Israeli air strikes and raids across the occupied West Bank have killed at least nine Palestinians. Israel says the military operation is its largest there since the second intifada more than two decades ago. Air strikes in the cities of Tubas and Jenin also injured at least 10 people.

More than 2,000 Israeli settlers and ultra-nationalists have entered Al-Aqsa Mosque compound in occupied East Jerusalem. Israeli police prevented the settlers from entering the mosque itself. Many were seen performing Jewish religious rituals. Israel’s National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir and another minister were among the group. Ben-Gvir has previously said he believes Jews should have the right to pray at the Muslim holy site, which both Israeli law and the compound’s “status quo” regulations prohibit. Al Jazeera’s Zein Basravi joins us from Amman, Jordan to discuss the latest developments.

The ongoing truce talks in Doha and what is going on in the UN Security Council have been major topics among displaced Palestinians in Rafah city. People who are starving and dealing with acute famine in the northern part are also hoping that there will be a solid announcement of a ceasefire – not a temporary truce, but a permanent ceasefire is what they want to get back to their life as they know it. Right now, not only we are looking at the humanitarian level of the crisis, but also the ongoing state of panic and fear due to Israel’s constant threat of expanding ints ground invasion into Rafah […]
Omar Ashour, a professor at the Doha Institute for Graduate Studies, says that the Israeli announcement of building 3,500 settlement units in the occupied West Bank only seeks to increase violence against Palestinians. “We know that October 7 happened partly because of settlement activities, escalations in Jerusalem, and the unresolved history of this conflict,” he told Al Jazeera. “This is basically taking us into a similar round of escalation. It means that a peaceful resolution for this conflict is just getting further and further away.” He went on to say that an increase in settlement activities will face more and more Palestinian resistance. “Some of that will be violent, and […]

Israeli settlers seize Palestinian family homes in Hebron The flashpoint city of Hebron in the occupied West Bank has seen a rise in tensions after Israeli settlers moved into three Palestinian apartments by force just over a week ago. Within hours the army turned the site into a closed military zone, in effect providing protection to the settlers, and restricting the Abu Rajab family access to their own home. The Abu Rajabs are slowly being forced from a cluster of apartment building, in which they have lived for decades.
