A 20-point plan that the White House has proposed that would put an end to Israel’s ongoing conflict with Gaza, which has resulted in the deaths of more than 66, 000 Palestinians and destroyed the Palestinian enclave, has been unveiled by the White House.
If both sides agree on a plan, the conflict will end right away, with all Palestinian prisoners in Gaza who are alive and dead returning within 72 hours. Israel won’t annex Gaza, and the Palestinian technocratic government will temporarily rule the region with no role for Hamas.
Netanyahu, the prime minister of Israel, has accepted Trump’s plans, but Mahmoud Mardawi, a Hamas official, claimed the group has not yet received his written version of the Gaza peace plan.
On Monday, the man charged with killing right-wing political activist Charlie Kirk appeared in court in the US and requested more time to examine the extensive evidence.
This month, Kirk was shot dead on a Utah campus, causing conservatives to express grief and have President Donald Trump threaten to crack down on the “radical left.”
The following day, Tyler Robinson, 22, was detained. If found guilty of aggravated murder, he could receive the death penalty.
Robinson was physically present for the hearing on Monday at the jail in Utah.
The state appointed lawyer Kathryn Nester to defend Robinson last week, and the judge requested more time to review the “voluminous” evidence that the investigation has produced.
According to what I understand from our meeting today, there will be a lot of digital (evidence) coming, she said.

The next hearing, scheduled for October 30 and scheduled for Robinson’s personal appearance, was scheduled by Judge Tony Graf.
We must carry out our duties with integrity, civility, and diligence, he said, regardless of who is watching, whether it is the entire nation or just one person.
The fair and impartial administration of justice is what neither Mr. Robinson nor the Utahn people deserve.
Kirk’s views allegedly led to Robinson shooting him from a rooftop across Utah Valley University’s campus.
They cited text messages exchanges between his roommate, who they described as a “biological male who was transitioning genders.”
The roommate, who was unnamed, inquired to Robinson about Kirk’s death during one exchange.
Robinson is alleged to have written that “I had enough of his hatred.” Some hate cannot be negotiated out, he says.
Kirk, a father of two, used his audiences on TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube to bolster conservative viewpoints, including the transgender rights movement’s staunch opposition.
A number of people have lost their jobs following the murder after conservatives criticised what people posted or said about Kirk in public.
She might have walked into the villa hand-in-hand with a glass of Prosecco, but Megan Forte Clarke was never destined to fade into the background. The 24-year-old from Dublin, now living in Brighton, was one of the standout personalities on the 2024 series of Love Island.
Megan quickly grew popular as a divisive figure as she navigated the highs and lows of villa life, gaining a quick wit, theatre-kid charm, and fearless honesty from her peers.
After a whirlwind first stint that ended in a shock dumping, Megan’s dramatic return later in the series gave fans some of the most memorable moments of the season. Whether she was offering unfiltered advice to the girls or sparking an instant connection with Conor, her presence was never forgotten.
Megan has since permanently shifted from the villa’s daybeds to TikTok dances, brand-building excursions, and other realities of developing relationships away from the camera.
Speaking exclusively, Megan opens up about life after Love Island, the misconceptions she wants to clear up, and why she and Conor are thriving in the real world.

Since leaving the villa, Megan admits life has been a whirlwind. “It is crazy. It’s literally like so hectic but so fun. I’m having a ball,” she says, reflecting on how quickly things changed once the cameras stopped rolling.
Looking back on her villa entrance, Megan recalls being thrown in at the deep end. “I didn’t know what to expect whatsoever going in. You walk in and it’s like Barbie’s dream house because everything is exactly what you’ve seen on telly.
Because all the girls were already there, Helen and I were the only ones who entered the room. But everything was fine once I sat down to drink a bottle of Prosecco.
Megan’s Love Island journey was unusual in that she appeared twice. After being dumped early on, she made a shock return later in the series. The difference, she says, was striking.
The villa’s routine was the same, but the atmosphere was completely different. Everyone was still figuring out their feet, and the initial energy was high. Everyone was extremely couple-y and chilled out when we returned later. It resembled an all-inclusive couples’ vacation, which was actually really nice.
Megan also found herself stepping into a bit of a mentor role. “When it came to Meg and Helena, obviously the boys had been being the boys. I was kind of doing it from a friend’s perspective. I don’t know if I was necessarily a fairy godmother, but I tried my best.”
Her villa stay was a source of controversy. Some viewers accused her of being a “maed girls”divide, which she now insists is untrue.
Oh no, the mean girls’ behavior is unacceptable. Everyone can have their funny little moments in that setting. However, Ali and I frequently traveled to Switzerland.
“I think I received a backlash because some perceived me picking sides, but I made friends with everyone there.” That is nice of me, which I am aware of.
Megan is thoughtful when questioned about whether she would come back to alter public opinion. “Yes and no,” I didn’t leave the first time with the best terms, but I don’t believe I changed anything about how I acted when I did.
I simply avoided watching drama that I hadn’t been watching. It was best to keep my two pence out because I know much more about what actually happens in the villa than what is shown on television.
Of course, Megan’s most exciting romance with Conor is her main focus when she’s not at home. After her return, the two instantly fell in love and haven’t looked back.
She claims, “It’s actually so much nicer coming out of the villa.” We can only do routine tasks together, despite how busy life is right now. Because it’s wild there, it’s developing so much more quickly. Instead of spending hours on our daybeds, we can now simply pop to the shops together.
Surprisingly, the couple hasn’t encountered any significant roadblocks yet. There are still no challenges ahead for us. The only difference is that Brighton and Ireland are both on the same route. Funny how I spend a week in his room before seeing him in my girly room. However, it’s great that we’re flying, in addition to that.
Moving in together is undoubtedly on the cards, according to Megan, but not yet. We want to move in, but we’ve kept it in our heads because so much is happening. However, there is definitely more to come.
children, too? She laughs, “Of course, there’s a little baby Megan-Conors running around dancing soon, but wait! “
Hugo Ekitike, the Liverpool forward, claims Alexander Isak’s arrival at Anfield will help him develop as a player.
Ekitike, 23, made a strong start for the Premier League champions, scoring five goals in his first ten starts for the club, which cost £69 million in the summer.
However, throughout the entire transfer window, Liverpool pursued Isak before finally signing him for £125 million.
With the two forwards not having played together, how manager Arne Slot might use both of them in his team has been much discussed.
Ekitike praised the players in such a large club as “I think it’s good.” It’s good that he’s here because “I can’t see one big club playing with just one striker.”
I believe I still have a lot to learn and improve, so it’s good that he’s here, even for me at my age.
The coach can choose how he wants to play, as stated in the statement, “As for if we can play together,” Not me, that’s.
“But it’s obvious that it’s a great team.” I’ve been playing one striker and two-striker composition, which enables me to do a lot. I can play if we need to play together.
In the Carabao Cup last week, Ekitike replaced Isak at half-time against Southampton, scoring both strikers.
The France international scored a late winner after being booked earlier but receiving a red card.
Ekitike responded, “I think that wasn’t smart.” I’d say that I was entirely responsible for my own actions.
“I was a little let down last Saturday watching the boys from home, but I already apologize to everyone on Instagram and to my team-mates.
Myleene Klass was allegedly sent items with “sexual overtones” including a Catwoman outfit that left her fearing for her safety, a court heard. The TV star and singer, 47, was allegedly sent a note calling her a “naughty vixen”.
Peter Windsor, 61, denied stalking Myleene when he testified in court today. Additionally, he refrained from making a second allegation that he was stalking her coworker, Katie Breathwick, a presenter on Classic FM.
It has been alleged Windsor caused both women “serious alarm or distress” by sending items through the post. He allegedly sent letters to Katie’s workplace that included a pair of binoculars, running trainers, a bottle of Champagne and a stamp collection between March 2020 and December 2023.
Between November 2023 and August 2024, Windsor is alleged to have allegedly sent Myleene unwanted letters, fashionable clothing, shoes, and jewelry. On Monday, a jury of ten men and two women took the oath of office at Birmingham Crown Court.
Judge Tom Rochford instructed them not to conduct their own online research into any details about the “well-known” complainants. During the trial, the judge indicated that psychiatrists would give evidence.
He claimed in court that the defendant claimed that he was insane at the time, and that there might be a not-guilty verdict based on his insaneness. It caused her distress, according to Timothy Sapwell, the prosecutor’s attorney.
Due to the defendant’s obsessive interest in her, she was concerned about what the defendant might do to her or her family. Mr. Sapwell said when he opened the case that “the defendant became obsessed with those two presenters, and what he did was send them numerous letters and packages.”
The content was peculiar, and the letters and parcels were a lot. He had some sexual overtones, and it showed that he was obsessed with them.
Things like a police outfit and a catwoman outfit are among the items that were sent. According to the court, “He told the court,” those two women were distressed and alarmed, adding that they were concerned about going to work.
Mr. Sapwell claimed schizophrenia is present at the court. The court was informed that Myleene’s management, rather than her, would sort through her fan mail, but they did so in August of last year when they informed the presenter about safety concerns.
After a number of items arrived and were reported to the police, they expressed concern. Prior to Myleene receiving the air pistol and a note calling her a “naughty vixen,” officers intercepted another package that allegedly contained a note inviting her to correct the defendant with a cane.
Windsor was detained at his Birmingham home. According to what the court heard, they allegedly found binoculars, black leather gloves, and maps of London. After seeing a picture of her in a newspaper, Mr. Sapwell joked that Windsor had sent items to Myleene Klass, including a silver ring, a necklace, and a heart-shaped pendant.
He claimed that he believed the police had contacted him because he had been a victim of financial exploitation because of the cost of living in London, according to Mr. Sapwell. She objected to any publicity surrounding this. She merely desired that it end.
The trial is continuing, with Windsor denying two counts of stalking.
