Tyskland anklagas för att runda folkrätten

Ett år efter Hamas terrorattack mot Israel har Tyskland fortsatt svårt att hantera protester mot kriget i Gaza. Under helgens bokmässa i Frankfurt, som avslutades på söndagen, anklagades landet av den tysk-israeliska filosofen Omri Boehm för att runda folkrätten.

Efter Hamas-ledarens död: Vad händer nu?

Efter Hamas-ledarens död: Vad händer nu?

▸ Israel dödade en av Hamas högste ledare, Yahya Sinwar, i förra veckan. Nu pratas det om att händelsen kan bli början på slutet av kriget. Det är över ett år sedan Hamas överraskade Israel med terrorattacken som dödade över 1300 personer. Hamas har tagit flera som gisslan men Netanyahu har kritiserats för att inte göra tillräckligt för att få dem fria. Nu undrar många om dödandet av Sinwar kan ändra på premiärministerns inställning. Både till att få loss gisslan men också att få fart på förhandlingarna om vapenvila. Kan Sinwars död vara början på slutet av kriget? Har Hamas någon annan ledare som är redo att ta över och vad kommer Netanyahu göra framöver? Gäst: Wolfgang Hansson, Aftonbladets utrikespolitiska kommentator. Programledar och producent: Jenny Ågren. Klipp från: DW News, Sky News, CBS News.

Hamas nya ledare hålls hemlig – efter Sinwars död

Hamas nya ledare hålls hemlig – efter Sinwars död

Av säkerhetsskäl kommer Hamas sannolikt att hålla identiteten på sin nya ledare hemlig, säger en källa inom den terrorstämplade rörelsen till BBC. Planen är att välja en ny ledare i mars nästa år, och fram till dess kommer Hamas att styras av en kommitté med fem medlemmar, enligt kanalen. En av de fem, Khalil al-Hayya, har tillfälligt tagit på sig ansvaret för de flesta av rörelsens politiska och utrikesfrågor och anses därför vara den tillförordnade Hamasledaren, enligt den källa som BBC talat med. Förvånade att Israel lyckades döda Sinwar I fredags bekräftade Hamas att dess ledare Yahya Sinwar var död efter att israeliska myndigheter dagen innan uppgett att Sinwar dödats i en eldstrid av israeliska soldater i södra delen av Gaza. Hamaskällan säger till BBC att terrorgruppen blev förvånade över Sinwars död, eftersom de trodde att han befann sig på en säkrare plats. Förra veckan lade IDF ut en drönarvideo som uppges visa Sinwars dödsögonblick. På videon syns en nästintill livlös person sitta i en fåtölj ett söndersprängt hus. Personen försöker kasta en planka mot drönaren som filmar. Har hänt tidigare Hamas har även tidigare hållit sin ledares identitet hemlig. Detta skedde även efter mordet på Hamas grundare och ledare Ahmed Yassin och hans efterträdare Abdel Aziz al-Rantisi.

al-Qaida vill att Hamas släpper gisslan

al-Qaida vill att Hamas släpper gisslan

Uttalandet gjordes online på fredagen av Mustafa Hamid, som är svärfar till Saif al-Adel som allmänt anses leda nätverket, uppger den amerikanska underrättelsegruppen Site som övervakar extremism på nätet. Hamid anser att uppmärksamheten som ges till att få hem den israeliska gisslan – både döda och levande – överskuggar frågan om de palestinska fångar som sitter i israeliska fängelser. Vidare hyllar han Hamasledaren Yahya Sinwar, som dödades i en israelisk attack i onsdags. ”Ingen bryr sig om de palestinska fångarna, varken medier, förhandlingar eller demonstrationer”, lyder en del av uttalandet. Över 100 israeliska gisslan är kvar i fångenskap i Gaza sedan Hamas terrorattack mot Israel den 7 oktober i fjol. Det är dock oklart hur många av gisslan som fortfarande är vid liv. Terrorstämplade Hamas uppgav på fredagen att gruppen inte kommer att släppa gisslan förrän kriget har avslutats. al-Qaida hålls ansvarigt för en rad dödliga terrorattentat, bland annat attackerna mot World Trade Center och Pentagon i USA den 11 september 2001.

‘This Is How Hamas Is Seeing This’

Here are two thoughts I believe need to be held at once: Hamas’s attack on Oct. 7 was heinous, murderous and unforgivable, and that makes it more, not less, important to try to understand what Hamas is, how it sees itself and how it presents itself to Palestinians.Tareq Baconi is the author of “Hamas Contained: The Rise and Pacification of Palestinian Resistance,” one of the best books on Hamas’s rise and recent history. He’s done extensive work interviewing members of Hamas and mapping the organization’s beliefs and structure.In this conversation, we discuss the foundational disagreement between Hamas and the Palestine Liberation Organization, why Hamas fought the Oslo peace process, the “violent equilibrium” between Hamas and the Israeli right wing, what Hamas’s 2017 charter reveals about its political goals, why the right of return is sacred for many Palestinians (and what it means in practice), how the leadership vacuum is a “core question” for Palestinians, why democratic elections for Palestinians are the first step toward continuing negotiations in the future and more.Book Recommendations:The Hundred Years’ War on Palestine by Rashid KhalidiReturning to Haifa by Ghassan KanafaniLight in Gaza edited by Jehad Abusalim, Jennifer Bing and Mike Merryman-LotzeThoughts?

The Israel-Hamas hostage deal, explained

It’s been nearly seven weeks since 240 Israeli hostages were seized in a terrorist attack by Hamas. The attack was followed by intense retaliatory bombings of the Gaza strip by the Israeli army and thousands of Palestinians have been killed. Finally, a deal for the release of some hostages has been brokered between Hamas and Israel, and a four-day ceasefire in Gaza may begin on Friday. So what has been happening behind the scenes to bring the deal about? And what does this pivotal moment mean for the future of the conflict?This podcast was brought to you thanks to the support of readers of The Times and The Sunday Times.
