Winter Storm Near Miss: Southern Ontario Could Still See Heavy Snow

  A major winter storm developing across the central United States is expected to track close enough to southern Ontario this weekend to bring the risk of significant snowfall. While the core of the system is projected to remain south of the border, its northern edge may still sweep across regions from Windsor to the Greater Toronto Area. Forecasters say the exact path remains uncertain, but current projections suggest that areas along and south of Highway 401 could see notable accumulations if the storm shifts even slightly north. Some models indicate the potential for 10–20 centimetres of snow, with locally higher amounts possible if lake‑enhanced bands develop.

Israeli Response to Latest Ceasefire Proposal Deemed Negative

In a recent development, a senior Hamas official revealed that Israel’s response to the group’s latest Gaza ceasefire proposal was negative. The proposal, handed over by mediators, failed to meet the demands set forth by Hamas.

Summary of Events: 

  • On Tuesday evening, the mediators informed Hamas of Israel’s position on the proposal. According to Osama Hamdan, the Israeli response was “generally negative” and did not address the critical issues at hand.
  • Hamas holds Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his government accountable for the failure to negotiate a hostage release in exchange for Palestinian prisoners and to halt the ongoing conflict in Gaza.
  • Despite weeks of negotiations, a comprehensive agreement between Israel and Hamas remains elusive. Talks have resumed this week in Qatar, but the humanitarian crisis in Gaza continues to escalate.
  • Over the past week, more than 100 aid workers have lost their lives, and dozens have been wounded in eight attacks carried out by Israeli forces.
  • As the situation remains tense, international attention remains focused on finding a resolution. The hope is that renewed dialogue will pave the way for a lasting ceasefire and alleviate the suffering of civilians caught in the crossfire.

Stay tuned for further updates as the situation unfolds.
