The Justice Department is charging six Hamas leaders with terrorism, including the architect of the group’s deadly Oct. 7 attack against Israel.

A general strike in Israel to protest the government's failure to return hostages from Gaza led to some closures and disruptions. A major union said it was calling off the strike after a court order.

Israelis surged into the streets Sunday night to demand a cease-fire with Hamas after six hostages were found dead in Gaza. Israel's largest trade union also called a general strike for Monday.

Massive crowds protested in Tel Aviv calling for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to reach a cease-fire deal to free remaining hostages. It came after Israel's military recovered bodies in Gaza.

Israeli forces said they launched a large operation in the occupied West Bank overnight and into Wednesday, killing at least 10 Hamas militants, carrying out arrests and sealing off the city of Jenin.

An Israeli military spokesperson said the military acted in “self defense” to “remove these threats.” Hezbollah said it was still able to fire rockets and drones toward Israel.

After much speculation, Vice President Harris, now the Democratic nominee for president, came out with the strongest remarks so far on where she stands on the Israel-Hamas war and the humanitarian crisis in Gaza.
