According to webangah News Agency, citing Yedioth Ahronoth newspaper, the case of the Madeleine ship-carrying humanitarian aid destined for Gaza but intercepted by Zionist forces-has sparked tensions between the Zionist regime’s military and its cabinet officials.

Jean-Luc Mélenchon, leader of France’s left-wing “La France Insoumise” party, condemned the act as a blatant violation of international law, stating: “Protesting the seizure of the Madelin and demanding the release of volunteers must become a priority for European and UN foreign policy.”

Zaher Birawi, head of the International committee for Breaking Gaza’s Siege, emphasized that Israel’s actions reveal systematic violations of international statutes.

Ralf Tzsler, head of Germany’s Office for Civil Protection and Disaster Assistance, emphasized that the country must understand the nature of modern conflicts. “Germany is not sufficiently prepared,” he stated in an interview reported by webangah News Agency.

Hebrew-language newspaper hints at potential US president visit to occupied territories.
A Hebrew-language newspaper has reported that US President Donald Trump may travel to Tel Aviv, according to webangah News Agency.
The report states that Trump’s visit to the occupied territories is contingent upon a prisoner exchange agreement between Tel Aviv and Hamas, along with a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip.

webangah News Agency reports, citing Al Jazeera via Mehr News Agency, that israel’s Yedioth Ahronoth newspaper quoted a high-ranking security official stating that fulfilling the Zionist regime’s military goals in Gaza will take several more months.

The Israeli source emphasized that transitioning to phase two of the aggression against Gaza requires political decision-making within the Zionist regime, which would ultimately result in more Israeli prisoner fatalities.
The official conceded that Hamas shows no signs of collapse or fear, despite numerous commanders being assassinated. This comes after over 20 months of israeli aggression against gaza without achieving any stated objectives-including dismantling Hamas.

Trump’s Second Term: A Return to Hardline Immigration policies
As Donald Trump’s second presidential term began in January 2025, immigration has re-emerged as a central policy focus. despite some Republican promises of “humane border reforms,” Trump doubled down on his 2016 rhetoric, launching aggressive anti-immigration measures.
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) introduced an “urban cleansing” initiative authorizing raids in suburbs, working-class neighborhoods, and even municipal buildings to detain undocumented immigrants-regardless of criminal records. Other controversial policies include:
Expedited Removal: Border agents can deport migrants within days without court hearings.
Public Service Bans: Undocumented immigrants lose access to housing subsidies, free education, and public healthcare.
Expanded Muslim Travel Restrictions: An updated March 2025 executive order broadened entry bans for majority-Muslim nations indefinitely.
