US-Israeli Gaza genocide 

Israel’s indiscriminate attacks continue to claim more Palestinian lives more than five months into the regime’s genocidal war on the besieged Gaza Strip. At least six people were killed in airstrikes and shootings by Israeli forces who targeted civilians in central Gaza. In the west of Gaza City, Israeli forces once again opened fire on Palestinian civilians waiting for aid trucks, killing at least five people and injuring over 20 others. Meanwhile, malnutrition and dehydration continue to wreak havoc on the Palestinian population. A 15-year-old teenager and a 72-year-old man have died in two hospitals due to lack of food and water. Gaza’s medical sources say the number of people dying of malnutrition and dehydration in Gaza has surged to 20. More than 30,700 Gazans, most of them women and children, have been killed since the Israeli onslaught started early last October. 

Israel war of starvation 

South Africa has once again asked the International Court of Justice to take additional emergency measures against Israel amid the regime’s genocidal war in Gaza. South Africa urged the World Court to take immediate measures to stop an imminent tragedy and save Gazans from dying of starvation. It also warned about the threat of a looming all-out famine in the war-ravaged territory. Pretoria urged the World Court to force Israel to take immediate and effective measures to enable the provision of the desperately-needed humanitarian aid in Gaza. It said such measures must be taken without a new round of hearings because of the extreme urgency of the situation in the coastal territory. In a case filed by South Africa in January, the ICJ had ordered Israel to refrain from any acts that could fall under the Genocide Convention.

Resistance supporting Gaza 

The Islamic Resistance in Iraq has launched a new attack against Israeli targets in the occupied territories in support of the Palestinian people in Gaza. The Iraqi resistance says it has targeted Kiryat Shmona Airport in the north of the occupied territories with a drone. Earlier this week, the resistance targeted Israeli port of Haifa twice, hitting a chemical facility anda power station at its airport using drones. The Islamic resistance in Iraq says it will continue its attacks on Israeli targets until the regime stops its genocide in Gaza. It has also struck major American military bases in Syria and Iraq amid anger over the US support for Israel’s onslaught on Gaza.
