About this sermon
Israeli forces have launched one of its largest military operations in the West Bank, killing at least 10 Hamas militants in the process. The Hamas-run Gaza health ministry says the Israelis blocked the roads leading to a hospital with dirt barriers and surrounded other medical facilities. An Israeli military spokesman says this was to ensure militants did not seek shelter in hospitals. Israel says it is rooting out militants in the West Bank while Palestinians claim it’s an excuse to broaden the war. This comes one day after the Israelis pulled off a complex hostage rescue operation in Gaza. The hostage was released from the hospital today. Former Israeli-Hamas Peace Negotiator, Gershon Baskin, joins to tell us about this military operation that Israel is calling a counter-terrorism operation. Low-level ceasefire negotiations took place in Doha today. Baskin shares whether we know if anything of substance transpired there and whether he thinks negotiators will be able to strike a deal in light of recent activities. The US has moved more warships and aircraft carriers in and around the Middle East as a show of force to Iran. Gershon discusses whether he thinks this will act a deterrent to Tehran. ------------ EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
