Israel has expanded its total ban on humanitarian supplies entering large areas of the Gaza Strip as part of its ongoing genocide, waged since 7 October, Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor said on Monday in a statement emphasising Israel’s use of starvation as a weapon against civilians.
During the early morning hours of December 2, the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) relaunched with full force their siege upon the Gaza Strip.
In press releases issued by the IDF, the entity claims that it is surrounding the city of Khan Younis where it is bombing and shelling residential areas causing more deaths and injuries among the Palestinians.
All civilization has disintegrated, not just Western civilization.
Planes of the Israeli Air Force delivered an air strike on the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in the central part of the Gaza Strip early on Friday, Lebanon’s Al Mayadeen television said.
According to the report, IDF fighter jets delivered a massed air strike on the healthcare facility, located in the city of Deir al Balah.
The Zionist occupation forces continued on Wednesday their attacks against the Palestinians and demolished a number of homes and facilities in the city of Quds and the city of Hebron in the occupied West Bank.
According to the Palestinian News Agency “Wafa”, the Zionist enemy forces demolished, Wednesday afternoon, part of the house of a citizen in the town of Silwan, south of the Holy Al-Aqsa Mosque, and facilities in the town of Hizma in occupied Quds.
A badly burned toddler screaming for the mother he doesn’t know is dead – and screaming because doctors do not have enough painkillers to relieve his suffering. An eight-year-old boy whose brain is exposed as bombing damaged parts of his skull. A teenage girl, her eye surgically removed, because every bone in her face is smashed. A three-year-old double amputee, whose severed limbs are laid out in a pink box beside him.
The “extremist” march at Al Aqsa Mosque complex in Jerusalem on Thursday evening was aborted after police asked participants to leave.
According to a police spokesperson, given the racist chants and protestors disobeying police, it was decided not to allow the continuation of the protest "to prevent friction and maintain public order in the place."
"The Israel Police will continue to allow freedom of expression and protest within the limits of the law, but will not allow the violation of public order contrary to the law," the spokesperson said.
The US White House Strategic Communications Coordinator, John Kirby, announced on Wednesday that the United States continues to oppose a permanent ceasefire in the Gaza Strip and supports a temporary ceasefire.
“We do not support a ceasefire at this time,” Kirby said. “We support the continuation of the ceasefire in specific areas and for specific purposes.”
He added that “these humanitarian vigils must be implemented in order to release the hostages.”
Nearly half a million Israelis have fled the occupied territories since the start of Israel’s brutal aggression on the besieged Gaza Strip early in October, a report says.
The Population and Immigration Authority estimated that around 470,000 Israelis have fled since October 7, and it is unclear if they will return or not.
"Therefore, there is a negative migration of about half a million people, and this does not include thousands of foreign workers, refugees, and diplomats who left” the occupied territories, Zman magazine said.
While Israel denies using white phosphorus in Gaza, evidence suggests otherwise.
Markings on the white phosphorus munitions photographed Oct. 11 indicate they were manufactured at Arkansas’s Pine Bluff Arsenal, the only remaining manufacturer of white phosphorus munitions in North America. You can see the photo in this recent report from the human rights group Amnesty International.
