Do you really think, Mr. Netanyahu, that you can rename wars, hand out medals, tell tales of your heroism - and still avoid investigating the greatest national failure in Israel’s history?”

Israel has returned the bodies of 15 Palestinians to Gaza, according to officials at Nasser hospital in Khan Younis. The move is part of a U.S.

Israel’s economy significantly accelerated in the third quarter, recovering from a plunge triggered by the 12-day war with Iran in June and ahead of the ceasefire in Gaza reached in mid-October.

The U.S. military-led coordination center in charge of implementing a ceasefire agreement in Gaza is planning to open additional crossings and establish new distribution routes throughout the strip to enable the flow of much-needed humanitarian aid, a U.S. official told ABC News.

Israel said Thursday that militants have handed over the body of one of the last four remaining hostages taken during the Oct. 7, 2023, attack that launched the war in Gaza.

Foreign Minister Ronald Lamola did not say who South Africa believed had organized the chartered plane that arrived in Johannesburg on Thursday with 153 Palestinians, but his comments were seen as accusing Israel of being behind a campaign to remove people from the Palestinian territories and send them to other countries.

If the latest body turned over is confirmed by Israel to be a hostage, there will be three more in Gaza that need to be recovered and handed over.

More than 600,000 Palestinian children in Gaza have missed the past two years of school because of the war between Israel and the militant Hamas group. Instead of studying and socializing, they have been repeatedly displaced, fled airstrikes and shelling and often spent their days scouring for water and food for their families.

The U.N. Security Council is set to vote on a U.S. plan for Gaza, but a big question remains: Will Russia veto it?
