The World Forum - November 5th, 2025

  As I have mentioned a short while ago, IFP is under attack from Disqus. The Admin Team at Disqus is now monitoring this site and routinely deleting comments they find "offensive". It really has nothing to with ToS, we are being targetted. I have built a back-up site to IFP and have the commenting engine already lined up. To implement the new commenting engine into the new site, I will require a "business account" with the platform that would host the new site. The commenting engine is robust, works great, and offers multiple login options (including your existing Disqus, Facebook, Twitter (X), and other Social Media logins. The cost to purchase the business plan for 1 year is approximately $450. Once we have raised $450, I will initiate the transfer of IFP to the new site.

Al-Shifa: What we know about Israel's raid on Gaza's main hospital

BBC News

The Israeli military has raided Gaza's main hospital in what it describes as a "targeted operation against Hamas".

An eyewitness at Al-Shifa hospital told the BBC that troops moved in overnight and were interrogating people.

On Wednesday, Israel said it found Hamas' "operational centre" at the hospital, sharing images of what it said were Hamas weapons and equipment.

Hamas denies operating there and the BBC cannot independently verify claims by either side.

UN humanitarian chief Martin Griffiths said he was "appalled" by the Israeli raid, while the World Health Organization (WHO) said it was "extremely worried" for patients and staff, with whom it had lost contact.

On Wednesday evening, the IDF said troops found "an operational command centre, weapons, and technological assets" belonging to Hamas inside the MRI building.

It said it was "continuing to operate in the hospital complex", sharing images and videos showing what it said were Hamas weapons.

In a seven-minute video, IDF spokesperson Jonathan Conricus pointed to security cameras that he said had been covered over, and weapons that he said were AK47 rifles hidden behind MRI scanners.
