The Israeli army said early Tuesday that its forces had killed 50 Palestinians and detained 180 others during its raid on the hospital.The Palestinian Foreign Ministry has stated that Israel initiated its invasion of Rafah"without announcing, to avoid international reactions and without waiting for permission from anyone".
Negotiations for a Gaza ceasefire and hostage release are progressing in Doha and a counter-proposal could soon be presented to Hamas, Qatar said. Several Palestinians were reported killed when an Israeli warplane struck a house in Gaza City, according to eyewitnesses. Mossad chief David Barnea"has left Doha," foreign ministry spokesperson Majed al Ansari told a regular briefing, adding that"technical teams are meeting as we speak".An Israeli offensive in Gaza's southern city of Rafah would result in major destruction and"atrocities" that have not been seen in the conflict, Qatar's foreign ministry spokesperson Majed al Ansari has said.
"According to the most respected measure of these things, 100 percent of the population in Gaza is at severe levels of acute food insecurity. That's the first time an entire population has been so classified," Blinken told a press conference in the Philippines where he is on an official visit. The motion did contain other provisions that included a weapons embargo on sales to Israel, an immediate ceasefire and sanctions on Jewish settlers in the occupied West Bank.British Foreign Minister David Cameron has expressed"grave concern" over the findings from an Integrated Food Security Phase Classification report on the risk of famine in Gaza.
Blinken will hold talks with Saudi leaders in Jeddah on Wednesday before travelling to Cairo on Thursday for talks with Egyptian authorities, spokesman Matthew Miller said in the Philippines. "A ground invasion of Rafah would be catastrophic and must not be allowed to happen," Christopher Lockyear said on X.0129 GMT —Twenty Palestinians have been killed in the early hours of Tuesday in Israeli air strikes on Rafah and central parts of Gaza, Gaza health officials said.
"We are no longer able to distinguish between the sounds of thunder and bombings,” Shaban Abdel-Raouf, a father of five, said via a chat application. Israel has killed several top leaders of Hamas over the years, only to see them quickly replaced with little apparent impact on the group’s operations. Its response came after South Africa asked the ICJ to issue emergency orders for Israel to step up humanitarian aid to Gaza to address looming starvation.
