The British Defense Ministry hasn’t disclosed which aircraft are currently being used to help find the hostages, after the Shadow R1 used in other operations was sent to Britain.

"We find the recent humanitarian reactions coming from Europe, particularly from France and Britain, very valuable," Erdogan said in Ankara.

The nearly 300 Gazan children are expected to never return back home, sources told the Sunday Times.

This is not diplomacy – this is appeasement dressed up in the empty platitudes of international grandstanding.

Israel has no choice but to scorn such Western leaders and continue to independently secure its future, and must weather the threats of diplomatic and economic isolation from the world.

This isn’t about peace. It’s about Western leaders clinging to outdated ideas, ignoring history, rewarding terror, and playing dangerous games with Jewish lives – again.

NATIONAL AFFAIRS: Diplomatic isolation and viral imagery are shaping global perceptions. Without a coherent narrative and strategy, Israel is losing control of the story.

The only path to peace is to force Hamas to surrender and release all of the hostages, not to reward terror with a state of extremists.

Damari, who is a dual Israeli-British citizen, spent 471 days as a hostage in Hamas's terror captivity after being kidnapped during Hamas's October 7 massacre.

The forum warned that recognizing a Palestinian state before the hostages are freed would legitimize terrorism as a path to political gains.

“This is not a reward for Hamas...We've got to ratchet up pressure on the Israeli government," British Transport Minister Heidi Alexander said.
