Israel Gaza aggression

Months into the Israeli genocidal war on Gaza, the besieged strip’s largest city Khan Yunis has become the focal point of the regime’s airstrikes and shelling over the past several days. At least 210 Palestinians are killed and over 380 others injured in Israeli attacks across Gaza in the past 24 hours. El-Amal, al-Aqsa and Nasser hospitals in Khan Yunis are under Israeli siege amid bombardment of their adjacent areas. An International medical charity says the shelling has put many lives at risk. Palestinian fighters are still putting up stiff resistance to invading Israeli troops across Gaza. Meanwhile, Israeli airstrike has hit the Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza, killing 4 more children. On Wednesday, nine Palestinians were killed after Israeli tanks shelled a UN shelter housing thousands of displaced Palestinians. That attack on the camp has draws international condemnations. 

Gaza tragic situation

UN Humanitarian Coordinator for the Palestinian Territory James McGoldrick describes as tragic the situation in war-torn Gaza. Addressing reporters virtually after his recent visit to Gaza, he said Palestinians are in dire need of basic amenities. 

Yemen attacks US warships

The spokesman for the Yemeni army says the country’s armed forces have targeted a number of American warships with ballistic missiles amid growing anger over recent US airstrikes on the Arab country. A Danish shipping line, Maersk, has also confirmed the Yemeni attacks in the Gulf of Aden and the Bab el-Mandeb Strait. The company said explosions caused by missiles forced commercial vessels in the strategic waterway to turn around. The ships operated by Maersk's US-flag subsidiary were loaded with military supplies and were accompanied by US warships and destroyers. For over the past couple of months, Yemenis have been staging strikes against Israeli vessels or those bound for ports in the occupied Palestinian territories. The Yemeni army says its anti-Israeli operations will continue until the regime’s onslaught and siege on Gaza end.
