Israel’s military has concluded six Hamas members were killed in a strike on Nasser hospital in the south of the Gaza Strip on Monday (August 25, 2025), acting U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Dorothy Shea told the Security Council on Wednesday (August 27, 2025).

The Israeli strike killed at least 20 people, including journalists who worked for Reuters, the Associated Press, Al Jazeera and other outlets.

“The IDF concluded six Hamas members – one of whom had participated in the October 7th attacks – were killed when the IDF struck the site Hamas was using to monitor troops at the hospital,” Mr. Shea said.

“We note the prompt nature of this investigation and response and call on this council to condemn the continued use of civilian infrastructure by Hamas,” she said. Danon Israel’s U.N. Ambassador Danny Danon told reporters before the council meeting on Wednesday (August 27, 2025): “We’re still looking into the details of that incident, and so that in the next few days we will have more information about that.”

“Our goal is to fight terrorists, not journalists, not anyone who is not involved in terrorism,” he said.

Mr Garcetti at Delhi’s CR Park.

US Ambassador to India Eric Garcetti celebrated Durga Pooja with enthusiasm and vigour. He recently visited a pandal at Delhi’s Chittaranjan Park and enjoyed the Bengali street food and customs. Mr Garcetti also performed Dhunuchi Naach, which is referred to as a dance dedicated towards Goddess Durga. The US Envoy took to X, formerly Twitter, to share a video of his “incredible time”. 

Mr Garcetti was given a warm and traditional Bengali welcome, as seen in the clip. He performs the ‘aarti’ and then goes on to dance with the people at the pandal. Further, the US Envoy performs Dhunuchi Naach, an integral part of Durga Pooja, with an earthen pot in his mouth. He then goes on to meet children performing on the stage and later poses for pictures with them. Mr Garcetti, who is often seen trying out Indian delicacies, relishes Kolkata’s famous Jhal Muri and calls it “perfect”. He concludes his visit by relishing biryani, fish and some traditional sweets.
