"I told my son to keep strong – let’s wait for dad":
Thailand hopes for return of its last Hamas hostage. Five of the last six Thai nationals have been released by Hamas. For one 9-yr-old, the agonising wait continues for return of his father. 

Narissaran Jantasang’s 9-year-old son was brimming with excitement as he watched footage of Thai hostages being released from Gaza on Thursday. Then he noticed his mother had started to cry. “He asked me: ‘what’s going on, Mom?’” Narissara says. “He realised his dad was not one of those released.”

President Donald Trump said that he’s given his advisers instructions to obliterate Iran if it assassinates him. “If they did that they would be obliterated,” Trump said in an exchange with reporters while signing an executive order calling for the U.S. government to impose maximum pressure on Tehran. “I’ve left instructions if they do it, they get obliterated, there won’t be anything left.” President Trump restored his "maximum pressure" campaign on Iran that includes efforts to drive its oil exports down to zero in order to stop Tehran from obtaining a nuclear weapon.

Trump plan to take over Gaza Strip to turn it into the "Riviera of the Middle East sparked criticism and concern from international leaders, who widely rejected the plan and reiterated support for a two-state solution.


Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva questioned the well-being of the 1.8 million Gazans this directive would displace. "And where will Palestinians go? Where will they live? In which country?” he asked.

Meanwhile, China said they opposed the "forced relocation of people in Gaza."

Trump unveiled his surprise plan, without providing specifics, at a joint press conference in Washington on Tuesday with visiting Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu
With Emperor Trump around in Israel and taking over Gaza, sure a real problem in Middle East.

CAIRO: Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu declared on Tuesday (Feb 11) that ceasefire in Gaza would end & military would resume fighting Hamas until it was defeated if Palestinian militant group did not release hostages by midday Saturday.

Following Netanyahu's ultimatum, Hamas issued a statement renewing its commitment to ceasefire & accusing Israel of jeopardising the ceasefire. Israeli announcement came after the PM met with several key ministers, including defence, foreign affairs & national security, who he said gave the ultimatum their full support.

After nearly 16 mths of war, Hamas has gradually been releasing hostages since first phase of a ceasefire began on Jan 19, but on Monday it says no free more until further notice & accusations Israel was violating the deal. "If Hamas does not return our hostages by Saturday noon - the ceasefire will end and the IDF (military) will return to intense fighting until Hamas is finally defeated," Netanyahu said. It was not immediately clear if Netanyahu meant Hamas should release all hostages held in Gaza or just the three who had been expected to be released on Saturday under the ceasefire. (Hoot-ahh, if both try tobe funny. Sad

Militant group agreed to release next three hostages that it had threatened to withhold after receiving guarantees from mediators that caravans and medical equipment would be allowed into Gaza on Thursday. Mediators from Egyptian said mediation efforts had “succeeded in overcoming obstacles" that threatened deal.😯

Yemen’s Houthis emerge from Gaza war emboldened, and with more enemies. Once a largely local threat, Houthis now challenge Israeli and Western interests, leading to increased focus.
Houthis have gone through something of a transformation in their reputation since the onset of Israel’s war on Gaza in October 2023.

A rebel group from Yemen’s far north, the Houthis had fought the Yemeni government and a Saudi-led coalition for almost a decade, proving a degree of military prowess, but had little ability to project power regionally, even as they occasionally fired missiles and drones towards Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates.
