🌍 President Joe Biden signed an executive order Thursday to sanction four Israeli settlers involved in attacks against Palestinians in the West Bank, according to the State Department. The sanctions will prohibit them from accessing the U.S. financial system and property in the U.S. and will block them from receiving financial transactions from U.S. citizens. The news comes as the possibility of a "full-fledged famine" looms large across the entire Gaza Strip, humanitarian groups have warned. Meanwhile, a Qatari official told ABC News that Hamas has received a new proposed hostage deal but has not yet responded.
🏛️ Defense Sec. Lloyd Austin, facing reporters' questions for the first time since his secret hospitalization, said on Thursday that his cancer diagnosis was a "gut punch" and that his first instinct was to keep it private, admitting that he "did not handle this right."
