Intl desk, Dec 01: Israeli forces killed at least 40 Palestinians in a single air raid on the Jabalia refugee camp in northern Gaza, as the death toll from Israel’s attacks on Saturday rose to at least 100 people.
Earlier, Israeli air attacks on southern Khan Younis killed at least 12 Palestinians waiting for food aid as well as four workers from World Central Kitchen and Save the Children.
Faced with an arrest warrant from the ICC, Netanyahu – and much of the Israeli media – reflexively dismissed the move as anti-Semitic.
While the walls appear to be closing in on Netanyahu, he is a survivor. He knows how to muddy the waters. His government is also going after one of the few Israeli news outlets critical of the war on Gaza – Haaretz.
Save the Children has published a new report on the impact of Israel’s war on Palestinian children in Gaza.
It said the conflict “has inflicted unprecedented and potentially irreversible harm on Palestinian children, with consequences that threaten not only their individual futures but the very fabric of Palestinian society for generations to come”.
The report identified several short and long-term consequences of the conflict on Palestinian children.
It said children in Gaza face acute risks from explosive weapons, starvation, disease, and lack of essential services, while malnutrition, inadequate healthcare, and constant exposure to violence are inflicting lasting damage on their physical and cognitive development.
