US-Israeli Gaza genocide

Israel’s violations of the Gaza ceasefire agreement continue unabated. One of the regime’s latest strikes hit the Nasser Hospital in southern Gaza, killing five people and injuring over a dozen. Local sources say Israeli warplanes struck the emergency building of the hospital. Hamas says the regime assassinated its Political Bureau member Ismail Barhoum, who was receiving treatment at the hospital. The movement said the latest crime adds to the occupation’s long record of terrorism and reaffirms its disregard for all international norms and conventions. In other attacks, two civilians were killed and several others injured in shelling of a tent near Khan Yunis. Gaza health ministry says at least 51 civilians were killed in Israeli raids on Sunday. Now, the death toll from the US-backed Israeli genocide in Gaza tops 50,000, with over 113,270 others injured. According to UN figures, most victims are women and children. The new fatalities came after Israel resumed its aggression against Gaza on Tuesday, conducting unrelenting air and artillery strikes on the blockaded territory.

Two other US air raids targeted areas around Sa'ada city, including Sahar and Saqin districts. Two earlier raids also targeted Sa’ada city’s Sahar and Ketaf districts. A member of Yemen's Supreme Political Council condemned the attacks as US terrorism and a blatant assault on civilians. Mohammed Ali al-Houthi said the US aggression is aimed at supporting Israel's continued crimes in the region. He vowed Yemen's operations would persist until the US-Israeli terrorism ends. Houthi also reaffirmed Yemen's support for resistance in Gaza and Lebanon, as well as the Palestinian cause and regional security.

Turkish police have clashed with large groups of demonstrators protesting the arrest of Istanbul Mayor Ekrem Imamoglu for the fifth night in a row. The clashes came after thousands gathered outside Istanbul city hall. Police forces used water cannons, pepper spray, and rubber bullets to disperse the protesters. Earlier, a court ordered Imamoglu jailed pending the outcome of a trial on corruption charges. His detention on Wednesday morning sparked Turkey’s largest wave of street demonstrations in more than a decade. His imprisonment is widely regarded as a political move to remove a major contender to President Recep Tayyip Erdogan from the next presidential race. The mayor's arrest has galvanized the opposition against Erdogan's government. His detention caps a months-long legal crackdown on opposition figures and the removal of a number of elected officials from office. Turkey's authorities have also called for the closure of more than seven-hundred accounts on X social media platform.
