Israel steps on the war accelerator. He pressed the knot over Gaza with a wave of attacks that caused 106 dead in 24 hours and, despite the … Alto El Fuego signed in November, also bombarded South Lebanon against Hezbollah’s objectives. He also threatened to place Iran in his spotlight if he does not cut his support for Yemen’s hutis and warned that he will continue his mission against this rebel group despite the fact that he has reached a truce agreement with Donald Trump. Tel Aviv, whatever the support of the United States, keeps its closed fist on the region.
The list of victims does not stop growing. The authorities of the Strip, controlled by Hamas, raise more than 119,000 the injured due to the offensive launched by Israel against the enclave to 52,750 to 52,000 after the attacks of the Islamist group of October 7, 2023.
The Prime Minister of Israel, Benjamín Netanyahu, has announced to the citizens of his country that the Hebrew army is on the “eve of a great entry into Gaza.” He wants to conquer the strip and keep it under his control. According to the spokesman for the Israel Defense Forces (FDI), the Brigade General Effie Defrin, the first objective is to recover the hostages still retained. Then, “the collapse of the Hamas regime, its defeat will come.” The last hope for this deployment not to occur is on the trip that Trump will make next week to Saudi Arabia, Arab Emirates and Qatar, according to the BBC. If the mediation of the US president does not bear fruit, Israel will continue with Gaza taking.
It is not the only front. The Hebrew aviation completed a large -scale operation on the Nabatieh region on Thursday, in the south of Lebanon, about 70 kilometers from Beirut. The Israeli army assured that the attack was carried out against an infrastructure of the Chií Hezbollah militia. «The objective were terrorists and access to tunnels. His underground framework has been useless, ”said a military source.
Tel Aviv’s armed forces denounced that these types of structures “constitute a flagrant violation” of the truce agreement between Israel and Lebanon “that entered into force on November 27. According to this commitment, the Hebrew troops should have retreated from southern Lebanon and Hezbollah should have abandoned the border area. The two are still on the ground.
Nor is the tension under the red sea. The Hebrew Minister, Israel Katz, claimed on Thursday the right of his country to defend himself from the attacks starring Yemen, who have conditioned maritime traffic in that area. The high of the fire sealed between this group and Trump does not condition the Israeli position. In fact, Katz charged this Thursday against Iran, the regime that finances the Yemeni militias. He warned Tehran that “he will receive the same treatment as Hamas and Hezbollah” unless the aggressions of the rebels cease.
They close dining rooms in the strip
In the middle of that war board, citizens who survive in Gaza are starving. Dozens of community kitchens closed their doors on Thursday due to the lack of supplies because of Israel’s blocking at the entrance of humanitarian aid into the strip. AMJAD AL-SHAWA, director of the Network of Non-Governmental Palestinian Organizations (Pngo), told Reuters that this involves the loss of between 400,000 and 500,000 free meals per day. «Today in Gaza everyone is hungry. The world must act to save people, ”he denounced.
Eviction and closure of three UN schools in Jerusalem East
Israel’s army broke out, evicted and closed on Thursday three schools of the United Nations Agency for Palestinian refugees in the Middle East (UNRWA) in East Jerusalem, including those located in the Suafat camp. The military forced students and teachers to leave enclosures to apply the closing order of six educational centers, which was announced a month ago and will last indefinitely. The agency, which denounced the arrest of one of its workers, regrets that this measure puts 800 minors in danger of running out of education.
