Israel abatió a un terrorista de Hamas que participó en la masacre del 7 de octubre
El ejército israelí (FDI) anunció el domingo la eliminación de Louay Hisham Mahmoud Basal, un francotirador de Hamas que según los servicios de inteligencia israelíes participó en la infiltración a la base militar de Zikim durante la masacre del 7 de octubre de 2023 y operaba recientemente para ejecutar ataques contra soldados israelíes.
Basal pertenecía al Batallón Zeitoun de la Brigada de la Ciudad de Gaza de Hamas. El ejército israelí indicó que representaba “una amenaza inmediata” para sus tropas y fue neutralizado en un “ataque de precisión” ejecutado el viernes. Según el comunicado, antes del ataque se tomaron medidas para reducir el riesgo de bajas civiles, incluido el uso de munición de precisión y vigilancia aérea.
La base de Zikim, ubicada en el sur de Israel cerca de la frontera con Gaza, fue uno de los blancos de los comandos de Hamas durante el ataque del 7 de octubre, en el que murieron unas 1.200 personas y otras 251 fueron tomadas como rehenes. Las FDI indicaron que sus tropas bajo el Mando Sur continúan desplegadas conforme al acuerdo de alto el fuego vigente y seguirán operando para neutralizar cualquier amenaza inmediata.
El anuncio militar se produjo en un domingo marcado por nuevas víctimas civiles en la Franja de Gaza. Un ataque israelí con aviones de combate contra un bloque de viviendas en el campo de refugiados de Nuseirat, en el centro de la Franja, mató durante la madrugada a una pareja y su bebé de cinco meses. Los fallecidos fueron identificados como Ibrahim Abu Malouh, de 38 años; su esposa, Alaa, de 36 años; y su hijo Osama, según informaron fuentes del Hospital Al Aqsa a la agencia EFE.
Al mediodía, un francotirador israelí mató a Samih Ibrahim Darduna, de 25 años, en el campo de refugiados de Yabalia, al norte de la Franja, según fuentes del hospital Al Shifa. Su cuerpo fue hallado cerca de una clínica de la UNRWA en el campo. También se recuperó ese día el cuerpo de Hani Abdulá Ibrahim Shakshak, un niño de ocho años desaparecido el sábado tras un ataque israelí contra un puesto policial en Al Tawam, al norte de la Franja.
El sábado, Israel había matado a cinco agentes palestinos y un menor en un ataque con dron contra ese mismo puesto policial, según informaron la Media Luna Roja Palestina, el Ministerio de Interior gazatí y fuentes médicas del Hospital Al Shifa.
Desde el inicio de la ofensiva en octubre de 2023, el número de muertos en Gaza asciende a 72.783, en su mayoría mujeres y niños, según el Ministerio de Sanidad de Gaza, dependiente de la administración de Hamas.
Al menos 172.779 personas más han resultado heridas. La cifra está incompleta, ya que muchas víctimas permanecen bajo los escombros, inaccesibles para los equipos de rescate.
Desde que entró en vigor el alto el fuego el 10 de octubre de 2025, los muertos suman 895 y los heridos 2.677. Al menos 776 cuerpos han sido recuperados de entre los escombros.
Los episodios bélicos del domingo se enmarcaron en un contexto diplomático de alta tensión. El primer ministro israelí, Benjamin Netanyahu, afirmó en la red social X que acordó con el presidente estadounidense, Donald Trump, en una llamada del sábado por la noche, que cualquier acuerdo de paz con Irán implicará el “desmantelamiento de las instalaciones de enriquecimiento de uranio de Irán y la retirada de su material nuclear enriquecido del territorio”.
“Mi política, como la del presidente Trump, permanece invariable: Irán no tendrá armas nucleares”, concluyó Netanyahu.
Netanyahu también abordó con Trump el memorando de entendimiento para el desbloqueo del Estrecho de Ormuz y las próximas negociaciones hacia un acuerdo final sobre el programa nuclear iraní.
Trump, por su parte, publicó el domingo en Truth Social un mensaje en el que frenó las expectativas de un acuerdo inminente con Teherán. “He informado a mis representantes que no se apresuren a cerrar un trato, porque el tiempo está de nuestro lado”, escribió, confirmando que el bloqueo naval sobre los puertos iraníes continuará hasta que haya un pacto “certificado y firmado”.

A Democratic socialist running for governor in Wisconsin once called to «defund, then abolish,» the police.
Wisconsin state Rep. Francesca Hong, in a flurry of posts on social media, called for the end of policing in the wake of the slaying of George Floyd and the shooting of Jacob Blake, before and during her time as an elected official.
In one post made in August 2020, first reported by CNN, Hong said, «I support defunding the police as a first step towards abolishing the police.»
DEM HOUSE HOPEFUL EXPOSED AS FAR-LEFT ACTIVIST PUSHING TO ABOLISH POLICE WEEKS BEFORE SPECIAL ELECTION

«Jacob Blake is fighting for his life, but he shouldn’t have to be,» she said on X, then Twitter. «We must also fight for his life and get justice for all those harmed by state-sanctioned violence.»
Blake was shot seven times in Kenosha, Wis., after police responded to a domestic disturbance call. The incident left him partially paralyzed and sparked a wave of violent protests in 2020.
He had a pocket knife on him that fell from his pocket in the altercation, which he picked up before being shot.
Hong again weighed in on the issue, this time as an elected official in October 2021 in response to federal prosecutors’ decision to not file charges against Officer Rusten Sheskey, who shot Blake over a year prior.
BLM ACTIVIST LEADING RESISTANCE TO TRUMP’S DC CRIME PLAN REPEATEDLY CALLED FOR ABOLISHING POLICE
«How is 7 bullets in the back not excessive force,» Hong said online. «Police exist to uphold white supremacy. Defund then abolish. Reform can’t be an option. My heart breaks for the trauma the Blake family and their community continues to endure.»
In a statement to Fox News Digital, Hong appeared to backtrack from the posts, but didn’t say whether as governor she would move to defund and abolish the police.
«There is no way I want to cut resources for public safety,» Hong said. «I don’t like crime. I don’t like unsafe streets. I also don’t like when a member of law enforcement abuses their power.»
MANDELA BARNES JUMPS INTO WISCONSIN GOVERNOR RACE — BUT BAGGAGE FROM HIS 2022 SENATE BID FOLLOWS

«Everyone deserves the resources they need to be safe, including housing, good-paying jobs, mental health supports and community resources,» she continued. «As governor, I will look at every part of the state and work with local leaders to shape solutions that address our immediate needs.»
Hong, who is endorsed by Reps. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., and Ro Khanna, D-Calif., is one of several candidates in a crowded primary for the Democratic nomination in Wisconsin. Primary Election Day is still a ways away on Aug. 11, and Hong is locked in a tight battle with former Lieutenant Governor and 2022 Democratic nominee for Senate Mandela Barnes.
The winner of their primary will likely square off against Rep. Tom Tiffany, R-Wis., a member of the House Freedom Caucus and front-runner in his bid for the Republican nomination. Tiffany, in a statement to Fox News Digital, took a shot at both candidates.

«This is what today’s Democrat Party has become,» Tiffany said. «Whether it’s Francesca Hong doubling down on abolishing the police or Mandela Barnes calling to empty prisons while pushing to end cash bail, they are both far-left radicals who care more about protecting criminals than the innocent people harmed by their crimes.»
Tiffany’s campaign directed Fox News Digital to older posts from Barnes, too, where he pushed to «cut the prison population in half,» and legislation he introduced a decade ago to end cashless bail.
Fox News Digital reached out to Barnes’ campaign for comment but did not immediately hear back.

«Adiós»: el provocador mensaje de Trump contra Irán, en medio de las negociaciones de paz en Medio Oriente
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
While President Donald Trump was burning the midnight oil hammering out a last-minute peace and denuclearization deal with Iran, his White House inner circle was hammering the critics from the right for either working to «undermine» peace efforts or «illegally» abusing residual security clearance.
Former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, a Fox News contributor, and Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, received X criticism from some of Trump’s top inner circle advisors, including White House communications director Steven Cheung, deputy assistant on counterterror Sebastian Gorka and outside political advisor Alex Bruesewitz.
«Mike Pompeo has no idea what the f— he’s talking about,» Cheung wrote in a scathing X post Saturday night. «He should shut his stupid mouth and leave the real work to the professionals. He’s not read into anything that’s happening, so how would he know.»
The Pompeo post that drew the ire suggested an impending Trump deal would wind up being an Obama-era-esque capitulation to Iran’s ongoing nuclear weapons aspirations.
MORNING GLORY: PRESIDENT TRUMP MUST REJECT A SECOND MUNICH AND HOLD FIRM AGAIN IRAN

«The deal being floated with Iran seems straight out of the Wendy Sherman-Robert Malley-Ben Rhodes playbook: Pay the IRGC to build a WMD program and terrorize the world,» Pompeo wrote on X. «Not remotely America First.»
«It’s straightforward: Open the damned strait. Deny Iran access to money. Take out enough Iranian capability so it cannot threaten our allies in the region.
«Overdue. Let’s go.»
MIKE POMPEO: TRUMP’S IRAN STRIKES SHOW WORLD WHAT ‘AMERICA FIRST’ FOREIGN POLICY LOOKS LIKE
Gorka, while confirming nothing from Pompeo’s post, did suggest the former secretary of state might be «illegally» abusing his residual high security clearance.
«You have no knowledge of what is being negotiated in secret,» Gorka wrote on X. «If you did, you would be in possession of information illegally provided to you and which you are wholly unauthorized to have or to share.»
«So are you a liar or a criminal Pompeo?» Gorka asked.
WHY IRAN TALKS ARE IN LIMBO AS TRUMP SCRAMBLES FOR A WAY OUT OF THE WAR HE STARTED
Cruz also received blowback for a post suggesting Trump’s peace efforts would come up short because of releasing «billions of dollars» to the Iranian regime.
«I am deeply concerned about what we are hearing about an Iran ‘deal,’ being pushed by some voices in the administration,» Cruz wrote Saturday on X. «President Trump’s decision to strike Iran was the most consequential decision of his second term. He was right to do so, and we achieved extraordinary military results — including destroying all of their missiles & drones and sinking their entire navy.
«If the result of all that is to be an Iranian regime—still run by Islamists who chant «death to America» — now receiving billions of dollars, being able to enrich uranium & develop nuclear weapons, and having effective control over the Strait of Hormuz, then that outcome would be a disastrous mistake.
MORNING GLORY: TRUMP SHOULD DEMAND A CLEAR VICTORY OVER IRAN AND REJECT WEAK COMPROMISES
«The details are still coming out — and I pray the early reports are wrong — but the fact that Biden’s Rob Malley is praising the deal is not encouraging.
«President Trump believes in peace through strength, and his strong leadership has already made America much safer. He should continue to hold the line, defend America & enforce the red lines he has repeatedly drawn.»
That drew criticism from one of Trump’s outside political advisors in Bruesewitz.
ISRAEL-IRAN WAR DIVIDES DEMOCRATS, BUT TRUMP’S DIPLOMACY ALSO SPLITTING REPUBLICANS
«Cool, Ted,» Bruesewitz wrote on X, touching off a tit-for-tat exchange with Cruz. «No one asked you, bro.
«Stop trying to undermine the President and his administration.»
Cruz fired back, suggesting Trump’s inner circle might be pushing Obama-era «Iran appeasement.»
DAVID MARCUS: THE MAGA ‘CIVIL WAR’ OVER IRAN IS A MYTH
«Hush, child,» Cruz replied on X. «The adults are talking. I’m not your ‘bro.’ And young political grifters pushing Iran appeasement are not remotely helping the President.»

While there is some criticism of the Trump White House peace efforts, a noted Senate anti-war voice from the right came out to tell critics to let Trump cook.
«War virtually always ends with negotiations,» Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., wrote Sunday morning on X. «Critics of President Trump’s peace negotiations should give President Trump the space to find an American First solution.»
