Times Of Israel: Gaza captor told hostages that Hamas collaborates with US campus protesters, lawsuit alleges
A lawsuit filed by former Israeli hostages claims that a Hamas member, Abdallah Aljamal, coordinated with allies on college campuses and in the media while holding them captive. The suit alleges that the Palestine Chronicle provided a platform for Hamas propaganda, violating international law.
The hostages, rescued after 246 days, assert that Aljamal expressed hatred for Israel and the U.S. and indicated that Hamas was fostering anti-Israel sentiment through media and campus connections. The case highlights concerns over the Palestine Chronicle's tax-exempt status and its alleged support for a designated terrorist organization.
The Telegraph: The ripple effect that Germany’s election could spell across Britain, the US and EU

Times Of Israel: Trump administration approves funds for Gaza aid, Red Cross after initial freeze
The Trump administration has unblocked $5.3 billion in foreign aid, primarily for security and counter-narcotics programs, with limited humanitarian assistance. This includes $78 million for Gaza and $56 million for the Red Cross amid the Israel-Hamas ceasefire.
Most of the released funds target military and drug trafficking initiatives, with over $4.1 billion allocated to the State Department's Bureau of Political-Military Affairs. However, humanitarian aid programs, particularly those under USAID, received minimal exemptions, raising concerns about the impact on global crises.

GB News: Apple users told how to protect data after ‘unprecedented’ axing of top security tool
Apple has disabled its iCloud encryption feature for UK users, making the UK the only country without this data protection. This decision follows pressure from the British government, which sought access to user data via a security backdoor that Apple refused to provide.
While some child safety advocates view the change positively, it raises concerns for the majority of users who rely on this level of privacy. Experts warn that creating backdoors could lead to risks from hackers and other governments. Users seeking data protection may need to consider alternatives outside of Apple devices.
