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: 61 more people have been killed, bringing the total number killed in Gaza since 7 October to at least 42,126. Another 231 have been wounded, bringing that total to 98,117. The daily average number of men, women and children killed in Gaza is at least 114 and, that of those injured, is now more than 265.

65 Doctors, Nurses and Paramedics: What We Saw in Gaza
The New York Times
Dr Mimi Syed
I worked as a trauma surgeon in Gaza from March 25 to April 8. I’ve volunteered in Ukraine and Haiti, and I grew up in Flint, Mich. I’ve seen violence and worked in conflict zones. But of the many things that stood out about working in a hospital in Gaza, one got to me: Nearly every day I was there, I saw a new young child who had been shot in the head or the chest, virtually all of whom went on to die. Thirteen in total. At the time, I assumed this had to be the work of a particularly sadistic soldier located nearby. But after returning home, I met an emergency medicine physician who had worked in a different hospital in Gaza two months before me. “I couldn’t believe the number of kids I saw shot in the head,” I told him. To my surprise, he responded: “Yeah, me, too. Every single day.”
An enormous amount of information about the extent of the devastation in Gaza has been gleaned from satellite data, humanitarian organizations and Gaza’s Ministry of Health. However, Israel does not allow journalists or human rights investigators into Gaza outside of a very small number of embedded reporting trips with the Israeli military, and stories from Palestinian journalists in Gaza have not been read widely enough, despite the incredible risks they take in reporting there. But there is a group of independent observers who have seen this war from the ground, day after day: volunteer health care workers. Through personal contacts in the medical community and a good deal of searching online, I was able to get in touch with American health care workers who have served in Gaza since Oct. 7, 2023. Many have familial or religious ties to the Middle East. Others, like me, do not, but felt compelled to volunteer in Gaza for a variety of reasons.
Using questions based on my own observations and my conversations with fellow doctors and nurses, I worked with Times Opinion to poll 65 health care workers about what they had seen in Gaza. This is what we saw…. To continue reading, click here.
An unprecedented humanitarian catastrophe is imminent as the Israeli occupation tightens its siege on the Jabalia refugee camp and Beit Lahia project in the northern Gaza Strip for the fourth consecutive day. Israel is accelerating the pace of its genocide against the Palestinians there by carrying out mass and planned killings, as well as widespread forced displacements. The international community, led by the United Nations, must act swiftly and decisively to save 10s of thousands of residents who are being subjected to one of the most violent campaigns of genocide the Strip has ever witnessed. Israeli occupation forces have intensified their siege of the Jabalia refugee camp and the surrounding neighbourhoods, including Tal al-Zaatar, al-Sikka, Beit Hanoun, and Beit Lahia. The Israeli forces have also taken up positions in the western region of the Gaza Strip, advancing as far as the Jaffa Cemetery and the Tawam Junction.
With airstrikes, fire belts, and artillery shelling—including bombing homes over the heads of their occupants—the Israeli occupation forces have been occupying large portions of northern Gaza since Saturday evening, 5 October. Dozens of people have been killed and injured as a result of this ongoing invasion. In an extremely dangerous development, Israeli army forces ordered the complete evacuation of Kamal Adwan Hospital, located in the Beit Lahia project, north of Gaza. Kamal Adwan Hospital’s director, Dr Hussam Abu Safiya, reported that he received a call from the occupation forces telling him that if he did not get the patients and medical staff out of the hospital within a day, they would be put in danger. Along with two other hospitals in northern Gaza, Al-Awda Hospital and the Indonesian Hospital in Jabalia, Kamal Adwan Hospital is partially operational after being raided and destroyed in the Israeli military’s first invasion of northern Gaza last December, during which the hospital’s medical staff, patients, and displaced persons were severely mistreated by the occupation forces. Kamal Adwan Hospital is currently being besieged by Israeli quadcopter aircraft for the second day in a row, with smoke bombs being detonated at its gate and dozens of raids on nearby buildings.
Gaza’s cultural and religious heritage lies in ruins after a year of attacks by Israel
Besides causing immense human suffering, Israel has destroyed museums, religious buildings, historic artefacts and archaeological treasures. The devastation of Israel’s war on Gaza has not spared the besieged strip’s cultural heritage and museums, mosques, churches, and archaeological sites have been destroyed or heavily damaged. As of September, Unesco confirmed damage to 69 cultural heritage sites since the war started on 7 October 2023. These include 10 religious sites, 43 buildings of historical and artistic interest, two repositories of movable cultural property, six monuments, one museum, and seven archaeological sites. Unesco told Middle East Eye that its preliminary assessment using satellite imagery shows that out of these sites, 29 per cent (20 sites) appear destroyed, 20 per cent (14 sites) severely damaged, and 51 per cent (35 sites) moderately damaged.
Earlier this year, reports surfaced confirming that Israel had also looted Palestinian artefacts in Gaza. Researchers at Birzeit University in the occupied West Bank accused Israeli forces of looting more than 3,000 artefacts from Gaza’s Al-Israa University earlier this year before demolishing the site to cover up the theft. Today, Israel’s military campaign has been so catastrophic that Gaza’s urban landscape has become nearly unrecognisable. Gaza, situated between Egypt and the Levant, has historically served as a crossroads for empires, with each leaving its mark. The cultural remnants of ancient civilisations, such as those left by Egyptians, Assyrians, Romans, Christians, and Muslims, are either destroyed, damaged, or at risk. “This cultural erasure is a deliberate part of the Zionist project, aiming to disconnect the Palestinians from their historical and cultural roots while promoting a narrative that denies Palestinian history altogether,” said Dr Yakoob Ahmed, an Ottoman historian, speaking to MEE.
US calls out Israel at UN for ‘catastrophic conditions’ in Gaza
Israel needs to address urgently “catastrophic conditions” among Palestinian civilians in the besieged Gaza Strip and stop “intensifying suffering” by limiting aid deliveries, its ally the United States told the U.N. Security Council on Wednesday. Referring to reports of squalid conditions in south and central Gaza, US Ambassador to the UN Linda Thomas-Greenfield said: “These catastrophic conditions were predicted months ago, and yet, have still not been addressed. That must change, and now.” “We call on Israel to take urgent steps to do so,” she said in a blunt statement.
The 15-member Security Council met over the humanitarian crisis a year after a deadly attack by Palestinian militants Hamas on southern Israel sparked the war in Gaza. Israel has since laid to waste much of the enclave and almost the entire population of 2.3 million has been displaced.
Israel says Hamas militants killed some 1,200 people on Oct. 7, 2023, while health authorities in Gaza say nearly 42,000 people have been killed so far during Israel’s retaliation. Thomas-Greenfield also addressed a recent Israeli order for civilians in Gaza’s north to evacuate again, saying they must be able to return to communities to rebuild. “There must be no demographic or territorial change in the Gaza Strip, including any actions that reduce the territory of Gaza,” Thomas-Greenfield said. Philippe Lazzarini, the head of the U.N. Palestinian refugee agency UNRWA, told the Security Council: “Hundreds of thousands of people are again being pushed to move to the south, where living conditions are intolerable. “Yet again, Gazans are teetering on the edge of a man-made famine,” he said. The U.N. has long complained of obstacles to getting aid into Gaza and distributing it during the war. “We need to see fewer barriers to the delivery of aid, not more of them,” Thomas-Greenfield said.
Israel seizes UNRWA headquarters’ land in occupied East Jerusalem
Israel has confiscated land on which the headquarters of the UN agency for Palestinian refugees (UNRWA) is located in Jerusalem, with plans to build 1,440 settlement units on the site.
According to Israel Hayom, the free daily newspaper, the Israel Land Authority announced the confiscation of the land in the Sheikh Jarrah neighbourhood in occupied East Jerusalem. Dan Iloz, a Likud MP, told the paper that the “expropriation of land in Jerusalem is an important step, but not enough” and denounced UNRWA as “a hotbed for terrorism under a humanitarian guise”.
The announcement comes a day after members of the United Nations Security Council warned Israel against proceeding with a law, promoted by Iloz and others, aimed at curbing Unrwa’s ability to operate. The Knesset’s Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee approved two bills on Sunday which effectively aim at ending UNRWA‘s activity and privileges in Israel. Washington’s envoy to the UN, Linda Thomas-Greenfield, warned that the bill risked “hindering its ability to communicate with Israeli officials and removing privileges and immunities afforded to UN organisations and personnel around the globe”.
Israeli assault on UN peacekeepers sparks widespread condemnation
European leaders and China came out harshly against Israel’s targeting of UN peacekeepers in Lebanon. Two personnel from the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (Unifil) were wounded Friday after being targeted by the Israeli army in southern Lebanon, leading to global condemnation. Unifil’s headquarters in Naqoura was hit twice within 48 hours, according to a Unifil statement. Israel’s war on Lebanon has involved extensive air strikes targeting several parts of the country including central Beirut, Hezbollah leadership and its commanders plus a ground invasion of southern Lebanon. The Lebanese health ministry on Thursday said the death toll from Israeli attacks has hit 2,169, with 10,212 injured since 8 October 2023.
A statement put on Unifil’s website accuses Israel of deliberately targeting its personnel and positions. It mentions that Israel fired on UN positions in Labbouneh, hitting the entrance to the bunker where “peacekeepers were sheltering, and damaging vehicles and a communications system”. It added that Israel “deliberately fired at and disabled the position’s perimeter-monitoring cameras” and also, “deliberately fired on UNP 1-32A in Ras Naqoura, where regular Tripartite meetings were held before the conflict began”.
Bezalel Smotrich calls for Israel’s borders to extend to Damascus
Far-right Israeli Minister of Finance Bezalel Smotrich has drawn criticism for calling for Israel to expand its borders to Damascus in a recent documentary. In an interview for the documentary, In Israel: Ministers of Chaos, produced by European public service channel, Arte, Smotrich claimed that Israel would expand “little by little” and eventually encompass all Palestinian territories as well as Jordan, Lebanon, Egypt, Syr
Smotrich previously cited the concept at a memorial service for a Likud activist in Paris. When speaking from a podium decorated with a map of Israel that included Jordan, he claimed that there was “no such thing” as the Palestinian people. Aside from being the finance minister, Smotrich now holds significant powers over the occupied West Bank. At the end of February, the minister said that the state of Israel should “wipe out” the Palestinian village of Huwwara, after it was subjected to a violent rampage by Israeli settlers.
American Influence in the Middle East Is Evaporating Before Our Eyes
Washington’s efforts in the Middle East have been profoundly undermined by its breathtaking hypocrisy. At least one thing is now obvious in the Middle East: the Biden administration has failed abjectly in its objectives there, leaving the region in dangerous disarray. Its primary stated foreign policy goal has been to rally its partners in the region to cooperate with the extremist Israeli government of Benjamin Netanyahu while upholding a “rules-based” international order and blocking Iran and its allies in their policies. Washington’s efforts in the Middle East have been profoundly undermined by its breathtaking hypocrisy. After all, the Biden team has gone blue in the face decrying the Russian occupation of parts of Ukraine and its violations of international humanitarian law in killing so many innocent civilians there. In contrast, the administration let the government of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu completely disregard international law when it comes to its treatment of the Palestinians. This summer, the International Court of Justice ruled that the entire Israeli occupation of Palestinian territories is illegal in international law and, in response, the United States and Israel both thumbed their noses at the finding. In part as a response to Washington’s Israeli policy, no country in the Middle East and very few nations in the Global South have joined in its attempt to ostracise Vladimir Putin’s Russia.
The persistence of Secretary of State Antony Blinken in pressing Saudi Arabia, a key US security partner, to recognise Israel at a moment when the Arab public is boiling with anger over what they see as a campaign of genocide in Gaza, is the closest thing since the Trump administration to pure idiocracy. Washington’s pressure on Riyadh elicited from Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman the pitiful plea that he fears being assassinated were he to normalise relations with Tel Aviv now. And consider that ironic given his own past role in ordering the assassination of Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi. In short, the ongoing inside-the-Beltway ambition to secure further Arab recognition of Israel amid the annihilation of Gaza has America’s security partners wondering if Washington is trying to get them killed—anything but a promising basis for a long-term alliance.
Last week Al Jazeera released Investigating War Crimes in Gaza. The 81-minute documentary is a searing indictment of the treatment of those who always suffer most in war—women and children—during Israel’s retaliation for the horrid murders Hamas inflicted inside Israel a year ago this week. Israel’s initial ground attack failed to rescue all the Israeli hostages or to destroy the several hundred miles of the Hamas tunnel system. The ongoing air attacks have resulted in the indiscriminate killing of men, women, and children, day and night, in houses, apartments, and office buildings. Home to more than two million Palestinians, Gaza has been torn apart, with immense casualties from the bombings that have eventually left little sign of civilisation: no hospitals, universities, markets, restaurants, or civic life.
The war in Gaza has extended into the West Bank and now to Lebanon. The Israeli leadership, headed by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu with religious fanatics in charge of key ministries, has edged the nation into economic misery, and they continue a campaign of assassinations and bombings. Sirens sounded throughout Israel yesterday morning—a tragic anniversary—as a few easily intercepted missiles were fired from a still operating tunnel by a remnant of Hamas. Hezbollah’s much more formidable arsenal of missiles remains operational, and capable of striking deep into Israel. The Israeli Air Force struck what were described as Hamas targets last weekend in Gaza, and the IDF continues the air and ground war against Hezbollah in Lebanon. There has been fear of an Israeli attack on Iran in retaliation for Iran’s missile attack on Israel following Israel’s assassinations of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah last month in Lebanon and a senior Hamas official last summer in Tehran. Murder is in the air in the Middle East and there is no international leader—certainly no one in the Biden administration—with the standing and the will to keep it from happening.
West Bank Israeli settlers fundraise online for military equipment
Israeli settlers resort to multinational non–profit status and crowd–funding to purchase military equipment that is used against Palestinians in the West Bank. Heavily armed and openly coordinated across a range of online platforms, networks of connected fighters have emerged to secure and develop Israeli settlements in the Palestinian West Bank. Drawing on open-source intelligence (OSINT) methods, the findings of our ten-month-long investigation flesh out how Israeli settler militias in the occupied West Bank fundraised through NGOs more than $3.75 million since 7 October 2023. While the total amount of donations to these settler militias is likely to be much higher, it supplements more than NIS 47 mn ($12 mn) allocated to the Israeli Ministry of National Security in its 2024 budget for these militias. Some of the most violent settlements receive aid from Canada, the US and the UK for the purchase of military equipment. All this was made possible via the internet and gaps in non-profit and online platform regulatory enforcement across borders.
Germany will send more weapons to Israel soon, Scholz says
Germany will supply more weapons to Israel soon, Chancellor Olaf Scholz said on Thursday, after a significant drop in deliveries this year prompted opposition accusations that Berlin deliberately delayed the exports. “We have not decided not to supply weapons. We have supplied weapons and we will supply weapons,” Scholz told parliament at an event to commemorate the victims of the Oct. 7 Hamas attack, countering an accusation from opposition leader Friedrich Merz. The government had made decisions “that also ensure that there will be further deliveries soon,” the chancellor said.
Germany’s approvals for arms exports to Israel dropped sharply this year, with only 14.5 million euros’ worth granted from January to Aug. 21, according to data provided by the Economy Ministry in response to a parliamentary question. In 2023, Germany approved arms exports to Israel worth 326.5 million euros including military equipment and war weapons, a 10-fold increase from 2022, data from the ministry, which approves export licences, showed. Commenting on the fall in exports, the German government has said there is no arms export boycott on Israel, and export permits are issued case-by-case after careful review, taking into account international law, foreign policy and security considerations.
