Walid Saadaoui, 38, and Amar Hussein, 52 , were convicted at Preston Crown Court after investigators uncovered their plan to smuggle automatic weapons and ammunition into the UK. Authorities revealed that the men intended to launch a gun rampage targeting mass gatherings of Jewish people. Saadaoui had arranged for four AK-47 rifles, two pistols, and 900 rounds of ammunition to be imported, believing he was working with a fellow extremist. In reality, he was communicating with an undercover operative known as “Farouk,” who exposed the plot.

Trump Unveils Sweeping Gaza Peace Blueprint with Global Oversight

A Trump economic development plan to rebuild and energize Gaza will be created by convening a panel of experts.

U.S. President Donald J. Trump has announced a 20-point comprehensive peace plan aimed at ending the devastating Gaza war, which has claimed tens of thousands of lives and left the enclave in ruins. Standing alongside Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the White House, Trump outlined a framework that combines an immediate ceasefire, hostage exchanges, humanitarian relief, and long-term reconstruction.

Under the proposal, all hostages held in Gaza—alive or deceased—would be returned within 72 hours of Israel’s acceptance. In exchange, Israel would release over 1,900 Palestinian prisoners, including women and children. The plan also calls for Hamas to disarm and relinquish political control, with members offered amnesty or safe passage abroad if they renounce violence.

A temporary technocratic Palestinian administration, supported by international experts, would govern Gaza during a transitional period. Oversight would be provided by a newly created “Board of Peace” chaired by Trump, with former British Prime Minister Tony Blair among its members. This body would coordinate aid, infrastructure rebuilding, and economic development initiatives.

The plan has drawn mixed reactions worldwide. Netanyahu endorsed it as a path to dismantle Hamas’ military capabilities, while the Palestinian Authority welcomed it as a step toward unifying Palestinian institutions and advancing a two-state solution. Hamas, however, has yet to formally accept, with internal divisions complicating its response.

Supporters argue the initiative offers the best chance in years to halt the bloodshed and rebuild Gaza. Critics warn that requiring Hamas’ disarmament could stall progress and risk prolonging the conflict. For now, the world watches closely as both sides weigh whether this ambitious plan can finally deliver peace to Gaza.
