Egypt & Qatar Intensify Efforts to Broker Gaza Ceasefire
Egypt and Qatar are continuing their mediation efforts to reach a ceasefire agreement in Gaza, amid an escalating humanitarian catastrophe, sources told AlQahera News Channel on Saturday.
The situation in Gaza remains dire as Israeli forces intensify their military operations, launching widespread airstrikes and artillery attacks across the enclave. Entire residential blocks have been destroyed, with reports of devastating massacres against civilians, particularly in areas under ground incursions.
Thousands of victims remain trapped under the rubble due to the relentless bombing, with rescue operations severely hampered by the dangerous conditions on the ground. The ongoing blockade has tightened further, cutting off essential fuel supplies and urgently needed humanitarian aid.

Iran president says Israel attempted to assassinate him - Region
Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian said in an interview released on Monday that Israel, which last month fought a 12-day war with Iran, had attempted to assassinate him. "They did try, yes. They acted accordingly, but they failed," Pezeshkian told US media figure Tucker Carlson in response to a question on whether he believed Israel had tried to kill him. "It was not the United States that was behind the attempt on my life. It was Israel. I was in a meeting... they tried to bombard the area in which we were holding that meeting," he said according to a translation of his remarks from Persian, in apparent reference to an alleged assassination attempt during the recent war. On June 13, Israel launched an unprecedented bombing campaign against Iran, killing top military commanders and nuclear scientists. The Israeli attacks took place days before Tehran and Washington were set to meet for a new round of nuclear talks which began on April 12. More than 900 people were killed in Iran during the conflict, according to the judiciary. The Israeli attacks drew waves of retaliatory drone and missile fire, killing 28 people in Israel, according to authorities. The 12-day war between Iran and Israel saw it, along with the United States, launching strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities at Fordo, Isfahan and Natanz. During the interview with Carlson, Pezeshkian said his country has "no problem" restarting nuclear talks, provided that trust can be reestablished between the two countries. "We see no problem in re-entering the negotiations," the Iranian president said. "There is a condition ... for restarting the talks. How are we going to trust the United States again? We re-entered the negotiations, then how can we know for sure that in the middle of the talks the Israeli regime will not be given the permission again to attack us."

UN seeks breakthrough in Cyprus peace talks - International
The United Nations is pushing for a breakthrough when Cyprus's rival leaders meet in New York next week for a renewed attempt to revive stalled peace talks, an UN envoy said Monday. Maria Angela Holguin held separate meetings with Cypriot President Nikos Christodoulides and Turkish Cypriot leader Ersin Tatar, crossing the island's UN-patrolled ceasefire line in a day of shuttle diplomacy. "All this effort the UN is doing is for the prosperity of the island, so that the people have a better life," Holguin, who was appointed the UN envoy to Cyprus earlier this year, told reporters after meeting Tatar. "And we continue to work, the commitment of the UN is totally for that, so we hope the leaders can think about that, and we have results next week." The meetings are part of preparations for talks in New York on July 16-17, where UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres is due to meet both leaders. They followed a meeting in Geneva in March, which marked the first meaningful progress in years. At that gathering, both sides agreed on a set of confidence-building measures, including opening more crossing points across the divide, cooperating on solar energy, and removing landmines -- steps Guterres described as reflecting a "new atmosphere" and renewed urgency. "I hope we are going to have many advances on the measures they decided in March," said Holguin. Cyprus has been divided since 1974, when a Turkish invasion followed a coup in Nicosia backed by Greece's then-military junta. The Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus, declared in 1983, is recognised only by Ankara. The internationally recognised Republic of Cyprus, a member of the European Union, controls the island's majority Greek Cypriot south. The last major round of peace talks collapsed in Crans-Montana, Switzerland, in July 2017. Follow us on: Facebook Instagram Whatsapp Short link:
