The Israel-Hamas War continues on and is just a few days shy of marking one-month of the horrific conflict.

Israel continues to target Hamas hotspots striking 11,000 terror hubs since the war started.

Meanwhile, the first group of civilian evacuees from Gaza crossed into Egypt under a Qatar- mediated deal.

This as Israeli forces bombed the Palestinian enclave from the land, sea and air while pressing on with their offensive against Hamas militants.

EU probes Meta’s WhatsApp AI chatbot policy for potential antitrust violations affecting third-party developers and competition.

The European Commission has opened an antitrust investigation into Meta over WhatsApp’s new AI chatbot policy. The inquiry examines whether the policy restricts third-party AI developers from accessing WhatsApp’s business tools, potentially breaching EU competition rules.

Meta updated its terms, effective January 2026, which have already barred new AI providers since October 15. The rules prohibit AI developers from using WhatsApp as their primary service, affecting a number of AI companies looking to integrate with the platform.

The EU’s competition commissioner is considering interim measures to ensure fair competition. If Meta is found in violation, it could face fines of up to 10% of its global annual revenue.
