Israeli genocide in Gaza
105 days into the Israeli war on the Gaza Strip, the regime continues with its carpet-bombing campaign across the besieged Palestinian territory. In the latest such attacks, at least five people were killed in an Israeli airstrike on a residential building in Khan Younis, southern Gaza. Another 12 lost their lives in a strike at an apartment near Shifa hospital in Gaza City. The latest casualties bring to more than 180 the number of Palestinians killed in Israeli raids across Gaza over the past 24 hours. The raids were conducted under the cover of a near-total communications blackout. The overall death toll from the regime’s war has passed 24760. Meanwhile, a UN rights expert has said what Israel is doing in Gaza is a violation of international law, and is highly illegal.
ICC Gaza case
Mexico and Chile have referred Israel’s war on Gaza to the International Criminal Court. The two countries say the referral is because of escalating violence against civilians in Gaza, especially children. The Palestinian Foreign Ministry has welcomed the move by Mexico and Chile. The ministry said the referral confirms the ICC’s need to fulfill its mandate by deterring and prosecuting the most serious crimes. Last week, South Africa also presented a case at the International Court of Justice over the Gaza war. The case said, Israel is committing genocide in Gaza. It demanded the ICJ order an emergency suspension of the regime’s military campaign there. A large number of countries backed South Africa’s move.
Yemen hits US ship
The Yemeni army says it has targeted an American ship in the Gulf of Aden in response to US-UK strikes on the Arab country. Saree described as inevitable Yemen’s retaliation for the aggression by the US and UK. He added that any new strike on Yemen won’t go unanswered and unpunished. The US has confirmed the attack on its ship. The Pentagon says it was the third attack by the Yemenis this week on US-owned vessels in and around the Red Sea. That’s a crucial lane for international trade, where tensions have been spiking over the last two months. Yemen has been attacking Israeli-linked ships in retaliation for the regime’s genocide in Gaza. The tensions in the Red Sea have escalated further in the past week after the US and UK began airstrikes on Yemen, citing what they called threats to international shipping.
