Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu confirmed his country is preparing a ground invasion of Gaza, and that "we are working against the clock" in preparations to destroy Hamas.
We ask about Rishi Sunak visiting Israel after Joe Biden, the king of Jordan traveling to Egypt and the German defence minister landing in Lebanon. So many peace efforts have failed over the past three decades that the international community grew tired of trying, instead hoping that Israel's US-brokered normalisation of ties with Arab states would induce a trickle-down positive effect on the Palestinians.
Public sentiment among members of the public in both Israel and Palestinian-controlled areas was moving away from the idea of creating a two-state solution for the region, even before Hamas launched terror attacks last weekend.
Meanwhile, the US Secretary of State has flown in to display support for Israel but also to negotiate a humanitarian corridor. But will that open a way out for desperate Palestinians? Gaza’s only other land border is with Egypt, which wants no part of a large influx of refugees.
WEST BANK: The Palestine soccer team has withdrawn from a tournament in Malaysia after a fresh crisis broke out between Israel and the Palestinian group Hamas over the weekend, disrupting the team’s travel arrangements, the Football Association of Malaysia (FAM) said on Tuesday. “The withdrawal came due to players being unable to travel because of the events and circumstances that the Palestinian territories are going through,” Firas Abu Hilal, secretary-general of the Palestinian Football Association, told Reuters. The Palestine national football team had been scheduled to compete in the Merdeka Cup — an international friendly tournament in Malaysia — from Oct. 13-17 along with India, Tajikistan and host country, Malaysia. Hilal said the players’ plans had been disrupted by the repeated closure of a crossing connecting Jordan to the Palestinian territories, through which they would have traveled to Malaysia. The Palestine team are due to play 2026 World Cup qualifying matches against Lebanon and Australia in November.
"If you want to look at sad statistics, apparently this (October 7) is the worst day for the Jewish people since the Holocaust," Lapid said.
Also, a controversial law on cybercrimes comes into effect in Jordan. Human rights groups say free speech can now be labelled as criminal content. FRANCE 24's Thameen Al-Kheetan brings us the details.
Meanwhile, thousands of Palestinians have fled Jenin refugee camp amid the largest Israeli military operation in years in the occupied West Bank. Medics have struggled to reach those injured.
