Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez on Monday ratcheted up his criticism of Israel's actions in the 23-month Israel-Hamas war, to which Israel responded by banning two left-wing Spanish ministers from the country.

A drone fired by Yemen's Houthi rebels breached Israel's multilayered air defenses on Sunday and slammed into the country's southern airport, the Israeli military said, blowing out glass windows, wounding one person and briefly shutting down commercial airspace.
The damage to Ramon Airport appeared limited and flights resumed within hours. The Houthis claimed responsibility for the strike.

U.S. President Donald Trump said Sunday he was issuing a "last warning" to Hamas, saying the Palestinian militant group must accept a deal to release hostages in Gaza.
"The Israelis have accepted my terms. It is time for Hamas to accept as well. I have warned Hamas about the consequences of not accepting. This is my last warning," Trump said on social media, without elaborating further.

Israel's defense minister told Hamas on Monday to lay down its arms or face annihilation, after U.S. President Donald Trump said the militant group must accept a deal to release hostages in Gaza.
The warnings came as the Israeli military intensified its bombings and operations around Gaza City, which it has vowed to capture in a bid to finally defeat Hamas after nearly two years of devastating conflict.

Palestinian attackers opened fire at a bus stop during the morning rush hour in Jerusalem on Monday, killing six people and wounding another 12, according to Israeli officials.

The Israeli army said two projectiles were launched Sunday from the Gaza Strip, with Palestinian militant group Islamic Jihad claiming responsibility for the rocket fire, which caused no casualties or damage.

An Israeli strike flattened a high-rise in Gaza City on Saturday -- the second in as many days -- after the military warned people to move to a "humanitarian zone" ahead of a planned offensive against the urban hub.

The Arab League has said that peaceful coexistence in the Middle East cannot be achieved without a Palestinian state and an end to what it described as Israel's "hostile practices".

The Israeli army told Gaza City residents to flee to a "humanitarian zone" in the south on Saturday ahead of a planned offensive to capture the territory's largest urban center.

The Palestinian health ministry said Israeli forces shot dead a 57-year-old man near a checkpoint in the occupied West Bank on Friday, while the military said it had "eliminated the terrorist".
