The day's dominant editorial story was Hamas's reported move to dissolve its government in Gaza, with multiple outlets citing imminent meetings in Cairo and a handover to a technocratic committee. This political shift was framed against a backdrop of continued violence: airstrikes killed several in Gaza City and near a water station, while a Palestinian infant died after Israeli forces blocked evacuation in the West Bank. Earlier, editors had focused on the health system's collapse and the feared silent assassination of Dr. Abu Safiya, but by evening the government dissolution dominated. Netanyahu conditioned reconstruction on disarmament, and settler attacks escalated in Nablus and Jerusalem. The UAE's acquisition of Iron Dome and a reported Hamas-Trump advisor meeting in Qatar added diplomatic dimensions.
