Israel warns Egypt: "Last chance" for hostage deal before Rafah invasion

Israeli officials told their Egyptian counterparts on Friday that Israel is ready to give hostage negotiations "one last chance" to reach a deal with Hamas, but if there isn't progress soon it will move forward with a ground invasion of Rafah, two senior Israeli officials said.The Egyptians are increasingly concerned about a possible Israeli military operation in the southern Gaza city of Rafah and are making a last minute push for a hostage deal that would lead to a ceasefire in Gaza and stop an invasion of Rafah. Egyptian officials have raised concerns that an Israeli operation in the city would lead to tens of thousands of Palestinians entering their territory, potentially involving a breach of the border that would endanger Egypt's security.Israel has for weeks said it would invade Rafah, where more than one million displaced Palestinian are estimated to be sheltering amid an ongoing humanitarian crisis in Gaza.The Israeli officials said the talks with the Egyptians on Friday were constructive and that the Egyptians made it clear they intend to put pressure on Hamas to secure a deal for the release of hostages.

U.N. Will "Preserve Evidence" Of Gaza Mass Graves For War Crimes Investigation

The UN on Thursday emphasized the importance of preserving evidence on mass graves in the Gaza Strip, stating that it is unclear when the requested investigation will take place.Asked about evidence suggesting that some victims were buried alive in mass graves at Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis in southern Gaza and what should be done with such evidence, UN spokesperson Stephane Dujarric told at a news conference that "it's important that all forensic evidence be well preserved."Citing the UN's call for an international investigation on the mass graves, Dujarric said, "How that will take place, it's unclear at this time."He said some legal units of the UN have the authority to initiate investigations but that has not yet occurred.Regarding the question about if the UN could send a team to the field, Dujarric said, "It's not a matter of the Secretary-General (Antonio Guterres) be proactive because we do not have a mandate to participate in such investigation."The Palestinian Civil Defence says it will cooperate with an independent investigation into three separate mass graves found in Gaza containing 392 bodies.

Israel Leader Says Pro-Palestinian Protests Are Nazis

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel said on Wednesday that protests at U.S. universities against Israel’s war in Gaza were “horrific” and should be stopped, using his first public comments on the subject to castigate the student demonstrators and portray them as antisemitic.Mr. Netanyahu appeared to equate protests against his government’s prosecution of the war Gaza with hatred of Jews. He said the protests on American campuses were “reminiscent of what happened in German universities in the 1930s,” an apparent reference to ideologically militant pro-Nazi student groups that, according to the Holocaust Encyclopedia, worked with the security forces to carry through Hitler’s agenda.“It’s unconscionable,” he said. “It has to be stopped.”The demonstrations are becoming a political headache for President Biden, because the student protesters, and other left-leaning Democrats who sympathize with them, are important constituencies in his hopes for re-election in November.By portraying the protests in such stark moral terms, the Israeli leader could reinforce Mr. Biden’s political bind.
