The Israeli military said a hostage was rescued Tuesday from a Gaza tunnel, more than 10 months after the Israeli Bedouin man was seized during the Hamas attack that triggered a devastating war.

Talks aiming to secure a Gaza truce and hostage release deal meanwhile continued in Qatar, a US official said. Neither Israel nor Hamas have confirmed their participation.

The Israeli military said forces had found Kaid Farhan Alkadi, 52, in a tunnel in southern Gaza "when he was alone", despite a previous assessment that militants "and explosives" were there.

Fosir Mia moved to Saudi Arabia thinking he would earn a handsome salary as an electrician, only to find himself hauling steel rods in harsh desert heat for paltry pay.

After 13-hour shifts at a construction site outside Riyadh, the Bangladeshi national would return to the room he shared with 11 other workers, then fight for a turn at the gas stove so he could make dinner before repeating the routine the next day.

At least 30 people were killed in northeast Sudan after a dam collapsed due to flooding, the United Nations' humanitarian office has said.

The war-torn country has experienced an intense rainy season since last month, with intermittent torrential flooding mainly in the country's north and east.

"Thirty fatalities have been confirmed" following the Sunday collapse of the Arbaat Dam in Sudan's Red Sea state, the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) cited a government delegation as saying Monday.

The Israeli military said it rescued an Israeli hostage in Gaza on Tuesday after a "complex operation", as the Israel-Hamas war, now in its 11th month, showed no signs of abating.

Kaid Alkadi, a 52-year-old Israeli Bedouin, was abducted by Palestinian militants during the October 7 Hamas attack on Israel, the military said in a statement.

"Kaid AlKadi was rescued... in a complex operation in the southern Gaza Strip," the military said.

"He is in a stable medical condition and is being transferred for medical checks to a hospital."

The United States gave its backing Tuesday to UN efforts to resolve differences between Libya's rival administrations over the management of the central bank without cutting off vital oil income.

The US embassy said the move by the UN Support Mission in Libya "offers a path forward to resolve the crisis" following the eastern administration's announcement on Monday that it was suspending operations at all oil fields and export terminals under its control.

The Committee to Protect Journalists and Reporters Without Borders on Tuesday called for the immediate release of Syrian journalist Bakr al-Kassem who has been detained by pro-Turkish factions.

Kassem has worked for several media outlets including AFP in an area of the north of Syria controlled by Turkey-backed rebel factions.

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights war monitor said earlier on Tuesday he had been detained by local "military police" for unknown reasons.

The UAE said Tuesday it had requested consular services for Telegram's Pavel Durov after the Dubai-based tech boss was arrested in France over alleged failings to curb criminality on the app.

"The UAE is closely following the case of its citizen Pavel Durov, founder of Telegram, who was arrested by the French authorities in Paris–Le Bourget Airport," the Gulf state's foreign ministry said in a statement.

"The UAE has submitted a request to the Government of the French Republic to provide him with all the necessary consular services in an urgent manner," it added.

Libya's eastern-based administration said on Monday it was shutting down oil fields and terminals it controls and suspending production amid rising tensions with the UN-recognised government based in Tripoli.

A statement by the Benghazi-based administration posted on X said it was "suspending all oil production and exports until further notice", citing "force majeure".

The locations affected constitute around 90 percent of the country's oil fields and terminals.

War-weary Palestinians on Monday pushed wheelchair-bound and bed-ridden patients through the streets of central Gaza, evacuating a hospital in a frantic bid to stay ahead of feared Israeli bombardment.

The Israeli military had told people the day before to "evacuate immediately" a part of Deir el-Balah city because it planned to "act with force against Hamas and terrorist groups" there.

A far-right Israeli minister sparked fresh outrage on Monday by saying he would build a synagogue at Jerusalem's flashpoint Al-Aqsa mosque compound if he could, once again challenging government policy.

National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir, who has repeatedly ignored the government's long-standing ban on Jews praying at the site, told Army Radio that if it were possible, he would build a synagogue at the Al-Aqsa compound, known to Jews as the Temple Mount.
