BBC’s Lyse Doucet visits Gaza where during the last conflict with Israel, more than 2,000 people were killed and 18,000 homes destroyed. 73 Israelis also died. It’s now 6 months since a ceasefire was declared and tens of thousands still have no shelter. International donors pledged more than $4bn for the reconstruction of Gaza, but little of the money has arrived. As our Chief International Correspondent Lyse Doucet has been finding out, most Gazans feel that a new war is inevitable.

    If I were a Palestinian I would fight for my homeland which was once vast and taken bit by bit by the colonialists, every Muslim fights for their rights, that's where the colonialists say Muslims are terrorists, and when non-Muslims seize their rights they are not called terrorists, May non-Muslims and Muslims live in peace without seeing the propaganda carried out by greedy people,

    Jews have no shame. Destroying every home and building without a care. Arabs should wake up and fight for Palestine. Failure of support for Palestinians

    Hamas spends millions of dollars on tunnels and missiles. They should be spending it on building. The Arabs know what kind of chaos they create and don't want to deal with them at all. Can't say I blame them. What about the Palestinians in Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, Turkey etc. They live in camps and those countries don't want them either

    The Koran is full of words to ill treat Christians, Jews, discriminate Women. Aggression to non-believers. Those Gazans have to rethink that Koran is not the whole truth and the only truth. It was composed of words of the Torah, the words of the traditions Arabs, rules made up by Muhammad himself, words menipulated and rewritten by the later followers. Not the words from Allah

US hits ‘dozens’ of Iranian sites in strikes, as Iran targets US bases in region | BBC News

Published

on



The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.

The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.

“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.

In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

Trump demands 20% toll on cargos passing through strait of Hormuz | BBC News

Published

on



President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.

He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.

Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.

Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.

The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.
