AGP Executive Report
Last update: 10 hours agoGaza War Update: Israeli forces kept up strikes across Gaza hours after Hamas agreed in principle to a Trump “Board of Peace” disarmament roadmap, with reports of a drone attack in Sheikh Radwan killing one and injuring others, and a separate strike destroying a medical warehouse near Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in Deir al-Balah. Gaza Deal Politics: Trump says the plan is for “complete disarmament” and phased Israeli withdrawal, but Israel’s position remains skeptical and Hamas says it won’t move on weapons until Israel implements withdrawal commitments. Iran Escalation: Iran’s military warned the US against “escalating tensions” and threatened retaliation on energy infrastructure if strikes come; meanwhile US and Israel are reportedly weighing major attacks on Iran’s energy sites as soon as this weekend, with no final authorization confirmed. Lebanon Front: Israel carried out large detonations near UNESCO-listed Beaufort Castle, saying it destroyed Hezbollah “terror tunnels,” while Lebanon’s leaders stress the army as the only guarantor and demand full deployment along the south. Diplomacy & Law: Trump’s campaign against the ICC is framed as protecting Netanyahu from prosecution, and the ICJ is set for September hearings on Germany’s objections in Nicaragua’s Gaza genocide case. Domestic Governance: Tel Aviv’s congestion charge is set for 2028 despite ministerial opposition, with a ring-based fee system and exemptions. Israel-US Friction: A report says Netanyahu confronted JD Vance over US criticism during a recent Washington visit. International Spat: Israel’s UN envoy sparked a Spain row over Ceuta, accusing Madrid of “colonial enclaves” in Africa.
