The US is looking to Oman to broker new Iran nuclear talks: Report

The United States (U.S.) officials have spoken with Omani counterparts to look into the potential of resuming mediated nuclear negotiations between Washington and Tehran. According to a report, Israeli officials have accused the officials of wanting a temporary agreement that would permit the Islamic Republic of Iran to keep enriching uranium.

Teenagers from ISIS families receiving treatment at the Al Hol camp in Syria

Numerous youngsters have been living in a camp in northeastern Syria for at least four years, raising their families among ISIS fighters while being exposed to the violent ideology of the organization and having little to no possibility of receiving an education. The Kurdish officials who rule eastern and northern Syria are experimenting with a rehabilitation program aimed at removing youngsters from extremist ideas out of fear that a new generation of militants may emerge from Al Hol camp. It entails separating kids from their family for an unforeseen amount of time, a practice human rights organizations have expressed concern over. Even if they are found to be rehabilitated, their future is uncertain because their home nations are hesitant to accept them.

Islamic-Christian Committee cautions that Israel's treatment of Al-Aqsa threatens its commitment to Islam

The Islamic-Christian Committee in Support of Jerusalem and its Sanctuaries issued a warning Wednesday that the Al-Aqsa Mosque might lose its Islamic identity as a result of the latest Israeli judaization efforts. The committee said in a statement that the actions were "unprecedented" and that they "pose an existential threat to Al-Aqsa Mosque and its Islamic identity." The committee reaffirmed the Israeli occupation's "qualitative move towards the violation of the legal and historical status quo, as well as to forcibly create a new Jewish reality." It claimed that Israel was "to give the Israeli occupation forces permission to facilitate settler raids on Al-Aqsa Mosque and allow large numbers to desecrate it and perform Talmudic rituals." Up to 200 fanatical Jewish settlers have invaded the Al-Aqsa Mosque since the early hours of the morning, heavily guarded by Israeli occupation police.
