Gaza Truce and Hostage Deal Faces Last-Minute Crisis

  In a dramatic turn of events, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced that a last-minute crisis with Hamas is delaying the approval of a highly anticipated ceasefire and hostage release agreement. The deal, which was set to be approved by the Israeli Cabinet, has been put on hold as Netanyahu accused Hamas of reneging on parts of the agreement in an attempt to gain further concessions. The ceasefire, brokered by U.S. President Joe Biden and key mediator Qatar, was expected to bring a temporary halt to the 15-month conflict in the Gaza Strip and facilitate the release of dozens of hostages held by Hamas. However, Netanyahu's office stated that the Cabinet would not convene to approve the agreement until Hamas backs down from its new demands. Hamas, on the other hand, has denied the allegations, with senior official Izzat al-Rishq asserting that the militant group remains committed to the ceasefire agreement.

HOROSCOPES IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY

Be careful what you choose to believe over the coming year because if your thoughts start moving in strange directions they could get lost down a rabbit hole you find it hard to climb out of again. An open mind is a very good thing … within limits.

ARIES (March 21 - April 20):

There is no point getting angry or upset about things you cannot change, so accept that something is going to happen and then adapt to it as best you can. Save your emotional energy to channel into areas where you can make a difference.

TAURUS (April 21 - May 21):

Mars in your fellow Earth sign of Capricorn urges you to be bold and follow your dream, even if you cannot see how it will ever come true. Believing in yourself and what you are doing is half the battle. The universe will do the rest.

GEMINI (May 22 - June 21):

You seem to be in two minds about whether to take a new relationship seriously or whether to treat it as a bit of fun and not expect too much from it. What occurs today is likely to suggest that it could be more than just another fling.

CANCER (June 22 - July 23):

If your sixth sense tells you to be cautious today you must take it seriously, because the planets warn if you make a mistake, even one of a quite minor nature, the consequences won’t be to your liking. Leave the risky stuff to other people.

LEO (July 24 - Aug. 23):

You will have to call on all your powers of self-control over the next 24 hours as someone you work or do business with rubs you up the wrong way. The planets indicate that hitting back at them is not worth the time or the effort. Walk away instead.

VIRGO (Aug. 24 - Sept. 23):

Push ahead with what you are working on even if it is taking up a lot more time and energy than you expected. Today’s Mercury-Neptune link will help you come up with new ways to get from where you are now to where you most want to be.

LIBRA (Sept. 24 - Oct. 23):

If a friend says something you find a bit insulting today don’t make an issue of it. Most likely they don’t mean to be cruel, they are just trying to put into words what they feel to be true. They may even have something worthwhile to say.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24 - Nov. 22):

If you get the chance to speak up today you must take it, even if you know that some people – maybe most people – won’t be delighted by the conclusions you have reached. You know from personal experience that the truth can be hard to take.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 - Dec. 21):

If you need some time and space for yourself today and over the weekend then you must take it, because others are not going to back away by choice. Find a place where the noisy world cannot intrude and get your thoughts in order.
