Lebanon’s Hezbollah launched over 50 rockets on Wednesday, hitting a number of private homes in the Israeli-annexed Golan Heights. Hezbollah said Wednesday's attack was in response to an Israeli strike deep into Lebanon on Tuesday night. Diplomatic efforts to secure a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas have doubled as fears grow of a wider regional war following the targeted killings of Hamas and Hezbollah leaders in Iran and Lebanon. Shortly before the attack, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken met with fellow mediators from Egypt and Qatar in order to secure a ceasefire deal. Blinken sugge...

US Secretary of State Antony Blinken has arrived in Tel Aviv to try to seal a ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas after more than 10 months of war. Blinken's arrival happened after US and fellow mediators Egypt and Qatar said they were closing in on a deal after two days of talks in Doha, with American and Israeli officials expressing cautious optimism. But Hamas, which didn't participate directly in the talks, has signalled resistance to what it calls new demands by Israel. The evolving proposal calls for a three-phase process in which Hamas would release all hostages abducted during its ...

After discovering the child's symptoms, tests were conducted in Jordan's capital Amman and the case was confirmed to be polio, health officials said. It's the first case of the disease in years to be reported in the coastal enclave that has been devastated by the Israel-Hamas war since last October. The potentially fatal, paralysing disease mostly strikes children under the age of five and typically spreads through contaminated water. Pakistan and Afghani...

Australian-British pianist Jayson Gillham was supposed to be on stage tonight. However, the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra (MSO) sanctioned him for dedicating a performance to the Palestinian journalists killed in Gaza - a move which led the Media, Entertainment and Arts Alliance (MEAA) to express concerns over freedom of speech. Following its controversial decision to cancel future performances by Gillham, the MSO is now seeking to dodge the controversy it created by backtracking and admitting it made a mistake. “The MSO acknowledges that an error was made in asking Jayson Gillham to step back ...

More than more than 40,000 Palestinians have been killed since Israel began its offensive in Gaza, the strip's Health Ministry said on Thursday. Another 92,401 people have also been wounded, and 85% of the Palestinian population has been displaced, according to its count.

The Israeli military said around 15,000 Hamas fighters were among those killed in Gaza but has not provided evidence to back the claim. However, Gazan health officials also said they had struggled to fully identify the dead owing to...

At the concert at the Iwaki Auditorium on Sunday, Gillham, 37, performed a range of works, from Beethoven to Chopin. He also played 'Witness', written by Australian composer Connor D'Netto, which the MSO says was a last-minute addition. The piece was dedicated to “Palestinian journalists killed in Gaza.” "Over the last 10 months, Israel has killed more than 100 Palestinian journalists," Gillham said before starting the pi...

The World Health Organization (WHO) is preparing a mass polio immunisation campaign for 500,000 children in Gaza, after the virus that causes the highly contagious disease was detected in wastewater samples around displacement camps last month. The shots come from global stockpiles, and while WHO Director-General Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus has already signed off on their use, they’re sitting in storage in Indonesia because the WHO is facing major barriers to launch the effort, officials said during a press briefing on Wednesday. That includes transportation issues, uncertainty around cold-c...
