Sen. Chris van Hollen's witness, Tony Aguilar, attempted to damage the reputation of the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) after being fired for misconduct. Aguilar's claims of witnessing war crimes were contradicted by his previous praise for GHF's humanitarian work.

Breitbart: Israel Rejects Starmer's Cave on Palestinian State: 'A Reward for Hamas'
Israel has rejected UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer's proposal to recognize a Palestinian state at the upcoming UN General Assembly, citing it as a reward for Hamas and detrimental to ceasefire efforts in Gaza. The Israeli foreign ministry emphasized that such a shift follows internal political pressures in the UK.
Starmer's announcement comes amid left-wing demands within his Labour Party and after a meeting with U.S. President Donald Trump, who opposes recognizing a Palestinian state without a negotiated agreement. The lack of clarity on the state’s boundaries and governance raises further concerns for Israel.
The Telegraph: Trump has timed his Putin deadline for maximum effect
Donald Trump has announced a new, shorter deadline for Russia to agree to a ceasefire in Ukraine, reducing it from 50 days to about 10 or 12. His frustration with Vladimir Putin's lack of genuine interest in peace has led to plans for punitive sanctions against countries trading with Russia, particularly in energy.
A bipartisan group of US senators is advocating for severe secondary sanctions on nations importing Russian oil and gas, with China and India as likely targets. Trump's recent trade agreements with major economies suggest he is serious about using sanctions to pressure Moscow, which could significantly impact Russia's war efforts.
