nzz.ch/international/unrwa-expertenbericht-sieht-terrorverbindungen-als-nicht-ausreichend-belegt-an-ld.1827410
Quick Glance: UNRWA Report Highlights Lack of Evidence for Israel's Employee Militancy Claims
- An independent review commissioned by the United Nations found that Israel has not provided evidence to support its accusation that a 'significant' number of employees of the U.N. relief agency for Palestinian refugees in the Gaza Strip are members of terrorist organizations.
- The review, led by former French foreign minister Catherine Colonna, revealed that UNRWA 'plays an indispensable and irreplaceable role in the region,' despite issues such as employees expressing political views and offices being used for 'political or military purposes'.
- The review listed recommendations to enhance UNRWA operations, including improved training, more rigorous employee screening, and a thorough review of all textbooks and supplements.
- Concerns were raised regarding the screening of UNRWA employees and the content of textbooks, while Israel has yet to provide evidence to support the claim that a significant number of UNRWA employees are members of terrorist organizations.

Senate passes Ukraine aid, Israel funding and path to TikTok ban, sending bill to Biden's desk
nbcnews.com/politics/congress/senate-hold-key-test-vote-ukraine-aid-israel-funding-tiktok-ban-rcna148685
Quick Glance: Implications of a TikTok Ban on China's Technology Plans and Global Digital Divide
- TikTok is at a critical juncture in America as its Chinese owner must complete the sale of the app within a year to avoid a ban in its largest market.
- The potential TikTok ban would not only greatly weaken China's technology ambitions but also deepen the divide between the digital worlds of rival economic superpowers.
- The potential enforcement of a TikTok ban could expedite a transformation that divides the world's technological landscape into two factions, one around the US and the other around technologies from China.
- Chinese companies and apps operating in the US are encountering increasing challenges as the US government implements measures to restrict the access of Chinese companies to the market.

Iran oil exports hit 6-year high as west prepares sanctions: Surge in crude sales to China exposes limits of US and EU attempts to rein in Islamic republic
ft.com/content/00bb5653-e9aa-4af1-8f9e-705137947b32
Quick Glance: Iran's Oil Exports Thrive Amid Rising Tensions
- Iran is exporting more oil than in the past six years, providing the economy with a $35 billion annual boost, as western countries consider tightening sanctions in response to the attack on Israel.
- The US and the EU are preparing new sanctions on the Islamic republic to deter conflict escalation with Israel, facing challenges due to Iran's successful circumvention of sanctions, especially with China being its primary customer.
- Iran has found ways to bypass sanctions, shielded from western pressure as its main oil exports go to China. Tensions have escalated since the Hamas attack on Israel, driving oil prices up by over 15%, while US efforts to sanction individual tankers carrying Iranian oil have had minimal impact so far.
- Mounting Republican pressure urges the Biden administration to take tougher action on Iran's oil sales, with criticism over perceived leniency on existing measures. Despite US strategic oil reserves being released to stabilize prices, concerns remain over the administration's stance on enforcing sanctions similar to the previous Trump administration.

reuters.com/world/middle-east/turkeys-erdogan-says-he-does-not-believe-hamas-will-leave-qatar-2024-04-23/
Quick Glance: Turkey Should Not Provide Sanctuary to Hamas
- The images of the meeting between the Turkish President and the Hamas leader in Istanbul are causing unease. Supporting the terrorist organization is problematic. The Islamists are no longer suitable as negotiating partners for resolving the Middle East conflict.
- Recep Tayyip Erdogan received Hamas leader Ismail Haniya with a certain statesmanship and drew parallels between Hamas and Turkish insurgents. Turkey adamantly refuses to categorize Hamas as a terrorist organization.
- Speculations are arising about a potential relocation of Hamas leaders from Qatar to Turkey. Qatar is under pressure due to its closeness to Islamists. Turkey could be an appealing choice for Hamas.
- Moving the Hamas headquarters to Turkey would be a provocation towards Israel and its allies. Hamas has discredited itself as a reliable negotiating partner. A political resolution of the Middle East conflict should exclude the involvement of Hamas.

Quick Glance: Google terminates 28 employees after office occupation due to anti-Israel protests
- Google terminated 28 employees on Thursday who had occupied its offices to protest against contracts with the Israeli government, as confirmed by a Google spokesperson.
- The protesters were arrested and after refusing to leave the office of Google Cloud CEO Thomas Kurian in Sunnyvale or the workspace in New York City for nearly 10 hours, they were transferred to administrative positions to urge Google to terminate the Project Nimbus contract and cease business with the Israeli government.
- No Tech For Apartheid, a project by Jewish Voice for Peace and Linda Sarsour’s MPower Change, described the terminations as an "indiscriminate act of mass retaliation."
- The office occupations at Google were accompanied by demonstrations on-site and in Seattle, aiming to compel Google to withdraw from the project to establish cloud-based data centers and transition a significant portion of the Israeli government's IT infrastructure to cloud-based servers.

- Israeli strikes on the southern Gaza city of Rafah overnight killed 22 people, including 18 children, as the US House of Representatives approved $13 billion in new Israeli military aid.
- However, fears of wider war breaking out in the Middle East have eased somewhat after Iran downplayed Israel’s reported retaliation over its unprecedented missile and drone attack on the country a week ago.
- Israel has carried out near-daily air raids on Rafah and vowed to expand its ground offensive against the Hamas militant group to the city on the border with Egypt despite calls for restraint, including from the US.
- Tensions have also spiked in the Israeli-occupied West Bank, with Israeli troops killing two Palestinians who attacked a checkpoint with a knife and a gun near the southern West Bank town of Hebron.
