Gaza Strip
Attacks: There are no safe places for the militarily-dominated population in Gaza, who find themselves subjected to airstrikes and other missile attacks on buildings, homes and many essentialfacilities, as well as constant gunfire and invasions by Israeli forces. The Israeli Navy continues to fire missiles, targeting facilities and buildings along the entire Gaza shoreline.
Victims: 23 more people have been killed, bringing the total number killed in Gaza since 7 October to at least 41,638. Another 101 have been wounded, bringing that total to 96,460. The daily average number of men, women and children killed in Gaza is at least 115 and, that of those injured, is more than 268.

Iran says missiles fired at Israel in response to assassinations
Iran’s IRGC says tens of missiles fired in retaliation for the killing of Hezbollah, Hamas and IRGC officials. Iran says it launched a barrage of missiles at Israel in response to the assassinations of senior Hezbollah, Hamas and Iranian officials, sending Israelis rushing to bomb shelters and raising fears of all-out war in the region. Alarms sounded across Israel and explosions could be heard in Jerusalem and Tel Aviv during the attack late on Tuesday. Israel’s emergency services said at least two people sustained light injuries “from shrapnel in the Tel Aviv area”. “In response to the martyrdom of Ismail Haniyeh, Hassan Nasrallah and Nilforoushan, we targeted the heart of the occupied territories,” the IRGC said in a statement. It said its missile attack targeted “three military bases” in the Tel Aviv area. Earlier, the IRGC said it launched tens of missiles at Israel, and that if Israel retaliated, Tehran’s response would be “more crushing and ruinous”.
Iran’s state television said 80 percent of the missiles launched at Israel hit their targets. The United States said its forces were ready to provide “additional defensive support” to Israel after helping protect it from the Iranian missile attack. “Our forces remain postured to provide additional defensive support and to protect US forces operating in the region” after “defending against Iranian-launched missiles targeting Israel”, a US defence official said on condition of anonymity. Iranian-backed Iraqi armed groups meanwhile said US bases in Iraq and the region will be targets if the US joins any response to Iranian strikes on Israel or if Israel uses Iraqi airspace against Tehran. The firing of missiles came after Israeli troops launched ground raids into Lebanon, in the biggest escalation of regional warfare since fighting erupted in Gaza last October.
