Israeli genocide in Gaza
The Palestinian resistance movement, Hamas, says the Israeli attack that killed an al-Jazeera cameraman in the Gaza Strip on Friday, was deliberately targeted at journalists. The movement says the strike on a UN school was an attempt to intimidate news staff documenting the regime’s massacres in the Gaza Strip. Earlier, al-Jazeera said an Israeli strike in khan Yunis wounded two of its news staff. One of them, Samer Abu Daqqa, bled to death as Israeli forces prevented paramedics from reaching him. The news network has condemned the attack. It says it holds Israel accountable for systematically targeting and killing its journalists and their families. Over 80 news staff have been killed by the regime forces since October 7 when it began its onslaught on the Gaza Strip.
Targeting Israel-bound ships
Yemen’s armed forces say they have targeted two Israel-bound ships in the Red Sea. Sare’e said the attack came after the two ships refused to respond to warnings by the Yemeni naval forces. The spokesman vowed that all Israel-bound vessels would be targeted but reassured all other ships passing near Yemeni territory of safe passage. Yemen says the strikes are in response to Israel’s deadly onslaught on Gaza. Sana’a says it will continue the attacks until Israel stops its genocide in Gaza and the needed food and medicine are allowed into the blockaded strip. Danish shipping Company, Maersk, said it would pause all container shipments through the Red Sea. The company said its shipments would be sent on a detour around Africa until further notice.
IOF kills Israeli captives
Israel says its forces have killed 3 Israelis held by Hamas in Gaza during the regime’s ground offensive in the territory. The Israeli military says troopers wrongly identified the captives as threats and shot them dead. The announcement triggered a protest by families and supporters of the captives in Tel Aviv. They demanded an immediate truce in Gaza. The regime’s military has killed Hamas-held captives on several occasions. However, more than 100 of them remain in custody in Gaza. That’s after a week-long truce in late November that saw Hamas swap than 100 Israeli captives with 240 Palestinian women and children.
