Secretary of State Antony Blinken was in Amman, Jordan, to meet with the nation's leaders and senior officials from other countries, including Lebanon and Qatar.

Humanitarian pauses, Blinken said, would allow necessary aid to reach Gaza while simultaneously allowing Israel to continue its fight against Hamas. A young patient receiving cancer treatment and his mom told NBC News about what it has been like to be separated from the other half of their family — the boy's father and two siblings — in Gaza.ASHDOD, Israel — Israel’s military said it carried out a deadly strike in Gaza City on Friday on an ambulance that was being “used by a Hamas terrorist cell.” Palestinian health authorities say the vehicle was part of a convoy carrying wounded people from Gaza’s besieged north to the south.

Mattar, 46, a social and humanitarian worker for the Palestinian Authority, which governs parts of the West Bank, told NBC News that he and his companions were taken to a sheep barn. There, they were stripped to their underwear, bound, beaten, photographed and urinated on, he said. The IDF added that it had opened an investigation and dismissed the commander of the unit that led the arrest.World Health Organization Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said in a post on X that he was “utterly shocked by reports of attacks on ambulances evacuating patients” in Gaza.The Gaza health ministry said 15 people were killed and 60 injured in the airstrike on an ambulance convoy near Al Shifa hospital in Gaza City on Friday.

Speaking to reporters alongside UNRWA Commissioner-General Philippe Lazzarini outside the organization’s headquarters in the Jordanian capital Amman, the secretary of state said “every single day” that UNRWA workers continued to show up in Gaza was “a lifeline for Palestinians.” “Children across the occupied Palestinian territory are increasingly caught up in a horrifying spiral of violence, while the world is watching,” Jason Lee, country director for the occupied Palestinian territories, said in the statement.A deadly attack on the Al Fakhoura School, in Gaza City’s Jabalia refugee camp, has killed 15 people and wounded 70, a spokesperson from Gaza’s ministry of health said Saturday.The U.N.

NATO member Turkey proposed a peace conference this week, and a diplomatic source in Ankara told NBC News that the country was working on a proposal to have third parties provide security for Israel and Gaza in an effort to “restart discussions for a diplomatic solution.” But Turkey’s relations with Israel are in crisis. In recent weeks President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has described Israel as “out of its mind.

The statement came after Liz Throssell, a spokesperson for the Office of the U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights, said Friday that Israeli forces are using military-like tactics to arrest Palestinians.Former President Barack Obama said in a speech last night that the world feels “more unstable and more dangerous” than it has in a long time, referencing the ongoing war between Israel and Hamas.

Neither Blinken nor Mikati spoke to reporters at the top of their meeting at a hotel in Amman, Jordan. Blinken also met with Qatar’s foreign minister, Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani, whose country has emerged as the most influential interlocutor with Hamas and has been key to negotiating the limited release of hostages held by the group.

Many other journalists, digital creators and people active on social media based in the region have seen a similar uptick in followers. Plestia Alaqad, a journalist whose work, has gained more than 2.1 million, according to the social media analytics company Social Blade. Mohammed Aborjela, a digital creator, gained 230,000.
