US and Israel's Move Likely to Anger Putin

US administration is reported to have sent Israel's Patriot missiles to Ukraine via Poland. Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu approved the move in September 2024, despite initial concerns about Russian reaction. Meanwhile, Gazans continue to return to Northern Gaza despite the heavy destruction caused by Israeli attacks.

Gazans Return to Northern Gaza

Despite the severe destruction caused by Israeli attacks, Gazans are returning to Northern Gaza. Over 376,000 Palestinians have crossed into the region since the opening of the Netzarim Corridor on Monday. The majority of those returning are facing substantial damage to their homes, with reports indicating around 90% destruction in the North. Despite these challenges, Gazans express their determination to stay on their land.

Israel Concerned about US Troop Withdrawal from Syria

Israel is reportedly concerned about US President Donald Trump's intention to withdraw thousands of American troops from Syria. The move is expected to impact both the political and military landscape in Israel, with particular concerns about its effect on the Kurdish population in Syria. Israeli Defense Minister Yisrael Katz previously emphasized the permanence of Israel's presence on the Golan Heights.

Netanyahu Invited to White House

Following President Trump's official inauguration, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has been invited to the White House on February 4th. This marks the first foreign leader invited by Trump in his second term. The meeting is expected to address issues such as the ceasefire in Gaza and Lebanon.
