Who fault is that I take Hamas for 1,000
Israel 'praying' medicines will reach hostages, Herzog says
Israel is “praying” an emergency shipment of medicine brought to the Gaza border through Egypt will reach hostages held by Hamas in the besieged Palestinian enclave, Israeli President Isaac Herzog said at the World Economic Forum in Davos.
Herzog, whose role is largely ceremonial, also repeated his government's stand that Hamas should not be able to rule and function as a military force in the Gaza Strip after the war. The group is listed as a terrorist organization by the EU, Germany and others.
While saying he was not shying away from the "human tragedy" inflicted on Gaza civilians, Herzog cast the Israeli offensive as a step towards more peaceful relations with the Palestinians in the future, and as bolstering global security.
Herzog called on world powers to help in Gaza once the war has concluded, and said that before the Hamas attack, Israel had been on a path to establishing relations with Saudi Arabia after doing so in 2020 with Gulf neighbors United Arab Emirates and Bahrain.
Maersk says Red Sea disruption and weather cause congestion
Weather disruptions at ports in northern Europe and ships being diverted from the Red Sea are causing container terminal congestion, shipping company A.P. Moller-Maersk said.
Maersk and other shipping groups have diverted vessels away from the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden following attacks by Yemen's Houthis, sending them on a long journey around Africa rather than through the Suez Canal shortcut.
In northern Europe, winter storms and the effects of the recent holiday season have led to terminal closures and navigation stoppages, the company said.
The company encouraged customers to prepare for continued complications in the area and for and significant disruptions to the global network.
Maersk said it also offers customers the option to shift some cargo from vessels to air freight at ports in Oman and the United Arab Emirates to fly goods to final destinations in Europe or the United States.
