AGP Executive Report

Last update: 3 hours ago

Gaza Rules of Engagement Under Fire: An Israeli Channel 13 investigation, citing anonymous soldier testimony, alleges troops were ordered to “kill immediately” any man encountered in Gaza—including people with white flags—sharpening scrutiny of Israel’s rules during the war. Hormuz Escalation: Iran’s adviser Mohammad Mokhber likened the Strait of Hormuz to an “atomic bomb” as US strikes hit Iranian tankers and a fragile ceasefire keeps getting violated. Nuclear Diplomacy Pressure: Iran’s President Masoud Pezeshkian told Iraq it can prove the “peaceful nature” of its nuclear program, while Baghdad floated hosting talks—against the backdrop of the JCPOA collapse and removed IAEA monitoring. Ceasefire Deadlock in Gaza: A US-backed “Board of Peace” letter says Israel isn’t bound if Hamas won’t disarm, with disarmament tied to a second phase of the October 2025 truce. Jerusalem Anti-Christian Tensions: Israel indicted a West Bank settler over an assault on a Catholic nun near the Old City, adding to concerns about religious hostility.
