UN fires 9 UNRWA staffers after probe found they may have been involved in Oct. 7 attack

The US is preparing to beef up its military presence in the Middle East and defend Israel from any expected counter strike. According to the Pentagon, the US is moving *** fighter jet squadron and an aircraft carrier to the Middle East and sending more defense cruisers and land based missile weapons near Europe. As well as reported, Houthi rebels, *** terrorist group with ties to Iran have launched attacks on container ships in the Gulf of Aden. At the same time, the White House National Security Council says it's working to de escalate those tensions by moving conversations on *** ceasefire deal along while Israel claims it's already in *** regional war, sending *** message to allies including the US that it plans to continue its military offensive in Gaza. While simultaneously, we are working very hard to de escalate the situation diplomatic because we do not believe that *** regional war is in anyone's interest in the current moment. There can always be disagreements amongst friends, but the most important thing and I think the most important message to America is that we're not fighting this war just for ourselves. We're fighting this war for the free world. President Biden and is expected to meet with his national security team later on this afternoon to discuss the latest happening in the Middle East in Washington. I'm Amy Lo.
