The Israeli occupation authorities have issued six tenders for the construction and expansion in favor of the settlements of 'Ariel' and 'Ma'ale Adumim', amounting to 4,000 new settlement units. This step comes as part of the ongoing occupation's efforts to expand settlements on Palestinian lands, further complicating the situation in the region.

The tenders include three tenders for the expansion of the new neighborhood 'Ariel West', where 730 new units will be built, in addition to three other tenders for the expansion of the 'Ma'ale Adumim' settlement. The largest tender is tender number 320/2025, which aims to build 2,902 new settlement units.

The plans for 'Ma'ale Adumim' were approved last July, while the plans for 'Ariel' were approved last May. This rapid issuance of tenders following the approvals raises questions about the occupation's intentions.

The Wall and Settlement Resistance Commission indicates that the attached map for the tender designated for 'Ariel West' shows that the site is more than two kilometers away from the 'Ariel' settlement. This means that the occupation is planning to establish a new settlement without announcing it.

These tenders are considered part of the ongoing policy of the occupation to expand settlements, which negatively affects the lives of Palestinians and increases tensions in the region. These policies contradict international law and are considered a violation of Palestinian rights.

Here is Gaza, here is the crime scene, but without punishment. The crime is complete in its elements and varied in forms, and the perpetrators alone do not change but change their masks; sometimes they are fascists, and at other times they are Nazis, and the description is the same; they are criminals.

The perpetrators are free, and their crimes are increasing and expanding, while decisions to arrest them and bring them to trial are suspended, and lawmakers and justice leaders are powerless. The poor world weeps, and others condemn and denounce, but the crime scene expands more and more.

It is filled with scenes of burned bodies in tents, and the remains of victims thrown on the roadside. Images of skeletal children with sunken eyes and swollen bellies, the moans and cries of infants, and the looks of mothers that warn of the impending death of their children.

Images of the throngs crawling towards securing a bag of flour, and the scene of that child trying to pick up a handful of flour lying on the ground, and images of the rush of those carrying empty pots in front of the 'charity kitchen' to silence the hungry mouths.

Images of the martyr doctors and journalists, and the sound of pots and spoons banging in Downing Street in front of the British government headquarters, and images simulating the crimes against humanity occurring in Gaza, which have filled the streets of the West.

All these images, scenes, sounds, and moans have reached the global conscience, awakening it from its deep slumber. The rulers and leaders of the world, both Arab and Western, were affected, taking to television screens and media platforms to defend their shaky images.

The leaders condemned and denounced with timid words what is happening, but the most important thing is that President Trump 'heard' that there are tragic scenes in Gaza, and he was 'told' that there is suffering, and perhaps his wife Melania was affected.

This neglect and disdain do not even happen in legends. It is the moral, human, and religious death of humanity, and the death of all laws; except for the law of the jungle, and the crushing of the strong over the weak.

They wanted a quick death for Gaza and its people, but their multinational arsenal failed; they turned to slow death, and their 'iron swords' and 'generals' plan failed with them.

Listen to the words of the fascist criminal Ben Gvir who said, 'There is no Palestine and no Palestinian people.' This statement reflects the extent of the contempt for Palestinian lives.

The leaders of the entity were alarmed by this late global awakening, and the isolation that the entity faced, to the extent that their press considered the recent recognitions by some European countries of the Palestinian state as a 'political tsunami.'

The change came as a result of many factors; the most prominent of which are the rising popular demands, the massive demonstrations witnessed in the streets of capitals, in addition to the intensification of the starvation siege.

The echo of the catastrophic report on food security in Gaza had a profound effect in stirring the global conscience, as it indicated with numbers the scale of the humanitarian tragedy that threatens the death of nearly 100,000 children.

On the Israeli home front, there is a decisive factor that pushed the Israeli government to announce a temporary daily ceasefire and allow for aid.

This internal movement expresses the fear of these individuals that their 'state' may enter a phase of collapse and downfall unless the humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza is stopped.

Time is running out, and Gaza is on the brink of death; it is the last call for the human conscience.

Writer Dalia Shindlin discusses in her article the consensus in Tel Aviv regarding the plan to occupy the Gaza Strip, noting that this consensus comes amid increasing global criticism of Israel due to the deteriorating humanitarian conditions in the region. She explains that Israeli leaders are facing global condemnations and threats of a partial arms embargo.

Shindlin points out that the Israeli government, led by Netanyahu, is under intense pressure from former military and intelligence leaders, as well as opposition leaders and intellectuals, due to the escalation of the war on Gaza. She emphasizes that the hostages, of whom about 20 are believed to still be alive, represent a major point of contention between the Israeli public and its government.

On August 8, the Israeli government decided to escalate military operations, leading to a complete occupation of Gaza. The government asserts that it will rescue the hostages by expanding operations, but polls indicate that only 28% of Israelis support this plan.

Polls show that there is a division in Israeli public opinion, with hostage families believing that this plan will lead to the death of their loved ones. This division reflects a general sentiment that the country has been hijacked by an extreme right minority, increasing overall discontent.

The writer also reviews that polls indicate the majority of Israelis do not empathize with the suffering of Palestinians in Gaza, considering that civilian casualties are a result of Hamas's actions. This points to a painful reality regarding how Israelis perceive the conflict.

Shindlin also addresses Netanyahu's political future, noting that there is a significant likelihood of him losing the upcoming elections. She clarifies that the current government faces severe criticism due to its policies, and there are increasing calls for new elections.

The writer asserts that opposition to Netanyahu does not necessarily mean a radical change in Israeli policies towards Palestinians, as many Israelis do not differ much from the current government on issues of occupation and Palestinian rights.

Shindlin indicates that centrist and leftist parties in Israel avoid discussing Palestinian statehood issues, reflecting a lack of a real alternative to the longstanding Israeli policies.

Shindlin concludes her article by emphasizing that the situation in Gaza will not change radically until the Israeli public and the world demand change, leaving the door open for the continuation of occupation and military escalation.

The State of Qatar, in an official statement, considered that the remarks made by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu regarding what he calls the "Greater Israel vision" represent an extension of arrogance and exacerbation of crises in the region. This statement came after Netanyahu's remarks in which he declared his strong attachment to a vision based on expansion and the occupation of more Arab lands.

The Qatari Ministry of Foreign Affairs indicated that these statements represent a blatant violation of the sovereignty of states, international law, and the United Nations Charter. It affirmed that the false Israeli claims will not diminish the legitimate rights of Arab states and peoples.

Qatar also called on the international community to stand in solidarity to confront these provocations that expose the region to further violence and chaos. It expressed its full support for all efforts aimed at achieving a just, comprehensive, and sustainable peace in the region.

In an interview that Netanyahu conducted with the Hebrew channel "i24," he stated that he feels he is on a mission on behalf of the Jewish people, emphasizing his strong connection to the Greater Israel vision. He clarified that this vision includes the occupied Palestinian territories and parts of Jordan, Lebanon, Syria, and Egypt.

It is worth noting that the term "Greater Israel" has been used since the 1967 war to refer to areas including East Jerusalem, the West Bank, the Gaza Strip, the Sinai Peninsula, and the Golan Heights. These statements raise significant concern in the region, as Qatar considers them part of an occupation policy that threatens regional and international security and stability.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of South Sudan denied on Wednesday the allegations that the Juba government was in discussions with the occupying state regarding the resettlement of Palestinian citizens from Gaza in its territory. The ministry confirmed in a statement published on its Facebook platform that it categorically denies these media reports.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs clarified that these allegations do not reflect the official position or policy of the government and urged all media outlets to exercise caution and verify information through official channels before publishing it.

The reports published by the Associated Press relied on six sources described as knowledgeable and indicated that the occupying state is discussing with South Sudan the possibility of relocating Palestinians from Gaza to its territory.

Following these reports, Hebrew media mentioned that Israeli Deputy Foreign Minister, Sharren Haskel, will begin a visit to South Sudan, where she will attend the first official visit of a government representative to this country.

The i24 Hebrew channel reported that Haskel's visit comes in the context of reports about Israeli communications with South Sudan regarding the transfer of Palestinians from Gaza to its territory.

The Jerusalem Post stated that an Israeli delegation plans to visit South Sudan to discuss the possibility of establishing camps in preparation for the relocation of Palestinians from Gaza.

Since October 7, 2023, the occupying state has been committing genocide in Gaza, including killing, starvation, destruction, and forced displacement, ignoring international calls and orders from the International Court of Justice to stop these actions.

The Israeli genocide has resulted in more than 61,000 martyrs and 154,000 injured, most of whom are children and women, in addition to more than 9,000 missing and hundreds of thousands displaced.

The blockade imposed on Gaza has continued for 18 years, leading to the destruction of homes for about 1.5 million Palestinians, leaving them homeless.

The occupying state clings to former U.S. President Donald Trump's plan for the forced displacement of Gaza Palestinians, which faces widespread Palestinian, Arab, Islamic, and international rejection.

Historically, the occupying state has occupied Palestine and lands in Syria and Lebanon, refusing to withdraw from them or establish an independent Palestinian state with East Jerusalem as its capital.

An Egyptian source confirmed that Hamas has shown its eagerness to quickly return to negotiations for a ceasefire and de-escalation, as part of the efforts being made to end the war in the besieged Gaza Strip.

A delegation from Hamas, headed by Khalil al-Hayya, met with the head of the Egyptian General Intelligence, Hassan Mahmoud Rashad, to discuss ways to advance de-escalation efforts in Gaza, where the movement emphasized the importance of these negotiations.

Egypt is working to intensify its communications with all concerned parties to reach a comprehensive ceasefire, paving the way for the end of the war that has been ongoing since October 7, 2023.

In a related context, Egyptian Foreign Minister Badr Abdel Aty announced that Cairo is cooperating with Qatar and the United States to return to the proposal for a sixty-day truce, which was raised in the last round of indirect negotiations.

The proposal includes a ceasefire for 60 days, with the release of 10 Israeli prisoners, in addition to the return of the bodies of 18 other prisoners, in exchange for the release of Palestinian prisoners and an increase in humanitarian aid.

Tel Aviv estimates that there are 50 Israeli prisoners in Gaza, while more than 10,800 Palestinians are held in Israeli prisons, suffering from harsh conditions.

Israel withdrew from indirect negotiations with Hamas after its stubbornness regarding withdrawal from Gaza, leading to a worsening humanitarian situation in the enclave.

Hamas has repeatedly announced its readiness to release Israeli prisoners in exchange for ending the war, but the Israeli government prefers partial deals to ensure the continuation of the war.

Since the beginning of the aggression, Israeli military operations have resulted in more than 61,000 martyrs and 154,000 injured, leading to a suffocating humanitarian crisis in Gaza.

The Commissioner-General of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA), Philippe Lazzarini, confirmed that the humanitarian situation in the Gaza Strip has reached catastrophic levels, with at least 100 children having died due to malnutrition and hunger. These figures reflect the extent of the suffering that children are experiencing under the difficult conditions facing the region.

Lazzarini pointed out that more than 40,000 children have been killed or injured as a result of Israeli shelling and airstrikes, highlighting the devastating impact of the aggression on children. He also added that 17,000 children have become unaccompanied or separated from their families, which increases their psychological and social suffering.

He explained that one million children in Gaza are suffering from severe psychological trauma, affecting their ability to study and learn. These figures reflect the profound impact of the aggression on the future of Palestinian children, as they are being deprived of their basic rights.

Lazzarini also noted that the Ministry of Health in the Gaza Strip recorded 8 deaths, including 3 children, due to famine and malnutrition in the past 24 hours. These figures reflect the tragic situation that the population is living under the imposed siege.

In his post on the X platform, Lazzarini called on the international community not to remain silent about what is happening to children in Gaza, emphasizing the need for urgent action to protect their rights and ensure their future. This call comes at a time when humanitarian crises in the region are escalating.

It is worth noting that Israeli occupation forces have been preventing aid trucks from entering the Gaza Strip since early March, having tightly closed the crossings as part of a systematic plan to starve the population, exacerbating the humanitarian situation.

The situation in Gaza requires urgent action from the international community, as children are the most affected by these crises. There must be an immediate response to meet their humanitarian needs and provide protection for them.

The Ministry of Interior and National Security in the Gaza Strip accused the Israeli occupation of sponsoring groups of thieves who are looting humanitarian aid trucks. This accusation comes amid the ongoing Israeli aggression on the Strip since October 7, 2023, which has resulted in the martyrdom of many civilians and the targeting of aid security personnel.

In an official statement, the ministry condemned the occupation's insistence on continuing the chaos in the entry of limited amounts of aid, pointing out that the occupation is committing massacres against tribal and civilian aid security committees. Recent airstrikes have resulted in the martyrdom of 11 aid security personnel.

According to the government media office, the occupation has allowed the entry of only 1,334 aid trucks out of the 9,000 trucks that were needed, meaning that only 14% of the actual needs of the Strip have been met. This situation exacerbates the suffering of Palestinians in the besieged Strip.

The Ministry of Interior clarified that the targeting of aid security personnel is part of the starvation engineering policy practiced by Tel Aviv, depriving tens of thousands of Palestinian families of access to food. The ministry called on the international community to pressure the occupation to allow aid to reach those who deserve it.

Reports indicate that famine in Gaza is causing deaths due to malnutrition, despite the entry of limited amounts of aid. The World Food Programme has warned that a third of Gaza's population has not eaten for several days, reflecting the catastrophic humanitarian situation.

Since the beginning of the aggression, Israel, with American support, has committed genocide in Gaza, resulting in more than 61,000 martyrs and 154,000 injured, in addition to hundreds of thousands of displaced persons. These figures reflect the scale of the humanitarian disaster faced by Palestinians in the besieged Strip.

The famine has claimed the lives of more Palestinians in the Gaza Strip today, Wednesday, as Israeli occupation forces continued to fire on those waiting for aid in several areas of the strip. The Ministry of Health in the strip announced the martyrdom of 8 people, including 3 children, due to famine and malnutrition within 24 hours, raising the number of martyrs to 235, including 106 children, since the beginning of the Israeli genocide war.

The Nasser Medical Complex reported the death of a child from Khan Younis due to contracting a rising polio disease. Dr. Mohammed Abu Salmiya, director of the Shifa Medical Complex, confirmed in an interview that there are 3 children facing the risk of death due to contracting the rising polio disease, and he called for the urgent entry of medications for this disease and other illnesses into the Gaza Strip.

Meanwhile, sources in Gaza Strip hospitals reported the martyrdom of 65 Palestinians due to Israeli shelling in several areas of the strip since dawn today, including 25 waiting for aid. A source at the Baptist Hospital confirmed the death of 12 Palestinians in an Israeli airstrike early today on a house in the Zeitoun neighborhood southeast of Gaza City.

The occupation army also committed a massacre against the Abu Hanidq family, killing 7 of them, including 5 children and a woman, and injuring others, after shelling targeted tents housing them in Tal al-Hawa south of Gaza City. This aggression reflects the continued policy of the occupation in targeting civilians.

On another note, a source in the ambulance and emergency services reported 4 dead and several injured in an Israeli shelling of aid security personnel in northern Gaza Strip. The Ministry of Interior and National Security in Gaza confirmed that the occupation insists on continuing the chaos in allowing quantities of humanitarian aid to enter, committing massacres against tribal security committees.

The ministry added that the occupation practices a systematic policy in targeting humanitarian aid security personnel, leading to increased suffering for the Palestinian people in the strip. It also confirmed that the occupation continues to support groups of thieves and thugs in intercepting aid trucks.

In the south of the strip, the central and northern areas of Khan Younis were subjected to airstrikes, artillery shelling, and gunfire from Israeli helicopters, exacerbating the suffering of the residents.

Dr. Mohammed Abu Afash, director of medical relief in Gaza, confirmed that the health system has become incapable of dealing with the current situation with the spread of several diseases, noting that the medical aid received is insufficient. The health sector recorded about 300 cases of skin diseases in one day, while the necessary medications for treatment are unavailable.

Since October 2023, the Israeli occupation army - with American support - has been waging a genocide war against the residents of the Gaza Strip, resulting so far in the death of more than 61,000 Palestinians and the injury of more than 154,000, displacing almost all the residents of the strip, amid unprecedented destruction since World War II.

The Hind Rajab Foundation and the Palestinian Center for Human Rights have filed a joint lawsuit before the International Criminal Court, accusing senior military and political leaders in the Israeli occupation of issuing orders to assassinate journalist Anas Al-Sharif, in addition to five other Palestinian journalists in the besieged Gaza Strip. This lawsuit comes as part of legal efforts aimed at holding the occupation accountable for its ongoing violations.

The lawsuit includes detailed information about the chain of command and decisions that led to Al-Sharif's assassination, as he was targeted outside Al-Shifa Hospital, a place known for his presence as a journalist. This incident has been documented as part of a broader pattern of targeting journalists in Gaza, where they are labeled as terrorists before being eliminated.

The evidence presented in the lawsuit is based on a documented pattern of assaults on journalists, where their reputations are tarnished by occupation officials before raids are carried out. Previous assassination cases of journalists such as Hussam Shabat and Ismail Al-Ghul have been reviewed, reflecting a systematic strategy to target media personnel.

The investigations follow the strike that targeted Al-Sharif, starting from the surveillance of a drone camera, where a chain of responsibility has been identified that includes prominent military leaders in the occupation army. Among them are Chief of Staff Eyal Zamir, Major General Tomer Bar, Major General Yaniv Asor, in addition to Colonel Avichai Adraee, who has been accused of leading a smear campaign against Al-Sharif.

On the political front, Prime Minister of the occupation Benjamin Netanyahu has been mentioned, who is accused of supporting a strategy to eliminate journalists as part of the ongoing aggression against Gaza. It has been revealed that this strategy includes prior smear campaigns targeting journalists before carrying out assassination operations.

The lawsuit before the International Criminal Court accuses the mentioned individuals of committing war crimes, including premeditated murder and genocide, and demands the issuance of arrest warrants against the mentioned officials. It also calls for expanding Netanyahu's arrest warrant to include crimes against journalists.

The head of the Hind Rajab Foundation, Diab Abu Jahjah, confirmed that this lawsuit is not merely a symbolic action, but reflects the atrocity of Anas Al-Sharif's assassination and the occupation's contempt for human life. He emphasizes that this case must be legally addressed and not go unpunished.

In a controversial statement, the Israeli occupation government's Foreign Minister, Gideon Sa'ar, confirmed that his government will not allow the establishment of a Palestinian state with East Jerusalem as its capital. This came during a meeting with American media, where Sa'ar considered that the establishment of a Palestinian state would be tantamount to suicide for Israel.

Sa'ar added that countries supporting the establishment of a Palestinian state should implement that in their own territories, indicating that his government will not allow the application of the two-state solution. He considered that establishing a Palestinian state within the 1967 borders would put Israeli population centers in severe danger.

The Foreign Minister claimed that such a step would return Israel to defensible borders, which poses an existential threat. He also alleged that a Palestinian state in the heart of the land of Israel would be a solution for those seeking to annihilate them.

In the context of his remarks, Sa'ar called on major countries like France and Canada to establish a Palestinian state in their territories if they wish to do so, pointing out that they have very ample spaces for that, but in the land of Israel, this will not happen.

It is noteworthy that Sa'ar's statements come at a time when several countries, including France, Canada, Britain, Portugal, Australia, and New Zealand, have confirmed their intention to recognize the state of Palestine during the upcoming United Nations General Assembly meetings in September.

The Hebrew newspaper Maariv published a report on what broadcaster Yaakov Bardugo discussed on Channel 14, where he talked about the future of the Israeli aggression in the Gaza Strip. He confirmed that the mediators are talking among themselves, and that there is currently no agreement, referring to President Trump's statements on the matter.

Bardugo added that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu confirmed in a previous press conference that there is no agreement, and that the matter has already been issued. He raised questions about the action plan for occupying Gaza, noting that there are discussions about a time frame ranging from one day to two months.

He also indicated that the war will end by October 14, but he expected that to happen much earlier, either through Hamas's surrender or the occupation of the strip. He mentioned that Chief of Staff Zamir will launch the operation in Gaza in the coming weeks.

In a related context, Bardugo spoke about the new Abraham Accords, noting that there are seven new agreements in response to the previous agreements, and that Netanyahu is likely to be at the United Nations between September 23 and 24.

It is worth noting that the Israeli aggression on the besieged Gaza Strip since October 7, 2023, has resulted in a genocide, with the number of Palestinian martyrs reaching 61,599, and 154,088 injured, in addition to more than 9,000 missing.

The aggression has also led to the displacement of hundreds of thousands of Palestinians and created a famine that resulted in the deaths of 227 people, including 103 children, reflecting the scale of the humanitarian disaster faced by the residents of the strip.

The Palestinian Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced on Wednesday that the number of Palestinian martyrs who have been killed by Israeli settlers since the beginning of 2025 has reached 10 martyrs. This announcement came following the martyrdom of the young man Thameen Khalil Reda Dawabsha (35 years old) who was shot by settlers in the town of Duma, located south of Nablus in the occupied West Bank.

In its statement, the Palestinian Foreign Ministry condemned what it described as the 'execution crime' of Dawabsha, indicating that this crime was premeditated and intentional. The ministry emphasized the seriousness of the escalation in settler terrorism and their crimes, noting that the intensity of assaults using live ammunition aimed at killing Palestinians has increased.

The Foreign Ministry also added that it is monitoring the crimes of genocide, displacement, annexation, and settler terrorism with countries and components of the United Nations and its specialized councils. It called for the imposition of deterrent international sanctions on the occupying state to compel it to stop the assaults of its settlers.

The Palestinian Ministry of Health reported that Dawabsha was martyred by settlers' gunfire, while eyewitnesses reported clashes between citizens and settlers who attacked the outskirts of the town and opened fire. These assaults are not new, as Duma and other Palestinian towns are subjected to repeated attacks by settlers.

Last July, the Wall and Settlement Resistance Commission documented 466 assaults by settlers, resulting in the martyrdom of 4 Palestinians and the forcible displacement of two Bedouin communities comprising 50 families. Palestinians say that the occupation army and settlers are intensifying their crimes that pave the way for the annexation of the occupied West Bank.

Since October 7, 2023, the number of Palestinian martyrs killed by the occupation army and settlers has risen to at least 1,014 martyrs, in addition to about 7,000 injured and 18,500 detained. The occupying state continues to commit genocide in the besieged Gaza Strip, ignoring international calls.

The Israeli genocide in Gaza has led to the martyrdom of 61,722 Palestinians, and 154,525 injured, including children and women, in addition to more than 9,000 missing and hundreds of thousands displaced. These conditions reflect the ongoing Israeli occupation of Palestine and its refusal to withdraw, complicating the humanitarian and political situation further.

The Israeli occupation authorities notified today, Wednesday, of the demolition and evacuation of more than 13 residential, agricultural, and industrial facilities in the Wadi al-Hawd area of the town of Al-Eizariya, southeast of Jerusalem. These notifications come as part of the ongoing occupation policy to displace Palestinians from their lands.

The Jerusalem Governorate clarified in a statement that these notifications are part of a plan to pave the way for the so-called "Life Line Road" colonial project, which aims to expand Israeli settlements at the expense of Palestinian lands.

The statement indicated that this step came just one day after the distribution of about 14 similar notifications in the Wadi al-Jamal and Jabal Baba areas, which increases the severity of the threats facing the town. These measures reflect the occupation's policy of isolating Palestinian areas from one another.

The Wall and Settlement Resistance Commission also reported that the occupation authorities issued 33 demolition notifications last month, with these notifications concentrated in the Bethlehem Governorate with 19 notifications, Hebron with 6 notifications, and 3 notifications each in Qalqilya and Tubas, and one notification each in Tulkarem and Jerusalem.

These measures are part of a comprehensive Judaization plan aimed at separating Wadi al-Jamal and Jabal Baba from the town of Al-Eizariya and completely isolating it, threatening to sever the geographical connection between Jerusalem and the West Bank.

The occupation authorities continue to implement their colonial policies, contributing to the worsening humanitarian and economic conditions in the Palestinian areas and increasing the suffering of the local population.

Global newspapers and websites have addressed the latest developments in the Israeli war on Gaza, focusing on the assassination of journalists and the ongoing policy of starvation in the region. These events have sparked a wave of global protests against the war, which have been met with repression from some Western governments.

The British Independent newspaper stated in its editorial that "Israel kills journalists to stifle freedom of expression, and the truth, as they say, is the first casualty of war." Israel has unprecedentedly prevented international journalists from covering the conflict in Gaza, leading to accusations of war crimes by the International Criminal Court.

The article also noted that the term "genocide" is increasingly used against Israel due to the deprivation of food and medicine for the residents of Gaza, reflecting the catastrophic humanitarian situation in the region.

In her article in the New York Times, Shira Evron, director of research at the Israeli Policy Forum, said that images of starving children in Gaza have captured the world's attention, but the narrative within Israel is different, focusing on other issues.

Evron added that "Israel is required to change its approach as it is responsible for creating this crisis, and its continued deliberate neglect will exacerbate the damage in Gaza and increase Israel's regional and international isolation."

On the other hand, former U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken wrote in the Wall Street Journal that the decision by France, Britain, Canada, and Australia to recognize a Palestinian state in September is "morally right and reflects a global consensus."

Blinken claimed that unconditional recognition of Palestine would not result in a Palestinian state or end the suffering in Gaza, emphasizing the need for recognition of a Palestinian state to be accompanied by security guarantees for Israel.

Writer Andy Beckett condemned the British government's harsh treatment of pro-Palestinian protests in an article for the Guardian, noting that the repression of protest movements and mass arrests in London demonstrate a dangerous trend toward silencing voices.

Beckett pointed out that "there is a double standard where peaceful protests in the West are suppressed, while brutal massacres in Gaza are overlooked, showing a blatant political and moral bias."

The Palestinian Foreign Minister, Farisin Agabkian, stated that the United States' use of the veto power in the Security Council paralyzes its role and prevents it from taking any serious steps to end the genocide being perpetrated by the occupying state against the Gaza Strip. This was during a press conference held at the Palestinian Foreign Ministry headquarters in Ramallah.

Agabkian added that the American veto represents a real obstacle to international justice, as it provides the Israeli occupation with political cover to continue its aggression without accountability. She pointed out that the veto "paralyzes" the Security Council's role and prevents it from taking any serious steps to end the war.

The minister noted that the Palestinian people are also being killed "in the silence of the world and with a policy of double standards." She emphasized the necessity for countries to act outside the framework of the Security Council, calling for the activation of other legal pathways such as the International Criminal Court, in addition to political and economic pressure through imposing sanctions on the occupation.

Agabkian continued: "The war can be stopped if there is a global political will. We hope it will end soon." She affirmed that the occupying state continues to rebel against international law and considers itself above the law.

The minister indicated that there are no direct communications with the United States, but she stressed the importance of the Palestinian voice being heard by U.S. President Donald Trump. She added: "If they want peace in the region, they must recognize the right of the Palestinian people to establish their state, and without that, there will be no peace in the region."

Agabkian addressed the statements of some Hamas members regarding their unwillingness to participate in governance after the war, asserting that "the day after the war will be Palestinian," as proposed by Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas.

She emphasized the rejection of the occupying state appointing any figure to manage the Gaza Strip, stressing that the legal authority over Gaza belongs to the State of Palestine. She spoke about the decision of the Israeli security cabinet "the cabinet" to fully occupy the Gaza Strip, considering this decision reveals the goals of the occupation.

She clarified that the occupation seeks to turn the Strip into an unlivable area and forcibly displace Palestinians. She pointed out that the humanitarian situation in Gaza has significantly deteriorated, with 50,000 Palestinians living today in one square kilometer without infrastructure.

Agabkian affirmed that the Palestinian leadership is primarily seeking to stop the genocide and striving to establish a Palestinian state in the West Bank, including East Jerusalem and the Gaza Strip, along the 1967 borders, living in security and peace alongside the occupying state.

Since October 7, 2023, the occupying state, with American support, has been committing genocide in Gaza, including killing, starvation, and destruction, ignoring all international calls. This genocide has left thousands of martyrs and injured, necessitating urgent action from the international community.

The Haaretz newspaper seeks to analyze the statements of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu regarding his plan to control the Gaza Strip, noting that Netanyahu uses softening language to minimize the damage caused by his military plan. The newspaper clarifies that Netanyahu promotes the idea that his plan is not a complete occupation of Gaza, but is limited to the city of Gaza only.

In his statements, Netanyahu confirmed that he aims to hand over the civil administration of Gaza to 'Arab forces', indicating that neither Hamas nor the Palestinian Authority will take over governance in Gaza. However, Haaretz believes that these statements are nothing but deception, as history suggests that Israel may act in a completely different manner.

The newspaper asserts that there is ample evidence, and that Netanyahu's statements about this plan being temporary and limited are not true. According to the newspaper, Israel seeks to maintain security and military control in Gaza while offering civil control to another party, raising questions about the intentions of the occupation.

When asked about Israel's intention to control Gaza, Netanyahu replied that he 'intends to do so', which increases doubts about his plan. The newspaper also points out that no Arab state is willing to take on the role of ruler in Gaza, making it difficult to believe Netanyahu's claims.

Haaretz discusses the gap between Netanyahu's statements in English and Hebrew, where he appears more balanced and calm in English, while in Hebrew he shows annoyance and impatience. This reflects the tension surrounding his plan.

The newspaper also reviews the history of the Israeli occupation, noting that Israel has not stopped at certain borders, but has transformed temporary seizure operations into permanent occupation, making it hard to believe that control over the city of Gaza will be temporary.

Haaretz concludes by emphasizing that the false dichotomy between security and civil control is merely a lie, and that the future will be painful if the statements of the Israeli government are subjected to the scrutiny of reality.

The Ambassador of the People's Republic of China to the State of Palestine, Zheng Jiqin, today, Wednesday, signed the annual grant for the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) amounting to 1.5 million US dollars. The agreement was signed at the agency's headquarters in the Jordanian capital, Amman.

Zheng explained that the Chinese government has consistently provided assistance to support UNRWA in fulfilling its mandate. China has not only provided cash and medical aid to the Gaza Strip, the West Bank, and other areas of UNRWA's operations but has also increased its annual donation to UNRWA.

Zheng reaffirmed the Chinese government's steadfast position in supporting the work of UNRWA since its establishment in the 1940s, pointing out China's continuous support for Palestine in reaching a just and comprehensive solution to the Palestinian issue.

Zheng noted China's appreciation for the services overseen by the agency, which are provided to nearly 6 million Palestinian refugees in the West Bank, Gaza Strip, and in the diaspora. He emphasized the importance of international support for the Palestinian side.

Zheng called on the international community to increase material and medical support for the Palestinian side through the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees, stressing that the difficult humanitarian conditions faced by the Palestinian people cannot be ignored.

Zheng confirmed that China will remain a loyal friend to the Palestinian people, steadfastly supporting their just demands and any efforts made to achieve a comprehensive, just, and lasting solution to the Palestinian issue, based on the two-state solution.

Israeli media discussed the shortage of the army's personnel and equipment, as more than 50,000 soldiers have sought psychological help. Military affairs correspondent Nir Dvori from Channel 12 pointed to the significant gaps the army is facing, primarily the shortage of soldiers, with 10,000 soldiers available, including 7,000 combatants and 3,000 support personnel.

The correspondent also noted gaps in the operational readiness of tanks and armored vehicles, in addition to a shortage of spare parts. He explained that there is a ban on arms exports, making it difficult to operate everything at full capacity after 22 months of fighting.

According to Channel 12, the prolonged war in the besieged Gaza Strip has resulted in injuries to more than 18,900 soldiers and security personnel, of whom 10,000 are facing psychological issues. More than 50,000 soldiers in regular and reserve forces sought help from the "Eran" committee for psychological services last year.

Statistics show that the most common cases are feelings of isolation, followed by recurrent depression and psychological crises. Others have turned to the committee due to trauma and personal relationship problems.

In terms of employment, reserve soldiers are the ones paying the price, as one-third of soldiers and their spouses reported being affected and referred to unpaid leave or being fired from their jobs. The channel reported that 72% of freelancers said their work situation has deteriorated.

In a related context, Channel 12 reported that the anti-Israel campaign is escalating, with Paris becoming more aggressive towards Israel, starting from damaging El Al's offices to an air traffic controller calling for the liberation of Palestine.

Reports indicate that there is a diplomatic tsunami wave against Israel, joined by celebrities like Madonna and the band "U2." Madonna wrote a post calling on the Pope to go to Gaza to help children facing the risk of famine.

The band "U2" also issued a joint statement through their official website, expressing their shock at what is happening in Gaza and directing severe criticism at the government of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

The Israeli occupation government’s Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, announced that residents of the Gaza Strip wishing to leave the territory will be allowed to emigrate abroad during and after the fighting. This announcement comes at a time when the genocide against Palestinians has been ongoing for 22 months.

During an interview with the Hebrew channel 'i24', Netanyahu mentioned that his government is in contact with countries that could host the people of Gaza, but he refused to disclose the names of these countries. He confirmed that the step includes allowing civilians to leave the combat zones within Gaza first and then leave the territory.

Netanyahu pointed out that millions of people left Syria due to the war, as well as in Ukraine and Afghanistan, questioning: 'Why should Gaza be closed?'. The Israeli blockade on the Gaza Strip for 18 years has displaced about 1.5 million Palestinians out of approximately 2.4 million.

Netanyahu also emphasized that Israel is in talks with other countries to receive Palestinians from Gaza, as the Associated Press reported that Israel is discussing with South Sudan the possibility of 'transferring' Gaza Palestinians there.

The occupation adopts former U.S. President Donald Trump's plan for the forced displacement of Palestinians, but faces widespread Arab, Islamic, and international rejection due to its violation of international and humanitarian law.

For decades, the occupying state has occupied Palestine and lands in Syria and Lebanon, refusing to withdraw from them or establish an independent Palestinian state with East Jerusalem as its capital, based on the borders prior to the 1967 war.

In the interview, Netanyahu spoke about his connection to what he called the 'Greater Israel Vision', which relies on expansion and the occupation of more Arab lands and the displacement of Palestinians.

When asked if he feels he is 'on a mission on behalf of the Jewish people', Netanyahu replied that he is on a mission of generations, affirming his strong connection to the Greater Israel Vision, which includes the occupied Palestinian territories and parts of Jordan, Lebanon, Syria, and Egypt.

The Palestinian Ministry of Health in the Gaza Strip announced on Tuesday that the death toll from the Israeli aggression, which began on October 7, 2023, has risen to 61,722 dead and 154,525 injured. This statement was made in the ministry's daily statistical report.

In the past 24 hours, hospitals in the Gaza Strip received 123 dead and 437 new injuries, reflecting the ongoing escalation and aggression against civilians in the besieged enclave.

Since the resumption of Israeli aggression on March 18, 2023, the death toll has risen to 10,201 dead and 42,484 injuries, indicating the scale of the humanitarian disaster faced by the Palestinians.

The ministry also reported that the death toll among those waiting for aid has risen since May 27, 2023, to 1,859 dead and more than 13,594 injuries, following the killing of 21 Palestinians and the injury of 185 in the past 24 hours.

It is noteworthy that Israel has been implementing a plan for distributing aid since May 27, which Palestinians describe as 'death traps.' This plan is supported by Israel and the United States but rejected by the international community.

The Ministry of Health also reported the death of 8 Palestinians in the past 24 hours due to complications from famine and malnutrition, including 3 children, raising the total number of famine victims to 235 dead, among them 106 children.

The ongoing Israeli aggression since October 7, 2023, which is supported by the United States, includes genocide involving killing, starvation, destruction, and forced displacement, ignoring international calls and orders from the International Court of Justice to stop these actions.

In addition to the dead and injured, there are more than 9,000 missing persons and hundreds of thousands of displaced individuals, further complicating the humanitarian situation in the besieged Gaza Strip.

United Nations experts expressed their dismay today at the targeted destruction of the healthcare system in Gaza by Israeli occupation forces, considering this destruction to be a form of "medical genocide." The experts accused the occupation of deliberately attacking and starving healthcare workers, paramedics, and hospitals, with the aim of eliminating medical care in the besieged territory.

The Special Rapporteur on the right to health, Taling Mofokeng, and the Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the occupied Palestinian territory since 1967, Francesca Albanese, stated that as UN experts, they cannot remain silent regarding the crimes being committed in Gaza. They affirmed that what is happening is ongoing genocide and medical extermination, contributing to the creation of deliberate conditions for the destruction of Palestinians.

The experts warned that the apartheid system targeting Palestinians in the occupied territory and the ongoing attacks on the healthcare system in Gaza are exhausting the last remaining resources in the besieged and devastated sector. They noted that healthcare workers have been subjected to detention and torture, and are now, like the rest of the population, starving.

The United Nations also reported that healthcare workers have fainted due to food shortages, hindering their ability to perform their duties and endangering the care and necessary treatment conditions for their patients. The experts emphasized that ignoring the crimes committed by Israel in Gaza shows that Palestinian lives are worthless.

They called on the international community to end the massacre and allow the people of Gaza to live with dignity, free from occupation and apartheid. They stressed that the failure of states to fulfill this duty imposes a heavy price on the besieged Palestinians in Gaza.

In conclusion, they called for a ceasefire as a first step towards holding the Israeli occupation accountable, to save what remains of the healthcare system in Gaza and prevent the extermination of its population.

Dozens of Jewish settlers stormed the courtyards of the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque in occupied Jerusalem on Wednesday, under heavy protection from the occupation police. This incursion comes at a sensitive time as tensions in the region are escalating.

The Islamic Waqf Department in Jerusalem stated in a statement that the incursion included settlers conducting suspicious tours in the courtyards of the sanctuary, in addition to performing provocative Talmudic rituals, which heightened tensions between Palestinian worshippers and settlers.

The statement added that the occupation police secured the settlers' incursions while simultaneously preventing Palestinian worshippers from entering Al-Aqsa Mosque through its various external gates, reflecting the occupation's policy of tightening restrictions on Palestinians.

This incursion coincides with an increase in assaults on Islamic holy sites, as Al-Aqsa Mosque is considered an important symbol for Palestinians and forms an essential part of their religious and cultural identity.

It is worth noting that these incursions are part of the occupation's policy aimed at changing the status quo at Al-Aqsa Mosque, raising concerns among Palestinians and the international community.

These assaults continue amid international silence, reflecting the inability to protect Palestinian rights and Islamic holy sites.

The Israeli occupation's airstrikes have claimed more martyrs on a new day of genocide in the Gaza Strip, where 29 Palestinians have been killed since dawn on Wednesday. These airstrikes come at a time when the suffering of Palestinians in the besieged enclave is increasing.

A source at the Baptist Hospital confirmed the martyrdom of 12 Palestinians in an Israeli airstrike that targeted a house in the Zeitoun neighborhood southeast of Gaza City. This strike adds to a series of assaults targeting civilians, resulting in more martyrs.

The occupation army committed a massacre against the Abu Hanidq family, where 7 of its members were killed, including 5 children and a woman. This bombardment targeted tents sheltering them in Tal al-Hawa, south of Gaza City, reflecting the scale of the atrocities committed by the occupation.

The Al-Awda Hospital also confirmed the death of 5 Palestinians and the injury of 10 others in the Israeli occupation's targeting of aid seekers in the central Gaza Strip. These assaults reflect the occupation's disregard for human rights and the deteriorating humanitarian conditions.

The Nasser Medical Complex documented the martyrdom of several Palestinians and the injury of others by the fire of occupation forces near aid centers in Rafah, southern Gaza. These events highlight the catastrophic situation faced by Palestinians in the enclave.

Reporters have noted airstrikes, artillery shelling, and gunfire from Israeli helicopters on the center and north of Khan Younis in the southern sector. These military operations come with American support, complicating the humanitarian situation further.

Since October 7, 2023, Israel has been committing genocide in Gaza, resulting in 61,599 dead and 154,088 injured, most of whom are children and women. There are also over 9,000 missing and hundreds of thousands displaced, indicating an unprecedented humanitarian disaster.

The Chief of Staff of the occupying army, Ayal Zamir, approved on Wednesday the "central idea" of the plan to occupy the Gaza Strip, which includes attacks on the Zaitoun area south of Gaza City. This came during a meeting that included leaders from the General Staff and the "Shabak" security agency, along with other commanders.

According to a statement published by the spokesperson for the occupying army, Avichai Adraee, the meeting reviewed what he described as the "achievements" of his forces, including the ongoing aggression against the Zaitoun neighborhood east of the city, which began on Tuesday.

Adraee noted that the plan adopted by Zamir comes in accordance with directives from the political level, indicating coordination between the army and the government in executing these aggressive operations.

He also mentioned that the Chief of Staff directed to raise the readiness of the forces and prepare to call up reserve troops, in addition to conducting field exercises, indicating the occupying army's readiness for further escalation in the coming days.

These developments come at a sensitive time, as the aggression against the besieged Gaza Strip continues, increasing the suffering of civilians and emphasizing the urgent need for international intervention to stop these violations.

Two human rights organizations have filed a joint lawsuit before the International Criminal Court, accusing the Israeli occupying state of the systematic targeting of journalists in the besieged Gaza Strip. This lawsuit follows the assassination of reporter Anas Al-Sharif and four of his colleagues, reflecting the escalation of attacks on journalists in the region.

According to available information, the Palestinian Center for Human Rights in Gaza and the Hind Rjab Human Rights Foundation, based in Brussels, have submitted the lawsuit to the International Criminal Court, where the organizations confirmed that the recent Israeli attack represents much more than just another tragedy in a conflict characterized by violence against journalists.

The organizations noted that 242 journalists have been martyred since the beginning of the war, according to the Committee to Protect Journalists, indicating the scale of violations faced by journalists in the Palestinian territories. They affirmed that these incidents are not isolated events, but rather part of a broader campaign against the press.

In the submitted lawsuit, the organizations called for the issuance of arrest warrants against specific Israeli military officials, while expanding the current International Criminal Court warrant against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to include crimes against journalists.

Diab Abu Jahja, head of the Hind Rjab Human Rights Foundation, pointed out that the case is not a symbolic lawsuit, but reflects a tragic reality, considering that the assassination of Al-Sharif was a brutal and arrogant act. This statement reflects the frustration and anger over the escalation of attacks on journalists.

Amnesty International condemned in the strongest terms what it described as the "deliberate killing" committed by Israeli occupation forces against Palestinian journalists, following an airstrike that targeted their media tent in the occupied city of Gaza.

Journalist Anas Al-Sharif and several of his colleagues were martyred during this airstrike, where the six targeted journalists represented the voice of Gaza in the face of siege and destruction, continuing their field coverage despite direct threats of death.

Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz announced that he bears responsibility for approving appointments in the army from the rank of colonel and above, emphasizing the necessity of following the correct procedures in this regard. His statements came amid an unprecedented dispute with Chief of Staff Eyal Zamir, centered around new appointments among senior officers.

Katz criticized attempts to change procedures by listening to advice from consultants he considers hostile to the government, indicating that these attempts will not succeed. He affirmed that he will continue to direct the army according to a clear offensive policy, especially after the attack that occurred on October 7.

Katz clarified that he is responsible for approving appointments after a recommendation from the Chief of Staff, noting the need for close monitoring of the army. He also confirmed that the damage inflicted on army officers due to the policy of listening to advice hostile to the government is negative and regrettable.

According to the Israeli Broadcasting Authority, Katz refused to approve the list of appointments prepared by the Chief of Staff, preventing the latter from entering his office despite a scheduled meeting between them. Despite this refusal, the army published a list of appointments for the rank of brigadier general without the signature of the Defense Minister.

Military leaders accused the political leadership, headed by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, of being behind the obstruction of appointments, considering that this is part of the pressure on the military institution to proceed with the plan to occupy the city of Gaza.

Military sources described what is happening as political extortion of the army during the war, indicating that this crisis undermines the harmony between the political and military leadership at a sensitive moment both on the ground and strategically.

Commenting on the dispute between Katz and Zamir, leader of the Democratic Party Yair Golan said that Netanyahu demands personal loyalty before the security of Israel, wanting a Chief of Staff who harms security and implements illusory plans.

Golan considered that harming the Chief of Staff harms the security of Israel, affirming that decades of courageous service by the Chief of Staff cannot be traded for the whims of Netanyahu, his family, and his partners.

Earlier, Israeli opposition leader Yair Lapid criticized the current situation, noting that the appointment of officers in the army does not occur without leaks, brawls, and defamation, describing Netanyahu's government as crazy.

Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese confirmed that the starvation policy practiced by Israel against the Palestinians in the Gaza Strip is considered a war crime. This came during an interview with Australian ABC News, where he expressed his deep concern over the escalating humanitarian crisis in Gaza.

Albanese explained that the restrictions imposed on the flow of humanitarian aid since March have led to a real humanitarian catastrophe, pointing out that the loss of lives due to the genocide being committed by Israel is absolutely unacceptable.

He added that Israel's actions are unjustifiable, and that there is immense suffering experienced by the people in Gaza, who are suffering from hunger and loss of life. He noted that many people are being killed while trying to obtain food and water, which is completely unacceptable.

In a related context, the Ministry of Health in Gaza announced that the death toll from the ongoing Israeli starvation since October 7, 2023, has risen to 227 Palestinians, including 103 children, after five people died within 24 hours.

Albanese also indicated that Australia will recognize the State of Palestine during the upcoming United Nations General Assembly meetings in September, reflecting a shift in Australian policy towards the Palestinian issue.

Since October 7, the occupying state has been committing genocide in Gaza, including killing, starvation, and destruction, ignoring international calls and orders from the International Court of Justice to stop these actions.

The Israeli genocide has resulted in the deaths of 61,599 Palestinians and 154,088 injured, most of whom are children and women, in addition to more than 9,000 missing and hundreds of thousands displaced, leading to a famine that has claimed the lives of 227 people, including 103 children.
