The spokesperson for the Civil Defense in Gaza City, Mahmoud Basal, stated that the Israeli occupation is pressuring citizens in Gaza City with fire to force them to flee, despite their unwillingness to do so, describing their conditions as very harsh.

Basal confirmed that around 20,000 people have fled the city towards the southern Gaza Strip, noting that the occupation is using terrifying and frightening fire belts to compel citizens to leave the city.

He pointed out that he personally witnessed families returning from the central area back into Gaza City because they could not find a place or means of living, as there is no infrastructure or hospitals.

He denied the occupation's claims that the southern area of the strip is a humanitarian zone, stating that it is no different from the northern area, where Gazans in the south live under very harsh conditions.

Basal also highlighted the suffering of the displaced who left the city due to overcrowding and the poor condition of the vehicles they are using as a result of two years of war, as well as the deteriorating roads they are fleeing through.

The Israeli occupation army launched a series of violent airstrikes targeting the Tel al-Hawa neighborhood in the southwestern part of the city, continuing to demolish homes and residential buildings using explosive vehicles and robots in the northwest of the city.

According to Basal, the occupation army conducted a military operation in the Zeitoun neighborhood that lasted 27 days, during which it destroyed the city and completely wiped out its southern area.

He considered that what the occupation committed in the Zeitoun neighborhood is being repeated today in Tel al-Hawa, where the occupation is using robots intensively.

The Israeli occupation army announced on Friday the closure of Salah al-Din axis, which is the main artery for movement and transportation between the north and south of the Gaza Strip, to the displaced people heading from Gaza City and its surroundings.

In a statement, the army clarified that the closure aims to serve its military operations in the area, while also confirming that the Rashid axis (Sea Street) will remain the only available route for civilians to move towards the south of the Strip.

This measure comes amid ongoing military operations, as the army emphasized that it "will continue to operate with unprecedented and intense force against Hamas and other organizations" in the Strip.

The public prosecutor's office in Germany is expected to file charges today, Friday, against government officials and executives in arms companies 'for their role in inciting genocide, crimes against humanity, and war crimes against the Palestinian people.'

A group of organizations and lawyers in the initiative 'Justice and Accountability for Palestine' is preparing to file a historic criminal complaint with the German federal prosecutor in Karlsruhe, targeting 11 government officials and executives in arms companies in Germany for approving the delivery of weapons to Israel.

This complaint comes days after a report from the United Nations Independent International Commission of Inquiry, which concluded that Israel committed 4 acts of genocide as defined by the Genocide Convention, adding legal and international weight to the initiative.

Political analysts and former Israeli officials emphasized that the wave of sanctions and boycotts - which Israel is facing due to the war in Gaza - is leading it to become a "delegitimized state." They stated that the judgment of Israel is no longer related to what it says but rather to what it does.

Barak Betash, an international affairs correspondent for i24, mentioned that the European Commission has implemented measures against Israel, which include halting bilateral support from the European Union, except for civil society organizations and the Yad Vashem Foundation.

The European Union has also decided - according to the correspondent - to impose sanctions on extremist ministers and settlers who commit violence, in addition to suspending specific provisions in the trade agreements established between the two parties.

Keren Betzelil, an international affairs correspondent for Channel 12, commented on the European steps by saying, "We will become the modern-day Russia; today there was a discussion in the European Union about imposing actual economic sanctions on all of us."

She added that the sanctions will affect every individual in Israel, will increase the cost of living, and will reduce import operations in Israel, which she said relies on Germany and Italy, and if either one changes its position, Israel will fall under these sanctions.

According to the same correspondent, the boycott of Israel will not be limited to the European singing competition but will extend to sports clubs and other cultural and artistic events, noting that everything is linked to the continuation of the war on Gaza.

In his comment on what was revealed by the Telegraph that starting next year, Israeli officers will not be allowed to study at the Royal College of Defence Studies in London, former Ground Forces Commander Reserve Major General Guy Tsur said, "We are on the verge of becoming an illegitimate state because we are in a situation that many in the world and in Israel do not understand why the war continues."

He added, "It is difficult for me to justify the continuation of the war, and I do not want to weep by using anti-Semitism," calling for an end to the war and reaching an agreement.

For his part, Manuel Trachtenberg, one of the founders of the new Eizenkot party, stated that "Israel is in a silent emergency, not because there are armies crawling towards its borders, but because it has become a pariah state that is currently killing itself," and he called for an end to the war on Gaza to halt the harsh economic measures that are being prepared.

The Minister of Foreign Affairs of the occupying entity, Gideon Sa'ar, announced that complete security control over the West Bank is an existential condition, warning that without it, "the entire occupying entity will be in danger."

This extreme position comes as a consolidation of the occupation policy based on military force and the rejection of any political solution.

Sa'ar's statements came as a direct political exploitation of the occupying army's announcement regarding the dismantling of a "rocket cell" in Ramallah.

The extremist occupation Minister, Itamar Ben Gvir, has called for the immediate and complete dismantling of the Palestinian Authority. This serious escalation comes in the wake of the occupation army's announcement of the arrest of a "rocket cell" in Ramallah, in a move that appears to be a political exploitation of the event to impose a far-right agenda.

Ben Gvir issued his shocking warning, which amounts to a declaration of war on the Palestinian political entity, stating: "If we do not dismantle the Palestinian Authority in a timely manner, we will wake up too late as happened in Gaza." This statement carries a dangerous and direct comparison between the Palestinian Authority in the West Bank and Hamas in the Gaza Strip.

Ben Gvir's call represents a direct challenge not only to the Palestinians but to the entire international community, led by the United States and the European Union. These international powers consider the Palestinian Authority a key partner and cornerstone for any future resolution to the conflict.

Channel 12 Hebrew claimed that the occupation army arrested a Palestinian cell during a nighttime raid in the Ramallah area, alleging that it is 'the first cell concerned with the manufacturing and launching of rockets' from the center of the West Bank towards the settlements in the occupied West Bank.

Forces affiliated with the occupation carried out a nighttime raid targeting a workshop and homes in the Ramallah area, during which they managed to arrest members of the cell. The channel claimed that additional rockets ready for launch were found during the raid.

This announcement, if confirmed, represents a significant and dangerous escalation in the nature of Palestinian resistance in the West Bank. As of the time of preparing this report, no official comment has been issued by the Palestinian Authority or Palestinian factions regarding these allegations.

14 citizens were killed by the fire and shelling of the Israeli occupation in several areas of the Gaza Strip.

Medical sources reported that 5 dead arrived at Al-Shifa Medical Complex, three dead to the Baptist Hospital, while 5 dead reached Al-Awda Hospital, and one dead to Al-Aqsa Hospital.

Israeli occupation forces stormed the city of Nablus in the northern occupied West Bank early this Friday morning, and fired "Energa" shells at a house during their incursion into the city of Ramallah.

In Nablus, the occupation forces arrested 5 citizens after raiding and searching several homes, and local sources reported that the arrests included two released prisoners, along with others from the Balata neighborhood east of Nablus.

In the Ramallah and Al-Bireh governorate, the occupation forces deployed military reinforcements to the town of Sarda north of Ramallah, where they besieged a house within the town.

During the operation, the occupation forces fired live ammunition and "Energa" shells, resulting in parts of the house catching fire.

The occupation forces blew up large parts of the house after arresting one of the citizens inside.

Another force stormed the town of Beitunia west of Ramallah, arresting a young man after besieging his house, while raiding several shops and forcibly removing their doors.

The occupation forces raided a café on Rakeb Street, causing extensive damage.

In Bethlehem, the Palestinian Red Crescent Society reported that its medical teams dealt with the injury of a young man in the Dheisheh refugee camp, south of the governorate, after he was shot in the leg, and he was transferred to the hospital for treatment.

In Jenin, Israeli army forces carried out a campaign of arrests in the town of Burqin west of the city.

In a related context, the occupation army announced this Friday morning the arrest of more than 75 Palestinians over the past week in various parts of the occupied West Bank.

Alongside the ongoing genocide in Gaza, the Israeli army and settlers have intensified their assaults in the occupied West Bank, including East Jerusalem, resulting in the martyrdom of at least 1,042 Palestinians and the injury of about 10,160 others, in addition to the arrest of more than 19,000, according to the Palestinian government communication office.

With American support, Israel has been committing genocide in the Gaza Strip since October 7, 2023, resulting in 65,141 martyrs and 165,925 injured, most of whom are children and women, along with famine that has claimed the lives of hundreds.

Israeli occupation forces stormed the town of Burqin west of Jenin early this Friday morning and detained a number of citizens.

Local sources stated that the occupation forces stormed the town with several military vehicles, closed all its entrances, and raided a number of homes, searching them.

The sources added that the occupation forces detained a number of citizens and subjected them to field interrogation before releasing them. Among those identified were: Ahmad Al-Lutfi, Maysara Al-Antair, Muhammad Al-Arour, Ahmad Al-Wardani, Mustafa Al-Shalamish, Saeed Rabi Taleb, and Abu Ali Khalouf.

They also stormed the home of released prisoner Sultan Khalouf and detained his mother to pressure him to surrender.

It is worth mentioning that the occupation continuously storms Sultan Khalouf's home in search of him to arrest him on the pretext that he is wanted.

The world's attention is focused on the waters of the Mediterranean Sea, where the 'Humanitarian Fleet of Resilience' continues its perilous journey towards the Gaza Strip, in an attempt to break the suffocating siege imposed by the occupying entity.

With every nautical mile the ships cover, tensions rise and international warnings intensify, while the suspicious American silence raises questions about the existence of a 'green light' for an imminent attack.

In a notable diplomatic move, 16 countries issued a rare joint statement, clearly warning against any aggression that the occupying army may launch against the fleet.

Amid famine and bombardment, the Israeli occupation army announced on Friday morning the opening of Salah al-Din Street, the main artery in the Gaza Strip, to traffic until noon.

This announcement comes at a time when Palestinians are facing a devastating military escalation and a systematic starvation policy, raising serious concerns that this alleged "safe passage" may be a deadly trap.

On the 714th day of the genocide, the occupation forces are launching violent and widespread attacks on the city of Gaza in preparation for a full invasion, coinciding with the United Nations' official declaration of famine in the northern Gaza Strip.

The Algerian representative to the United Nations Security Council, Ammar Ben Jamel, stated on Thursday that the council's failure once again to reach a decision to cease fire in Gaza is "a disgrace for our inability to act against the genocide that is unfolding before our eyes."

This came in a speech following the Security Council's failure to pass a resolution to stop the fire in Gaza, after the United States once again used its veto power.

He considered the council's repeated failure to stop the genocidal war against the Palestinian people in Gaza as "a moment as clear as daylight; either stand up to stop the genocide or remain complicit in these crimes."

The Algerian representative began his speech by apologizing to the Palestinian people, saying: "O Palestinian brothers, forgive us, you in Gaza where the flames consume you and the rubble suffocates you, and the council has not been able to protect you and your women, where the Zionist entity has killed more than 12,000 of them."

He added: "The council has not been able to save your children, where the Israeli occupation has killed more than 18,000 children, and has also killed more than 4,000 elderly people."

He continued: "Forgive us for not being able to defend your journalists, of whom the Israeli occupation has killed more than 250."

Ben Jamel explained that the Security Council's failure to assist the Palestinians "is disturbing, as the Israeli occupation is protected, and due to international bias towards it, it kills Palestinians daily and no one moves a finger."

He confirmed, on the other hand, that "despite the failure to pass the resolution to cease fire in Gaza, efforts supporting the Palestinian people will continue until they achieve their rights to establish an independent Palestinian state."

Since October 7, 2023, Israel has been waging war on the Gaza Strip with American support, which international human rights organizations have described as "genocide," resulting in the deaths of 65,141 Palestinians and the injury of 165,925 others, most of whom are children and women, in addition to the displacement of hundreds of thousands and famine that has claimed the lives of 435 Palestinians, including 147 children.

This move comes at a time when U.S. allied countries are preparing to recognize a Palestinian state in a historic step that reflects a shift in positions within Washington.

Democratic members of the U.S. Senate introduced the first resolution of its kind on Thursday, urging the U.S. administration to recognize a Palestinian state, nearly two years after the outbreak of war in the Gaza Strip.

This step, led by Senator Jeff Merkley, comes amid a noticeable change in the positions of several U.S. lawmakers regarding the need to increase pressure on the occupying government to end the war and alleviate the catastrophic humanitarian crisis in Gaza.

Orthodox Jews opposed to the occupation organized a demonstration in New York City, protesting the participation of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in the 80th session of the United Nations General Assembly, which will begin next week.

According to Anadolu Agency, a group of Orthodox Jews launched a campaign through a website called "Israel Against Judaism," to hold a demonstration in front of the Israeli consulate building in Manhattan, New York.

It added that hundreds of Orthodox Jews gathered at the designated site, carrying signs with phrases such as "The number one enemy of the Jewish people is Netanyahu and Ben Gvir," "Anti-Zionism is not anti-Jewish," and "Stop forcing Jews to join the Zionist army."

The demonstrators also expressed their rejection of Netanyahu's upcoming visit to New York for the UN meetings, and they hung a large banner that read, "Netanyahu: You do not speak for us."

The agency quoted American anti-Zionist Rabbi David Feldman regarding Netanyahu's visit, saying, "He will mislead the world into thinking he represents all Jews and that the actions he commits are somehow acceptable within the Jewish religion."

Feldman added that everything Israel and Benjamin Netanyahu advocate "completely contradicts the Jewish religion and is a source of real shame for its followers."

He also described what is happening in Gaza as "unacceptable," expressing his deep sorrow over the practices of killing, looting, and crushing an entire people in Palestine.

With American support, the occupying state has been committing genocide in Gaza since October 7, 2023, resulting in 65,062 martyrs and 165,697 injured, most of whom are children and women, and famine that has claimed the lives of 432 Palestinians, including 146 children.

French President Emmanuel Macron hinted at the possibility of discussing sanctions against the occupation, should its military operations in the city of Gaza continue by government decision, affirming that recognizing the right of the Palestinian people to a state is the best way to isolate Hamas.

In an interview with Hebrew media on Thursday evening, the French president strongly criticized the military operations in the Gaza Strip, stating: "If the operation in the city of Gaza continues by government decision, we must discuss imposing sanctions."

Macron pointed out that the operations in Gaza "have resulted in a large number of casualties and injuries to the extent that they undermine the image of the occupation and its credibility" on the international stage.

The French president then shifted to discuss the situation in the West Bank, considering that the policy of building settlements there is clear evidence of the true intentions of the occupation.

He said: "Building settlements in the West Bank is evidence that the goal is not to dismantle Hamas but to eliminate the two-state solution," indicating that this policy directly undermines the chances of achieving a just and lasting peace in the region.

Macron emphasized several times during the interview his strategic vision for ending the conflict, asserting that the solution lies in the political path, not just the military one.

He confirmed by saying: "The right of the Palestinian people to a state must be recognized, and this is the best way to isolate Hamas," considering that providing Palestinians with real hope and a political path towards independence is the most effective way to withdraw support from armed factions and achieve security for all.

The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) renewed its call on Thursday for an immediate ceasefire in the Gaza Strip and for permission to deliver humanitarian aid.

UNRWA stated in a post on X platform, "Let us shift our focus in Gaza towards an immediate ceasefire and humanitarian aid."

Since March 2, Israel has closed the crossings leading to Gaza, preventing the entry of food supplies or humanitarian aid, which has plunged the region into famine despite relief trucks being piled up at its borders.

Israel sometimes allows the entry of very limited aid that does not end the famine, especially as most trucks are subjected to looting by gangs that the Gaza government claims are protected by Israel.

With U.S. support, Israel has been committing genocide in Gaza since October 7, 2023, resulting in 65,062 martyrs and 165,697 injured, most of whom are children and women, and a famine that has claimed the lives of 432 Palestinians, including 146 children.

The war on the besieged Gaza Strip has placed the Israeli occupation in international economic isolation, especially after some countries halted trade or imported products from settlements.

The "Russian Strategic Center for Cultures" website published a report discussing the possibility of Israel facing economic isolation that includes trade restrictions and symbolic sanctions from European countries and other trading partners.

The site stated in its report that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu issued an unprecedented warning about the future of the Israeli economy, confirming that his country faces growing economic isolation that may force it to undertake a comprehensive restructuring of its economy and rely on a self-sufficiency model.

The "Times of Israel" newspaper quoted Netanyahu as saying during a meeting held at the Ministry of Finance in Jerusalem on September 15: "Israel is living in a state of isolation," noting that the government "may have to adopt an economy based on self-sufficiency and adapt to a new reality that reduces reliance on foreign trade."

The site adds that Netanyahu emphasized that the top priority will be ensuring Israel's defense readiness, warning of the possibility of imposing restrictions on defense cooperation with foreign partners: "We may face a situation where our defense sectors are banned, and we must develop these industries locally, not only in terms of research and development but also by having the capacity to produce what we need within the country."

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu blamed demographic shifts in Europe, considering that the increasing number of Muslims there drives some European politicians to adopt more hardline positions toward Israel, leading to restrictions on trade cooperation with it.

According to official data, the percentage of Muslims in Sweden, France, and Austria ranges between 8 and 9 percent, while it exceeds 6 percent in Germany and the UK, and reaches over 25 percent in Cyprus.

However, the criticisms directed at Israel are not limited to Muslims; a broad segment of European public opinion, including citizens of Jewish descent, also participates in them.

In recent months, the Gaza Strip has witnessed widespread destruction due to Israeli military operations, with estimates indicating that up to 90 percent of housing has been destroyed. Israel has also launched airstrikes targeting the territories of countries such as Syria, Lebanon, Iran, and Qatar, which has expanded the circle of international criticism.

This situation has even led the most moderate European politicians to warn that Israel has surpassed the stage of "self-defense" and moved to policies described as aggressive, leading to a "humanitarian disaster."

Bloomberg reported earlier this year that European countries, including Germany, the UK, the Netherlands, and France, are considering imposing trade sanctions on Israel and restrictions on arms exports to it.

The site noted that Turkey has become the most prominent example cited by European politicians in their positions toward Israel, after Ankara took a series of escalatory economic steps against Tel Aviv.

Between October 7, 2023, and May 2, 2024, Turkey reduced its trade volume with Israel by about 30 percent.

On April 9, 2024, Ankara suspended the export of 1,019 goods to Israel covering 54 different categories.

Although Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan announced in the spring of 2024 that his country would completely halt trade with Israel, trade continued partially until the end of summer.

However, the Turkish stance escalated again on August 29 of this year, when Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan announced a complete cut in trade relations, stating: "We have closed our ports to Israeli ships, and we do not allow our ships to enter Israeli ports. I confirm that no other country has completely halted its trade with Israel as we have."

The site reported that Israeli airstrikes on Qatar on September 9 led to a new round of discussions within Europe about imposing sanctions on Tel Aviv.

During a session of the European Parliament in Strasbourg on September 10, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen stated that sanctions could be imposed on Israeli officials "who adopt extreme positions," as she put it.

She also announced, according to what was reported by the "Jerusalem Post," a "partial suspension" of the partnership agreement signed between the European Union and Israel in light of the situation in the Gaza Strip.

However, activating these sanctions requires the approval of at least 15 of the 27 EU member states, which may face political obstacles, as the newspaper indicated that ensuring this support is not guaranteed.

The site pointed out that despite the rising international criticism of Israeli policies, broad economic sanctions, such as disconnecting Israeli banks from the SWIFT system or freezing cash reserves or imposing a comprehensive ban on exports and imports, remain outside the realm of practical application at the moment.

The Ministry of Health in the Gaza Strip has reported 4 new deaths in the past 24 hours, resulting from famine and acute malnutrition, raising the alarm once again about the worsening humanitarian disaster in the besieged territory.

The Ministry of Health in Gaza announced that the total number of victims of malnutrition and drought has risen to 435 martyrs, a toll that reflects the extent of suffering experienced by the residents of the area.

The ministry clarified that among the total deaths, there are 147 children who died directly due to severe food shortages, a figure that highlights the devastating impact of the crisis on the most vulnerable groups.

The Central Bureau of Statistics stated that the number of citizens residing in the northern Gaza Strip as of 2025/09/16 is approximately 740,000 individuals out of 2.1 million individuals living in the Strip; which represents 35% of its population.

The "Statistics" added in a statement issued today, Thursday, that this number is subject to decrease at any time due to the ongoing fierce assault and forced displacement.

It pointed out that these figures also reflect a tragic picture of the structural changes that have affected the population distribution within the Strip, as the northern areas have transformed from being one of the main population centers to a renewed displacement hotspot, amid the absence of security and the lack of basic humanitarian services.

The "Statistics" noted that the northern governorates, as of October 7, 2023, included approximately 749,000 individuals in Gaza City, and about 444,000 individuals in Beit Hanoun and Beit Lahia. After January 2025, and with the return of some displaced individuals to their homes coinciding with the temporary ceasefire, estimates indicated the presence of more than one million residents/displaced individuals in densely populated tent areas, and in the remaining habitable buildings in the northern Strip.

It continued: Aerial images between September 4 and 15, 2025, showed that thousands of tents set up on empty lands among the ruins of Gaza City, along the coast, and in less developed areas in the north, have disappeared or significantly decreased in number.

Moreover, the large camps in the Sheikh Radwan, Beach, and Al-Rimal neighborhoods have almost vanished, reflecting the scale of the humanitarian disaster and exacerbating the displacement crisis. Despite some families' attempts to return to their original homes, the intensity of the attacks and ongoing invasion threats are pushing residents to be displaced again, making the population stability in the area extremely fragile and continuously changing.

The "Statistics" clarified that these estimates were based on actual data recorded before and during the aggression, in addition to supporting sources within the national statistical system, primarily Palestinian cellular communication companies, taking into account the severe instability affecting population movement.

An Israeli military analyst said on Thursday that the ground advance in the army's operation is proceeding slowly in the city of Gaza, significantly affected by the pace of Palestinian displacement from the city.

Doron Kadush, an analyst at the Israeli army radio, added that "the attacking divisions 162 and 98 are continuing to advance slowly from two directions."

For weeks, the Israeli army has intensified the bombing of residential towers and buildings in the city, in a policy aimed at forcing Palestinians to flee to areas in the southern Gaza Strip.

Kadush pointed out that "senior military officials refer to this phase as the reconnaissance phase."

He claimed that the army is "advancing gradually during this phase without penetrating deeply," alleging that Hamas fighters holed up in the heart of the city are retreating "without direct confrontation with the forces, as they study movement directions and plan further steps."

Kadush reported that "the scope of ground maneuvering is significantly affected by the pace of population evacuation," noting that the army delayed the entry of the 36th division for several days "due to the slow evacuation process."

He continued: "The 36th division was supposed to enter along with the first two divisions, but due to the slow evacuation, it was decided to postpone its entry, and with the increasing pace of evacuation, its joining is expected in the coming days."

The military analyst mentioned that the operations to displace Palestinians from the city "could have been expedited," pointing out that "sources in the defense establishment criticized the southern command for opening the coastal Rashid road only for evacuation, which caused traffic congestion that hindered the process, before another road was opened yesterday (referring to Salah al-Din Street)."

He claimed that "most of the fighters of the Gaza City Brigade affiliated with Hamas, about two-thirds, fled the city southward," heading to what he called "humanitarian areas in the southern Gaza Strip according to army estimates."

Regarding Hamas fighters, Kadush said that they "rarely roam in open areas; they are fortified, and many of them are underground waiting for Israeli army forces."

The Hebrew newspaper "Jerusalem Post" reported that the Israeli army stated that when the military operation against the city of Gaza began last month, its population exceeded one million, claiming that more than 400,000 people had been displaced after intense bombing targeted dozens of residential towers.

On Tuesday, the Israeli army announced that it "has begun a ground invasion of the city of Gaza," but field evidence and local sources confirm that no ground incursion has occurred.

According to evidence and sources, the army is intensifying its artillery and aerial bombardment and demolitions using explosive robots, to terrorize Palestinians and force them to flee as part of a genocide and displacement war.

The Israeli government acknowledged on August 8 that it approved a plan proposed by Netanyahu to fully occupy the Gaza Strip, starting with the city of Gaza.

The army began its attack on the city on August 11, launching from the Zeitoun neighborhood (southeast), in an operation later dubbed "Gideon's Chariots 2," which included demolishing homes using explosive robots, artillery bombardment, random gunfire, and forced displacement.

With American support, Israel has been committing genocide in Gaza since October 7, 2023, resulting in 65,141 deaths and 165,925 injuries among Palestinians, most of whom are children and women, and famine that claimed the lives of 432 Palestinians, including 146 children.

Medical sources announced that the death toll who have arrived at hospitals in the Gaza Strip since dawn today, Thursday, has risen to 30.

Twenty dead arrived at Al-Shifa Hospital, two dead at the Arab "Baptist" Hospital, one dead at Al-Quds Hospital, four dead at Al-Awda Hospital, and one martyr at Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital.

Since October 7, 2023, Israel, the occupying power, has been committing genocide in the Gaza Strip, resulting in 65,141 dead and 165,925 injured, most of whom are children and women.

The Attorney General of Spain, Álvaro García Ortiz, announced that the authorities in Madrid have opened an investigation into whether the Israeli military operations in the Gaza Strip constitute serious violations of international law.

The statement from the Spanish Public Prosecutor's Office clarified that the investigation aims to determine whether Israel's actions could fall under the categories of genocide or crimes against humanity, as stipulated in Spanish criminal law.

The statement said, "The Attorney General has issued a decree to form a working group to investigate violations of international human rights law in Gaza," with the aim of "collecting evidence and making it available to the relevant authorities, thereby respecting Spain's obligations regarding international cooperation and human rights."

It added that "this initiative taken by the Spanish Public Prosecutor's Office comes in response to the recommendations of the report from the independent international commission of inquiry established by the United Nations regarding the Palestinian territories, which urges state parties to cooperate with the investigation being conducted by the Office of the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court."

The statement noted that this step aligns with Spain's international commitments and its support for the precautionary measures ordered by the International Court of Justice in the case brought by South Africa against the Israeli occupation authorities for committing genocide in Gaza.

The decision was based on the Organic Law of the Judiciary, which grants Spanish courts the authority to hear crimes committed outside their borders if the accused are present on Spanish territory or reside there.

In 2024, the International Criminal Court issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant on charges of war crimes and crimes against humanity.

Spain is among the countries that joined the proceedings initiated by South Africa before the International Court of Justice, which accuses Israel of committing "genocide" in the Gaza Strip.

In May 2024, Spain recognized the Palestinian state, and other Western countries, including Britain, France, Australia, Canada, and Belgium, announced their intention to recognize Palestine during the upcoming meetings of the United Nations General Assembly this month.

Of the 193 member states of the United Nations, 149 countries recognize the Palestinian state declared by the Palestinian leadership in exile in 1988.

Amnesty International has revealed a list of 15 global companies that assist Israel in the crime of genocide and starvation against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, among other violations of international law by the occupation.

The list published by the organization today in a brief report includes the American multinational companies Boeing and Lockheed Martin, as well as the American software company Palantir Technologies. It also includes the Chinese company Hikvision, the Spanish manufacturer Construcciones y Auxiliar de Ferrocarriles (CAF), the South Korean giant HD Hyundai, the Israeli technology company Corsight, and the state-owned Israeli water company Mekorot.

The list also includes Israeli arms companies Elbit Systems, Rafael Advanced Defense Systems, and Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI). In this regard, Amnesty International's Secretary General Agnes Callamard stated, "It is time for states, public institutions, companies, universities, and other private entities to put an end to their deadly addiction to profits and economic gains at any cost."

A large number of celebrities and global stars have issued calls to support Palestine and stand in solidarity with it in the face of the genocide being committed by Israel for the past two years.

Among the celebrities are American singer Billie Eilish, and actors; Irish Cillian Murphy, American Joaquin Phoenix, and Spanish Javier Bardem.

The celebrities made their calls in a video shown before the 'Together for Palestine' event held in London on Wednesday, starting their words by mentioning the word 'Palestine.'

Actor Brian Cox, star of the series 'Succession,' said, 'We must tell the truth on behalf of the Palestinian people.'

British comedian Steve Coogan emphasized that 'it is important to raise your voice now, not after everything is over, now while events are happening.'

He added emphatically: 'Press your government, and support those who are conducting peaceful campaigns, demand a ceasefire, stop the killing.'

The video also featured Venus O'Connell, Penelope Cruz, Natasha Rothwell, Sharon Horgan, Benedict Wong, Peter Gabriel, Malala Yousafzai, and Ruby Kaur.

The event, which was streamed live online, raised donations allocated to organizations such as the Taawon Cooperation Association, the Palestine Children's Relief Fund (PCRF), and the Palestinian Medical Relief Society (PMRS).

Since October 7, 2023, Israel - with absolute American support - has been committing genocide in Gaza, resulting in 65,062 deaths and 165,697 injuries, most of whom are children and women, and famine that has claimed the lives of 432 Palestinians, including 146 children.

The Commission of Detainees and Ex-Detainees Affairs stated after its lawyer's visit to "Ofer" prison that the child detainees are living in extremely harsh detention conditions, lacking the most basic elements of human life, in a scene that reflects a systematic policy targeting Palestinian childhood and attempting to destroy its future.

The commission clarified in a statement issued today, Thursday, that the occupation is holding hundreds of children inside prisons, where they are thrown into overcrowded rooms and deteriorating environmental and health conditions, deprived of their right to education and medical treatment, and subjected to repeated physical and psychological assaults, in addition to the provocative policies of isolation and searches that are practiced against them daily.

It confirmed that the prison administration deliberately neglects their health conditions and deprives them of medical care, while providing them with poor meals, forcing them to live in an environment that threatens their physical and psychological growth. Many of them are also subjected to harsh interrogations and continuous coercion aimed at breaking their will.

The Egyptian capital, Cairo, hosted a special event on Wednesday evening organized by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Immigration, and Egyptian Expatriates, in collaboration with the Ministry of Social Solidarity, titled "Egypt's Response to the Humanitarian Catastrophe: Together to Keep Gaza Alive." This was in honor of the prominent humanitarian role played by the Egyptian Red Crescent in supporting the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip.

In his speech, the Minister of Foreign Affairs and Immigration, Badr Abdel Aty, affirmed that: "Egypt has been at the forefront of countries leading the humanitarian response since the outbreak of the crisis in Gaza, having provided nearly 70 percent of the total aid that reached the sector."

He explained that: "The Rafah crossing remained open from the Egyptian side to allow for the entry of aid and the evacuation of the wounded, until Israel targeted the Palestinian side of the crossing, which prompted Cairo to redirect aid through the Kerem Shalom crossing despite Israeli restrictions."

He continued: "Let us work together to keep Gaza alive, whether some like it or not, and Israel, no matter how powerful it may be, will not be able to uproot this valiant and steadfast people from their land," emphasizing that: "What is happening in the sector amounts to crimes of genocide due to a manufactured famine and a comprehensive siege; and that the goal is displacement and the liquidation of the Palestinian cause, which Egypt firmly rejects."

The minister also pointed out that: "Egyptian mediation is still ongoing to stop the bloodshed and reach a sustainable ceasefire," stressing that the political solution remains fundamental, through the implementation of the two-state solution and the establishment of an independent Palestinian state on the borders of June 4, 1967, with Jerusalem as its capital.

For her part, the Minister of Social Solidarity, Maya Morsi, clarified that: "Egypt's humanitarian efforts towards Palestine have been ongoing since 1948," noting that: "The Egyptian Red Crescent represents the national arm for delivering aid, thanks to a network of more than 35,000 volunteers."

Morsi added that: "Egypt has succeeded in delivering more than 570,000 tons of humanitarian aid since October 2023, including food, medicine, and medical supplies."

In the same context, the Executive Director of the Egyptian Red Crescent, Amal Imam, presented a visual display about the volume and quality of aid and the mechanisms for delivering it, while the program included a documentary film documenting testimonies from Palestinians about the impact of Egyptian efforts. The event concluded with the honoring of several Egyptian Red Crescent volunteers, in recognition of their pivotal role in supporting Gaza in the most difficult humanitarian circumstances.
