                <description><![CDATA[The deputy chairman of Hamas&#039; Political Bureau said Saturday that he expects Israelis to campaign off Gaza&#039;s blood and dismissed the prospect that Israel&#039;s upcoming election would change conditions for Palestinians, according to a Middle East Eye report. Khalil al-Hayya made the statement in an interview with the Qatari station Al-Araby, the report stated. The remarks were made amid ongoing hostilities in Gaza and as Israel&#039;s election cycle continued. Whether this or that person comes to power, ...]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[Saudi Arabia is running low on missile interceptors as attacks from Yemen&#039;s Houthi forces continue to strain the kingdom&#039;s air defenses, and Riyadh has appealed to France, Britain, Pakistan, and Egypt for military assistance, according to a report by the Associated Press. The appeal, reported on Sept. 16, reflects a widening gap between the volume of incoming drones and ballistic missiles and the supply of defensive munitions available to Saudi forces. The AP report cited regional officials who ...]]></description>
