The UN secretary-general has reacted after Israel and Hamas agreed to have a ceasefire deal to halt the war in Gaza. The conflict had lasted several months.

Syria's de facto leader Ahmed al-Sharaa said on Thursday his country is ready to welcome UN forces into the UN established buffer zone with Israel.

Israel’s cabinet voted to approve a Gaza ceasefire and hostage release deal on Saturday, the office of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said, ending days of uncertainty about whether the truce would go into effect this weekend.

Lebanon's Hezbollah is trying "to regain strength and rearm with the assistance of Iran," Israel's U.N. ambassador told the Security Council on Monday, declaring that the militants remain a "serious threat" to Israel and regional stability.

John Bolton, former U.S. ambassador to the U.N., explains on “Elizabeth Vargas Reports" the potential problems he foresees in the Israel-Hamas ceasefire. He tells NewsNation’s Hena Doba that “there is no peace for Israel as long as Hamas survives in the Gaza strip.

UN chief Antonio Guterres said on Friday that Israel's military operations and "occupation" in south Lebanon must cease, nearly two months after the truce that ended the war with Hezbollah.

The United Nations says it’s ready to ramp up the delivery of desperately needed humanitarian aid to Gaza after a ceasefire agreement and urged the removal of major security and political obstacles so it can reach all those in need.

UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said Friday peacekeepers discovered more than "100 weapons caches" belonging to Hezbollah and its allies in south Lebanon since a ceasefire between the group and Israel.

Hamas is a Palestinian armed group and political movement in the Gaza Strip. On 7 October 2023 it attacked Israel, killing about 1,200 people and taking more than 250 hostages. This triggered a massive Israeli military offensive in Gaza, which has killed tens of thousands of Palestinians.

The United Nations and Israel are arguing over who must fill the gap if U.N. Palestinian relief agency UNRWA stops working in the Gaza Strip and West Bank later this month when an Israeli law comes into force.

El gabinete de seguridad de Israel aprobó un acuerdo de alto al fuego e intercambio de rehenes y prisioneros con Hamás, allanando el camino para una pausa de semanas a los 15 meses de combates en Gaza.
