Israel Gaza Massacre
Israel continues to pound various parts of the besieged Gaza Strip with its indiscriminate airstrikes and artillery fire. In southern city of Rafah, Israeli shelling of a residential neighborhood took the lives of at least 2 Palestinians. IOF targeted another residential building in Bureiji camp as well, which resulted in the death of at least 3 more Palestinians. These attacks come after Israel’s strikes on the central Gaza’s Nuseirat camp. The offensive killed some 274 Gazans and injured around 700 more. The latest casualties bring Gaza’s total death toll since October 7 to 37,084, most of whom are women and children.
Yemen naval operation
Yemen's armed forces target a British destroyer and two other vessels off the country's coast with missiles and drones in solidarity with Palestinians. The spokesman of Yemeni armed forces, Yahya Saree, said the missile forces accurately targeted the HMS Diamond, a British naval warship, with a number of ballistic missiles. Saree added that two other ships came under a joint attack by Yemeni forces for violating the ban on access to the Israeli-occupied territories. He vowed the Yemeni armed forces will continue such operations until an end to the Israeli aggression against Gaza.
