Palestine supporters gather in London, demanding an end to the Israel-Hamas conflict, causing significant disruption in the city. The marches, expected to continue for months, call for a ceasefire. Meanwhile, a former homeless drug addict accuses San Francisco Supervisor Dean Preston of diverting attention away from the homelessness issue by blaming capitalism. Preston argues that capitalism and inconsistent drug arrest policies contribute to homelessness in District 5, which he represents. Critics contend that leftist policies aggravate the drug crisis. 

Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh insists that any postwar plan without the involvement of his group would be a "delusion." While open to negotiations, Haniyeh does not mention coexistence with Israel. Another Hamas member tentatively suggests recognizing the Israeli state, but it remains unclear if this viewpoint is widely supported. In response, Israel refuses to engage in talks with Hamas and vows to sustain its military offensive.
