Israel-Hamas ceasefire deal finalised? Netanyahu denies claim as war enters 'next stage'
The Washington Post was vehemently denied by both Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and US officials. The hostage release could begin within the next several days, barring last-minute hitches, according to people familiar with the detailed, six-page agreement, the paper said on Saturday. The debated mention of the ceasefire agreement comes even as Israel seemingly increases their aggressiveness in the ground offensive against Hamas militants to southern Gaza after air strikes killed dozens of Palestinians, including civilians reported to be sheltering at two schools.

Alibaba Scraps Cloud Unit Spinoff, Citing Washington’s Chip Curbs

The restrictions “may materially and adversely affect" the cloud business’s ability to offer products and services and to perform under existing contracts, Alibaba said, adding that it would focus on the division’s growth.
