UNRWA stated that the Israeli war on Gaza led to the displacement of more than 75% of the population and the destruction of about 62% of homes.

  Continuous bombing on Civilians

The Israeli occupation has continued its aggression against the people of Gaza since last October 7, as its gunboats opened fire on a number of displaced people today, Monday, while they were trying to return to their homes in the northern Gaza Strip.

Palestinian sources reported that the occupation gunboats opened fire on hundreds of displaced people who were trying to return to their homes in Gaza City and the North Governorate via the Wadi Gaza Bridge on Al-Rashid Street, wounding at least two of them.

She added that a child died from injuries she sustained yesterday, as a result of her and her family being targeted by the occupation forces as they attempted to return to the northern Gaza Strip, via Al-Rashid Street.

Yesterday, Sunday, five citizens, including a woman, were martyred as a result of occupation artillery targeting displaced people on Al-Rashid Street while they were trying to return to the northern Gaza Strip.

The Ministry of Health in Gaza reported the martyrdom of the child Malak Haniyeh, the granddaughter of the head of the political bureau of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas), Ismail Haniyeh, who had been in intensive care at Kamal Adwan Hospital since she was injured on the first day of Eid al-Fitr.

The Ministry said in its daily update: The Israeli occupation committed 7 massacres against families in the Gaza Strip, including 68 martyrs and 94 injuries to hospitals during the past 24 hours.

It confirmed that the toll of the aggression had risen to 33,797 martyrs and 76,465 injuries since the seventh of last October.

She pointed out that a number of victims are still under rubble and on the roads, and ambulance and civil defense crews cannot reach them.

Al-Quds Brigades, the military wing of the Islamic Jihad Movement, said that it bombed a command-and-control position belonging to the Zionist enemy in the land of Sheikh Ali Abu Madin, in the vicinity of Palestine University, north of Nuseirat, in the central Gaza Strip, with a barrage of heavy-caliber mortar shells.

Today, Monday, the brigades showed scenes of targeting Zionist enemy soldiers and fortifications east of Jabalia with machine guns.

Details of Hamas' Response

Sources revealed details of the response of the Islamic Resistance Movement Hamas to the mediators regarding the proposed ceasefire and prisoner exchange agreement in Gaza.

According to what sources revealed to Al Jazeera, “Hamas” adhered to the proposed framework for a ceasefire in 3 stages; Each one lasts 42 days.

Hamas also stipulated the withdrawal of the Israeli occupation forces to the dividing line in all areas in the first stage, and demanded the return of the displaced to the northern Gaza Strip and the guarantee of freedom of movement in all its areas.

The movement stipulated that a permanent ceasefire be announced in the second phase before the prisoner exchange could begin, and also demanded the withdrawal of the occupation forces from the Gaza Strip in the second phase.

Regarding the exchange of prisoners, Hamas offered, in exchange for the release of any civilian prisoner, the release of 30 Palestinian prisoners.

The Hebrew Channel 12 reported that the date has been postponed at this stage, and that military censorship does not allow the publication of further details regarding this.

Last week, Netanyahu said that a date had been set to carry out a ground operation in Rafah in order to "complete the elimination of the remaining Hamas brigades" and achieve what he described as absolute victory in the war.

Iranian Attack on Israel

International reactions to the Iranian attack on the Zionist entity continue, at a time when reports are coming in of anticipation of an Israeli response to Iran’s attacks today.

Western countries, led by France and Britain, expressed their concern about the escalation of tension in the region, and called on the Israeli occupation to exercise restraint, avoid further escalation, and settle all disputes exclusively through political and diplomatic methods.

The Wall Street Journal reported the expectations of American and Western officials for Israel’s response to the Iranian attacks on Monday, stressing that the United States will not participate in that, and that it is pushing “Israel” not to do anything that might lead to an escalation of the conflict, according to the “Al-Arabi” website. the new".

Palestinian Children, War on Gaza, Digital Design, Gaza, Palestinian Children's Day

Palestinian children suffer greatly throughout Palestinian territories and are exposed to imminent dangers. In addition to the general targeting of Palestinians, the occupation specifically targets childhood in Palestine. It inflicts torture upon children and adolescents through deliberate killings, horrifying massacres, frequent arrests accompanied by physical and psychological assaults, as well as targeting their schools, curricula, and institutions advocating for their rights and social frameworks.

The suffering of children exacerbates in the absence of providers and the martyrdom of most family members, rendering them double victims of both the dire need for family and the occupier targeting them.

Here, we focus on 5 crimes committed by the occupation authorities against children in Palestine in conjunction with the "Palestinian Children's Day."

1- Murder:

With the death toll of the aggression on the Gaza Strip surpassing 33,000 martyrs, Palestinian medical sources indicate that more than 14,000 of them, including children, were killed by the occupation aircraft since the beginning of the aggression on the Gaza Strip. Palestinian sources also indicate that there are larger numbers under the rubble of homes due to the difficulty of retrieving the martyrs' bodies.

Child killing is not limited to Gaza alone. Occupation forces kill children in various Palestinian areas on flimsy pretexts. In 2023, the occupation forces killed 135 Palestinian children in the West Bank and occupied Jerusalem.

2- Deprivation of Family Warmth:

The atrocities committed by the occupation authorities in Gaza are revealed day after day. The occupation has killed more than 9,000 women since the beginning of the aggression, including a large number of mothers. This means depriving the child of family warmth and stability. Since the beginning of the aggression, thousands of children have lost one or both parents. Estimates from UNRWA indicate that 17,000 orphans in the district have lost one or both parents. Additionally, a large number of children have been separated from their families due to the ground aggression and the cutting of Gaza's lifelines.

Many recorded videos have shown children arriving at Gaza hospitals below the age of speaking (most of them infants), with unknown families. Following these atrocious crimes, international bodies have begun using a new term abbreviated as "WCNSF," meaning "Wounded Child with No Surviving Family to Care for."

3- From Psychological Intimidation to Starvation:

Children are subjected to deliberate psychological intimidation, ranging from attacks by occupation forces, to the invasion and demolition of their homes, causing serious psychological traumas. According to specialists, the psychological condition of children in Palestine in general, and in the Gaza Strip in particular, has been severely affected by the aggression on the sector. In Gaza, children have exhibited symptoms such as excessive levels of continuous anxiety, loss of appetite, difficulty sleeping, and experiencing severe emotional outbursts or panic attacks triggered by the sound of bombs and explosions. Many recorded videos shared by activists in Gaza have revealed children being martyred due to their extreme fear of the sounds of explosions.

Occupation authorities did not stop at these crimes alone; they exacerbated them with the crime of starvation. Palestinians in general, and children in particular, are deprived of sufficient food and clean water. This has led to the martyrdom of more than 15 children due to the famine striking the northern Gaza Strip. According to the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF), 31% of children under the age of two in northern Gaza suffer from severe malnutrition, meaning 1 in every 3 children. The prevalence rate of severe malnutrition among children under the age of five in the north has increased from 13% to 25%, according to the organization. The World Health Organization confirms that malnutrition has affected around 90% of children in Gaza.

4- Deprivation of Medical Care:

The occupation targeted the healthcare sector in the Gaza Strip to deprive Palestinians of any means of resilience against the Zionist killing machine. This has led to the spread of infectious diseases in the sector. According to the World Health Organization, 90% of children under the age of five are infected with at least one infectious disease. With the shortage of medications, these diseases ravage the bodies of children suffering from malnutrition.

Regarding the occupation's crimes and its intensified targeting of Palestinians, reports from UN organizations in January 2024 revealed that around a thousand children in Gaza have lost one or both of their legs since the beginning of the occupation's aggression. These reports also highlighted that most of the surgical operations for children were performed without anaesthesia, and emphasized the lack of medical teams and equipment in the Gaza Strip.

5- Arrests:

Occupation forces annually arrest hundreds of children from various occupied Palestinian territories. The occupation forces treat them with the same treatment received by Palestinian prisoners. They arrest sick children and underage girls, subjecting them to various physical and psychological assaults. This begins with brutal beatings upon their arrest, transferring them in military vehicles under continuous beatings and insults, all the way to interrogation centres where children are subjected to the most heinous forms of torture.

The violations against children do not stop there. The occupation authorities also impose heavy fines on the families of children, in addition to imposing house arrest and depriving them of continuing their education.

 Major General Mohammad Bagheri, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces, said in statements reported by the Iranian News Agency (IRNA): “We have no intention to continue the operation against Israel,” and that the operation has ended from our point of view." Bagheri confirmed that the operation carried out byIran was a punishment, warning that Iran's response to any action would be much greater.

Dubai: The Kuwaiti Ministry of Information has halted the airing of the TV series “One Wife is Not Enough” during Ramadan, citing its offensive portrayal that clashes with Kuwaiti societal values.

The ministry also referred the creators of the series to the Public Prosecution, charging them with offending the morals and values of Kuwaiti society.

Additionally, the ministry has imposed a ban on all actors involved in the series from participating in any future artistic endeavours within Kuwait, be it on stage or screen.

Lafi Al Subaie, Assistant Undersecretary of the Press, Publishing and Publications Sector at the Ministry of Information, emphasised the ministry’s commitment to upholding laws and regulations uniformly for all individuals, without discrimination.

The move aims to safeguard Kuwait’s societal fabric and uphold its cultural heritage, while also ensuring that public taste is respected and maintained.

Al Subaie emphasized the Ministry's unwavering stance against the display of artwork that undermines the values of Kuwaiti society. He urged artists to be mindful and refrain from creating content that could potentially offend societal norms.

3 of Haniyeh’s sons killed by Israel

Israeli genocide war has entered its 187th day, as the Zionist occupation forces continue to commit massacres in the Gaza Strip, by launching dozens of air strikes, artillery shelling, and bloody massacres against civilians.

 The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) stated that the “Israeli” war on Gaza led to the displacement of more than 75% of the population and the destruction of about 62% of homes.

Below is a follow-up of the most prominent developments:

3 of Haniyeh’s sons killed by Israel

In a new crime, a Zionist raid targeted a vehicle in the Beach Camp in Gaza, inside which were 3 sons of the head of the Political Bureau of the Islamic Resistance Movement “Hamas,” Ismail Haniyeh, and 3 of his grandchildren.

According to Al-Aqsa Channel, the martyrs died in the Zionist bombing are:

- Hazem Ismail Haniyeh and his daughter Amal.

- Amir Ismail Haniyeh, his son Khaled, and his daughter Razan.

- Muhammad Ismail Haniyeh.

In his first comment, the head of the Hamas Political Bureau, Ismail Haniyeh, commented on the martyrdom of 3 of his sons and grandchildren saying: “I thank Allah for honoring us through the martyrdom of my three sons and some grandchildren.”

Haniyeh also said to Al-Jazeera: “Through pain and sacrifice, we build hope, future, and freedom for our people, cause, and nation.”

 He stressed that his children stayed with people of Gaza and did not flee, and that, along with all Palestinians, nearly sixty members of his family rose as martyrs.

 He declared that his sons' blood was no more valuable than the sons of the Gaza martyrs saying, "My sons' blood is a sacrifice on the road to liberating Jerusalem and Al-Aqsa,"

Activists circulated a video clip of the head of the Hamas political bureau the moment he received the news of the martyrdom of his three sons, during his visit to the wounded in Gaza in a Doha hospital, saying: “May God make it easy for them and have mercy on them.”

Massacre on Eid night

On the eve of Eid, the Zionist occupation forces committed a massacre in the Nuseirat camp in the central Gaza Strip, killing at least 14 martyrs, the majority of whom were children and women.

The Palestinian Information Center correspondent reported that the occupation warplanes bombed a house for the Abu Youssef family on the heads of its residents on the last day of the month of Ramadan and hours before Eid al-Fitr.

Eid al-Fitr with Sadness, Grief and Pain

The government media office in Gaza said: The Gaza Strip receives the happy Eid al-Fitr with more sadness, grief and pain, in light of the continuing crimes carried out by the “Israeli” occupation army, and the continuation of the war of genocide and ethnic cleansing.

He pointed out in a statement the high number of martyrs and wounded and the continued bombing of homes and civilian institutions, the latest of which was the occupation’s commission on Eid night of a horrific and terrible massacre against the Abu Youssef family, which claimed the lives of 14 martyrs.

He stressed that the occupation is still carrying out its criminal and military actions since the morning of Eid, with its warplanes flying over the Gaza Strip and its tanks firing missiles continuously, in clear disregard for the feelings of Muslims and the feelings of our Palestinian people.

America’s Responsibility

 He placed the blame on "the international community, which has failed to put an end to this war for more than three times, as well as the occupation, which is still committing the crime of genocide against civilians, children, women, and displaced persons."

He also blamed "the American administration and President Biden personally, as they are still giving the occupation the green light, weapons, and military equipment, and they are participating and engaging in the crime of genocide against the Palestinians."

The government media office in Gaza called on “all countries of the free world to stop this criminal war... by all means and methods, and to put pressure on the criminal occupation to stop its continued aggression against everything that is Palestinian and to stop the ongoing war of ethnic cleansing.”

Eid Prayers on Ruins  

Today, Wednesday, Palestinians in the Gaza Strip performed Eid al-Fitr prayers on the ruins of mosques destroyed by the occupation army, in the shelter schools to which they were displaced, and in public squares in the rain.

During its ongoing aggression against the Gaza Strip since October 7, the occupation destroyed 229 mosques completely and 297 mosques partially, according to the Palestinian News Agency (Wafa).

Resistance continues to crush the enemy

For the 187th day in a row, the “Al-Qassam Brigades,” the military wing of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas), continues to confront the Zionist forces penetrating into several areas of Gaza.

Al-Qassam announced, at dawn on Wednesday, that it and the “Mujahideen Brigades” had destroyed enemy forces’ concentrations southwest of Gaza City with mortar shells.

 Biden Intensifies Criticism of Netanyahu

In an interview broadcast on Tuesday, US President Joe Biden considered the policy of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Gaza to be “wrong,” and called for a ceasefire.

Biden's comments are among his strongest criticism of Netanyahu so far, amid growing tension over the high death toll among civilians due to the Zionist war on Gaza and the difficult conditions inside the Strip.

Biden told the American Spanish-language network “Univision” when asked about Netanyahu’s handling of the war, “I think what he is doing is wrong.” “I don’t agree with his approach.”

Biden reiterated during the interview that the killing of seven aid workers last week in an “Israeli” raid in Gaza, working for a US-based charity, was “terrible.”

Biden's statements regarding the ceasefire represent a shift from his previous statements in which he said that the burden falls on Hamas to agree to a truce and an agreement to release prisoners, according to what was reported by the French news agency.
