'I saw horrors': 'Israeli' soldier commits suicide after serving in Gaza, Lebanon
An 'Israeli' soldier committed suicide yesterday one month after celebrating his 24th birthday, with his family citing an unstable mental condition after being drafted in the Gaza and Lebanon wars. "He told me he saw horrors. He couldn't stand the pain anymore," the mother of soldier Daniel Edri told Walla News. Edri ended his life in Biriya Forest, in the northern 'Israeli' settlement of Safed, after setting himself on fire inside his car. He was reported to be in deep mental distress from the wars in Lebanon and the Gaza Strip. His mother asked for him to be buried in a military funeral, but as of now, her request has not been granted. "He told me that he saw horrors, and said to me: Mom, I smell the smell of the bodies and I see the bodies all the time,' his mother recalled. Edri enlisted for service in the 'Israeli' military, and was discharged five months ago. He served in a combat support role in Gaza and Lebanon, which involved transporting the bodies of 'Israeli' soldiers several times. One week ago, he asked to be hospitalized in a psychiatric ward after his mental health deteriorated, but was told to wait and that he would be soon admitted.

Israeli Officer: Hamas Monitors Us Around Clock
Gaza - (Saba): An Israeli reserve officer said that the Israeli army has a "prevailing assumption" that the Islamic Resistance Movement "Hamas" collects intelligence on army officers and soldiers and their movements around the clock. The Israeli Walla News website quoted a reserve officer as saying, "Hamas uses remote surveillance, binoculars, and drones to gather information." The reserve officer on the Gaza Front added, "Hamas' use of drones was present at the beginning of the war (of aggression), then disappeared and has recently returned." He confirmed, "Hamas has returned to using drones; this means it feels comfortable enough." This week, the Israeli army acknowledged the death of one soldier and the serious injury of another in battles in Shuja'iyya, north of the Gaza Strip, on June 4. Whatsapp Telegram Email Print

Israeli official says Hamas agreed to release five captives for 50-day truce
Hamas has accepted Egypt's proposal for a 50-day ceasefire to begin over Eid in exchange for the release of five living captives, an Israeli official told Walla News. The official said the bodies of deceased captives would also be returned during the truce but did not specify a number. Israel is expected to submit a counter-offer, making it unlikely that a deal will be finalised before Eid, which begins Sunday or Monday, the official added. The report follows earlier reports by Egyptian officials to a Qatari outlet that Hamas had agreed to the proposal.

'Israeli officials say the meeting is important and the two nations would attempt to agree on a number of burning issues including the threat from Iran,' it added. According to the news website, 'Trump does not want to see an Israeli military strike but is willing to impose sever sanctions on Tehran' However, Israeli officials said: 'The sanctions must come with a credible threat of military action.' Netanyahu's visit will coincide with the start of negotiations for the second phase of the Gaza ceasefire deal. Although Trump said he agrees that Hamas must not remain as the ruler in the strip, he expressed his desire to see the agreement fulfilled in full rather than a resumption of the war if the talks fail, Ynetnews stated.
