"Trump's response to the question of 'Turkish soldiers' deployment to Gaza': 'It would be good.'"

 Netanyahu is making his fifth visit to the United States since the start of Trump’s second presidential term.

U.S. President Donald Trump said on Monday that he has a “very good relationship” with President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan and emphasized that he would discuss the “possibility of deploying Turkish troops to Gaza” during his meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

Speaking ahead of his meeting with Netanyahu at the Mar-a-Lago resort in Palm Beach, Florida, Trump was asked whether, under the 20-point Gaza ceasefire plan’s proposed International Stability Force, “Turkish soldiers would or would not be deployed in Gaza.” He responded, “I have a very good relationship with President Erdoğan, and we will talk about it. If it is appropriate, I think it would be good.”


Trump underlined that the matter “concerns Netanyahu.”

Netanyahu is making his fifth visit to the United States since the beginning of Trump’s second presidential term.

The visit is taking place at a time when negotiations are ongoing over moving to the second phase of the Gaza ceasefire plan, which came into force in October.

The first phase of the ceasefire agreement included a halt to hostilities, a partial withdrawal of Israeli forces, the exchange of all living and deceased Israeli hostages for hundreds of Palestinians held by Israel, and the entry of “full-scale humanitarian aid” into Gaza.

The second phase of Trump’s 20-point peace plan envisages Israel’s complete withdrawal from Gaza, the disarmament of Hamas, the deployment of a stability force, and the establishment of a committee made up of Palestinian “technocrats” to temporarily govern Gaza.

Israel opposes the inclusion of Turkish troops within the International Stability Force.

The Israel–Hamas war began on October 7, 2023, when Hamas-led militants launched an attack on southern Israel, killing around 1,200 people — mostly civilians — and taking approximately 250 hostages.

Since the ceasefire began on October 10, Gaza’s Health Ministry reports that 414 people have been killed and 1,142 wounded in the coastal enclave. Since the start of the war, the total Palestinian death toll is reported to be at least 71,266.

The ministry does not distinguish between civilians and militants in its casualty figures. However, detailed records kept by health workers are generally regarded as reliable by the international community.

Rain and Fireplace Sounds: Nature’s Natural Stress Relievers

Image
 In today’s fast-paced world, finding a moment of peace can be challenging. Yet, something as simple as the sound of rain falling or a crackling fireplace can have profound effects on our mind and body. Let’s explore why these natural sounds make us feel so calm and content. 1. Biological Benefits on the Brain Listening to rain or a fireplace increases alpha brain waves, which are linked to relaxation and a calm, yet alert state. These sounds also help reduce cortisol, the stress hormone, slowing the heart rate and lowering blood pressure. Additionally, they can boost serotonin and oxytocin, hormones associated with happiness, well-being, and comfort. 2. White Noise Effect Both rain and fireplace sounds act like white noise, masking sudden or distracting sounds in the environment. This “sound blanket” helps the brain feel safer, making it easier to focus, relax, or fall asleep, even in noisy surroundings. 3. Evolutionary and Psychological Comfort Humans have evolved to feel safe ne...

"Drone Attack Where Putin is Located: How Will It Affect the Peace Process?"

Image
 Moscow has maintained its claim that a Ukrainian unmanned aerial vehicle targeted a location where Putin was present. Kyiv, along with EU and U.S. officials, however, view these allegations as an attempt to undermine U.S.-led peace talks. On Wednesday, Moscow reiterated its claims that a drone allegedly belonging to Ukraine targeted President Vladimir Putin’s residence — an incident that allies have described as an attempt to sabotage U.S.-led efforts to end Russia’s full-scale war. In the latest move to support the Kremlin’s allegations, Russia’s Ministry of Defense released a video late Monday night showing what it claimed was a downed drone, alleging it had targeted Putin’s residence in Novgorod. The footage shows a damaged drone lying on snow in a forested area at night. In the video, a masked Russian military personnel can be seen speaking about the unmanned aerial vehicle as the camera shows close-up shots of the drone and its internal components. In another part of the ...
