 South Korean police seek arrest warrant for Hybe chairman Bang Si-Hyuk over alleged $100 million investor fraud scheme    South Korean police are seeking an arrest warrant for Bang Si-Hyuk, the billionaire music executive behind K-pop powerhouse Hybe and BTS, as part of an expanding investigation into allegations that he improperly benefited from an investor scheme involving more than $100 million. Authorities said they have asked prosecutors to pursue a court warrant for Bang’s arrest as they continue probing claims that he misled investors in 2019. Investigators allege he told investors that Hybe had no plans for an initial public offering, leading them to sell shares to a private equity fund.

 Biden Sees Ceasefire as Key to Preventing Iran’s Retaliation Against Israel


 U.S. President Joe Biden has expressed hope that a ceasefire in Gaza could prevent Iran from launching retaliatory airstrikes against Israel following the assassination of a senior Hamas official in Tehran in late July.


The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) have announced they are on "maximum alert," with the country bracing for a potential attack at any moment.


 When asked whether he believed Iran would abandon its plans if a ceasefire and a hostage agreement were reached between Israel and Hamas, Biden responded, "That’s what I expect."


 Reuters earlier reported that three senior Iranian officials had indicated - a ceasefire was the only way to convince Iran to hold off on retaliating, highlighting the fragile state of the current situation in the Middle East, where fears are growing that failed negotiations could ignite a broader regional conflict.


The United States, Egypt, and Qatar are working to mediate a deal between Israel and Hamas to end the conflict in Gaza, with talks scheduled in the coming days.

 

Israel has equally committed in sending a delegation to the negotiations in either Doha or Cairo, but Hamas has suggested it might pull out of the meeting.


Hamas is pushing for Israel to agree to a proposal first introduced in early July, which called for a phased ceasefire, a hostage exchange, and the withdrawal of Israeli troops from Gaza.


However, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu previously rejected these terms, stating that the destruction of Hamas was a necessary precursor to any lasting peace in Gaza.


 Hamas has said that further negotiations would only delay a ceasefire and allow Israel to continue its military operations in the war-torn Gaza Strip.
