What happened during the plane crash landing in Toronto?
John Nelson was on a flight from Detroit to Toronto when the plane attempted to land in difficult conditions with whipping winds and snow-covered runways. Without any warning from the pilot, the aircraft hit the runway extremely hard, causing it to pop up and lean to the left. The impact was severe enough that the plane appears to have flipped over, as John later mentions being suspended upside down in his seat. Despite the chaotic and frightening circumstances, passengers and crew reportedly remained calm and worked together to evacuate the aircraft after it stopped tumbling.

What is Egypt's alternative plan for Gaza reconstruction?
Egypt has developed an alternative Gaza reconstruction plan that aims to rebuild without displacing Palestinians from the Strip. According to Egypt's state-run Al Ahram newspaper, the proposal calls for establishing secure areas within Gaza where Palestinians can live initially while the infrastructure is rehabilitated. The plan involves Egyptian and international construction firms working to remove debris and rebuild Gaza's infrastructure. This approach stands in contrast to other proposals and emphasizes allowing Palestinians to remain in their homeland during the reconstruction process, which would be conducted in phases to ensure both security and development.

What is Egypt's three-part proposal for Gaza's reconstruction?
Egypt's vision centers around three crucial components. First, creating a new governing body for Gaza separate from Hamas and the Palestinian Authority to ensure neutral leadership oversees reconstruction. Second, establishing a Palestinian police force composed of former PA officers who remained in Gaza after 2007, supported by Egyptian and Western trained forces. Third, implementing a phased reconstruction strategy over five years, beginning with safe zones equipped with mobile housing shelters and humanitarian aid. This comprehensive approach aims to rebuild Gaza while maintaining stability and preventing Palestinian displacement.

Why are shelters not reaching Gaza despite being part of the ceasefire agreement?
Israel is reportedly blocking the entry of shelters into Gaza, despite this being a condition of the ceasefire agreement. Under the agreement, Israel had committed to allowing 60,000 mobile homes and 10,000 tents into Gaza, but only 20,000 tents have been permitted entry while none of the mobile homes have gained access. The tens of thousands of mobile homes remain stranded at the Rafah crossing with Egypt, awaiting Israeli permission to enter. This blockage comes as Israel continues its military operations in Gaza, violating key humanitarian provisions of the ceasefire deal that was meant to provide essential shelter for displaced Palestinians.
