⚡️🇵🇸 - A collective announcement by the Palestinian factions, welcoming the decision to dissolve the Emergency Committee to facilitate the entry of a technocratic committee into Gaza and the formation of the upcoming government: 📝 Full statement [click to expand]:

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. We welcome the decision of the Governmental Emergency Committee in the Gaza Strip to submit its resignation, which reflects seriousness and full commitment to the success of the path of rearranging the internal Palestinian house and transferring the responsibility of managing the Gaza Strip to the National Committee for the Management of Gaza. This national step constitutes a new response to the supreme interests of the Palestinian people and requires all concerned and competent parties to accelerate and work immediately to pressure the zionist enemy to allow the National Committee for the Management of Gaza to exercise its tasks, role, and national responsibilities. We extend greetings and appreciation to our brothers in the Governmental Emergency Committee who performed their national and humanitarian role and duty under exceptional circumstances to serve our Palestinian people in Gaza, despite the oppression, killing, and systematic targeting of symbols of governmental work. We extend greetings and gratitude to all employees who performed their duty with all sincerity, dedication, and sacrifice, and were targets for the zionist criminals. We affirm that they are state employees who provided their services to their people in the most difficult circumstances, and that their employment and financial rights must be maintained and preserved, as this is an inherent right that cannot be compromised. We address all governmental agencies in Gaza, civil and security, and highly value their role. We call on them all to continue performing their national and humanitarian task, each in their position, and not to allow any vacuum in the provision of basic services to citizens, and to work to strengthen the steadfastness and perseverance of our people in the Gaza Strip during this transitional phase until the Administrative Committee assumes its duties.

#NEW ⚡️🇵🇸🇵🇸 - Circulating reports, originating from an Emirati news outlet, of Hamas announcing the "dissolving of governance over the Gaza strip" is false and misleading. Instead, Hamas has announced the complete renovation of its Emergency Committee into a interim committee, to be led by Abdul Hadi al-Agha the former Deputy Minister of Endowments and Religious Affairs in Gaza, as per the ceasefire deal agreed upon in Cairo. 📝 The now former head of the committee, Muhammad Abd al-Khaliq AlFarra in a statement today:

I submit my resignation from my position as Acting Head of the Government Work Follow-up Committee and as Head of the Governmental Emergency Committee. Those who will remain in their government positions are only employees at the service, professional, and technical levels. They will remain at their posts in order to serve our people and to prevent an administrative vacuum and a breakdown in security, in accordance with the Road Map and the agreements reached by the Palestinian factions in Cairo. Accordingly, the remaining governmental body will operate under the name ‘Temporary Authority for Government Services,’ subject to the applicable Palestinian laws and regulations.

🇨🇳❌🇦🇺🇫🇯– China test-launched an ICBM into the Pacific Ocean, marking the first such test in 44 years.

#BREAKING ⚡️🌐🇺🇸🇮🇱🇵🇸 - The US-led Board of Peace is to launch a Pilot program under Section 17 of the "Trump Plan" in southern Gaza's 'Tel AlSultan' in the coming weeks, similar to the 2025 "Humanitarian aid distribution" campaign which ended in disaster. The program is to include the first operational deployment of the ISF (International Stabilization Force), consisted of 20,000 Personnel, mostly from Indonesia, Morocco, Kazakhstan and Albania. The ISF personnel are to arrive in the coming weeks. Fenced "Temporary Rehabilitation" areas are to be established "Free of Hamas". The Areas will include caravans for medical purposes and other services. No concrete is to enter the Gaza strip deliberately, to prohibit the reconstruction of the areas, say Senior IDF officers. The intent from this program is to "disconnect the Gazan population from Hamas", and to allow the IDF to advance further beyond the established "Yellow Line". Reminder than Israel's PM Benjamin Netanyahu had announced the intent to increase the IDF's control of Gaza by +10%, weeks ago. Read here for details.
