Israel has killed at least 35,903 Palestinians — including babies, children, and women — and wounded 80,420 in its 232-day war on Gaza.
Spokesman for Hamas' armed wing Abu Obeida has said that its forces had captured Israeli soldiers during fighting in Gaza's Jabalia."The IDF clarifies that there is no incident in which a soldier was abducted," the military said in a statement.At least six Palestinians were killed and 20 others were injured on Saturday in an Israeli airstrike targeting a unit housing displaced people in the Nuseirat refugee camp, central Gaza Strip, medical sources said.
"I look at the ruling that has been made with extreme seriousness, and I hope that it is also a seriousness that descends in Israel,” Foreign Minister Lars Lokke Rasmussen said. "Thanks to the U.S. Armed Forces, we're doing what only America can do as the indispensable nation, the world's only superpower," Biden said.
Over 20,000 patients are waiting for the opening of the Rafah crossing to leave Gaza for treatment, the Health Ministry in besieged Palestinian enclave said. In an interview with Israeli public broadcaster KAN, Olmert said that “the military operation in Rafah must be stopped".The Israeli army has detained at least 15 Palestinians from areas across the occupied West Bank.
Speaking at a meeting of the Foreign Economic Relations Board in Istanbul, Erdogan was unequivocal about what has been happening in Gaza since October 7, 2023. "At the end of the meeting, it was decided that in the coming week negotiations will open based on new proposals led by the mediators, Egypt and Qatar and with active US involvement," the source said.The Spanish government has demanded that Israel comply with an order by the top UN court to immediately stop its bombardment and ground assault on city of Rafah.
"The reason there isn’t a pause in the fighting is because Hamas turned down a very generous hostage deal from Israel. The intervention of these courts — including the ICJ today — will strengthen the view of Hamas that they can hold on to hostages and stay in Gaza," a UK foreign ministry spokesperson said late on Friday.
"The fascist aggression against the city of Rafah and all parts of Gaza and the Palestinian Territory must be stopped, and the Nazi occupation army must withdraw completely,” the committee said. "Italy has decided to resume financing specific projects intended for assistance to Palestinian refugees but only after rigorous controls that guarantee that not even a penny risks ending up supporting terrorism," he said.
Israel's expanding operations in Gaza's Rafah force over 900,000 already displaced Palestinians to move further north, where nobody is safeA senior Australian minister has urged Israel to"abide by" the International Court of Justice order to halt its military assault on southern Gaza. The statement echoes a warning from US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen, who said the failure to renew a soon-to-expire banking waiver would cut off a critical lifeline for the Palestinian territories amid a devastating war in Gaza.
Israel gave no indication it was preparing to change course in Rafah, insisting that the court had got it wrong. Implementing the order to stop the Israeli military operations “will pave the way for peace in the world,” he said. A campus safety officer at a public college in New York City has been suspended after footage circulated online showing him cursing at pro-Palestinian protesters during a graduation ceremony and saying he supported killing them all, the school confirmed.
French President Emmanuel Macron organised the meeting amid growing international concerns over Israel's genocidal war. It came a few hours after the UN's top court ordered Israel to halt its invasion in the Gaza city of Rafah.
