Hamas has swiftly reestablished its hold over areas from which Israel withdrew, killing dozens of Palestinians it accused of collaborating with Israel.

Hamas rejected the United Nations Security Council passing a U.S.-drafted resolution endorsing U.S. President Donald Trump's Gaza plan, saying it fails to meet Palestinians' rights and demands and seeks to impose an international trusteeship on the enclave that Palestinians and resistance factions oppose.

The United Nations Security Council voted Monday evening to approve President Donald Trump’s peace plan for Gaza, a major diplomatic victory providing an international mandate to rebuild the Gaza Strip following two years of conflict between Israel and Hamas.

South Africa’s foreign minister says that a plane that arrived in the country last week with more than 150 Palestinians on board was part of a “broader agenda” to clear out Gaza and the West Bank through a network of chartered flights.

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.
