As fragile Israel-Hezbollah ceasefire takes hold, what’s next for Gaza?

Although fighting between Israel and Hezbollah, located in Lebanon, may seem to be coming to a conclusion, it is unclear how the ceasefire would affect Palestinians who are eager for the conflict in Gaza to finish or the distraught relatives of captives who are waiting for their loved ones to return. When Israel accomplishes its goals of returning the hostages held by Hamas and making sure the militant group no longer controls the territory, it will conclude the conflict in Gaza, Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saarsaid during a visit to the Czech Republic on Thursday. Saar stated that it is now exceedingly difficult to find a Palestinian partner for peace, but he went on to say that we think peace will eventually come. In the meantime, Hamas has expressed hope that any agreement with Hezb...

Dolphins turned their season around, but now they face the team they’re trying to be

The Miami Dolphins appeared lifeless in the water a month ago. The squad was 2-6 and appeared to be closer to the No. 1 overall choice than the playoffs, even after quarterback Tua Tagovailoa returned from a concussion in Week 2 that kept him out of four games. Since then, Tagovailoa and the Dolphins have been on fire, winning three in a row and falling just 1 1/2 games short of the AFC's final postseason berth. Additionally, Tagovailoa has played some of his best football in the five weeks since his comeback, recording a 76.5% completion percentage, 11 touchdowns, one interception, and a passer rating of 116.2. Miami now resembles the squad that qualified for the playoffs the previous two seasons despite its flaws. However, none of the Dolphins' five wins this season have come against a c...
