The latest push for a cease-fire in Gaza.
By Daniel E. Slotnik
Israel wrestled with invading Rafah as negotiators sought a cease-fire
International diplomats converged yesterday on the Middle East to press for a cease-fire between Israel and Hamas as Israel wrestled with whether to begin a ground invasion of Rafah in southern Gaza, according to Israeli analysts and officials. The officials said that they were open to holding off on an invasion if it meant that Israeli hostages taken during the Oct. 7 attacks would be released.
Benny Gantz, a member of Israel’s war cabinet, said that freeing the estimated 100 or so remaining hostages “is urgent and much more important” than entering Rafah.
Pressure on Israel to stop the fighting seemed to be growing. President Biden warned Israel’s prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, against invading Rafah and pressed for a cease-fire on a call, and officials said they believed that the International Criminal Court was preparing to issue arrest warrants for senior Israeli and Hamas officials on charges related to the conflict.

Former Ukrainian prisoners of war show signs of trauma
Many Ukrainian prisoners of war return with physical and psychological wounds after enduring torture from their Russian captors. Once back in Ukraine, they are often improperly treated and returned to duty too early , according to former prisoners, officials and psychologists familiar with individual cases.
Russia’s torture of prisoners of war has been well documented by the U.N. , with former inmates speaking of relentless beatings, electric shocks, rape, sexual violence and mock executions. One expert described the torture as systematic.
More than 10,000 Ukrainian prisoners of war remain in Russian custody, and nearly 3,000 have been released from Russia in prisoner exchanges since the invasion began. Most of the released prisoners return to active duty after about three months of rest and rehabilitation. Critics say they need more rest, but the Ukrainian military, short of troops on the front line, has given relatively few medical exemptions to former prisoners of war.
Suspected spies for China are appearing in Europe
Six people in three separate cases were charged last week in Europe with spying for China — two in Britain and four in Germany. The espionage cases, the first of their kind in two countries that once cultivated warm relations with Beijing, served as exclamation points in Europe’s long, often anguished breakup with China.
China experts said that the arrests indicated that European countries were toughening their response to Beijing’s meddling . China’s foreign ministry dismissed the charges as groundless.
