Iran and US to resume high-stakes talks in Oman on Saturday to revive nuclear deal
BRUSSELS — Negotiations between Iran and the United States over Tehran's rapidly advancing nuclear programme are set to resume on Saturday in the Omani capital Muscat, where technical experts from both sides will attempt to iron out the details of a potential agreement.The discussions aim to curb Iran's nuclear activities in exchange for lifting economic sanctions the US has imposed on the country during nearly half a century of hostilities.US President Donald Trump has repeatedly warned he may order airstrikes against Iran's nuclear facilities if a deal is not achieved, while Iranian officials increasingly hint they could pursue nuclear weapons capability with their growing stockpile of near-weapons-grade uranium.Neither Tehran nor Washington has explained the return to...

Israeli military admits its troops killed UN worker in Gaza Strip
TEL AVIV — Israel's military has admitted killing a United Nations (UN) worker with tank fire, having previously denied responsibility, in an incident in the Gaza Strip last month.After a UN staff member was killed when a UN compound in Deir al-Balah was damaged on 19 March, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said it had not struck the site.But the IDF said on Thursday that the initial findings of its investigation into the incident indicated its troops had in fact killed the UN worker after wrongly identifying the building as containing an "enemy presence".It said in a statement: "The building was struck due to assessed enemy presence and was not identified by the forces as a UN facility."These preliminary findings have been shared with the UN and the full...

Sometimes musical.And the message unambiguous."All of Hamas, out!"On the streets of Gaza, more and more Palestinians are expressing open defiance against the armed group that's ruled the strip for almost 20 years.Many hold Hamas responsible for plunging the tiny, impoverished territory into the worst crisis faced by Palestinians in more than 70 years."Deliver the message," another crowd chants, as it surges through Gaza's devastated streets: "Hamas is garbage.""The world is deceived by the situation in the Gaza Strip," says Moumen al-Natour, a Gaza lawyer and former political prisoner who's long been a vocal critic of Hamas.Al-Natour spoke to us...

Palestinian Authority President Abbas demands Hamas to disarm and release hostages 
JERUSALEM — Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas has severely criticized Hamas, demanding the release of the remaining Israeli hostages in Gaza and the disarmament of the militant group.Abbas said the priority is to stop “the Israeli genocide that the Gaza Strip is being subjected to.” He said the hostages present an excuse for Israel to continue attacking the besieged territory.“Release the hostages and block their justifications,” Abbas said in a lengthy televised speech from Ramallah in the occupied West Bank on Wednesday.Israel has vehemently denied accusations of genocide, saying its war in Gaza is being fought in self-defense and targets Hamas.The unprecedented remarks are perhaps Abbas’s strongest public criticism of Hamas to date and mark a significant shift in...

JERUSALEM — At al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza City, Alam Hirzallah resigns himself to a grim task: registering the deaths of the wife and two children of his grieving cousin.His family brought the bodies here on an electric rickshaw or tuk-tuk. They found them in their house in eastern Gaza City after Israeli shelling hit the family home. Asma Hirzallah, Mayar, 5, and Abdullah, 3, were killed."The hospital asked for their full names and ID numbers," explains Alam, referring to the numbers all Palestinians are given in a population registry administered by Israel."They gave us a paper to confirm they were martyred and told us to come back for the death certificate.

Palestinian Red Crescent says Israeli report into Gaza medics' killings 'full of lies'
JERUSALEM — The Palestinian Red Crescent Society (PRCS) has described an Israeli military report into a deadly attack on its paramedics as "full of lies".The Israeli military said in its report that "professional failures" led to the killing of the 15 workers in Gaza. It dismissed the deputy commander of the unit involved.A spokeswoman for the PRCS said the report was "invalid" as it "justifies and shifts the responsibility to a personal error in the field command when the truth is quite different".Fourteen emergency workers and a UN worker were killed on 23 March after a convoy of PRCS ambulances, a UN car and a fire truck came under fire by the Israeli military.The UN's humanitarian chief in Gaza suggested the investigation did not go far...
