"Escalating Israel-Hamas Conflict Sparks Global Outrage: Live Updates"

The Israel-Hamas war continues to escalate, with foreign nationals being allowed to leave Gaza through the Rafah crossing, which has faced delays and frustrations. The Israeli military denies firing at Al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza and claims it is not under siege, while the Hamas-controlled health ministry says the hospital is surrounded and staff and patients are unable to evacuate. Pro-Palestinian demonstrations are taking place worldwide, including a massive rally in London with an estimated 300,000 attendees. Arab and Muslim leaders at a summit in Riyadh call for a ceasefire and condemn Israeli aggression, while Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah vows to keep pressure on Israel. The head of the UN relief agency warns that the people of Gaza are being "choked" by the bombardment and siege, and the Iranian president attends the summit in Saudi Arabia to "save the Palestinians."

"Suella Braverman's Controversial Clash with Police Sparks Political Storm"

Pro-Palestinian demonstrations in the UK against the Israeli bombing of Gaza have been mostly peaceful, although there have been controversial chants and signs and some arrests. Home Secretary Suella Braverman has called for the postponement of an upcoming demonstration, but her calls have been rejected. Braverman is pressuring the Metropolitan police to enforce a ban, but they have resisted so far. The escalating war of words and the potential involvement of far-right groups raise the risk of trouble.

Authorities in Southern California are investigating the death of a Jewish man, Paul Kessler, who fell and struck his head during a confrontation with a pro-Palestinian demonstrator at a demonstration in Thousand Oaks. Conflicting witness accounts have made it unclear what led to the fall, and investigators have not ruled out the possibility of a hate crime. No arrests have been made, and officials are asking for video footage to aid in their investigation. Tensions have been escalating in the United States amid the Israel-Hamas war, and authorities are urging the public to refrain from spreading rumors or misinformation.

"Massive Pro-Palestinian Demonstrations Sweep Germany"

Thousands of people in Germany participated in pro-Palestinian demonstrations in various cities, calling for an end to violence in Gaza. The largest demonstration took place in Düsseldorf, with an estimated 7,000 participants. While the events remained largely peaceful, two leaders of a pro-Palestinian march in Münster were temporarily detained for illegal chants. A march scheduled in Berlin was canceled due to concerns of incitement, antisemitic slogans, and violence. In the UK, about 100,000 people joined a pro-Palestinian demonstration in London, calling for an immediate cease-fire in Gaza.
