.S. State Department removed a statement on its website that said it does not support the island’s independence.

The phrase “we do not support Taiwan independence” was removed from a department fact sheet last week. The document, which highlights U.S. relations with Taiwan, is posted on the State Department’s website.

“The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has noted that the U.S. State Department updated the ‘Current State of U.S.-Taiwan Relations’ page … with text that is positive and friendly toward us, reflecting the close and amicable partnership between Taiwan and the United States,” the statement said.

President Trump spoke with French President Emmanuel Macron ahead of a European leaders’ meeting about the war in Ukraine, as the Trump administration is pressing forward with plans to negotiate an end to the war.

A White House official said the call Monday was “friendly” and lasted about 30 minutes.

The two presidents talked about the Ukraine war, meetings among European leaders and the talks in Saudi Arabia between U.S. and Russian officials, according to the official.

Macron pulled together the Monday summit, which comes after Trump said he expects to meet face-to-face with Russian President Vladimir Putin, implying that they are probably going to meet first in Saudi Arabia.

Top US and Russian officials held talks in Saudi Arabia on Tuesday to discuss how to end the war in Ukraine, without anyone from Kyiv involved, fueling concerns about a rapid push for a deal by the two powers that may leave Europe on the sidelines.
A senior Russian official said after the meeting, which lasted roughly four hours, that no date had been set for President Vladimir Putin and US counterpart Donald Trump to meet. He added that such a summit was unlikely to be next week, which Bloomberg reported was a possibility.
“It’s hard to say yet that we’re getting closer, but there was a conversation,” Kremlin foreign-policy aide Yuri Ushakov said about the two sides’ positions, according to the state-run Tass news agency.

The talks in Riyadh followed Trump’s landmark phone call with Putin last week in which he reversed key US positions on the conflict. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy warned his country won’t recognize “any agreements about us without us.”

Donald Trump is demanding Volodymyr Zelensky hold elections that could oust him from office as the price of peace.
His comments came after Sergei Lavrov, the Russian foreign minister, and Marco Rubio, the US secretary of state, met in Saudi Arabia for the first time to discuss terms to bring an end to the war in Ukraine.
The proposal raises concerns that Russia will use the ballot to oust Ukraine’s wartime leader from office and install a pro-Putin candidate who would agree to peace terms favourable to Moscow.
Mr Trump said the demand for a Ukrainian presidential election “came from me”.
“We have a situation where we haven’t had elections in Ukraine, where we have martial law, essentially martial law in Ukraine, where the leader in Ukraine, I mean, I hate to say it, but he’s down at 4 per cent approval rating, and where a country has been blown to smithereens...

“If Ukraine wants a seat at the table, wouldn’t the people have to say it has been a long time since they had an elec

Trump is correct. NASA just another bogus name at work. Open your eyes and mind to see what China is doing. The clean up needs to continue without delay.
10% of NASA’s workforce has been laid off, sources say
As thousands of federal employees continue to be terminated, sources at NASA tell ABC News that 10% of its workforce has been laid off.

“NASA is complying with the guidance and direction provided by OPM. It’s premature to discuss the impact to our agency, at this time,” they said in a statement.

European leaders meeting in Paris for emergency talks on Monday called for higher spending to ramp up the continent's defence capabilities but remained split on the idea of deploying peacekeepers to Ukraine to back up any peace deal.

The leaders also agreed it would be dangerous to conclude a Ukraine ceasefire without a peace agreement at the same time, and that they were ready to provide security guarantees to Ukraine "depending on the level of American support," a European official said.

"We agree with President Trump on a "peace through strength" approach," the official said, speaking on condition of anonymity.
The Paris meeting was called by French President Emmanuel Macron after U.S. President Donald Trump arranged bilateral peace talks with Russia, excluding European allies and Ukraine from negotiations to end the war that are scheduled to begin in Saudi Arabia.

German Chancellor Olaf Scholz has outlined several points that, in his view, should not be up for debate in any potential negotiations for peace in Ukraine.

Following an emergency summit with some of his European colleagues in Paris, the Social Democrat politician said, "For us, it is clear: The country must be able to continue its path into the European Union, defend its democracy and sovereignty, and be capable of maintaining its own strong army.

"For that, we will also be needed, along with our US and international friends and partners, to ensure that this can indeed be successful in peaceful times."

Scholz added, "These things are not up for negotiation."
The informal discussions in Paris took place against the backdrop of the dramatic shift in Ukraine policy by the new US administration under Donald Trump, focusing on supporting Ukraine and how Europe can strengthen its own security in the long term.

Ukraine will not recognise a peace deal negotiated by the US and Russia if it is not involved in the talks, Volodymyr Zelensky has said.
The Ukrainian president insisted he would rebut any deal struck in Saudi Arabia to end the long-running conflict after he was excluded from the negotiating table.

Senior American and Russian officials, including the countries’ top diplomats, will begin negotiating an end to the war.
Before negotiations had even begun, Sergei Lavrov, Russia’s foreign minister, ruled out any territorial concessions to Ukraine.
“We cannot recognise any things or agreements about us without us. And we will not recognise such agreements,” Mr Zelensky said.

“Surely, there is a bilateral track there. And the US has the right to do so if they have bilateral issues. To be honest, they talked about it before. Only now have they started talking publicly. Back then, it was like bad manners — to talk to an aggressor during wartime.”

A Ukrainian brigade says it hasn't seen North Koreans for a while in its part of the front in Kursk.

North Korea has abruptly reduced its presence in the war after weeks of intense fighting.

But it's unclear what Pyongyang is planning after conflicting reports of withdrawal emerged.

A Ukrainian brigade in the Kursk region has said it's no longer been encountering North Korean troops, as questions remain over Pyongyang's plans for the war front.

Petro Gaidashchuk, a senior communications officer for the 80th Air Assault Brigade, told Radio NV that while North Korean troops were still reported elsewhere on the battlefield, they'd "disappeared" from his brigade's part of the front.

"If we look at January, the front was saturated with North Koreans, in particular in the area of responsibility of the Galician Brigade," Gaidashchuk said in Ukrainian during the interview published on Monday. The 80th is sometimes referred to as a Galician Brigade.

Israelis have marked 500 days of war in Gaza with protests demanding further progress on a ceasefire so all remaining hostages can be returned.

People demonstrated in Tel Aviv and Jerusalem on Monday as less than two weeks remain in the ceasefire's current phase. Talks on the more difficult second phase are yet to start. Over 70 hostages remain in Gaza, around half thought to be dead.

“I want my son. My son is not part of politics,” said Ayelet Samerano, mother of Yonatan Samerano, whose body is in Gaza after he was killed in the Hamas-led attack that sparked the war.

Over 2 million Palestinians in Gaza face their own uncertainty as Israel's government appears to embrace U.S. President Donald Trump's proposal to relocate them from the war-ravaged territory. Trump has said they would not return.

President Donald Trump said Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy will be involved in peace talks with Russia, a day after top US advisers suggested the negotiations might go on without him.
“He will be involved, yes,” Trump said after attending the Daytona 500 car race in Florida. He didn’t specify whether Zelenskiy or his aides would attend preliminary talks this week in Saudi Arabia or later summit among the country’s leaders.
It was the first definitive statement from the White House that Ukraine would be permitted a seat at the table when the US and Russia discuss ending the war, which started with Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022.

Trump, who had a “lengthy and highly productive” phone call with Vladimir Putin on Wednesday, said he doesn’t believe the Russian president has further territorial ambitions in Ukraine.

“No, I think he wants to stop,” Trump said. “That was my question to him, because if he was going to go on that would have been a big problem fo

President Trump said Russian President Vladimir Putin “wants to stop fighting” and shot down a suggestion that Putin’s ambitions could extend beyond Ukraine’s borders.
“I think he wants to stop fighting. I see that. We spoke long and hard. [Middle East envoy] Steve Witkoff was with him for a very extended period, like about three hours. I think he wants to stop fighting,” Trump told reporters on Sunday when asked what he thinks Putin wants.

“They have a big, powerful machine. You understand that,” Trump continued. “And they defeated Hitler and they defeated Napoleon. You know, they’ve been fighting a long time. They’ve done it before … but I think he would like to stop fighting.”

The remarks come as the Trump administration seeks to negotiate an end to the Russia-Ukraine war, which began nearly three years ago when Putin led an unprovoked invasion into its neighbor, Ukraine.
