Day 48 War update

◾️ The death toll from Israel’s genocide in Gaza has surpassed 13,000, including over 5,500 children and 3,500 women. Israel’s genocidal war on the enclave has disrupted communications to the extent that it is impossible to provide accurate and up-to-date numbers concerning the death toll.

◾️ More than 50 Israeli soldiers killed during fighting in the Gaza Strip were buried at the Mount Herzl cemetery over the course of two days. The cemetery’s director said, “Every hour there is a funeral.”

◾️ Intense Israeli shelling in the area surrounding the Indonesian Hospital in Gaza City killed at least 12 Palestinians as Israeli tanks surrounded the hospital, firing on the facility and anyone attempting to leave it. More than 6,000 people are in the hospital, including staff, patients, and those taking shelter.

◾️ Heavy rainfall has been continuing to ravage Gaza, exacerbating the humanitarian conditions for the displaced. The rain is set to continue and will be accompanied by a drop in the temperature over the next few weeks. Israel’s genocidal war on Gaza has displaced almost 1.7 million people since October 7.

◾️ Two Israeli air attacks killed at least 14 people in residential areas in Rafah as Israeli strikes on the supposed “safe zone” in southern Gaza continue.

◾️ Israeli forces have conducted several raids across the occupied West Bank, detaining several Palestinians, among them at least 30 workers originally from Gaza.

◾️ Lebanon’s Hezbollah targeted the command center of the Israeli 91st Division this morning with missile strikes.

◾️ Yemen’s Ansarallah has seized an Israeli-linked cargo vessel, including up to 52 of its crew members, in the Red Sea; Israeli businessman Abraham “Rami” Unger, Israel’s 21st richest man, partly owns the ship.

◾️ Qatari Prime Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani has said that only “minor” challenges remain to a deal to release some of the more than 200 Israelis held in Gaza.
