The humanitarian zone in Al-Mawasi was hit by four missiles, causing dozens of Palestinian deaths and injuries. The Israeli military claimed to target a Hamas command center within the zone, leading to criticism of their actions. In addition to this attack, Israeli airstrikes on Syria resulted in the deaths of 25 people, with Iran condemning the strikes as criminal. Former Israeli defense minister Benny Gantz called for a shift in focus towards Hezbollah and the Lebanese border, highlighting the threat posed by Iran and its proxies in the region. The UN human rights chief emphasized the need to end the war in Gaza and address Israel’s disregard for international law in the Palestinian territories. The Palestinian Authority held a funeral for an American-Turkish activist killed by Israeli forces during a demonstration against settlements in the West Bank. Australia is working with the UK and other allies to pressure Israel to alleviate the suffering of Palestinian civilians and stop the erosion of norms protecting aid workers, supporting the UK’s decision to curb arms exports to Israel. These events highlight the ongoing conflict and humanitarian crisis in the Middle East, with calls for international action to address the situation.
