US-Israeli genocide in Gaza

Israel is pushing ahead with its genocidal onslaught on Gaza, killing more Palestinians in its indiscriminate air and artillery strikes. The latest strikes targeted a residential area of Gaza City, killing nine people, including four children. At least two Palestinians were killed when an Israeli drone fired a missile at a vehicle in Deir el-Balah city. An attack near Shifa hospital left several people dead. According to the Gaza Health Ministry, at least 42 Palestinians have been killed in Friday’s attacks. This brings the death toll since October 2023 to over 45,650. Nearly 108,600 others have also been injured.

Israel's war on hospitals

Israeli forces have threatened to shell al-Awda Hospital in Jabalia refugee camp in the northern Gaza Strip if it is not completely evacuated. According to media reports, the regime issued a forced evacuation of 96 patients and medical personnel, demanding everyone be cleared out immediately. This would deny 40,000 Palestinians from healthcare services in the northern Strip. The incident comes as Israel intensifies its war on the Gaza healthcare system. The Israeli forces have already attacked the Kamal Adwan Hospital and the Indonesian Hospital, putting them out of service, while the Al-Awda Hospital is still struggling to offer services. Last week, the regime’s troops killed at least 20 Palestinian medical workers and patients in Kamal Adwan hospital. International organizations, including the World Health Organization, have called on Tel Aviv to stop attacks on hospitals.

Yemen pro-Palestine rallies

The people of Yemen have once again taken to the streets in huge numbers to express support for Palestine, as the Yemeni armed forces announce a new military strike against Israel.
