“Every week Israel must kill no more than 80% of the children it killed the week before”

This is the best summary I could come up with:

A morning meeting ended without a vote as closed-door negotiations continued on a new draft, sponsored by the United Arab Emirates and seen by The Washington Post, that eliminated the word “cease-fire,” which was present in a version offered Monday.

The Biden administration has vetoed several cease-fire resolutions, arguing that ending Israel’s offensive in Gaza while leaving Hamas’s military capabilities intact and its top leaders in place would effectively hand the militant group a victory.

U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin on Tuesday hosted a virtual conference from Bahrain on Red Sea maritime security after more than a dozen attacks on shipping in recent weeks by Iran-aligned Houthi rebels, who have said they are acting in solidarity with Hamas.

Austin urged the international community to respond to the “unprecedented series of attacks” and “deter future Houthi aggression” with “collective action” to protect “the fundamental principle of freedom of navigation,” according to a Pentagon readout.

The European Union, NATO and several Pacific nations joined the United States on Tuesday in condemning “Houthi interference with navigational rights and freedoms in the waters around the Arabian Peninsula, particularly the Red Sea.”

Tor Wennesland, the U.N. special coordinator for the Middle East peace process, told the Security Council on Tuesday morning that humanitarian efforts to aid more than 2 million Gazans in dire need are “near the brink” of collapse in the face of “nearly insurmountable challenges, amid displacement on an unimaginable scale.”

The original article contains 1,234 words, the summary contains 238 words. Saved 81%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!

Hamas could release the hostages at any time and surrender.

How do people honestly think they’re acting in the Palestinians best interests?
