Palestinians in Chile push back over new president's pivot toward Israel

Palestinians in Chile are pushing back against President Jose Antonio Kast's pivot toward Israel, reversing the previous government's solidarity with Palestine. Kast, who took office in December, has authorized Israeli military participation in an aerospace fair and plans to return Chile's ambassador to Israel, despite the ongoing conflict in Gaza. This shift contrasts sharply with former President Gabriel Boric's policies, which included recalling the ambassador and supporting UN resolutions against Israel.

Israel is fighting on four fronts and has killed everyone who could end it - comment

Following Israeli airstrikes on Hezbollah's Beirut headquarters in response to rocket fire, Israel now faces four direct fronts: Iran, Lebanon, Yemen, and maritime chokepoints, a reduction from seven proxy-involved theaters. This phase is considered more dangerous as key figures like Iran's Ali Khamenei and Hezbollah's Hassan Nasrallah have been killed, removing potential signatories for a ceasefire and leaving leaders boxed in to prolong the conflict.
