Trump envoy calls Gaza rebuilding timeline in Israel-Hamas truce 'preposterous'
President Donald Trump's Middle East envoy said Tuesday that a three to five year timeline for reconstruction of Gaza, as set out in a temporary truce agreement, is not viable as the U.S. administration reiterated its call for Arab nations to temporarily relocate displaced Palestinians in the war-torn territory. “To me, it is unfair to explain to Palestinians that they might be back in five years,” Trump's envoy Steve Witkoff told reporters. The renewed call by the Trump administration on Arab nations to relocate displaced Palestinians comes as Trump is set to meet with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the White House later Tuesday.

UN warns maternal deaths in Afghanistan may rise after US funding pause
GENEVA (Reuters) -A U.N. aid official said on Tuesday that a U.S. funding pause would cut off millions of Afghans from sexual and reproductive health services, and the continued absence of this support could cause over 1,000 maternal deaths in Afghanistan from 2025 to 2028. U.S. President Donald Trump last month ordered a 90-day pause in foreign development assistance, pending assessment of efficiencies and consistency with his foreign policy, setting alarm bells ringing among aid groups around the world that depend on U.S. largesse. Trump has also restored U.S. participation in international anti-abortion pacts, cutting off U.S. family planning funds for foreign organisations providing or promoting abortion.
