Iran-backed terror group Hezbollah targeted Tel Aviv for the first time ever on Wednesday, launching missiles toward the city, and marking a further escalation in the region. It comes after President Biden gave his final address to the United Nations General Assembly, in which he urged a cease-fire and end to the conflict.
CAIRO — Israel returned the bodies on Wednesday of 88 Palestinians killed in its military offensive in the Gaza Strip, which the territory’s health ministry refused to bury before Israel discloses details about who they are and where it killed them.
The head of the Hamas-run Gaza government media office said health ministry officials told the driver of the truck to bring the bodies of dead Palestinians back to the Israeli crossing from which he had arrived. The truck then left the hospital. “They must act according to the international humanitarian law and in a way that preserves the dignity of the martyrs and their families,” Ismail Al-Thawabta told Reuters. The Red Cross said it wasn’t involved in the transfer process.
