A judge has ruled that the Pentagon “exceeded the bounds of their authority” by ordering troops into the nation’s capital for “non-military, crime-deterrence missions” without the express permission of the city’s leadership. trib.al/0D6e8P1

🗞️ Egypt Claims It Won’t Be Washington’s Enforcer in Gaza

After supporting the neo-colonialist UN resolution for a foreign occupation of Gaza, Cairo is pushing back against the impression that it will rush in to carry out the American plan on the ground. A senior Egyptian official told Al-Araby Al-Jadeed that Egypt will not enter Gaza or join any international force unless the terms protect Palestinian rights and preserve Egypt’s regional legitimacy. Any role, he claims, will be defined by Egypt alone, and not the U.S., not Israel. Here’s more of what he said: ▪️ Egypt won’t move forward until there are full, multilateral negotiations with all regional and international actors. ▪️ Cairo won’t base any deployment on a memorandum of understanding with Washington; it wants broader political guarantees. ▪️ Officials fear being seen as participating in a system that controls Gaza, which could damage Egypt’s standing with Palestinians and the wider Arab public. ▪️ Egypt claims it will not enable new security or political “facts on the ground” that undermine Palestinian sovereignty. ▪️ The official stressed that Egypt will set the limits of its role, and it will reject any arrangement Palestinians themselves do not accept. This statement comes after two years of genocide during which Egypt quietly deepened intelligence and security ties with Israel and U.S. —a pattern highlighted in UN Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese’s recent report listing Egypt among 63 states complicit in enabling the mass destruction and humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza Strip. She also highlights Egypt as one of the Arab states that “maintained significant… relations with Israel … including energy cooperation and the closing of the Rafah crossing” during the genocide.

🚨 Hamas has released a statement detailing the “violations by the occupation of the ceasefire agreement signed in Sharm El-Sheikh one month after its implementation.”

It reads in full:

We, in the Islamic Resistance Movement Hamas, reaffirm our thanks and appreciation to the efforts of the brotherly mediators, all the countries, international and humanitarian organizations, as well as the free people of the world who took a brave moral and humanitarian stand by rejecting the genocide carried out by the occupation against our people in Gaza. We also value the efforts of the mediators who contributed to reaching the ceasefire agreement. As part of the Movement's and the resistance forces’ commitment to implementing the agreement, based on our national and humanitarian responsibilities, we call on the brotherly mediators, guarantors, countries, and international organizations to continue exerting pressure on the occupation and obliging it to stop its repeated violations and breaches, which aim to undermine the agreement and sabotage the efforts to solidify and sustain it, which have been as follows: First: Hamas's full and thorough commitment to the agreement Since the ceasefire agreement signed in Sharm El-Sheikh came into effect, the resistance forces have fully and accurately adhered to implementing the agreement in good faith. They successfully handed over the twenty live captive Israeli soldiers within 72 hours of the implementation’s start. They also continued their careful search for the remains of Israeli soldiers, despite the numerous complications, through coordinating daily with the mediators and the International Red Cross. This was done despite the severe field conditions caused by the war, its complete alteration of the landscape of Gaza and destruction of its infrastructure, the occupation controlling 60% of the Strip’s territory, the work being done amidst hundreds of tons of unexploded ordnance dropped by the occupation, the lack of excavation machinery and debris removal equipment, which the occupation continues to block from entering, many of the resistance fighters guarding the Israeli captives being martyred, and the bodies of hundreds of resistance fighters and Palestinian civilians disappearing with no trace, with some of them potentially being Israeli prisoners. However, the movement managed to locate 24 bodies out of 28, and through the mediators and the International Red Cross, it provided coordinates of additional locations of bodies in areas under the occupation’s control. The movement continues its intensive efforts to locate the remaining bodies. The movement has left no pretext that the occupation attempts to fabricate unanswered, consistently proving through actions and field facts its full commitment to the terms and spirit of the agreement. Second: Violations by the occupation one month after the agreement The occupation has not ceased since the start of the agreement to undermine and violate it on a daily and moment-by-moment basis, as well as fabricating pretexts. These include: 1. Killing and targeting civilians: 271 Palestinians were martyred as a result of deliberate shelling and gunfire by the occupation forces. More than 91% of the martyrs were civilians, with 94% of them located inside the "Yellow Line”, with the rest near it. Among the martyrs were 107 children, 39 women, and 9 elderly individuals, meaning that 58% of those killed were children, women, and the elderly. This scene highlights the continued policy of systematic killing against defenseless civilians by the occupation. (1/4 continues below)

Human Rights Watch says Israel forcibly displaced 32,000 Palestinians from three camps in the occupied West Bank during “Operation Iron Wall”, calling it a war crime and urging investigations into senior officials, including PM Benjamin Netanyahu.

"We’re creating something even more dangerous to the country: A masked monster of a law enforcement agency, one uniquely unsuited for its new power, authority, reach, and funding levels."
Spending $200 billion on ICE is a terrible idea
I've covered federal law enforcement for two decades. Here are the things that worry me most.

Israel deported more than 150 freed Palestinian prisoners last month. Some experts in Israel warn it could have long-term consequences for Israeli security.
