Several additional vehicles are also seen below a ridge and are parked along the path that was built to access the nuclear site, according to Maxar.

Overview

  • President Trump announced that Israel has accepted the conditions for a 60-day ceasefire and tasked Qatari and Egyptian mediators with delivering the final proposal to Hamas.
  • The White House is aiming to finalize a truce “sometime next week” and will host Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on July 7 to solidify Israel’s commitment and press Hamas to agree.
  • Hamas has offered to free the roughly 50 remaining hostages under any ceasefire deal but refuses to disarm, conflicting with Israel’s demand to dismantle the group’s military wing.
  • Gaza’s health ministry warns that hospitals are overwhelmed and dire shortages persist as 169 aid organizations call for an end to the US- and Israeli-backed aid distribution system after deadly incidents at food sites.
  • A recent airstrike on a Gaza City café and shootings at distribution points have fueled international urgency for a truce that could halt civilian suffering.
