The U.S. Supreme Court upheld a law allowing victims of terrorism to sue Palestinian leadership groups in U.S. courts, reversing a lower court decision and enabling ongoing legal actions against the PA and PLO for attacks in Israel.
A Human Rights Watch report states that at least five armed Palestinian groups committed war crimes and crimes against humanity during an attack on Israeli border communities near the Gaza Strip on October 7, contradicting Hamas' claims that their combatants were instructed not to harm civilians.
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) claimed that Hamas has transferred its youngest hostage, a 10-month-old baby named Kfir Bibas, to the custody of another Palestinian group in Khan Yunis. The IDF believes that the baby is being used as leverage in negotiations between Hamas and Israel regarding the extension of the current ceasefire agreement. The city of Khan Yunis is expected to be a target for renewed bombardment once the ceasefire ends. The family of the baby, who were also kidnapped, is believed to be held by the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine. Israel maintains that Hamas remains responsible for all hostages, even if they have been passed off to other groups.
