How are killer drones reshaping the conflict in Sudan

The Board of Peace is set to hold its first meeting, chaired by US President Donald Trump. On the table is the ceasefire in Gaza and fundraising for its reconstruction. Around two dozen countries have signed on to the Board of Peace – but many key US allies have not. Meanwhile, Trump has said the vision for Gaza extends “far beyond” it. Who’s in, who’s out, and what does it mean for Gaza and the world?

Who made the cut on Trump’s ‘Board of Peace’ and what they want

The Israeli government has approved a plan to claim large areas of the occupied West Bank as “state property” if Palestinians cannot prove ownership, prompting regional outcry and accusations of “de facto annexation.” The move forces Palestinians to navigate complex legal hurdles after decades of occupation and displacement, amid continued Jewish settlement expansion. What could this mean for the future of Palestinian land?
