Hamas announced the dissolution of its governing emergency structures in the Gaza Strip today, formally paving the way for the transfer of civilian administrative authority to the U.S.-backed National Committee for the Administration of Gaza (NCAG) under the ongoing ceasefire framework.

Speaking after a press conference at Al-Aqsa Hospital in Deir al-Balah, Hamas officials confirmed the resignation of the head of the government's emergency committee and the termination of the body's activities, while technical staff will remain in place to maintain public services during the transition. "This step is intended to facilitate the entry and work of the National Committee and ensure continuity of services for our people," Hamas spokesperson Hazem Qassem said.

However, the terrorist group reiterated that the move does not include disarmament or the dismantling of military infrastructure, with Qassem stressing that "the issue of weapons is linked to the end of the occupation and the completion of Israeli withdrawals."

In practice, Hamas took a symbolic step by replacing its formal administration while retaining real control on the ground. The move is intended to pave the way for the Gaza Administration Committee to enter and assume civilian responsibilities on paper, but in practice Hamas remains firmly in charge of the Strip.

A fast-moving wildfire in southwestern France has forced the evacuation of around 10,000 people from roughly two dozen towns and villages near the Spanish border, after burning about 4,600 hectares of forest in the foothills of the French Pyrenees.

Hundreds of firefighters, supported by aircraft, are battling the blaze as strong winds and extreme heat continue to complicate containment efforts, while authorities have also restricted public access to part of the Tour de France route in the area to keep roads clear for emergency services.

Netanyahu dismisses USA "Only Ally" claim.

[Mossad International @MossadInterpol]

Netanyahu on long-term durability of the US-Israel relationship:

I won't tell you that I'm not worried about it because I think it has something to do with the penetration of social media that has been used and abused by countries — three in particular.

They've bot farms that pushed the stuff against America and against Israel...

It focuses on young people, young Americans, and I can't say that I'm not worried about the effect that it has.

It's hard because democratic countries don't have the ability to fight this — this bot war — and with the same means we are accountable.

It's not so simple, but I think you'll see a correlation between the penetration of certain social media and the decline in patriotic American feelings and support for Israel.

Over the weekend, heavy fighting erupted on Yemen’s western coast after Houthi forces launched a large-scale assault on positions held by the internationally recognized Yemeni government in the Hays district, south of the strategic port city of Hodeidah.

The attack involved suicide fighters, intensive rocket and mortar fire, and attempts to overrun frontline positions, triggering hours of fierce clashes before government troops repelled the assault.

The Yemeni government confirmed that at least 14 of its soldiers were killed and more than 20 wounded, while pro-government sources claimed that no fewer than 50 Houthi fighters were killed during the battle, making it one of the deadliest confrontations between the two sides in recent years.

Netanyahu:

We have some other friends, like a small country called India.

It has 1.4 billion people, uh, and boy, do we have tremendous support there?

This Facebook thing, and I'm just flooded by by these, by the overwhelming support there, and we have many others.

Many leaders call me up and say, hey, look, I've got this problem with public opinion, but I want you to know we respect you.

And can we make some deals, and can you teach us some of the things that your military does?

And can we have some of your AI and cyber expertise, you know?

Netanyahu:

I heard reports in the media claiming that President Trump asked us not to take action against terrorist tunnels in Lebanon. That's a myth fake news.

He didn't say anything to me about it, and I didn't ask him. We act according to our own considerations.

Oman has agreed to work with France and the United Kingdom to help secure navigation through its sovereign waters in the Strait of Hormuz, according to a July 3 joint statement by French President Emmanuel Macron and British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, who described the strait as a “vital artery” for the global economy and said both countries were ready to support a wider multinational mission for freedom of navigation.

Iran pushed back the following day, with Deputy Foreign Minister Kazem Gharibabadi warning in a statement on X that Hormuz is “not a military parade ground” for extra-regional powers and saying security in the waterway should be handled by coastal states, not outside military forces.
