JABALIA/ GAZA STRIP: Israeli attacks on Gaza have killed at least 55 people so far today, including 23 killed in an intense wave of strikes on central Gaza’s Bureij.
The Israeli government has approved 22 illegal settlements in the occupied West Bank, the largest one-time approval in history.
Chaos continues to unfold at aid distribution points in southern Gaza, with authorities in the Strip saying soldiers opened fire on hungry people, killing at least 10 over the last three days.
Israel’s war on Gaza has killed at least 54,249 Palestinians and wounded 123,492, according to Gaza’s Health Ministry. The Government Media Office updated its death toll to more than 61,700, saying thousands of people missing under the rubble are presumed dead.
An estimated 1,139 people were killed in Israel during the Hamas-led attacks of October 7, 2023, and more than 200 were taken captive.
The Palestinian Health Ministry in Gaza says the Israeli army has ordered the forced evacuation of Al Awda Hospital in Jabalia.
The ministry called on the international community to protect Gaza’s health system and uphold international humanitarian law.
The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation has opened a new distribution centre in central Gaza close to the Netzarim Corridor, where thousands of desperate families have gathered to get aid.
The distribution process has played out there chaotically, in a sign of a failing strategy to safely distribute aid.
Let’s compare this with how UN agencies have operated over the past decades. The UN usually follows a very established humanitarian network, using some sort of concrete data to distribute aid, sending messages for every family individually with a time and location for collection, in order to ensure that the operation will go smoothly and safely.
By contrast, the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation’s mechanism is bringing more cycles of turmoil to Gaza, a new episode of dehumanization.
There have been multiple explosions near a food distribution point opened by the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation in the centre of the Strip.
That’s after Israeli shots were fired near one of their aid points in the south on Wednesday.
Journalist Tareq Abu Azzoum has the latest from Deir el-Balah in central Gaza, Palestine.
Media is reporting that an Israeli drone launched a raid on the vicinity of the town of Nabatieh al-Fawqa in southern Lebanon.
Last week, Lebanese Prime Minister Nawaf Salam denounced a wave of Israeli attacks across southern Lebanon, calling on the international community to pressure Israel to respect a ceasefire reached in November with Lebanese group Hezbollah.
At least 64 people have been killed since the early hours of this morning by Israeli attacks on Gaza, the Strip’s Health Ministry says.
A least 30 of the victims were in the north of the enclave, the ministry said.
Amjad Shawa, the director of the Palestinian NGO Network, has told Al Jazeera that the opening of a new Israel-backed aid centre south of the Netzarim Corridor was another indication of Israel’s plan to “forcibly displace Palestinians from the north of Gaza towards the south”.
The aid centres backed by the US and run by the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation have faced international criticism after at least 10 Palestinian aid seekers were killed by Israeli forces in the past three days. (Int’l Monitoring Desk)
