Middle East latest: Gaza ceasefire is delayed over dispute between Hamas and Israel

The Israeli military says it “continues to attack” inside the Gaza Strip as a dispute with Hamas delayed the start of a planned ceasefire. Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari, the military’s chief spokesman, said the truce would not begin until Hamas hands over the names of three hostages to be released later on Sunday, echoing an earlier statement from Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The truce had been set to go into effect at 8:30 a.m. local time. Hamas blamed the delay in handing over the names on “technical field reasons.” It said in a statement that it is committed to the ceasefire deal announced last week. Netanyahu said he had instructed the military that the ceasefire “will not begin until Israel has in its possession the list of hostages to be freed, which Hamas committed to provide.” He had issued a similar warning the night before. The ceasefire was set to pause the fighting after 15 months of war and see the release of dozens of hostages held by the militants in the Gaza Strip and hundreds of Palestinians imprisoned by Israel. Israel’s Cabinet approved the

TikTok goes offline for US users; Trump ‘likely’ to grant extension to avoid ban

TikTok alerted users as they opened the app Saturday night that it has gone offline in the U.S. The shut down comes as the app is scheduled to be banned due to a bipartisan congressional law that ordered the platform to sever ties with China-based parent company ByteDance by Sunday. TikTok is warning users that it’s about to go offline in the U.S. due to a bipartisan law requiring it to cut ties with China-based parent company ByteDance by Sunday. President-elect Donald Trump told ABC News in an interview Saturday he is likely to grant TikTok a 90-day extension to avoid a ban in the United States. Trump, who called for a TikTok ban during his first administration, has said in the last couple of months that the app shouldn’t be removed and told ABC News he is looking into his options to salvage it. “I’m the one who is going to be calling the shots. Most likely, I’ll extend for 90 days,” he told ABC’s Rachel Scott. “You have the extension for 90 days as you probably know. I’ll do that until we figure

VISALIA, Calif. (KFSN) — You’d be hard-pressed to find a hotter team in the Central Valley. With a perfect (20-0) record on the season, The College of the Sequoias (COS) women’s basketball team is currently the No. 1 ranked CCCAA team in California. “We’re about winning,” first-year Head Coach Tyler Newton said. “I never really put an emphasis on record.” You can’t see it at practice, but there’s a giant target on the girls’ backs. Coach Newton says their games have become everyone’s ‘Super Bowl’. “We prepare the same for every game,” Newton said. “We prepare like it’s a state championship game.” Coach Newton comes to Visalia after four straight Golden Valley Conference titles at Butte College. He’s also brought in his entire staff, including multiple players from last year’s team at Butte.

I knew what we were capable of.” One of those former Butte players also happens to

Trump arrives in Washington for inaugural celebrations to mark his return to power

WASHINGTON — Donald Trump arrived in Washington Saturday evening to celebrate with family, supporters and political allies ahead of his second inauguration, a triumphant return for the Republican four years after he departed the city under the shadow of an attack by his supporters on the Capitol. Trump was marking his return to power with a celebration and a fireworks showcase at his Trump National Golf Club in Sterling, Virginia, about 30 miles outside Washington.

TikTok goes dark in the US

By HALELUYA HADERO, Associated Press NEW YORK (AP) — TikTok’s app was removed from prominent app stores on Saturday just before a federal law that would have banned the popular social media platform was scheduled to go into effect. By 10:50pm Eastern Standard Time, the app was not found on Apple and Google’s app stores, which are prohibited from offering the platform under a law that required TikTok’s China-based parent company, ByteDance, to sell the platform or face a U.S. ban. When users opened the TikTok app on Saturday evening, they encountered a pop-up message from the company that prevented them from scrolling on videos. “A law banning TikTok has been enacted in the U.S.,” the message said. “Unfortunately that means you can’t use TikTok for now.” “We are fortunate that President Trump has indicated that he will work with us on a solution to reinstate TikTok once he takes office,” the message said. “Please stay tuned!” Before that announcement went out, the company had said in another message to users that its service would be “temporarily unavailable” and told them its working to restore

Warriors avoid upset, defeat Wizards behind strong play in second half

SAN FRANCISCO — It wasn’t always pretty, but the Warriors got it done when it mattered most.  After a sluggish first half, Golden State’s offense found life in the final two quarters and held on to beat the last-place Washington Wizards 122-114 to open its two-game homestand.  Stephen Curry scored 26 points before suffering a minor ankle injury late, and Andrew Wiggins had a game-high 31 to lead Golden State. Dennis Schröder totaled 20 points and four assists. Moses Moody was big down the stretch for the Warriors as he scored 10 of his 13 points in the second half. Draymond Green exited the game at the nine minute mark of the first quarter and did not return. The team announced the injury was due to left calf tightness – an ailment that kept Green out back-to-back games in early December. Former Warrior Jordan Poole made his second appearance at Chase Center as a member of the Wizards and hit 8 of his 15 3-point attempts, finishing with 38 points to lead Washington. “We knew what we lacked going into the third quarter,” said Warriors

Sharks’ meager offensive output continues in loss to Islanders

The San Jose Sharks gave up three goals in the second period, including a backbreaker with just 27 seconds left before intermission in a 4-1 loss to the New York Islanders on Saturday at UBS Arena. The Sharks managed just 11 shots in the first two periods, but one was a goal by Barclay Goodrow, whose shot from near the boards inside the Islanders zone got past goalie Marcus Hogberg and tied the game 1-1 with 10:02 left in the second period. But the Islanders responded 40 seconds later, as a long pass from Adam Pelech got through the neutral zone to Kyle Palmieri to set up a 2-on-1. Palmieri then fed Brock Nelson, who beat Sharks goalie Alexander Georgiev from in close for his 13th goal of the season. On the play, Fabian Zetterlund came off the Sharks bench but lost track of Nelson, who scooted up the ice to set up the odd-man rush, as Cody Ceci was back defending another Islanders player. “We just can’t make these boneheaded mistakes that end up in the back of our net,” Sharks coach Ryan Warsofsky said.

Draymond Green exits game against Wizards with left calf tightness

Draymond Green will not return to Saturday’s game against the Washington Wizards due to left calf tightness, the Golden State Warriors announced on X. Green exited Saturday’s contest just three minutes into the first quarter. He limped to the bench and eventually went to the Warriors’ locker room. Green’s injury wasn’t apparently clear, but the four-time All-Star looked noticeably slower in the few possessions before the timeout. Green dealt with calf injuries earlier this season as he was inactive for two games in early December with the same ailment. He missed the Warriors’ last three games with an illness. This story will be updated.

‘Nothing’s guaranteed’: SF Giants react to Dodgers signing of Roki Sasaki

NAPA — Around three o’clock on Friday afternoon, Roki Sasaki announced he was signing with the Los Angeles Dodgers. Less than 24 hours later, the San Francisco Giants hosted the first leg of their FanFest Tour in Napa to garner excitement for the coming season. Talk about timing. “At the end of the day, he chose that team,” left-hander Kyle Harrison told this news organization. “That’s the way you have to look at it. I think that’s probably where he thought he was going to get better after going through all those processes. … Maybe he found that was the best fit along with some other guys he knew on the team. I don’t know. We have to beat the Dodgers, though, so I could care less about that.” For the Giants, Sasaki’s decision to join the Dodgers especially stings because San Francisco’s brass wasn’t shy about expressing its interest. At the Winter Meetings, president of baseball operations Buster Posey and general manager Zack Minasian both had raving review for “The Monster of the Reiwa Era.” Posey, in particular, described the possibility of Sasaki pitching

Trump says he’ll ‘likely’ give TikTok 90-day extension to avoid ban

President-elect Donald Trump told ABC News in an interview Saturday he is likely to grant TikTok a 90-day extension to avoid a ban in the United States. The app is scheduled to be banned due to a bipartisan congressional law that ordered the platform to sever ties with China-based parent company ByteDance by Sunday. Trump, who called for a TikTok ban during his first administration, has said in the last couple of months that the app shouldn’t be removed and told ABC News he is looking into his options to salvage it. “I’m the one who is going to be calling the shots. Most likely, I’ll extend for 90 days,” he told ABC’s Rachel Scott. “You have the extension for 90 days as you probably know. I’ll do that until we figure something out.” He did not provide further details on how an extension could be enacted. The bipartisan law has a provision allowing an extension, but only provided that the three conditions are all met and certified by the president. The first condition is “a path to executing a qualified divestiture has been identified”;

Post-inauguration ICE raids starting as soon as Tuesday, likely in Chicago, sources tell ABC News

By Luke Barr, Mireya Villarreal, and Armando Garcia Saturday, January 18, 2025 8:32PM Donald Trump’s administration is planning a “large-scale immigration raid” for mass deportations Tuesday in Chicago, the Wall Street Journal reported. As part of President-elect Donald Trump’s strategy to secure the border, Immigration and Customs Enforcement will carry out post-inauguration raids as early as Tuesday, sources briefed on the plans told ABC News. ICE will likely start in Chicago and could move on to other big cities, according to sources, who noted the plans could change. The agency has been ramping up its operations in anticipation of Trump’s plan to carry out deportations, and the agency put out a request for ICE agents to volunteer to help with at least some of the operations, according to a source. The plans were first reported by the New York Times and the Wall Street Journal. Agencies that fall under the Department of Homeland Security umbrella, such as Enforcement and Removal Operations, which handles deportations, and Homeland Security Investigations, have been put on “alert” by the incoming administration, officials with knowledge of the plan told ABC

SF Giants’ Harrison, Hicks aiming to take steps forward in 2025

NAPA — The temperature at Napa Yard hovered in the low 40s for much of Saturday’s FanFest. Every breath, every word produced clouds of vapor. But in several weeks’ time, pitchers Jordan Hicks and Kyle Harrison will venture down to Scottsdale, Arizona, where they’ll be greeted by true baseball weather. And heightened expectations, too. “Anytime this comes around, we get the itch,” Harrison told this news organization. “Baseball season is right around the corner, so we’re excited to be out here. Can’t wait for the offseason to be over.” Willie Mays jerseys are popular at the San Francisco Giants FanFest event, where starting pitcher Kyle Harrison took the stage at the Napa Yard, Saturday, Jan. 18, 2025, in Napa, Calif. (Karl Mondon/Bay Area News Group) With the Giants failing to lure right-handers Corbin Burnes and Roki Sasaki to San Francisco, they’ll be leaning heavily on Harrison and Hicks to take steps forward and provide more — both quality and quantity — than they did last season. Harrison, 23, and Hicks, 28, are at different points in their careers, but last year, they both recorded career-highs

Chico girls soccer blanks improving Red Bluff, 5-0

CHICO — Coaches love having players who give them flexibility with their lineups. For Chico High School coach Tiberiu Marinescu, that is exactly what he has in senior Juliana Carranza, who scored two goals in Chico’s 5-0 victory over Red Bluff High School on Friday night at Panthers Stadium. Marinescu started Carranza, in her fourth year of varsity soccer at Chico, at the defensive midfield spot before moving her up to the forward line, where would tally both of her goals in the second half. “It’s amazing, it’s every coach’s dream,” he said. “It’s good to have (a player like Carranza); I am very lucky. She’s an amazing athlete; she’s tactically disciplined; she has the quality, obviously, so it’s a great relief to me to have that flexibility.” Marina Carlos celebrates her second-half goal with Olivia Lourenco (2), Selma Buxrud, Nyessa Santos (20), and Sienna Jones (17) in Chico High’s 5-0 win over Red Bluff on Friday, Jan.. 17, 2025, in Chico, California.

With a US ban on TikTok hours away, Trump says he ‘most likely’ will grant an extension

By HALELUYA HADERO, Associated Press The clock is ticking toward a U.S. ban on TikTok, but users seeking clarity on what that will mean did not get much Saturday from the company that runs the popular video-sharing platform or the tech giants that offer the TikTok app in their digital marketplaces. However, President-elect Donald Trump said in an interview with NBC News that he was considering granting an extension that might allow TikTok to keep going beyond Sunday, when a law that prohibits mobile app stores and internet hosting services from distributing TikTok to U.S. users takes effect. The ban’s timing has complicated matters, perhaps in TikTok’s favor: the outgoing Biden administration reiterated Saturday that it considers the law’s implementation and enforcement to be the responsibility of Trump, who takes office on Monday and has pledged to “save” the app. Under the law, TikTok’s China-based parent company, ByteDance, had nine months to sell the platform’s U.S. operation to an approved buyer. The law allows the sitting president to extend the deadline by 90 days if a sale is in progress. Are there any viable deals on the table?
