The Israeli military says its ground forces have “encircled” the city of Khan Younis in the southern Gaza Strip after 24 of its soldiers were killed in the enclave in its largest single-day toll in the three-month war. “Over the past day, troops carried out an extensive operation during which they encircled Khan Younis and deepened the operation in the area,” the military said in a statement on Tuesday, calling the city a stronghold of the Palestinian armed group Hamas. The Palestinian Red Crescent says Israeli forces have shelled its headquarters. Al Jazeera’s Hani Mahmoud reports from Rafah in southern Gaza.

In the Gaza Strip, heavy Israeli bombardment struck extensively, encompassing land, air, and sea assaults. The southern region bore the brunt, particularly Khan Younis and Rafah city. Overnight, Rafah’s central area and Shaboura refugee camp faced bombings, resulting in 23 fatalities, including four children, and over 10 critically injured. The most devastating impact occurred in Khan Younis, specifically the western side, which was previously designated a ‘safe zone’ for displaced people by Israel, and has faced repeated targeting. Intense strikes near Khan Younis’s Nasser Hospital reveal a concerning pattern, with tanks and armoured vehicles deployed on the main road leading to the medical facility.

We are seeing people queue for long hours [for food and essentials] in Rafah – the centres are very small compared with the number of who […]
Even when dead, a person still has rights.

The Biden administration is pursuing a “dual-track” approach when it comes to the Gaza war, analyst Luciano Zaccara says, amid its recent decision to sell more weapons to Tel Aviv. “On the one hand they are trying to convince the public opinion that the US is really concerned about civilian casualties but also they keep sustaining Israel (militarily),” the Qatar University professor told Al Jazeera. “It is totally contradicting … it is hard to understand how this is in the national interest.” Zaccara said the policy was especially perplexing in light of “mounting pressure” in the US, including among democrats, against the war as civilian casualties in Gaza continue to […]
