As Netanyahu stressed on U.S. television last week, "there'll be no ceasefire, general ceasefire, in Gaza without the release of our hostages.” Read the full story here: https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/will-there-be-ceasefire-in-gaza-strip Check out our website: https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/

Rep. Abigail Spanberger (D-VA) will not run for reelection next year but will instead launch a bid to replace Gov. Glenn Youngkin (R-VA) in the governor's mansion, the House Democrat announced on Monday.
