US-Israeli Gaza genocide
The Israeli aggression against the besieged Gaza Strip continues to escalate, claiming more civilian lives across the blockaded territory. In one of the latest strikes, at least two people lost their lives, and several others were injured when the Israeli artillery shelled the home of a Palestinian family in the al-Bureij refugee camp in central Gaza. Additionally, Israeli artillery struck a group of civilians in the Al-Karama area, northwest of Gaza City, resulting in two fatalities and multiple injuries. Several neighborhoods in Gaza have also been hit by Israeli airstrikes, with fatalities reported in various locations. The regime launched its genocidal war back in October 2023. Since then, over 46,500 people have been killed, and more than 109,000 others injured.
California on fire
As California wildfires are wreaking havoc on Los Angeles, the city’s Fire Chief Kristen Crowley says authorities have failed the fire department. Speaking to the media, Crowley complained that 17 million dollars in cuts have had a negative impact on the department’s ability to fight the blazes. Meanwhile, California's Governor and the Mayor of Los Angeles have faced substantial criticism for their failure to allocate sufficient resources, equipment, and relief personnel to the regions impacted by the devastating fires. President-elect, Donald Trump, said the current situation reflects a combination of incompetence and mismanagement on the part of incumbent president Joe Biden. In response, Biden has called for the fires to be kept out of the political arena. Meanwhile, US media have attributed the ongoing crisis to the lack of coordination among fire department officials and the ineffectiveness of city authorities.
