- Concerns were raised regarding the screening of UNRWA employees and the content of textbooks, while Israel has yet to provide evidence to support the claim that a significant number of UNRWA employees are members of terrorist organizations.

Iran oil exports hit 6-year high as west prepares sanctions: Surge in crude sales to China exposes limits of US and EU attempts to rein in Islamic republic
ft.com/content/00bb5653-e9aa-4af1-8f9e-705137947b32
Quick Glance: Iran's Oil Exports Thrive Amid Rising Tensions
- Iran is exporting more oil than in the past six years, providing the economy with a $35 billion annual boost, as western countries consider tightening sanctions in response to the attack on Israel.
- The US and the EU are preparing new sanctions on the Islamic republic to deter conflict escalation with Israel, facing challenges due to Iran's successful circumvention of sanctions, especially with China being its primary customer.
- Iran has found ways to bypass sanctions, shielded from western pressure as its main oil exports go to China. Tensions have escalated since the Hamas attack on Israel, driving oil prices up by over 15%, while US efforts to sanction individual tankers carrying Iranian oil have had minimal impact so far.
- Mounting Republican pressure urges the Biden administration to take tougher action on Iran's oil sales, with criticism over perceived leniency on existing measures. Despite US strategic oil reserves being released to stabilize prices, concerns remain over the administration's stance on enforcing sanctions similar to the previous Trump administration.

reuters.com/world/middle-east/turkeys-erdogan-says-he-does-not-believe-hamas-will-leave-qatar-2024-04-23/
Quick Glance: Turkey Should Not Provide Sanctuary to Hamas
- The images of the meeting between the Turkish President and the Hamas leader in Istanbul are causing unease. Supporting the terrorist organization is problematic. The Islamists are no longer suitable as negotiating partners for resolving the Middle East conflict.
- Recep Tayyip Erdogan received Hamas leader Ismail Haniya with a certain statesmanship and drew parallels between Hamas and Turkish insurgents. Turkey adamantly refuses to categorize Hamas as a terrorist organization.
- Speculations are arising about a potential relocation of Hamas leaders from Qatar to Turkey. Qatar is under pressure due to its closeness to Islamists. Turkey could be an appealing choice for Hamas.
- Moving the Hamas headquarters to Turkey would be a provocation towards Israel and its allies. Hamas has discredited itself as a reliable negotiating partner. A political resolution of the Middle East conflict should exclude the involvement of Hamas.

Quick Glance: Google terminates 28 employees after office occupation due to anti-Israel protests
- Google terminated 28 employees on Thursday who had occupied its offices to protest against contracts with the Israeli government, as confirmed by a Google spokesperson.
- The protesters were arrested and after refusing to leave the office of Google Cloud CEO Thomas Kurian in Sunnyvale or the workspace in New York City for nearly 10 hours, they were transferred to administrative positions to urge Google to terminate the Project Nimbus contract and cease business with the Israeli government.
- No Tech For Apartheid, a project by Jewish Voice for Peace and Linda Sarsour’s MPower Change, described the terminations as an "indiscriminate act of mass retaliation."
- The office occupations at Google were accompanied by demonstrations on-site and in Seattle, aiming to compel Google to withdraw from the project to establish cloud-based data centers and transition a significant portion of the Israeli government's IT infrastructure to cloud-based servers.

Quick Glance: San Francisco's Real Estate Market in Turmoil
- The city of San Francisco, once seen as the shining star of the West Coast, is now on the verge of collapse, with seemingly no one raising the alarm.
- In particular, the city's housing market has been severely impacted over the past year, with prices plummeting and homeowners fleeing en masse.
- Jamie Dimon, CEO of JPMorgan Chase, did not hold back in his comparison of San Francisco's issues to those of New York City, stating that the Bay Area is 'in far worse shape.'
- San Francisco is failing in all aspects, leading to a quiet collapse of its housing market, where once luxurious properties are now being offered at significant discounts.

Quick Glance: Summer Lee Secures Key Victory in Pennsylvania Primary
- Pennsylvania congresswoman Summer Lee successfully navigated a primary challenge on Tuesday, securing progressives one of their most crucial wins of this election cycle while preparing for an influx of pro-Israel funding targeting candidates supportive of a ceasefire.
- During the primaries, Lee emerged victorious against local council member Bhavini Patel, who had raised concerns about the stance of the progressive “Squad” member on the Gaza ceasefire.
- The resonance of this argument was evident among many of Lee’s supporters and local Democratic figures. The Allegheny County Democratic party formally endorsed Lee in February, marking their support for her for the first time after having backed her opponent in the 2022 primaries.
- Despite the pro-Israel lobby staying out of the picture, a Super Pac intervened in Lee’s primary to bolster Patel’s campaign. The Moderate Pac, with a mission to back centrist Democrats and significant funding from Republican megadonor Jeffrey Yass, allocated over $600,000 to support Patel.
