US-Israeli Gaza genocide

The Israeli regime is pressing ahead with air and artillery strikes across Gaza, with southern parts of the blockaded territory being the focal point of the latest attacks. At least six people were killed and over two dozen injured after Israeli warplanes struck a residential building in Khan Yunis, southern Gaza. Israeli fighter jets also struck a group of civilians near a school in the city, killing and injuring several people. Two Palestinian journalists were killed after the regime's forces bombed journalists' tents in Nasser Hospital in Khan Yunis. Other parts of Gaza were also targeted by the regime’s military. In one of the bloodiest attacks, around a dozen civilians were killed, and many others injured after Israeli air and artillery strikes targeted the Al-Tuffah neighborhood in Gaza City. Eight civilians, including women and children, were killed in an Israeli attack on a home in the central city of Deir al-Balah. Israeli strikes also claimed several lives in Jabaliya, northern Gaza. The Israeli genocide has killed nearly 50,700 Palestinians so far, leaving over 115,300 injured.

Israel war on children

Palestinian officials in Gaza say Israeli forces have committed a shocking crime of genocide against children over the past twenty days. Gaza's government media office said nearly 500 Palestinian children have been killed in Israel’s barbaric attacks since the regime resumed its genocidal war on the territory. It added that entire families are being wiped out and childhood is buried under the rubble of homes. The media office strongly condemned Israel’s systematic and deliberate policy of killing Palestinian children in Gaza. It held the regime, the US, and their Western allies complicit in the genocide, and fully responsible for the continued massacres targeting children in Gaza. The office also condemned global inaction in the face of Israeli crimes. It said the continued shameful international silence and failure to hold Israel accountable clearly proves complicity in a genocide that is taking place in full view of the world. The office also urged the international community, human rights organizations, and international courts to take immediate action to halt Israel’s crimes against children and civilians in Gaza.

Hamas retaliatory operation

The Hamas resistance movement has launched a retaliatory operation against the occupied Palestinian territories in response to Israel’s renewed genocide in Gaza. Hamas' military wing, al-Qassam Brigades, said several rockets were fired at the occupied city of Ashdod. It added that the operation was in response to crimes committed by Israeli forces against Palestinian civilians in the Gaza Strip. The rocket attack caused sirens to sound in the occupied cities of Ashdod and Asqalan. The Israeli military confirmed the attack, saying "approximately 10 projectiles" were fired from Gaza into the occupied territories within a few minutes. It claimed that most of the rockets were intercepted. However, videos posted online clearly show that Hamas’ rockets reached the occupied lands, causing damage to settlers’ cars and homes. There have been no reports of possible casualties so far.
