Hezbollah retaliation 

Hezbollah has carried out fresh retaliatory operations against Israeli military sites and settlements deep inside the occupied territories, hitting a number of the regime’s vital bases. In one of its latest operations, the group targeted the Foran camp for the first time with a barrage of rocket. That’s a base for the deployment of Israeli ground forces in the occupied Syrian Golan heights. The group also targeted the Rawia base in the occupied Golan with a rocket barrage. The group also hit a number of the settlements, including Meron, Avivim and Nahariya with salvo of rockets. The Lebanese resistance movement said it targeted gatherings of Israeli forces in a number of settlements using drones. Hezbollah said it also destroyed an Israeli Merkava tank, west of the town of Shamaa in southern Lebanon, killing and injuring its crew. And, Israeli gatherings inside the Lebanese town of Khiyam were targeted several times. 

Israel war on children 

Humanitarian organization ‘Save the Children’ says around 130,000 kids aged under 10 have been deprived of food and medicine, during 50 days of the Israeli siege on the areas in northern Gaza. The leading humanitarian organization for children, underlined that kids living in North Gaza have been almost completely cut-off from supplies of food, water, and medicine, despite numerous warnings of famine. Save the Children has been unable to access northern Gaza to deliver much needed food parcels, hygiene kits and other aid supplies, for over seven weeks. Around 10,000 children in Jabalia, Beit Lahiya and Beit Hanoun were not reached at all by the recent polio vaccine campaign. The humanitarian organization says children are bearing the brunt of the war in Gaza. That’s while, the UN has also warned that the entire population of North Gaza is at risk of dying, adding that Israeli forces repeatedly denied aid groups from accessing the area. According to the UN, around 44-percent of those killed by the Regime forces are children, with the majority of those being between 5 and 9 years old.

Demanding action on Israel 

Iran's Foreign Minister has criticized the UN inaction on Israel’s acts of aggression, saying the international community should not allow the regime’s lawlessness to be normalized. Abbas Araghchi emphasized the need for a global coalition to end the Israeli genocide in Gaza and its aggression against Lebanon. He stressed that safeguarding the UN Charter requires effective collective action to end these crimes. Araghchi made the remarks in the extraordinary meeting of foreign ministers of the group of friends of the UN Charter to discuss the humanitarian situation in occupied Palestine. Iran’s top diplomat also called for accountability and punishment of Israeli leaders and their military supporters, especially the United States. He described the International Criminal Court's arrest warrants against Israeli leaders as a necessary but overdue step in the pursuit of justice.
