Ndiyo kapoteza public relation na support ya marafiki zake, na ujue Israel bila US au Ufaransa na UK ni sawa sawa kama Tanzania........
Duh! Watu mnapenda kuota! Hivi unaijua Israel wewe? Tekinolojia nyingi Duniani ni za wayahudi. Hata google ni ya myahudi. Hata sababu ya mataifa kama US, Uk na Germany kuiunga mkono Israel ni kutokana na nguvu ya wayahudi kwenye mataifa yao. Pia ujue kuwa Wayahudi ni jamii inayotajwa kuongoza kwa utajiri Duniani, na wamesambaa Dunia nzima. Fikiria, wakati Tanzania hata kupata tu mkopo wa dola bilioni 1 ni shida, watu binafsi wa jamii ya wayahudi huko US imewachangia wayahudi wenzao wa Israel dola bilioni 1.4.

Israel’s Rafah invasion threat “raises questions about the purpose of resuming negotiations”, Hamas spokesperson Sami Abu Zahry tells Al Jazeera.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says a date has been set for a ground offensive in the southern Gaza city of Rafah, where about 1.4 million displaced Palestinians are sheltering, even as the United States reiterates its opposition to a full-scale ground invasion.

Germany argues UN court lacks jurisdiction to rule on ‘provisional measures’
Samuel Wordsworth, counsel and advocate for Germany, argues the International Court of Justice cannot order any provisional measures against Germany because Nicaragua has not proven it even has jurisdiction in the case.
“Alleged violations of international law by Israel constitute the essential bedrock of Nicaragua’s application and request,” Wordsworth told the court.
“Yet Nicaragua must establish that at least prima facie, the court is able to exercise jurisdiction, and it cannot do so, given the manifest absence of an indispensable third party, namely Israel.”

Israel confirms striking military sites in southern Syria
The Israeli army says it carried out overnight attacks on sites belonging to the Syrian army in southern Syria.
A military statement said air raids hit Syrian army posts in the town of Mhajjah in response to rocket fire on Israel-occupied Golan Heights. Another Syrian military post was shelled with artillery.
There were no reports yet of casualties or damage. Several Israeli attacks were reported in Syria in recent months.
Last week, at least seven members of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps were killed, including two top generals, in an attack on the Iranian consulate in Damascus.

Israel threatens Turkey with retaliation after export ban
Israel’s foreign minister says Turkey has “unilaterally violated” trade agreements with its decision to restrict exports to Israel and Israel will respond with its own trade restrictions on products coming from Turkey.
Israel Katz said Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan “is again sacrificing the economic interests of the people of Turkey in order to support Hamas, and we will respond in kind”.
Turkey, which has denounced Israel for its attack on the densely populated Gaza Strip and has called for an immediate ceasefire, has sent tens of thousands of tonnes of humanitarian aid there since the start of the war on October 7.

About 55% of Khan Younis structures destroyed or damaged: Analysts
An estimated 55 percent of the buildings in the Khan Younis area – about 45,000 buildings – have been destroyed or damaged, according to Corey Scher of the City University of New York and Jamon Van Den Hoek of Oregon State University, two mapping experts who used satellite imagery to track destruction.
The scenes in Khan Younis underscored what has been one of the world’s most destructive and lethal military assaults in recent decades, leaving most of the tiny coastal territory unlivable for its 2.3 million people.
It also portended what is likely to happen in Gaza’s southernmost town of Rafah, where half of Gaza’s uprooted population is now crowded, if Israel goes ahead with plans to invade it.[

More from Germany’s defence at International Court of Justice
Germany’s legal representative Christian Tams, speaking at the ICJ, hit back at Nicaragua’s claims that Germany is violating the UN’s 1948 Genocide Convention by supplying Israel arms and “defunding” the UN agency for Palestinian refugees UNRWA.
Here are his key arguments so far:
Germany’s defence cooperation with Israel is based on a robust legal framework that ensures compliance with international law. Since October 7, nearly all German military exports to Israel have been “defensive in nature”.
Germany has demonstrated a commitment to supporting Palestinians from early on in the Gaza war, including by providing hundreds of millions of euros in humanitarian assistance to the occupied Palestinian territory.
Germany has not defunded UNRWA, as Nicaragua claimed, but made a temporary decision not to approve further funds to the agency on January 27 after allegations against UNRWA members, which had no direct impact on the agency’s operations. Germany has since resumed funding for UNRWA operations in the occupied West Bank, Jordan, and elsewhere.[

Governments should impose sanctions on Israel to force aid into Gaza: HRW
Human Rights Watch has called for “targeted sanctions” and the suspension of arms transfer to press Israel to ensure access to humanitarian aid and basic services in Gaza.
The rights group said in a statement children in the besieged and bombarded territory have been dying from starvation-related complications since the Israeli government began “using starvation as a weapon of war, a war crime”.
“Governments outraged by the Israeli government starving civilians in Gaza should not be looking for band-aid solutions to this humanitarian crisis,” said Omar Shakir, Israel and Palestine director at HRW.
“Israel’s announcement that it will increase aid shows that outside pressure works. Israel’s allies like the US, UK, France, and Germany need to press for full-throttle aid delivery by immediately suspending their arms transfers.”
As we reported earlier, France’s Foreign Minister Stephane Sejourne also said today that pressure, and possibly sanctions, must be imposed on Israel to open crossings to get humanitarian assistance into Gaza.

Could a ceasefire deal be agreed on tomorrow?

Imran Khan
Reporting from occupied East Jerusalem
The Americans have been very clear to Israel that they don’t want any kind of ground offensive on southern Rafah.
They’ve given the Israelis options to fight this war in Rafah in a different way. Are the Israelis listening? Well, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu – his comments are very strong and they could be appealing to his hard far-right base – is calling for that imminent operation in Gaza.
There is also talk going on that there could be a framework for a ceasefire negotiation, which may well be signed imminently. In fact, the leader of the opposition, Yair Lapid, says he’s willing to give the government a safety net in order to get the deal done.
William Burns, the CIA director, was actually at those talks in Cairo. He’s been putting pressure on Israel as well. The Americans want to see some sort of ceasefire negotiation become successful and it put in place.
But Hamas and Israel are both playing the negotiations down. There’s a meeting in 24 hours’ time; all eyes are now going to be on that.
