US Flying Surveillance Drones Over Gaza To Monitor Ceasefire

The drone flights support the operations of the newly established Civil-Military Coordination Center (CMCC), staffed by some 200 American troops and officers, along with participating allied nations.

Stop 'Rooting For Failure' In Gaza: Vance In Israel Lambasts Western Media
Vice President JD Vance was in Israel Tuesday, where expressed confidence that the ceasefire in the Gaza Strip would hold, despite a brief flare-up in fighting on Sunday which saw Israeli forces launch dozens of new airstrikes.
During visit to the newly established US-Israel ceasefire coordination center in Kiryat Gat, southern Israel, Vance emphasized he's optimistic the truce will hold, but also that Hamas must be fully disarmed. He was joined by Trump's special envoy Steve Witkoff and senior adviser and the president's son-in-law Jared Kushner.

Greeks Grow Unfriendly To Israeli Tourists, Ships As Gaza War Grinds On
Though Greece is a highly popular international tourist destination for Israelis, the popularity of Israeli tourists is declining in Greece as Israel continues a war on Gaza marked by unusually high civilian casualties, imposed hunger, and the systematic and sweeping destruction of infrastructure.
