  • Secretary of State Antony Blinken says U.S. officials have made direct contact with Hayat Tahrir al-Sham. HTS's leader condemned Israel's incursion into Syria.

The article from MSN discusses Israel's recent approval of a plan to expand settlements on the occupied Golan Heights, a move that has sparked international concern and criticism. This decision comes amidst ongoing tensions in the region, with the expansion seen as a provocative act that could further complicate peace negotiations. The plan includes the construction of new housing units and infrastructure, aimed at increasing the Israeli population in the area. Critics argue that this development violates international law, as the Golan Heights are considered Syrian territory occupied by Israel since the 1967 Six-Day War. The international community, including the United Nations, has largely condemned the move, highlighting the potential for increased conflict and the undermining of efforts towards a peaceful resolution in the Middle East.
