Gaza’s Rafah is dangerously overcrowded as Israel pushes people south

Palestinians fleeing the fighting in Khan Younis are making their way further south. Most of Gaza’s population is crammed into an area at the southernmost tip of the Gaza Strip. Trapped between the sea and the Egyptian border, they have nowhere else to go. Many are living on the streets with little or no access to food, water, medicines or appropriate shelter.

Israeli military ‘encircles’ Khan Younis after 24 soldiers killed in Gaza

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.

War on Gaza: Another night of intense bombardment in Khan Younis & Rafah

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.

UK’s David Cameron, Germany’s Annalena Baerbock back ‘sustainable ceasefire’ in Gaza

UK Foreign Secretary David Cameron and German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock have issued a joint call for a “sustainable ceasefire” in Gaza. In an op-ed published in the Sunday Times on Sunday, Cameron and Baerbock said that “too many civilians have been killed” in Gaza and the war “cannot drag on and on”. “Israel has the right to defend itself but, in doing so, it must abide by international humanitarian law,” Cameron and Baerbock said. “Israel will not win this war if its operations destroy the prospect of peaceful co-existence with Palestinians. They have a right to eliminate the threat posed by Hamas. But too many civilians have been killed.” […]

UN warns of ‘domicide’ in Gaza: Houses and infrastructure destroyed

Netanyahu: ‘The end of the war is still a long way away’

Benjamin Netanyahu’s stance is that the war will continue until all its goals are achieved. The recent delivery of over $106 million worth of ammunition from the US, including tank rounds, reinforces Israel’s military capabilities. Despite growing international concerns and calls for a ceasefire, the US has shown alignment with Israel, as evident in their UN veto. Netanyahu aims to fulfil campaign goals, such as releasing captives, dismantling Hamas, and deradicalizing Gaza, indicating a potentially prolonged conflict, with discussions of it lasting another two months.
