Later on Friday, Palestinians gathered to perform funeral prayers before burying those killed overnight. "The ceasefire will come, and I have lost my brother? There should have been a ceasefire long ago before I lost my brother," said 13-year-old Mayar Al Farr as she wept. Her brother, Mahmoud, was among those killed.
Adlar Mouamar said her nephew, Ashraf, was also killed. "Our hearts are broken. We ask the world, we don't want food...We want them to end the bloodshed. We want them to stop this war."

Trump earlier said it would probably be known in 24 hours whether Hamas has accepted a ceasefire between the Palestinian militant group and Israel.
On Tuesday, the president announced that Israel had accepted the conditions needed to finalise a 60-day ceasefire with Hamas, during which the parties would work towards ending the war.
Hamas, which has previously declared it would only agree to a deal for a permanent end to the war, has said it was studying the proposal, but given no public indication whether it would accept or reject it.
Israeli Prime Minister
Benjamin Netanyahu
is yet to comment on Trump's ceasefire announcement. While some members of his right-wing coalition oppose a deal, others have indicated their support.

Australia synagogue fire: Suspect arrested, charged with arson
Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese on Saturday condemned the synagogue attack as a 'cowardly' act of violence. read more A man walks past the burnt front entrance of the East Melbourne Synagogue in Melbourne on July 6, 2025. Source: AFP A man suspected of setting fire to an Australian synagogue as worshippers ate dinner inside has been arrested and charged, police said Sunday. The 34-year-old allegedly set the front door of a busy Melbourne synagogue ablaze on Friday night as around 20 people ate dinner in observation of Shabbat, the Jewish day of rest. The attack has drawn strong condemnation from the prime ministers of both Australia and Israel. Victoria state police charged the man with a string of offences, including reckless conduct endangering life. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD 'Detectives will continue to examine the intent and ideology of the person charged to determine if the incident is in fact terrorism,' police said in a statement. The worshippers escaped unscathed through the back of the synagogue before firefighters doused the blaze. Police said they were yet to find a link between two other incidents targeting Jewish residents in Melbourne on Friday night. A group of about 20 protesters swarmed an Israeli-owned restaurant, interrupting the dinner service as they chanted at patrons. The protesters allegedly flipped over tables and smashed a window, according to local media. Cars were set on fire and daubed with antisemitic graffiti in a third incident in another part of the city. Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese on Saturday condemned the synagogue attack as a 'cowardly' act of violence. 'And the fact that people were having a peaceful dinner, and (were) disrupted by this act of violence could have had catastrophic consequences,' he said in a statement. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said it was 'reprehensible', while decrying the restaurant incident as a 'violent assault' by 'pro-Palestinian rioters'. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD 'We demand that the Australian government take all action to deal with the rioters to the fullest extent of the law and prevent similar attacks in the future,' he said. Jewish neighbourhoods in Melbourne and Sydney have in recent months been hit by a wave of antisemitic vandalism. Masked arsonists firebombed a different Melbourne synagogue in December, prompting the government to create a federal task force targeting antisemitism.

Israeli military says intercepted missile launched from Yemen
The Israeli military said on Sunday (July 6, 2025) that it has intercepted a missile launched from Yemen towards Israel. Sirens were activated across several areas in Israel in accordance with protocol, it said. Israel threatened Yemen's Houthi movement with a naval and air blockade if the Iran-aligned group persists with attacks on Israel, in what it says is solidarity with Gaza. Since the start of the war in Gaza in October 2023, the Houthis have been firing at Israel and at shipping in the Red Sea, disrupting global trade. Most of the dozens of missiles and drones they have launched have been intercepted or fallen short. Israel has carried out a series of retaliatory strikes.

'America Party formed to give you back freedom': Elon Musk officially launches new political party amid ongoing feud with Donald Trump
In a major development, tech billionaire and Tesla owner Elon Musk on Friday announced the formation of a new political party under the name 'America Party.' Interestingly, the announcement came just days after US President Donald Trump and Musk's public feud on social media platform X (formerly called Twitter). The 54-year-old Tesla CEO, some days ago, noticed an idea floating on the internet regarding a party formation, to which the billionaire reacted positively and said the decision was made in response to the overwhelming support from the users on the platform. The tech mogul took to his X and shared a post mentioning, "By a factor of 2 to 1, you want a new political party, and you shall have it!. Today, the America Party is formed to give you back your freedom." By a factor of 2 to 1, you want a new political party and you shall have it!When it comes to bankrupting our country with waste & graft, we live in a one-party system, not a the America Party is formed to give you back your freedom. Surprising announcements may stress the tensions between Elon Musk and Donald Trump The announcement comes suddenly amid the ongoing feud between Musk and Trump, who he once considered a key ally. On the other hand, Elon Musk had also invested about a million in Trump's re-election campaign and even became a major part of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) during Donald Trump's presidency. However, the relations between the duo soured last week after Donald Trump signed a sweeping tax cut and spending bill called 'The One Big Beautiful Bill.' According to reports, this was one of the moves that Musk strongly opposed. In response, the Tesla and SpaceX CEO suggested political payback, pledging to use his wealth to campaign against lawmakers who supported the legislation. Elon Musk and Donald Trump's feud Following this, the tensions between the duo intensified when Trump threatened to cut off federal subsidies to Elon Musk's companies, which is a significant financial pressure point. However, Musk had earlier said that he would start a new political party and spend money to unseat the lawmakers who supported the bill. Meanwhile, before launching his party, Musk shared a poll on the occasion of US Independence Day, when he asked whether respondents "want independence from the two-party (some would say uniparty) system" that dominated US politics for about two centuries. The SpaceX owner had a major rift with the president after spearheading the Republican push to reduce spending and eliminate federal jobs while leading the so-called Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). The feud flared up again in dramatic fashion late last Monday when Trump urged Republicans in Congress to force through his sweeping domestic agenda, packaged as the One Big Beautiful Bill.
