• Joe Biden is the most corrupt President in American history.

    I filed Articles of Impeachment on Joe Biden’s first full day in office because of the crimes he and his family committed to enrich themselves at the expense of the American people.

    The pardon of Hunter Biden isn’t the end. Joe still has to answer for his crimes.

    Gaza’s health ministry says Israeli strikes have killed 36 Palestinians and wounded 96 others in the latest 24-hour reporting period.

    At least 25 people were killed when Israeli warplanes hit and leveled an inhabited home in Beit Lahia in northern Gaza, a local source said on Monday. Women and children were sheltering there.

    More than 3,700 people have been killed or reported missing during 60 days of Israeli military’s operations in northern Gaza, the enclave’s media office said Monday. 1,750 are reported detained.

    In Lebanon, in spite of a ceasefire, Israeli forces killed at least 11 on Monday.

    There are no ‘humanitarian zones’ or ‘evacuation orders’ in Gaza

    As you read this, many families in Gaza are weighing whether they should flee their current shelter and risk having to endure the harsh winter out on the streets or risk being bombed and killed where they are. There is no guarantee that they will be safe from Israel’s bombs and bullets if they choose either option.

    These are dilemmas no human should ever have to endure, yet recent research by Action For Humanity found that 98 percent of the 200,000 people in the “humanitarian zones” in central Gaza have had to wrestle with them. In fact, according to our findings, more than a quarter of these people have had to move 10 or more times in the past 13 months.

    The research, based on the testimonies of displaced Palestinians on the ground, revealed that Israel’s “evacuation orders” often give people just an hour, and sometimes even less, to pack up what remains of their lives and run for their lives. And when they agree to “evacuate”, they are often still chased by a hail of bullets as they try to find new shelter in another “humanitarian zone”.

    The devastating details in the report, titled Erasure by Design, make it clear that there are no real humanitarian zones in Gaza and that the “evacuation orders” Israel issues are not aimed at getting Palestinians out of harm’s way. The use of these terms by Israel, its allies and international media serve only to whitewash what is happening before our eyes in Gaza: land grabs under the threat of extermination.

    It is doing so to ensure nowhere in Gaza is safe for Palestinians. It is trying to kill two birds with one stone: creating the illusion of adherence to humanitarian law while laying the groundwork for illegally expanding Israeli territory.

    The reality on the ground is clear: There are no “humanitarian zones” or “evacuation orders” but only threats of extermination and islands of medieval suffering not fit for basic survival, let alone dignified living.




    Israeli army razes 600 buildings in Gaza to build dozens of military bases, expand Netzarim Corridor

    The Israeli army has been expanding its construction of military bases, outposts, and communication towers in the Netzarim Corridor in central Gaza, the New York Times (NYT) reported on 2 December.

    The military has demolished over 600 buildings around the corridor in the past three months “in an apparent attempt to create a buffer zone,” the report states.

    Satellite images reviewed by NYT showed the Israeli army has built at least 19 large bases throughout the area and dozens of small ones, suggesting plans for a long-term occupation.

    “While some were built earlier in the war, the imagery also shows that the pace of construction appears to be accelerating: 12 of the bases were either built or expanded since early September,” NYT writes.

    As a result of the construction, the corridor has slowly grown into a 46.6 square-kilometer military zone occupied by Israeli forces.

    Hamas says 33 Israeli captives killed in Gaza

    Hamas says 33 captives held by the group in Gaza have been killed since the start of Israel’s nearly 14-month-old war in the besieged enclave.

    The group issued a video statement on Monday saying the captives were killed “because of the stubbornness of the war criminal” Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and “his ongoing aggression”.

    Hamas made the announcement as key mediators, including Egypt, Qatar and the United States, launch another effort to reach a ceasefire that would see the release of Israeli captives.

    The push comes after a recent truce in Lebanon raised hope for a diplomatic breakthrough.

    Hamas’s video lists and dates the incidents in which the group said captives were killed. Most of them were air strikes. However, some were rescue attempts by the Israeli military gone wrong.

    Hamas offered to release all Israeli hostages in the early days of the war.

    The Israeli air force bombed a tent encampment in Al-Mawasi camp near south Gaza's Khan Younis, a so-called ‘safe zone,’ killing two children – Jawad and Sareen – on 1 December. The children's mother and a sibling were also injured in the attack, according to medics.

    B’Tselem: “Unleashed: Abuse of Palestinians by Israeli Soldiers in the Center of Hebron”

    In the West Bank, the view of all Palestinians as enemies who should be treated with unyielding force is translating into further oppression of the entire civilian population, by the various arms of the Israeli regime.

    A record number of Palestinians were killed by Israeli fire in 2024, and the number of detentions and administrative detainees reached a historic high.

    Since the beginning of the war, many attacks on Palestinians by soldiers and settlers have been documented throughout the West Bank. The attacks were aimed at Palestinians suspected of no wrongdoing and often carried out in plain sight, in full view of officers and commanders.

    Soldiers are being urged to take more “proactive” and “offensive” actions, while the public is demanding – or, at least, accepting – revenge on all Palestinians for the crimes of Hamas.

    They see themselves as authorized to play the role of prosecutor, judge and executioner in any encounter with a Palestinian. In practice, every soldier has been granted virtually unlimited power to use violent means of oppression.

    They know they will not be held accountable for their conduct.

    B’Tselem’s field researchers gathered testimonies from Palestinians who were attacked by soldiers in the city center of Hebron between May and August 2024. Their accounts indicate a rise in the scope, type and severity of violence that soldiers are currently employing against Palestinians in the West Bank.

    Israel has demolished over 1,500 West Bank facilities in 2024, says UN

    Israeli forces have demolished 1,528 Palestinian-owned structures in the occupied West Bank since the start of the year, according to the latest figures published by the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA).

    The UN data, published on 29 November, indicated that 3,637 Palestinians have been displaced as a result of an ongoing Israeli demolition campaign.

    The destroyed infrastructure included inhabited residences (700), agricultural infrastructure (398), and livelihood-related assets (205), such as shops and businesses.

    ‘Significant progress’ made by Hamas, Fatah on post-war Gaza govt: Report

    Hamas and the Palestinian Authority’s (PA) Fatah party have made “significant progress” towards forming a joint governing body to administer a post-war Gaza Strip during talks in the Egyptian capital Cairo, Al-Araby al-Jadeed reported on 2 December.

    The source said, “There is a general consensus among all on the need to seize the opportunity to resolve the differences and end the suffering of the Palestinian people.”

    In late July this year, Hamas, Fatah, and 12 other Palestinian factions signed a Chinese-brokered reconciliation agreement during meetings in Beijing.

    Washington has been pushing its own plans for post-war Gaza, which involves the installment of a “reformed” PA under the tutelage of an Arab-International mission.

    The Palestinian resistance factions have rejected western initiatives for post-war Gaza and maintain that the fate of their people must remain in their hands.

    Meanwhile, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu continues to reject the PA and Fatah’s involvement in any post-war government in Gaza. The premier has advanced his own plans for the ‘day after’ the war, which involves indefinite Israeli security control over the strip.

    Israel strikes Lebanon again and again, but hopes ceasefire will hold

    Israel has a unique and unilateral interpretation of the ceasefire agreement with Lebanon, whereby Israel has given itself the right to enforce that agreement with “fire”. So far, according to UNIFIL, the UN peacekeeping force in southern Lebanon, Israel has broken the ceasefire at least 100 times.

    These were the words of the Israeli army Chief of Staff Herzi Halevi, “We will maintain the ceasefire with fire”, meaning that Israel can strike at Hezbollah on Lebanese territory and beyond.

    Israel views any infraction, any movement, any activity of Hezbollah as a violation that it has the right to respond to.

    US envoy Amos Hochstein has expressed frustration and fear that these Israeli attacks could threaten this fragile ceasefire.

    In the meantime, Israel continues striking but is still hoping that this ceasefire would hold.

    Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar told his French counterpart in a phone call that his country is, in fact, enforcing the ceasefire – which stipulates Hezbollah’s withdrawal from the Israel-Lebanon border area – rather than violating it, Sa’ar said on X Monday.

    On Monday alone, in spite of the ceasefire, Israeli forces killed at least 11 Lebanese.

    Over 500 digital rights violations against Palestinian content recorded in November: Report

    Sada Social, an organization dedicated to documenting digital rights violations against Palestinian content online, reported over 500 violations in November.

    The organization documented extensive digital suppression across multiple platforms in its monthly report.

    Meta platforms accounted for 57% of the violations, followed by TikTok at 23%, YouTube at 13% and X at 7%.

    Additionally, 30 WhatsApp accounts belonging to Palestinians were removed, including two news groups.

    These actions deepen “digital policies that suppress Palestinian voices and limit their reach to audiences,” the organization said.

    It also noted that a persistent “digital blackout” continued in northern Gaza, “severely hindering residents’ ability to communicate.”

    Digital policies regularly suppress Palestinian voices and limit their reach to audiences, according to Sada Social, an organization dedicated to documenting digital rights violations against Palestinian content online

    STATISTICS OCTOBER 7, 2023 – DECEMBER 2, 2024:

    Palestinian death toll from October 7, 2023 – December 2, 2024: at least 45,303* ( 44,502 in Gaza* – 69% are women and children, according to Gaza’s Media Office). [The Ministry’s figures have been contested by the Israeli authorities, although they have been accepted as accurate by Israeli intelligence services, the UN, and WHO. These data are supported by independent analyses, comparing changes in the number of deaths of UN Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) staff with those reported by the Ministry, which found claims of data fabrication implausible.]

    This is expected to be a significant undercount since thousands of those killed have yet to be identified. This does not include an estimated 10,000 more in Gaza still buried under rubble (4,900 women and children).

    In the West Bank, Israeli soldiers and/or settlers have killed at least 801 Palestinians (~167 of them children).

    In July 2024, the Lancet said: “Applying a conservative estimate of four indirect deaths per one direct death to the 37,396 deaths reported, it is not implausible to estimate that up to 186,000 or even more deaths could be attributable to the current conflict in Gaza.

    Ralph Nader earlier estimated 300,000 Palestinians may have been killed in Gaza.

    At least 60 Palestinians have died in Israeli prisons (at least 47 from Gaza).
    At least 43 Palestinians have died due to malnutrition (at least 37 of them children)**.
    About 1.9 million of Gaza’s 2.3 million population are currently displaced.
    About 345,000 Gazans are currently experiencing catastrophic levels of food insecurity.
    Palestinian injuries from October 7 – December 2, 2024: at least 111,904 (including at least 105,454 in Gaza and 6,450 in the West Bank, including 830 children). [It remains unknown how many Americans are among the casualties in Gaza.]

    Reported Israeli death toll from October 7, 2023 – December 2, 2024: ~1,584 (~1,139 on October 7, 2023, of which ~32 were Americans, and ~36 were children); 406*** military forces since the ground invasion began in Gaza (updated: Nov 29); 39 military and civilians in the West Bank, East Jerusalem, and Israel) and~10,000 injured.

    The death toll in Lebanon since October 8, 2023 is at least 3,961, with 16,520 injuries.

    NOTE: It is unknown at this time how many of the deaths and injuries of Israelis on October 7 were caused by Israeli soldiers.

    *Previously, IAK did not include 471 Gazans killed in the Al Ahli hospital blast since the source of the projectile was being disputed. However, given that much evidence points to Israel as the culprit, Israel had previously bombed the hospital and has attacked many others, Israel is prohibiting outside experts from investigating the scene, and since the UN and other agencies are including the deaths from the attack in their cumulative totals, if Americans knew is now also doing so.

    **Euro-Med Monitor reports that Gaza’s elderly are dying at an alarmingly high rate. The majority die at home and are buried either close to their residences or in makeshift graves dispersed across the Strip. There are currently more than 140 such cemeteries. Additionally, according to Euromed, thousands have died from starvation, malnourishment, and inadequate medical care; these are considered indirect victims as they were not registered in hospitals.

    ***The figure does not include the reportedly 56 Israeli soldiers – nearly 16% of the total Israeli military deaths – killed due to friendly fire in Gaza and other military-related accidents.

    † For most of the conflict, women and children accounted for about 70% of deaths in Gaza, with children making up a little over 40% of those killed, according to official statistics.

In July 2024, the Lancet said: “Applying a conservative estimate of four indirect deaths per one direct death to the 37,396 deaths reported, it is not implausible to estimate that up to 186,000 or even more deaths could be attributable to the current conflict in Gaza. Ralph Nader earlier estimated 300,000 Palestinians may have been killed in Gaza. At least 60 Palestinians have died in Israeli prisons (at least 47 from Gaza). At least 43 Palestinians have died due to malnutrition (at least 37 of them children)**. About 1.9 million of Gaza’s 2.3 million population are currently displaced. About 345,000 Gazans are currently experiencing catastrophic levels of food insecurity. Palestinian injuries from October 7 – December 2, 2024: at least 111,904 (including at least 105,454 in Gaza and 6,450 in the West Bank, including 830 children). [It remains unknown how many Americans are among the casualties in Gaza.] Reported Israeli death toll from October 7, 2023 – December 2, 2024: ~1,584 (~1,139 on October 7, 2023, of which ~32 were Americans, and ~36 were children); 406*** military forces since the ground invasion began in Gaza (updated: Nov 29); 39 military and civilians in the West Bank, East Jerusalem, and Israel) and~10,000 injured. The death toll in Lebanon since October 8, 2023 is at least 3,961, with 16,520 injuries. NOTE: It is unknown at this time how many of the deaths and injuries of Israelis on October 7 were caused by Israeli soldiers. *Previously, IAK did not include 471 Gazans killed in the Al Ahli hospital blast since the source of the projectile was being disputed. However, given that much evidence points to Israel as the culprit, Israel had previously bombed the hospital and has attacked many others, Israel is prohibiting outside experts from investigating the scene, and since the UN and other agencies are including the deaths from the attack in their cumulative totals, if Americans knew is now also doing so. **Euro-Med Monitor reports that Gaza’s elderly are dying at an alarmingly high rate. The majority die at home and are buried either close to their residences or in makeshift graves dispersed across the Strip. There are currently more than 140 such cemeteries. Additionally, according to Euromed, thousands have died from starvation, malnourishment, and inadequate medical care; these are considered indirect victims as they were not registered in hospitals. ***The figure does not include the reportedly 56 Israeli soldiers – nearly 16% of the total Israeli military deaths – killed due to friendly fire in Gaza and other military-related accidents. † For most of the conflict, women and children accounted for about 70% of deaths in Gaza, with children making up a little over 40% of those killed, according to official statistics.

  • People think they can pray away Bible prophecy. That's calling God a LIAR and we know God doesn't lie. Very painfully, the perpetrators of this unwholesome act,who are custodians of God's Word...pastors that are busy gathering wealth. Many know but selfishness has blocked their hearts that just before HIS return,your millions and billions will mean nothing, because there will be no food outside God's House(God's ACE CARD) against the devil to save as many souls longing to be saved;

    And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of the LORD'S house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it. (Isa 2: 2)

    10. Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it. 11. And I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, and he shall not destroy the fruits of your ground; neither shall your vine cast her fruit before the time in the field, saith the LORD of hosts. (Mal 3: 10-11)

    Everyone will run to God's House to get food. But your meal TICKET will be unconventional willingness to accept Christ Jesus as Lord and Savior. Not money... money will be valueless. Billionaires and millionaires will queue like everyone. No security details...all will be hustling for food. But the Satanic hardened hearts will become cannibals killing each other to eat,and men will be hiding from men.
    IT'S THE MEANING OF " THAT THERE MIGHT BE FOOD IN MY HOUSE" IT TAKES A PERSONAL REVELATION TO UNDERSTAND THIS.

    This is God's Anger against pastors,who should be investing in food production and storing,like Joseph in Egypt...only this time, salvation will be the purchase tickets. INSTEAD PASTORS ARE BUYING THE BEST MONEY CAN BUY, AND BUILDING LARGE AND BEAUTIFUL AUDITORIUMS FOR PEOPLE DYING IN HUNGER AND LACK TO FILL.

    We are fast approaching the times. Upon all the charitable organizations work, the farming ravaging the GLOBE can't stop. THERE'S NOTHING YOU CAN DO ABOUT CLIMATE CHANGE. GOD CREATED THIS WORLD AND LATER REJECTED. INDEED, ACCORDING TO HIS TIMELINE (READ 2PT.3:10 TO END), GOD WILL BURN THIS WORLD WITH FIRE, AND THE NEW ONE HE HAS ALREADY CREATED WILL REPLACE IT. HOW CAN YOU REPAIR WHAT YOU KNOW NOTHING ABOUT ITS CREATION...CLIMATE CHANGE CONFERENCE INDEED.

    Let the pastors lusting after Lucifer's deception retrace their steps,now that they are still breathing,plus or minus them, GOD'S WORD MUST COME TO PASS

    And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world? (Mat 24: 3)

    6. And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. 7. For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. 8. All these are the beginning of sorrows. (Mat 24: 6-8)

    And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. (Mat 24: 10)

    12. And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. 13. But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. 14. And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come. 15. When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:) (Mat 24: 12-15)

    For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. (Mat 24: 21)

    28. For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together. 29. Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken: 30. And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. 31. And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other. (Mat 24: 28-31)

    So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors. (Mat 24: 33)

    Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away. (Mat 24: 35)

    MANY OF US ARE ONLY THINKING IN THE CONTEXT OF WHAT HAPPENED IN AD70 ,THE DESTRUCTION OF JERUSALEM. THAT'S THE FIRST PART, AND IT HAS TAKEN PLACE,AND WE ARE APPROACHING THE FINAL PHASE.
    AFTER THOSE LONGING TO BE SAVED HAS BEEN SAVED THROUGH "FOOD IN GOD'S HOUSE," LIKE NOAH'S ARK, THE DOOR SHALL BE SHUT FOR GRACE AND MERCY. HE WILL RETURN AND TAKE HIS PEOPLE AWAY FROM THE REJECTED WORLD, AND SATAN WILL BECOME A NIGHTMARE TO ANY OF US WHO COULDN'T MAKE IT WITH GOD'S PEOPLE.

    That's when Satan always copying Christ Jesus will come with his own system of remaining alive, taking the mark of the beast without which,you can't buy nor sell.
    The real hunger has only just begun and there's no human solution to it, outside God's House,and according to Christ Jesus Himself, it heralds His Second coming for His Own.

    May we not be met in AN UNFIT TO BE RAPTURED condition in Christ Jesus Name I pray for us, Amen.

  • Pope Francis calls for global investigation into possible genocide in Gaza – Day 406
    [email protected] November 17, 2024 Adnan al-Bursh, genocide, palestinian journalist, pogrom, pope francis, shati refugee camp


    RECOMMENDED READING: Israeli Troops Shoot and Kill Another Palestinian Boy Because He ‘Threw Stones’
    IMEMC Daily Reports.

    Mondoweiss: Hezbollah demystified



    STATISTICS OCTOBER 7, 2023 – NOVEMBER 16, 2024:

    Palestinian death toll from October 7, 2023 – November 16, 2024: at least 44,631* ( 43,846 in Gaza* – 69% are women and children, according to Gaza’s Media Office). [The Ministry’s figures have been contested by the Israeli authorities, although they have been accepted as accurate by Israeli intelligence services, the UN, and WHO. These data are supported by independent analyses, comparing changes in the number of deaths of UN Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) staff with those reported by the Ministry, which found claims of data fabrication implausible.]

    This is expected to be a significant undercount since thousands of those killed have yet to be identified. This does not include an estimated 10,000 more in Gaza still buried under rubble (4,900 women and children).

    In the West Bank, Israeli soldiers and/or settlers have killed at least 785 Palestinians (~167 of them children).

    In July 2024, the Lancet said: “Applying a conservative estimate of four indirect deaths per one direct death to the 37,396 deaths reported, it is not implausible to estimate that up to 186,000 or even more deaths could be attributable to the current conflict in Gaza.

    Ralph Nader earlier estimated 300,000 Palestinians may have been killed in Gaza.

    At least 60 Palestinians have died in Israeli prisons.
    At least 43 Palestinians have died due to malnutrition (at least 37 of them children)**.
    About 1.9 million of Gaza’s 2.3 million population are currently displaced.
    About 345,000 Gazans are currently experiencing catastrophic levels of food insecurity.
    Palestinian injuries from October 7 – November 16, 2024: at least 110,040 (including at least 103,740 in Gaza and 6,300 in the West Bank, including 830 children). [It remains unknown how many Americans are among the casualties in Gaza.]

    Reported Israeli death toll from October 7, 2023 – November 16, 2024: ~1,579 (~1,139 on October 7, 2023, of which ~32 were Americans, and ~36 were children); 401*** military forces since the ground invasion began in Gaza (updated: Nov 2); 39 military and civilians in the West Bank, East Jerusalem, and Israel) and~10,000 injured.

    The death toll in Lebanon since October 8, 2023 is at least 3,452, with 14,599 injuries. An estimated 1.34 million have been displaced.

    NOTE: It is unknown at this time how many of the deaths and injuries of Israelis on October 7 were caused by Israeli soldiers.

    *Previously, IAK did not include 471 Gazans killed in the Al Ahli hospital blast since the source of the projectile was being disputed. However, given that much evidence points to Israel as the culprit, Israel had previously bombed the hospital and has attacked many others, Israel is prohibiting outside experts from investigating the scene, and since the UN and other agencies are including the deaths from the attack in their cumulative totals, if Americans knew is now also doing so.

    **Euro-Med Monitor reports that Gaza’s elderly are dying at an alarmingly high rate. The majority die at home and are buried either close to their residences or in makeshift graves dispersed across the Strip. There are currently more than 140 such cemeteries. Additionally, according to Euromed, thousands have died from starvation, malnourishment, and inadequate medical care; these are considered indirect victims as they were not registered in hospitals.

    ***The figure does not include the reportedly 56 Israeli soldiers – nearly 16% of the total Israeli military deaths – killed due to friendly fire in Gaza and other military-related accidents.

    † For most of the conflict, women and children accounted for about 70% of deaths in Gaza, with children making up a little over 40% of those killed, according to official statistics.

  • Israel blocks food aid, rejects ‘biased’ warning of famine in Gaza – Day 399
    [email protected] November 10, 2024 Adham Al-Masri, famine, humanitarian aid, starvation in gaza


    “The rocket struck them. There were no wanted or targeted people there and there was nobody else in the street. Just the children who were killed,” said Mohammed Zanoun, a relative of the dead children.

    Among the dead were two journalist siblings – Ahmad Abu Sakhil and Zahra Abu Sakhil – together with their father, Muhammad. The number of journalists killed since October 2023 stands at 188.

    NOTE: The UN Human Rights Office recently stated that it has found close to 70 per cent of the dead in Gaza to be children and women, indicating a systematic violation of the fundamental principles of international humanitarian law, including distinction and proportionality.



    Israeli forces execute three Gaza detainees shortly after release

    Israeli occupation forces executed three Palestinians from the Gaza Strip this afternoon, shortly after releasing them from detention. The men had been detained during Israel’s military offensive on northern Gaza in early October.

    According to local sources and eyewitnesses, the detainees were freed from Israeli custody at the Zikim military base near the northern Gaza border. After their release, the Israeli navy targeted the three men with gunfire from warships as they were near Al-Khalidi Mosque, along the coastal road northwest of Gaza City.

    The victims, identified as two elderly men, Ali and Nadi Ma’arouf, and young man Hamza Al-Hato, were transferred to the Shifa Medical Complex in Gaza City, where their bodies were received.

    Ethnic cleansing taking place during news void in north Gaza: Media group

    The New York-based Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ) says Israel has stepped up systematic attacks on journalists and media infrastructure since the start of its northern Gaza campaign.

    Israeli strikes killed at least five journalists in October and Israeli forces began a smear campaign against six Al Jazeera journalists reporting on the north, it said.

    “There are now almost no professional journalists left in the north to document what several international institutions have described as an ethnic cleansing campaign. Israel has not allowed international media independent access to Gaza in the 13 months since the war began,” CPJ said in a statement.

    “It seems clear that the systematic attacks on the media and campaign to discredit those few journalists who remain is a deliberate tactic to prevent the world from seeing what Israel is doing there,” said CPJ Program Director Carlos Martinez de la Serna.

    “Reporters are crucial in bearing witness during a war, without them the world won’t be able to write history.”

    Israeli Soldiers Kill A Palestinian In Tubas

    On Saturday, Israeli soldiers killed a Palestinian and injured two others in ‘Aqqaba town, north of Tubas, in the occupied West Bank’s northeastern part.

    Media sources reported that the invasion was initially conducted by undercover soldiers who surrounded a home while military helicopters and drones flew overhead and over several areas of Tubas.

    The sources added that the soldiers attacked the surrounded home with live fire, causing extensive damage, killing Adham Zayed Ezzat Al-Masri, 25, before taking his body away.

    The soldiers also fired barrages of live rounds during the invasion, wounding a 50-year-old Palestinian with a live round to the chest. Medics rushed him to a hospital where his wounds were described as serious.

    Additionally, the soldiers assaulted another 49-year-old Palestinian, causing lacerations and bruises to several parts of his body.

    Since the beginning of the Israeli military onslaught against the Gaza Strip on October 7, 2023, Israeli forces have killed 781 Palestinians in the West Bank, including 167 children, and injured 6,300.

    For several months, Israeli officials have given briefings about the war in Gaza to Jared Kushner, Mr. Trump’s son-in-law, who worked on Middle East issues during his first term, and David Friedman, who served as Mr. Trump’s ambassador to Israel, said two Israeli officials, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive meetings.

    Another journalist killed by Israeli forces in Gaza

    Israeli forces have killed yet another Palestinian journalist in the Gaza Strip as the regime pushes on with its onslaught on the territory.

    On Friday, Gaza’s Government Media Office said the journalist was a local radio broadcaster.

    Khaled Abu Zir’s death raised the number of journalists and media workers killed by Israel in Gaza to 184 since October 2023.

    The media office called on the international community to hold the regime to account for its crimes against Palestinians, especially journalists.

    The Palestinian Journalists Protection Center (PJPC) said on Saturday that the Israeli war on the besieged territory has been the deadliest for members of the press than any other conflict over the past eight decades.

    The PJPC also said that “the killing has become the main weapon to silence journalists in Gaza.”

    An estimated 10 percent of all journalists working in Gaza have been killed since October 2023, as the Israeli authorities still ban the entry of foreign media workers.

    Israeli hooligans provoke clashes in Amsterdam after chanting anti-Palestinian slogans

    NOTE: Mainstream media have painted the Israeli soccer fans in Amsterdam as victims of antisemitic attacks. Below are accounts by eyewitnesses who indicate that the Israeli fans instigated violence, and “antisemitism” was not involved; rather, the focus of the protests was the genocide in Gaza.

    For more on the media bias pervasive during this war, start with this and this; for more on the decades-long pro-Israel media bias, check out this and this.

    Israeli hooligans provoked clashes with Dutch youth in Amsterdam on Thursday after they chanted racist anti-Arab slogans, tore down Palestinian flags and ignored a minute of silence for the Spanish flood victims.

    Travelling Maccabi Tel Aviv fans stirred trouble on Wednesday and Thursday in different parts of of the Dutch capital ahead of their Uefa Europa League match against Amsterdam club Ajax.

    Hooligans were seen removing at least two Palestinian flags from what appeared to be the front of local residents’ homes a night before the match, according to the AD daily newspaper.

    An Arab taxi driver was also attacked by mobs who appeared to be with the Israeli fans, although police said they couldn’t identify the nationality of the attackers as no arrests were made.

    A group of Israeli fans gathered in the Dam Square on Wednesday were filmed sparking confrontations with locals, shouting “Fuck you” at some of them and “Fuck you Palestine”.

    Ahead of the match on Thursday, fans heading to the Johan Cruyff Arena stadium were seen shouting: “Let the IDF [Israeli army] fuck the Arabs”.

    They also refused to participate in a minute of silence before kick-off for at least 200 people who died in the Valencia floods.

    The police have not made any known arrests of the Israeli fans involved in provocative act ahead of the match.

    Nicholas McGeehan, who is a founder of FairSquare, highlighted the track record of racist chanting by Maccabi Tel Aviv fans and criticised how Dutch authorities painted them as “innocent victims of antisemitism.”

    “Israel’s most senior leaders, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, have openly courted far-right football supporters in Israel and have received their violent support in return. The well-documented racism and violence exhibited by Maccabi Tel Aviv fans in Amsterdam mirrors the thuggery of the Israeli government in Gaza and Lebanon,” McGeehan told MEE.

    “This does not excuse the violence that was meted out to Maccabi Tel Aviv fans, but to present them as innocent victims of antisemitism is a gross misrepresentation of the facts.

    “To rid European football of the type of genocidal chanting we saw from Maccabi Tel Aviv fans, Uefa should remind the Israel Football Association of its obligations under article 7(7) of its statutes to stamp out racist behaviour, and impose appropriate sanctions if the IFA does not take action.”




    Israeli forces’ lethal tactics in occupied West Bank ‘exceed law enforcement standards,’ UN warns


    The UN on Friday reported an escalation of Israeli army’s actions in the occupied West Bank, warning that it seems to “exceed law enforcement standards.”

    Citing the Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), UN deputy spokesperson Stephanie Tremblay said at a news conference that “multiple operations by Israeli forces in the north this week included air strikes and other lethal war-like tactics, which appear to exceed law enforcement standards.”

    “According to initial information, eight Palestinians were killed and four others injured during Tuesday’s operations in Jenin, Tubas and Tulkarm,” she added.

    Meanwhile, Tremblay reported that from Oct. 29 to Nov. 4, “Israeli settlers carried out 35 attacks against Palestinians that caused casualties or property damage, including olive trees that were vandalized.”

    After Months of Debate – Wikipedia Describes Israel’s War on Gaza as ‘Genocide’

    Wikipedia has decided to rename the page – initially titled ‘Genocide allegations in the 2023 Israeli assault on Gaza’ to simply ‘Gaza Genocide’.

    This change follows a community vote among contributors to the free, open-content online encyclopedia, which is written and edited by an international body of volunteers.

    Drawing on expert opinions, Wikipedia editors, determined there was enough evidence from scholars and human rights organizations, like Amnesty International, to substantiate the term “genocide” in the page title.

    Though this change does not hold legal significance, it could impact global public opinion culturally and politically.

    The updated ‘Gaza Genocide’ article references nearly 800 sources, including human rights and field reports. Among these, several reports come from The Palestine Chronicle’s coverage of the war.

    Additionally, the page highlights references made by Israeli politicians, such as Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s invocation of the ‘Amalekites’ from biblical texts, stirring further discourse on Israel’s intentions.

    Translated into 16 languages, including Arabic, Turkish, French, Spanish, Chinese, and Indonesian, the page begins by noting that “experts, governments, UN agencies, and NGOs have accused Israel of committing genocide against the Palestinian people in the ongoing war.”



    More scandals emerge from Netanyahu’s office, including spies, blackmail, top secret documents

    Informed sources revealed to Israel’s Yedioth Ahronoth newspaper that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office may be involved in intimidating and blackmailing an army officer to obtain top secret documents.

    The involvement of two senior officials in Netanyahu’s office in obtaining and publishing sensitive materials from surveillance cameras related to a senior army officer is being investigated.

    According to the sources, investigations are underway to determine whether this is another incident in which senior officials ignored procedures, instructed subordinates to act against the rules and violated basic information security and privacy protection principles.

    The sources shared: “Spies were recruited by Netanyahu’s office in the Israeli army to steal top secret documents and transfer them to the office, followed by forged publication in the media to serve the narrative against the hostage deal.”

    The newspaper revealed that two senior officials in the Prime Minister’s Office were found to have embarrassing personal documents pertaining to a senior officer in the Israeli army.

    It noted that the former spokesperson for the Israeli prime minister, Eliezer Feldstein, who is suspected of involvement in leaking secret documents to the press, had previously been dismissed from the Israeli army during his reserve service at the beginning of the Gaza war.

    Netanyahu appoints hardline backer of settlements as Israeli envoy to US

    Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu appointed Yechiel Leiter as Israel’s ambassador to Washington on Friday, replacing current ambassador Michael Herzog.

    Leiter is considered close to Netanyahu and previously served as Netanyahu’s chief of staff.

    Leiter was born in the US and immigrated to Israel about 40 years ago. He actively supports settlements, especially in the Old City of Hebron, and lives in the Eli settlement in the occupied West Bank.

    A statement issued by Netanyahu’s office said that Leiter has a profound knowledge of the US administration and society, noting that Leiter’s son was killed during the war on Gaza a year ago.

    According to the statement by the Prime Minister’s office: “Yechiel Leiter is a talented diplomat, an articulate speaker and has a deep understanding of American culture and politics.

    “I am convinced he will represent the State of Israel in the best way and wish him luck in his new role.”

    STATISTICS OCTOBER 7, 2023 – NOVEMBER 8, 2024:

    Palestinian death toll from October 7, 2023 – November 8, 2024: at least 44,331* ( 43,552 in Gaza* – 69% are women and children, according to Gaza’s Media Office). [The Ministry’s figures have been contested by the Israeli authorities, although they have been accepted as accurate by Israeli intelligence services, the UN, and WHO. These data are supported by independent analyses, comparing changes in the number of deaths of UN Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) staff with those reported by the Ministry, which found claims of data fabrication implausible.]

    This is expected to be a significant undercount since thousands of those killed have yet to be identified. This does not include an estimated 10,000 more in Gaza still buried under rubble (4,900 women and children).

    In the West Bank, Israeli soldiers and/or settlers have killed at least 779 Palestinians (~167 of them children).

    In July 2024, the Lancet said: “Applying a conservative estimate of four indirect deaths per one direct death to the 37,396 deaths reported, it is not implausible to estimate that up to 186,000 or even more deaths could be attributable to the current conflict in Gaza.

    Ralph Nader earlier estimated 300,000 Palestinians may have been killed in Gaza.

    At least 45 Palestinians have died in Israeli prisons (27 from Gaza, 25 from West Bank).
    At least 41 Palestinians have died due to malnutrition (at least 37 of them children)**.
    About 1.9 million of Gaza’s 2.3 million population are currently displaced.
    About 345,000 Gazans are currently experiencing catastrophic levels of food insecurity.
    Palestinian injuries from October 7 – November 8, 2024: at least 109,065 (including at least 102,765 in Gaza and 6,300 in the West Bank, including 830 children). [It remains unknown how many Americans are among the casualties in Gaza.]

    Reported Israeli death toll from October 7, 2023 – November 8, 2024: ~1,574 (~1,139 on October 7, 2023, of which ~32 were Americans, and ~36 were children); 396*** military forces since the ground invasion began in Gaza (most recent: Nov 2); 39 military and civilians in the West Bank, East Jerusalem, and Israel) and~10,000 injured.

    The death toll in Lebanon since October 8, 2023 is at least 3,117, with 13,888 injuries. An estimated 1.34 million have been displaced.

    NOTE: It is unknown at this time how many of the deaths and injuries of Israelis on October 7 were caused by Israeli soldiers.

    *Previously, IAK did not include 471 Gazans killed in the Al Ahli hospital blast since the source of the projectile was being disputed. However, given that much evidence points to Israel as the culprit, Israel had previously bombed the hospital and has attacked many others, Israel is prohibiting outside experts from investigating the scene, and since the UN and other agencies are including the deaths from the attack in their cumulative totals, if Americans knew is now also doing so.

    **Euro-Med Monitor reports that Gaza’s elderly are dying at an alarmingly high rate. The majority die at home and are buried either close to their residences or in makeshift graves dispersed across the Strip. There are currently more than 140 such cemeteries. Additionally, according to Euromed, thousands have died from starvation, malnourishment, and inadequate medical care; these are considered indirect victims as they were not registered in hospitals.

    ***The figure does not include the reportedly 56 Israeli soldiers – nearly 16% of the total Israeli military deaths – killed due to friendly fire in Gaza and other military-related accidents.

    † For most of the conflict, women and children accounted for about 70% of deaths in Gaza, with children making up a little over 40% of those killed, according to official statistics.

    Palestinians will not be allowed to return to homes in northern Gaza, says Israeli military

    Israeli ground forces are getting closer to “the complete evacuation” of northern Gaza and residents will not be allowed to return home, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) has said, in what appears to be the first official acknowledgment from Israel it is systematically removing Palestinians from the area.

    In a media briefing on Tuesday night, the IDF Brig Gen Itzik Cohen told Israeli reporters that since troops had been forced to enter some areas twice, such as Jabaliya camp, “there is no intention of allowing the residents of the northern Gaza Strip to return to their homes”.

    He added that humanitarian aid would be allowed to “regularly” enter the south of the territory but not the north, since there are “no more civilians left”.

    International humanitarian law experts have said that such actions would amount to the war crimes of forcible transfer and the use of food as a weapon.

    Israeli Strike on Home in Northern Gaza Kills 25, Including 13 Children

    An Israeli strike on a home in Beit Lahiya, northern Gaza, killed at least 25 Palestinians, including 13 children, the Palestinian news agency WAFA reported on Tuesday.

    Medical sources told WAFA that people are still missing under the rubble, meaning the death toll could rise. Dr. Hussam Abu Safia, the director of the nearby Kamal Adwan Hospital, which has come under repeated Israeli attacks, said the home that was targeted was sheltering several displaced Palestinian families.

    According to The Associated Press, Israel claimed it targeted a weapons storage facility but, as usual, offered no evidence for the claim.

    Israel dropped over 85,000 tons of bombs inside Gaza since start of genocide

    The Israeli military has dropped more than 85,000 tons of bombs inside the besieged Gaza Strip since the start of the genocide of Palestinians in Gaza in October 2023, according to a statement by the Palestinian Environment Quality Authority.

    Palestinian officials say the continuous bombing “has caused the destruction of vast areas of agricultural land and contaminated soil with toxic chemicals, which will hinder agriculture in the enclave for decades.”

    Furthermore, the officials say Israeli attacks have caused significant damage to Gaza’s water sources, “causing polluted water to seep into groundwater basins, [posing] a health and environmental crisis that endangers hundreds of thousands of residents for future generations.”

    Earlier this year, the UN warned that removing tens of millions of tons of rubble left in the aftermath of Israel’s bombardment could take 15 years and cost between $500-600 million. Moreover, rebuilding destroyed homes could take at least until 2040.

    In economic terms, the UN Conference on Trade and Development said in a report released last month that if the war ends soon and Gaza returns to the status quo before 7 October 2023, it could take 350 years for its economy to return to its precarious prewar level.

    Israel signs $5.2B deal to acquire advanced F-15 fighter jets

    Israel, which continues to strike both Gaza and Lebanon, announced signing a deal to purchase 25 next generation F-15 fighter jets from US aviation giant Boeing.

    In a statement, the Defense Ministry said the agreement, signed on Wednesday, is part of a broader aid package approved by the US administration and Congress earlier this year and includes an option for 25 additional aircraft.

    The jets will be “equipped with cutting-edge weapon systems” and integrated with advanced Israeli technologies, the statement said.

    According to the ministry, the upgraded aircraft will help the air force “maintain its strategic superiority in addressing current and future challenges in the Middle East.”

    Delivery of the aircraft will begin in 2031, with four to six aircraft to be supplied annually.

    New criminal probe alleges Netanyahu tried to make discussions of the war “untraceable”

    Israeli police are investigating “criminal incidents” reportedly linked to meetings held by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s cabinet at the start of the war on Gaza in October last year, Israeli media reported on 5 November.

    “The police’s Lahav 433 investigation unit is conducting a criminal probe related to incidents from the start of the war, including several open investigations,” a police statement said, adding that further details remain under gag order and are barred from publication.

    The Times of Israel added that reports appearing in Hebrew media earlier this year claimed that Netanyahu had been “attempting to keep his conversations regarding the management of the war in Gaza untraceable.”

    Senior figures in the security establishment allegedly fear that efforts were being made to edit the minutes of wartime discussions held with Netanyahu after discovering discrepancies between transcripts of the meetings and what officials in attendance had heard first-hand.

    Knesset Passes Law to Deport Relatives of Resistance Fighters for Up to 20 Years

    Israel’s Knesset approved a bill on Wednesday to allow the deportation of relatives of resistance fighters (their word: “terrorists”) from Israel for up to 20 years. A temporary five-year provision was also passed, enabling the imprisonment of minors under 14 years of age who are convicted of homicide as part of a terror act.

    It was proposed by Likud lawmaker Hanoch Milwidsky, and states that family members may be deported by the Interior Minister to to Gaza “or another destination determined by the circumstances” if it is found that they “knew in advance of the [so-called] terrorist’s plan and did not take necessary measures to prevent it.”

    The interior minister would also have the authority to deport a relative who “expressed support or sympathy for the act of [so-called] terrorism or published praise, admiration, or encouragement.” A decision on the deportation will be made after a hearing.

    The law, which was fast-tracked, is considered extreme, and the Attorney General’s office did not issue an opinion on it after a representative claimed that despite the Attorney General’s request, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s position on the matter was not submitted.

    The law applies to the immediate family of [so-called] terrorists: parents, siblings, children, and spouses. Israeli citizens who meet the criteria will be deported for at least seven years and up to 15 years. Non-citizen deportees will face a minimum of 10 years and up to 20 years. Additionally, the police will have the authority to enforce deportations, “including the power to enter any premises, remove individuals, and use reasonable force.”

    NOTE: The use of the word “terrorist” for a group that resists occupation and oppression is a political, not fact-based choice. In reality, international law supports the efforts of resistance groups against an occupying power, the UN extending that right to the point of armed resistance. Hamas has clearly and openly stated that its enemy is not the Jewish people, but the supremacist ideology of Zionism – the ideology under which Israel dispossessed 750,000 Palestinian people and exiled them to Gaza and other locations.

    UN signals to Israel: Replacing UNRWA would be your responsibility

    The United Nations responded to Israel’s decision to cut ties with the Palestinian relief agency (UNRWA), by saying it has no responsibility to replace the agency’s operations in Gaza and the West Bank, signalling it was Israel’s problem as the occupying power, according to a letter excerpt seen by Reuters.

    Under a new law, Israel ended a 1967 cooperation agreement with UNRWA that covered the protection, movement and diplomatic immunity of the Agency. The law will also ban UNRWA’s operations in Israel from late January. UNRWA has said that its operations in Gaza and the West Bank are now at risk of collapse.

    “I would note, as a general point, that it is not our responsibility to replace UNRWA, nor do we have the capacity to do so,” UN Secretary-General, Antonio Guterres’ chef de cabinet, Courtenay Rattray, wrote to a senior Israeli foreign affairs official late on Tuesday.

    The mention of responsibility is a veiled reference to Israel’s obligations as an occupying power.

    The UN views Gaza and the West Bank as Israeli-occupied territory. International humanitarian law requires an occupying power to agree to relief programs for people in need and to facilitate them “by all the means at its disposal” and ensure food, medical care, hygiene and public health standards.

    NOTE: According to the Congressional Research Service, UNRWA’s budget for 2023 alone was $1.47 billion.

    Israeli Settler Kills Palestinian, Israeli Forces Kill Another

    Israeli forces killed a Palestinian man, on Wednesday night, injured several citizens and abducted others, during a prolonged military assault on the northern West Bank city of Jenin and its refugee camp.

    The Palestinian Health Ministry announced that the citizen, Abdullah Mohammad Saeed Saadi, 53, succumbed to a critical gunshot wound inflicted on him by occupation forces.

    The Palestinian Red Crescent Society (PRCS) said that its ambulance crews transported a critically injured citizen to hospital for treatment, while sources at the Ibn Sina Hospital said that they received a seriously injured man who was shot in the thigh, later announcing his death.

    The PRCS added that occupation forces shot Saadi with three live rounds while he was in the “Hursh Al-Sa’ada” neighborhood in the western part of Jenin city.

    On Wednesday afternoon, an Israeli colonizer killed a Palestinian man after an alleged car-ramming attempt near the illegal “Shilo” colony, built on citizens’ lands northeast of Ramallah in the central occupied West Bank.

    The General Authority of Civil Affairs informed the Palestinian Health Ministry that the young man, Harith Khaled Abdullah Jabara, 32, succumbed to critical gunshot wounds during an alleged car-ramming attempt.

    The Health Ministry announced that occupation forces shot Jabara after his vehicle crashed at the entrance to the “Shilo” settlement, near the town of Turmus Ayya, injuring two Israeli colonizers.

    Israeli media reported that two Israeli settlers sustained minor injuries, while an armed colonizer shot and killed the suspect after he exited his vehicle.

    Since the beginning of the Israeli military onslaught against the Gaza Strip on October 7, 2023, Israeli forces have killed 777 Palestinians in the West Bank, including 167 children, and injured 6,300.

    Election: In Dearborn, Rashida Tlaib Did Nearly Twice as Well as Kamala Harris

    Harris refused to distance herself from the Biden administration’s support of Israel’s war on Gaza. Tlaib railed against it.

    Voters in the biggest U.S. city with an Arab-majority population shifted decisively toward Donald Trump on Tuesday, in a stinging rebuke of the Biden administration’s policies in the Middle East.

    Trump claimed 43 percent of the vote in Dearborn, Michigan, to Kamala Harris’s 36 percent. Jill Stein claimed 15 percent of the vote in the city, where the Green Party had notched less than 1 percent in 2020.

    Trump’s margin of victory in Dearborn represents a massive reversal from the 2020 election, when Joe Biden won 69 percent to Trump’s 30.

    The huge shift toward Trump will not be decisive in a race where he cruised to a Electoral College victory without the help of Michigan, the state with the highest percentage of Arab Americans. The state had yet to be called Wednesday morning.

    Still, it was a telling sign of how completely the administration has lost Arab Americans over the war.

    Down-ballot results suggest that the move was motivated in large part by anger toward the Biden administration rather than dissatisfaction with Democratic policies overall.

    Letter to U of Minnesota admin protesting suspension of students for protesting Gaza War

    Dear President Cunningham and Colleagues:

    We write on behalf of the Middle East Studies Association of North America (MESA) and its Committee on Academic Freedom to express our concern about the decision of the administration of the University of Minnesota (UMN) to indefinitely suspend eight students who participated in an occupation of a university building, Morrill Hall, on 21 October 2024.

    Whatever one thinks of the students’ action, we regard the university’s decision to bar them from classes, dormitories, dining halls and campus jobs as an unduly harsh sanction that violates their rights to education and sustenance.

    The fact that this sanction was imposed without the students having had the opportunity to defend their actions in a properly conducted disciplinary process makes it all the more egregious.

    The university’s actions in this regard seem aimed at deterring students from exercising the dictates of their conscience on matters of urgent public concern. They also contravene the University of Minnesota’s laudable tradition of countenancing contentious student protests…

    STATISTICS OCTOBER 7, 2023 – NOVEMBER 6, 2024:

    Palestinian death toll from October 7, 2023 – November 6, 2024: at least 44,159* ( 43,391 in Gaza* – 69% are women and children, according to Gaza’s Media Office). [The Ministry’s figures have been contested by the Israeli authorities, although they have been accepted as accurate by Israeli intelligence services, the UN, and WHO. These data are supported by independent analyses, comparing changes in the number of deaths of UN Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) staff with those reported by the Ministry, which found claims of data fabrication implausible.]

    This is expected to be a significant undercount since thousands of those killed have yet to be identified – and at least 778 in the West Bank (~166 children). This does not include an estimated 10,000 more in Gaza still buried under rubble (4,900 women and children).

    In July 2024, the Lancet said: “Applying a conservative estimate of four indirect deaths per one direct death to the 37,396 deaths reported, it is not implausible to estimate that up to 186,000 or even more deaths could be attributable to the current conflict in Gaza.

    Ralph Nader earlier estimated 300,000 Palestinians may have been killed in Gaza.

    At least 45 Palestinians have died in Israeli prisons (27 from Gaza, 25 from West Bank).
    At least 41 Palestinians have died due to malnutrition (at least 37 of them children)**.
    About 1.9 million of Gaza’s 2.3 million population are currently displaced.
    Almost 500,000 Gazans are currently experiencing catastrophic levels of food insecurity.
    Palestinian injuries from October 7 – November 6, 2024: at least 108,647 (including at least 102,347 in Gaza and 6,300 in the West Bank, including 830 children). [It remains unknown how many Americans are among the casualties in Gaza.]

    Reported Israeli death toll from October 7, 2023 – November 6, 2024: ~1,574 (~1,139 on October 7, 2023, of which ~32 were Americans, and ~36 were children); 396*** military forces since the ground invasion began in Gaza (most recent: Nov 2); 39 military and civilians in the West Bank, East Jerusalem, and Israel) and~10,000 injured.

    The death toll in Lebanon since October 8, 2023 is at least 3,050, with 13,658 injuries. An estimated 1.34 million have been displaced.

    NOTE: It is unknown at this time how many of the deaths and injuries of Israelis on October 7 were caused by Israeli soldiers.

    *Previously, IAK did not include 471 Gazans killed in the Al Ahli hospital blast since the source of the projectile was being disputed. However, given that much evidence points to Israel as the culprit, Israel had previously bombed the hospital and has attacked many others, Israel is prohibiting outside experts from investigating the scene, and since the UN and other agencies are including the deaths from the attack in their cumulative totals, if Americans knew is now also doing so.

    **Euro-Med Monitor reports that Gaza’s elderly are dying at an alarmingly high rate. The majority die at home and are buried either close to their residences or in makeshift graves dispersed across the Strip. There are currently more than 140 such cemeteries. Additionally, according to Euromed, thousands have died from starvation, malnourishment, and inadequate medical care; these are considered indirect victims as they were not registered in hospitals.

    ***The figure does not include the reportedly 56 Israeli soldiers – nearly 16% of the total Israeli military deaths – killed due to friendly fire in Gaza and other military-related accidents.

    † For most of the conflict, women and children accounted for about 70% of deaths in Gaza, with children making up a little over 40% of those killed, according to official statistics.

In a media briefing on Tuesday night, the IDF Brig Gen Itzik Cohen told Israeli reporters that since troops had been forced to enter some areas twice, such as Jabaliya camp, “there is no intention of allowing the residents of the northern Gaza Strip to return to their homes”. He added that humanitarian aid would be allowed to “regularly” enter the south of the territory but not the north, since there are “no more civilians left”. International humanitarian law experts have said that such actions would amount to the war crimes of forcible transfer and the use of food as a weapon. (Read the full article here.) Israeli Strike on Home in Northern Gaza Kills 25, Including 13 Children An Israeli strike on a home in Beit Lahiya, northern Gaza, killed at least 25 Palestinians, including 13 children, the Palestinian news agency WAFA reported on Tuesday. Medical sources told WAFA that people are still missing under the rubble, meaning the death toll could rise. Dr. Hussam Abu Safia, the director of the nearby Kamal Adwan Hospital, which has come under repeated Israeli attacks, said the home that was targeted was sheltering several displaced Palestinian families. According to The Associated Press, Israel claimed it targeted a weapons storage facility but, as usual, offered no evidence for the claim.

Letter to U of Minnesota admin protesting suspension of students for protesting Gaza War Dear President Cunningham and Colleagues: We write on behalf of the Middle East Studies Association of North America (MESA) and its Committee on Academic Freedom to express our concern about the decision of the administration of the University of Minnesota (UMN) to indefinitely suspend eight students who participated in an occupation of a university building, Morrill Hall, on 21 October 2024. Whatever one thinks of the students’ action, we regard the university’s decision to bar them from classes, dormitories, dining halls and campus jobs as an unduly harsh sanction that violates their rights to education and sustenance. The fact that this sanction was imposed without the students having had the opportunity to defend their actions in a properly conducted disciplinary process makes it all the more egregious. The university’s actions in this regard seem aimed at deterring students from exercising the dictates of their conscience on matters of urgent public concern. They also contravene the University of Minnesota’s laudable tradition of countenancing contentious student protests… (Read the full letter here.)

    In Gaza, at least 61 people were killed in Israeli attacks on Tuesday.

    In the West Bank, at least 7 people were killed in an Israeli military raid and air attacks.



    Palestinian Civil Defense seeks global help after receiving appeals about people trapped alive under rubble in Gaza

    The Palestinian Civil Defense reported on Tuesday, “We are receiving urgent pleas about the presence of survivors under the debris of some homes and residential buildings that were demolished by the Israeli occupation (forces) in the Beit Lahia project area in northern Gaza,” and called for “international human rights and humanitarian organizations to intervene urgently to allow access for rescue teams and work to save those trapped beneath the rubble.”

    The Civil Defense added, “Citizens in northern Gaza are facing death and Israeli extermination in silence, while the occupation has entirely disrupted our teams’ operations, confiscated their vehicles and equipment, displaced them, and arrested some,” and described Israel’s actions as a “flagrant violation of international humanitarian law.”

    The agency noted that for the 14th consecutive day, the Israeli army has prevented teams from conducting their operations in northern Gaza.

    Key Highlights from weekly Gaza report: UN office for humanitarian affairs

    For almost a month, all attempts by humanitarian organizations to deliver food to people in the besieged areas of North Gaza governorate have been blocked by the Israeli authorities.
    In central and southern Gaza, more than 100 kitchens producing 400,000 meals a day are at risk of shutting down due to supply shortages.
    Health-care conditions in North Gaza remain critical with the Kamal Adwan Hospital hit twice in the past week and the delivery of life-saving supplies to the Al Awda Hospital denied.
    Over 42 million tons of rubble and a large concentration of explosive hazards pose an imminent threat to civilians, while the entry of specialized personnel and equipment and the conduct of explosive ordnance disposal activities are restricted.
    Ten per cent of all journalists working in Gaza have been killed since October 2023, reports the Palestinian Journalists Syndicate, as the Israeli authorities still ban the entry of foreign journalists.
    Two elderly Palestinians in northern Gaza die waiting at Israeli checkpoint

    The two elderly individuals, both ill and in wheelchairs, passed away in the afternoon as they waited for several hours at the checkpoint, witnesses said.

    They had been trying to cross the Israeli checkpoint with their families and other displaced Palestinians from the town of Beit Lahia, they added.

    The two elders were held by Israeli forces at the checkpoint near the Civil Administration area east of the Jabalia refugee camp, enduring hours-long delays .

    Witnesses said that the displaced people, including the two elders, were forced to wait for long hours under the sun in harsh conditions at the Israeli checkpoint, as they sought passage following Israeli warnings for residents to evacuate the area.

    Early Tuesday, the Israeli army dropped leaflets over several neighborhoods in Beit Lahia, ordering residents and displaced people to evacuate the area and head south via Salah al-Din Road, east of the Jabalia refugee camp.

    West Bank: Israeli operation that killed 8 Palestinians ‘involved lethal war-like tactics’

    At least eight people were killed in an Israeli military raid and air attacks on the occupied West Bank.

    UN chief’s spokesperson Stephane Dujarric said that Tuesday’s operations in Jenin “involved lethal war-like tactics”.

    At least seven people have been killed after Israeli forces carried out a raid in the occupied West Bank.

    Dujarric added that the operation “seems to exceed law enforcement standards”.

    “This has included air strikes and shoulder-fired explosive projectiles, resulting in fatalities.”

    The dead included Hani Ali Bani Awda, 52, who was killed and dismembered when Israeli forces fired anti-tank grenades at his home in the town of Tamoun, south of Tubas, and Aref Mohammed Aref Bani Awda, 40.

    Mohammad Hassan Musa Asous, 44, and Shawqi Fayyad Hassan Asous, 40, were assassinated by Israeli forces in the village of Ash-Shuhada, southwest of Jenin.

    Also on Tuesday, Israeli forces killed four Palestinian men during a brutal attack on the town of Qabatiya, south of Jenin in the northern West Bank: Abdullah Khaled Abu Zaid, 22, Majdi Hamza Saba’neh and Omar Mustafa Saba’neh, and Nasr Kamil.

    Israel builds military outposts in Gaza

    After weeks of footage showing the Israeli occupation army demolishing the homes of displaced Palestinians in southern Gaza, Israel’s Channel 14 reported yesterday that the occupation state has now begun building military outposts in Rafah.


    Netanyahu sacks defense minister Gallant; his replacement is anti-Palestinian to the core

    Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu fired Defense Minister Yoav Gallant on 5 November, citing a lack of mutual trust and disagreements on the “management” of the war in Gaza and Lebanon.

    In a one-sentence letter handed to Gallant personally, Netanyahu tells the outgoing war chief, “Your tenure will end 48 hours from the receipt of this letter.” “I would like to thank you for your service as defense minister,” the letter, released by the premier’s office, concludes.

    “Unfortunately, although in the first months of the war there was trust and there was very fruitful work, during the last months this trust cracked between me and the Defense Minister,” Netanyahu said in a video statement released Tuesday night.

    He also accused Gallant of indirectly aiding Israel’s enemies.

    “I made many attempts to bridge these gaps, but they kept getting wider,” he said. “They also came to the knowledge of the public in an unacceptable way, and worse than that, they came to the knowledge of the enemy — our enemies enjoyed it and derived a lot of benefit from it.”

    Foreign Minister Israel Katz will replace Gallant as head of the defense ministry. Gideon Saar, a minister without a portfolio who was recently rumored to be Gallant’s replacement, will be appointed as foreign minister.

    Three of Gallant’s most prominent remarks that have drawn international scrutiny and allegations of potential violations of international law:

    On Oct. 9, 2023, Gallant announced a “complete siege” on Gaza, saying: “There will be no electricity, no food, no water, no fuel. Everything is closed.” (A severe blockade has sparked international criticism, with concerns that it constitutes collective punishment, which is prohibited under international law.)
    In the same announcement, Gallant referred to Hamas militants as “human animals,” declaring: “We are fighting human animals, and we are acting accordingly.” (The language has been condemned for its dehumanizing tone, which could incite violence against civilians.)
    In August 2023, Gallant warned of potential action against Hezbollah, stating that Israel could “return Lebanon to the Stone Age” if attacked. (That remark was interpreted as a threat to use disproportionate force against civilian infrastructure.)
    Israel Katz, a member of Netanyahu’s Likud party, has already taken some memorable actions against Palestinians, including:

    Two days after October 7th, Katz issued an order to “immediately cut off the water supply from Israel to Gaza,” adding, “Electricity and fuel were cut off yesterday…All the civilian population in Gaza is ordered to leave immediately. We will win. They will not receive a drop of water or a single battery until they leave.”
    Katz also declared UN Secretary-General António Guterres “persona non grata in Israel” for criticizing the country’s war on Gaza.
    While serving as Israel’s foreign minister, he threatened “severe consequences” for nations that officially recognize Palestinian statehood. Nearly 150 of the 193 United Nations member states recognize Palestine.
    In 2022, as a member of the legislature he said, “Yesterday I warned the Arab students, who are flying Palestine flags at universities: Remember 48. Remember our independence war and your Nakba, don’t stretch the rope too much. […] If you don’t calm down, we’ll teach you a lesson that won’t be forgotten.”
    In one of his final acts as foreign minister, Katz on Monday initiated the process of annulling the 1967 agreement between Israel and the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA).

    52 Nations Call for Global Arms Embargo on Israel

    The Foreign Ministry of Turkiye sent the UN a letter signed by 52 nations and two organizations calling for a halt in military transfers to Israel, stating the Israeli army is committing genocide against Palestinians in Gaza.

    Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan called for the arms embargo on Israel while speaking at a news conference in Djibouti on 1 November.

    While attending the Turkiye–Africa collaboration meeting, Fidan announced that the group letter was sent to the UN and that it must be “repeated at every opportunity that selling arms to Israel means participating in its genocide.”

    Israeli settlers acquire hundreds of high-caliber rifles to ‘prepare for war’ in West Bank

    Israeli settler and leader of the Samaria Regional Council in the occupied Palestinian West Bank, Yossi Dagan, has purchased more than 500 rifles to arm emergency security teams, and is now working to further upgrade their equipment in preparation for a future war with Palestinians, Masar News reported on 5 November.

    Dagan purchased dozens of advanced sniper rifles after raising almost one million shekels ($270,000) from supporters of the Council around the world.

    Masar News notes that “These moves indicate a major shift in the settlers’ strategy” and show the settlers’ readiness for war in the West Bank.

    Early last month, National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir announced that over 120,000 firearms have been distributed among Jewish settlers in the West Bank since the outbreak of the Gaza war last year.

    “Over 120,000 weapons were distributed to eligible citizens, while tens of thousands more received conditional approvals,” he said on his X account. “We intend to continue arming Israel. That’s what we did, and that’s what we’ll continue to do!”

    NOTE: Israel has illegally built around 280 settlements on Palestinian land in the occupied West Bank and East Jerusalem, which are home to more than 700,000 illegal settlers. Israeli settlements and settlers on Palestinian land are a violation of international law, and considered by many Palestinians to be the main barrier to any lasting peace agreement.

    Some settler groups, moreover, have a history of violence against Palestinians, often with the assistance of Israeli military forces.

    In a landmark advisory opinion on July 19, 2024, the International Court of Justice declared Israel’s decades-long occupation of Palestinian land “illegal” and demanded the evacuation of all settlements in the West Bank and East Jerusalem.

    Israel manages massive destruction in Lebanon, but no real “progress”

    According to Lebanon’s National News Agency (NNA) on 5 November,

    “Within the framework of the destructive war waged by the Israeli military on Lebanon, in an area roughly three kilometers deep that extends from Naqoura to Khiam, more than 37 towns have been totally wiped out, and more than 40,000 housing units have been completely destroyed” (emphasis added).

    Israel released footage on Monday showing the detonation of entire neighborhoods, and scores of houses in southern Lebanon’s Mays al-Jabal.

    Several videos of home demolitions carried out by Israeli forces have surfaced since Tel Aviv launched its failed ground operation in southern Lebanon, which began at the very start of October.

    Despite the destruction, Israeli forces have been unable to achieve the goal of pushing Hezbollah away from the border, establishing a buffer zone, and securing the return of tens of thousands of settlers who were evacuated from their northern settlements at the start of the war last year.

    Yedioth Ahronoth reported last week that despite deploying 50,000 soldiers to Lebanon, the army was unable to “capture even a single village.” It notes that five divisions were deployed, three times the force that was sent into south Lebanon and defeated in 2006.

    The Hebrew newspaper also reported on 4 November that Israel is facing a serious shortage of troops.

    Israeli attacks have killed 151 emergency workers in Lebanon

    The World Health Organization (WHO) says emergency medical services in Lebanon have reported 201 attacks over the past year following the hostilities between Israel and Hezbollah.

    The attacks have resulted in 151 deaths and 212 injuries, it said.

    The violence “is hindering the rescue and relief efforts, and ultimately contributing to high death rates,” it added.

    Medics in Lebanon have accused Israel of directly targeting them in attacks that rights experts say amount to war crimes.

    New Israeli Law Empowers Education Ministry to Immediately Dismiss Arab Teachers Suspected of Sympathy With “Terrorist” Orgs (like UNRWA)

    Israeli lawmakers passed a law on Tuesday authorizing the education minister to withdraw funding from schools where “expressions of sympathy with terrorist acts are occurring or being permitted.”

    The law also allows the Education Ministry’s director general to summarily dismiss teachers without prior notice if they “demonstrate sympathy with a terrorist organization” or “issue statements praising, supporting or encouraging” terrorist acts. The legislation passed with 55 votes in favor and 45 against.

    Following the law’s passage, Amit Halevi, who introduced the law, declared, “Today, the Knesset is taking the most crucial step in the war against our enemies: striking at terrorism’s strongest foundation – education.” He added, “This law will ensure that Israeli students are educated in justice, science, and compassion, rather than terrorism, injustice and barbarism.”

    NOTE: The Israeli government has declared a number of groups to be part of or sympathetic to Hamas (allegedly a terrorist group), or even terrorist groups in their own right, including six Palestinian civil society groups; UNRWA (the UN humanitarian arm for Palestinian refugees); various Israeli leaders have also accused Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch, the World Health Organization, the United Nations as a whole, Jewish Voice for Peace, and IfNotNow of backing or spreading propaganda from Hamas, as well as Ben & Jerry’s ice cream, college students and Jewish professors all over the world; similarly the entire countries of Spain, South Africa, as well as the US State Department, and all the children of Gaza over the age of four – all are alleged supporters of Hamas (and thereby “sympathetic toward a terrorist organization”). (Links to accusations that these and many other groups and individuals are Hamas supporters are here – with thanks to Mehdi Hasan.)

    NOTE: The use of the word “terrorist” for a group that resists occupation and oppression is a political, not fact-based choice. In reality, international law supports the efforts of resistance groups against an occupying power, the UN extending that right to the point of armed resistance. Hamas has clearly and openly stated that its enemy is not the Jewish people, but the supremacist ideology of Zionism – the ideology under which Israel dispossessed 750,000 Palestinian people and exiled them to Gaza and other locations.

In the West Bank, at least 7 people were killed in an Israeli military raid and air attacks. Palestinian Civil Defense seeks global help after receiving appeals about people trapped alive under rubble in Gaza The Palestinian Civil Defense reported on Tuesday, “We are receiving urgent pleas about the presence of survivors under the debris of some homes and residential buildings that were demolished by the Israeli occupation (forces) in the Beit Lahia project area in northern Gaza,” and called for “international human rights and humanitarian organizations to intervene urgently to allow access for rescue teams and work to save those trapped beneath the rubble.” The Civil Defense added, “Citizens in northern Gaza are facing death and Israeli extermination in silence, while the occupation has entirely disrupted our teams’ operations, confiscated their vehicles and equipment, displaced them, and arrested some,” and described Israel’s actions as a “flagrant violation of international humanitarian law.” The agency noted that for the 14th consecutive day, the Israeli army has prevented teams from conducting their operations in northern Gaza. After weeks of intense bombing by Israeli warplanes, northern Gaza has taken on an apocalyptic look.

(screengrab) Key Highlights from weekly Gaza report: UN office for humanitarian affairs For almost a month, all attempts by humanitarian organizations to deliver food to people in the besieged areas of North Gaza governorate have been blocked by the Israeli authorities. In central and southern Gaza, more than 100 kitchens producing 400,000 meals a day are at risk of shutting down due to supply shortages. Health-care conditions in North Gaza remain critical with the Kamal Adwan Hospital hit twice in the past week and the delivery of life-saving supplies to the Al Awda Hospital denied. Over 42 million tons of rubble and a large concentration of explosive hazards pose an imminent threat to civilians, while the entry of specialized personnel and equipment and the conduct of explosive ordnance disposal activities are restricted. Ten per cent of all journalists working in Gaza have been killed since October 2023, reports the Palestinian Journalists Syndicate, as the Israeli authorities still ban the entry of foreign journalists. Two elderly Palestinians in northern Gaza die waiting at Israeli checkpoint The two elderly individuals, both ill and in wheelchairs, passed away in the afternoon as they waited for several hours at the checkpoint, witnesses said. They had been trying to cross the Israeli checkpoint with their families and other displaced Palestinians from the town of Beit Lahia, they added. The two elders were held by Israeli forces at the checkpoint near the Civil Administration area east of the Jabalia refugee camp, enduring hours-long delays . Witnesses said that the displaced people, including the two elders, were forced to wait for long hours under the sun in harsh conditions at the Israeli checkpoint, as they sought passage following Israeli warnings for residents to evacuate the area. Early Tuesday, the Israeli army dropped leaflets over several neighborhoods in Beit Lahia, ordering residents and displaced people to evacuate the area and head south via Salah al-Din Road, east of the Jabalia refugee camp. The Israeli military destroyed the only firefighting vehicle in the northern Gaza Strip The Israeli military destroyed the only firefighting vehicle in the northern Gaza Strip (Palestinian Civil Defense in Gaza]) West Bank: Israeli operation that killed 8 Palestinians ‘involved lethal war-like tactics’ At least eight people were killed in an Israeli military raid and air attacks on the occupied West Bank. UN chief’s spokesperson Stephane Dujarric said that Tuesday’s operations in Jenin “involved lethal war-like tactics”. At least seven people have been killed after Israeli forces carried out a raid in the occupied West Bank. Dujarric added that the operation “seems to exceed law enforcement standards”. “This has included air strikes and shoulder-fired explosive projectiles, resulting in fatalities.” The dead included Hani Ali Bani Awda, 52, who was killed and dismembered when Israeli forces fired anti-tank grenades at his home in the town of Tamoun, south of Tubas, and Aref Mohammed Aref Bani Awda, 40. Mohammad Hassan Musa Asous, 44, and Shawqi Fayyad Hassan Asous, 40, were assassinated by Israeli forces in the village of Ash-Shuhada, southwest of Jenin. Also on Tuesday, Israeli forces killed four Palestinian men during a brutal attack on the town of Qabatiya, south of Jenin in the northern West Bank: Abdullah Khaled Abu Zaid, 22, Majdi Hamza Saba’neh and Omar Mustafa Saba’neh, and Nasr Kamil.

Netanyahu sacks defense minister Gallant; his replacement is anti-Palestinian to the core Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu fired Defense Minister Yoav Gallant on 5 November, citing a lack of mutual trust and disagreements on the “management” of the war in Gaza and Lebanon. In a one-sentence letter handed to Gallant personally, Netanyahu tells the outgoing war chief, “Your tenure will end 48 hours from the receipt of this letter.” “I would like to thank you for your service as defense minister,” the letter, released by the premier’s office, concludes. “Unfortunately, although in the first months of the war there was trust and there was very fruitful work, during the last months this trust cracked between me and the Defense Minister,” Netanyahu said in a video statement released Tuesday night. He also accused Gallant of indirectly aiding Israel’s enemies. “I made many attempts to bridge these gaps, but they kept getting wider,” he said. “They also came to the knowledge of the public in an unacceptable way, and worse than that, they came to the knowledge of the enemy — our enemies enjoyed it and derived a lot of benefit from it.” Foreign Minister Israel Katz will replace Gallant as head of the defense ministry. Gideon Saar, a minister without a portfolio who was recently rumored to be Gallant’s replacement, will be appointed as foreign minister. Three of Gallant’s most prominent remarks that have drawn international scrutiny and allegations of potential violations of international law: On Oct. 9, 2023, Gallant announced a “complete siege” on Gaza, saying: “There will be no electricity, no food, no water, no fuel. Everything is closed.” (A severe blockade has sparked international criticism, with concerns that it constitutes collective punishment, which is prohibited under international law.) In the same announcement, Gallant referred to Hamas militants as “human animals,” declaring: “We are fighting human animals, and we are acting accordingly.” (The language has been condemned for its dehumanizing tone, which could incite violence against civilians.) In August 2023, Gallant warned of potential action against Hezbollah, stating that Israel could “return Lebanon to the Stone Age” if attacked. (That remark was interpreted as a threat to use disproportionate force against civilian infrastructure.) Israel Katz, a member of Netanyahu’s Likud party, has already taken some memorable actions against Palestinians, including: Two days after October 7th, Katz issued an order to “immediately cut off the water supply from Israel to Gaza,” adding, “Electricity and fuel were cut off yesterday…All the civilian population in Gaza is ordered to leave immediately. We will win. They will not receive a drop of water or a single battery until they leave.” Katz also declared UN Secretary-General António Guterres “persona non grata in Israel” for criticizing the country’s war on Gaza. While serving as Israel’s foreign minister, he threatened “severe consequences” for nations that officially recognize Palestinian statehood. Nearly 150 of the 193 United Nations member states recognize Palestine. In 2022, as a member of the legislature he said, “Yesterday I warned the Arab students, who are flying Palestine flags at universities: Remember 48. Remember our independence war and your Nakba, don’t stretch the rope too much. […] If you don’t calm down, we’ll teach you a lesson that won’t be forgotten.” In one of his final acts as foreign minister, Katz on Monday initiated the process of annulling the 1967 agreement between Israel and the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA).

Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan called for the arms embargo on Israel while speaking at a news conference in Djibouti on 1 November. While attending the Turkiye–Africa collaboration meeting, Fidan announced that the group letter was sent to the UN and that it must be “repeated at every opportunity that selling arms to Israel means participating in its genocide.” Israeli settlers acquire hundreds of high-caliber rifles to ‘prepare for war’ in West Bank Israeli settler and leader of the Samaria Regional Council in the occupied Palestinian West Bank, Yossi Dagan, has purchased more than 500 rifles to arm emergency security teams, and is now working to further upgrade their equipment in preparation for a future war with Palestinians, Masar News reported on 5 November. Dagan purchased dozens of advanced sniper rifles after raising almost one million shekels ($270,000) from supporters of the Council around the world. Masar News notes that “These moves indicate a major shift in the settlers’ strategy” and show the settlers’ readiness for war in the West Bank. Early last month, National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir announced that over 120,000 firearms have been distributed among Jewish settlers in the West Bank since the outbreak of the Gaza war last year. “Over 120,000 weapons were distributed to eligible citizens, while tens of thousands more received conditional approvals,” he said on his X account. “We intend to continue arming Israel. That’s what we did, and that’s what we’ll continue to do!” NOTE: Israel has illegally built around 280 settlements on Palestinian land in the occupied West Bank and East Jerusalem, which are home to more than 700,000 illegal settlers. Israeli settlements and settlers on Palestinian land are a violation of international law, and considered by many Palestinians to be the main barrier to any lasting peace agreement. Some settler groups, moreover, have a history of violence against Palestinians, often with the assistance of Israeli military forces. In a landmark advisory opinion on July 19, 2024, the International Court of Justice declared Israel’s decades-long occupation of Palestinian land “illegal” and demanded the evacuation of all settlements in the West Bank and East Jerusalem.

Israel released footage on Monday showing the detonation of entire neighborhoods, and scores of houses in southern Lebanon’s Mays al-Jabal. Several videos of home demolitions carried out by Israeli forces have surfaced since Tel Aviv launched its failed ground operation in southern Lebanon, which began at the very start of October. Despite the destruction, Israeli forces have been unable to achieve the goal of pushing Hezbollah away from the border, establishing a buffer zone, and securing the return of tens of thousands of settlers who were evacuated from their northern settlements at the start of the war last year. Yedioth Ahronoth reported last week that despite deploying 50,000 soldiers to Lebanon, the army was unable to “capture even a single village.” It notes that five divisions were deployed, three times the force that was sent into south Lebanon and defeated in 2006. The Hebrew newspaper also reported on 4 November that Israel is facing a serious shortage of troops.

(Munira Khayyat, via X; Georges Haddad, via X) Israeli attacks have killed 151 emergency workers in Lebanon The World Health Organization (WHO) says emergency medical services in Lebanon have reported 201 attacks over the past year following the hostilities between Israel and Hezbollah. The attacks have resulted in 151 deaths and 212 injuries, it said. The violence “is hindering the rescue and relief efforts, and ultimately contributing to high death rates,” it added. Medics in Lebanon have accused Israel of directly targeting them in attacks that rights experts say amount to war crimes.

(Houssam Shbaro/Anadolu via Getty Images) New Israeli Law Empowers Education Ministry to Immediately Dismiss Arab Teachers Suspected of Sympathy With “Terrorist” Orgs (like UNRWA) Israeli lawmakers passed a law on Tuesday authorizing the education minister to withdraw funding from schools where “expressions of sympathy with terrorist acts are occurring or being permitted.” The law also allows the Education Ministry’s director general to summarily dismiss teachers without prior notice if they “demonstrate sympathy with a terrorist organization” or “issue statements praising, supporting or encouraging” terrorist acts. The legislation passed with 55 votes in favor and 45 against. Following the law’s passage, Amit Halevi, who introduced the law, declared, “Today, the Knesset is taking the most crucial step in the war against our enemies: striking at terrorism’s strongest foundation – education.” He added, “This law will ensure that Israeli students are educated in justice, science, and compassion, rather than terrorism, injustice and barbarism.” NOTE: The Israeli government has declared a number of groups to be part of or sympathetic to Hamas (allegedly a terrorist group), or even terrorist groups in their own right, including six Palestinian civil society groups; UNRWA (the UN humanitarian arm for Palestinian refugees); various Israeli leaders have also accused Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch, the World Health Organization, the United Nations as a whole, Jewish Voice for Peace, and IfNotNow of backing or spreading propaganda from Hamas, as well as Ben & Jerry’s ice cream, college students and Jewish professors all over the world; similarly the entire countries of Spain, South Africa, as well as the US State Department, and all the children of Gaza over the age of four – all are alleged supporters of Hamas (and thereby “sympathetic toward a terrorist organization”). (Links to accusations that these and many other groups and individuals are Hamas supporters are here – with thanks to Mehdi Hasan.) NOTE: The use of the word “terrorist” for a group that resists occupation and oppression is a political, not fact-based choice. In reality, international law supports the efforts of resistance groups against an occupying power, the UN extending that right to the point of armed resistance. Hamas has clearly and openly stated that its enemy is not the Jewish people, but the supremacist ideology of Zionism – the ideology under which Israel dispossessed 750,000 Palestinian people and exiled them to Gaza and other locations.

    Israel blocks World Health Org evacuation of sick children in northern Gaza: Health Ministry

    Anadolu Agency reports:

    The Israeli army blocked a World Health Organization (WHO) delegation from evacuating sick children from hospitals in northern Gaza amid the worsening situation due to ongoing military operations in the area, now in their sixth day, a senior Gaza health official said Friday.

    A health ministry spokesperson said, “The army turned back the WHO delegation tasked with evacuating intensive care patients and children from northern hospitals.”

    He added that Israeli attacks and blocking of fuel trucks are putting the hospitals at risk of halting operations.

    The Palestinian Red Crescent Society also revealed on Friday that all its ambulances in northern Gaza were forced to stop over the lack of fuel due to the Israeli army’s incursion and siege for the sixth consecutive day.

    World Food Program warns of famine threat in Gaza as winter approaches

    Anadolu Agency reports:

    The World Food Program (WFP) warned Thursday that the threat of famine persists in Gaza amid tragedy and suffering in the Palestinian enclave.

    There are around 100,000 tons of food waiting to enter Gaza – enough to feed over a million people for five months – but according to WFP, the closure of crossing points, security issues and route disruptions at crossings are limiting aid delivery.

    WFP warned that one million people risk losing vital support if the flow of assistance does not resume.

    “As another winter approaches, every day is a struggle for survival. Hunger remains rampant and the threat of famine persists,” the UN agency said on X.

    Four Days in Gaza: Five Journalists Killed or Wounded

    The Intercept reports:

    On Wednesday, a group of journalists were covering the siege in northern Gaza, when they were attacked. Witnesses said the journalists were targeted.

    Like other Palestinian journalists who have been killed and injured in Gaza, Fadi al-Hawidi, a cameraman for Al Jazeera Arabic, was wearing a flak jacket with the word “PRESS” clearly visible on it.

    In his last post on Instagram before he was shot, al-Hawidi filmed himself as he reported on civilians being shot at by Israeli forces while attempting to leave the area in compliance with the military’s orders. Unarmed people can be seen running as gunfire rings in the background.

    One of the other journalists described what happened: “Suddenly a quadcopter drone appeared above the broadcast vehicle and the place where we were, and it started firing directly at us.

    “The drone started chasing us and the entire crew, firing directly at us. A bullet hit my colleague Fadi’s neck and he immediately passed out and fell to the ground.”

    According to his colleagues, Fadi is now permanently paralyzed due to his injuries.

    A spokesman for the Israeli military told The Intercept, “The IDF is not aware of the incident referred to. The IDF has never, and will never, deliberately target journalists.”

    (Read the full story here.)

    Below is a short video of one of the first Israeli attacks on journalists in this war: Dylan Collins’ video testimony of the targeted IDF attack on October 13, 2023.



    WATCH: American Journalist Could Face Death Penalty for Reporting in Israel




    UPDATE: According to The Intercept, Jeremy Loffredo was released from prison Friday morning by Israeli authorities after four days in Israeli detention, but was ordered to remain in the country until October 20, allowing investigators more time to bring additional allegations or to further interrogate him.

    Israeli police had held Loffredo, an independent journalist from New York, on suspicion of assisting an enemy in war, a serious allegation that carries a maximum sentence of life imprisonment or death, his attorney said.

    In his reporting, he showed the locations of several Iranian missiles that had landed inside Israel earlier this month. As was the case with other media outlets, some of Loffredo’s footage was shot near sensitive Israeli sites.

    Israeli forces again attack UNIFIL in southern Lebanon, peacekeepers injured

    Anadolu Agency reports:

    Israeli forces on Friday launched another attack on the UN Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) headquarters in southern Lebanon, injuring several Sri Lankan peacekeepers stationed there.

    An Israeli Merkava tank reportedly targeted one of UNIFIL’s observation towers on a main road, in front of a Lebanese Army checkpoint, injuring the Sri Lankan contingent stationed there.

    Israeli artillery fired a shell that struck the main entrance of the UNIFIL command center, causing damage to the site. This was the second attack on the location in three days.

    According to legal experts, recent Israeli attacks on the UN Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) constitute a serious violation of international law.

    AL JAZEERA ADDS: The Israeli military says it is “conducting a thorough review” to determine details of attacks on UN peacekeepers in southern Lebanon: “The [Israeli military] expresses deep concern over incidents of this kind and is currently conducting a thorough review at the highest levels of command to determine the details,” the army said in a statement.

    NOTE: Israel’s self-investigations consistently whitewash its crimes and fail to appropriately punish the perpetrators. Israeli sources, including the government itself, have a long track record of lying (for example, this and this and this.)

    WATCH: 254 days after Hind Rajab’s murder, Biden admin says Israel can investigate itself

    From Middle East Monitor:

    Zeteo News’ Prem Thakker asked US Secretary of State spokesperson Matthew Miller how Washington can continue to arm Israel when its investigations into misconduct by its soldiers keep being closed without anyone being held to account.

    Miller said it’s not for the US ‘to adjudicate’ over what information Tel Aviv issues is accurate.



    US officials continue to see Israel’s operation across Lebanese border as ‘limited’: Pentagon

    Anadolu Agency reports:

    Israel is conducting a “limited” operation across the Lebanese border to remove the Hezbollah group’s infrastructure, the Pentagon said Thursday.

    “All indications that we have right now are that Israel continues to conduct limited ground operations across the border to remove Hezbollah attack infrastructure,” Press Secretary Maj. Gen. Pat Ryder told reporters.

    Israel has been mounting massive airstrikes across Lebanon against what it claims are Hezbollah targets since Sept. 23 that have killed more than 1,323 people and injured nearly 3,700.



    US expands sanctions against Iran following attack on Israel


    In the context of Israel’s siege on northern Gaza, shooting civilians and journalists, blocking healthcare for critically ill children, attacking peacekeeping forces, and other actions – the US has chosen to sanction Iran.

    Anadolu Agency reports:

    The US expanded sanctions on Iran’s petroleum and petrochemical sectors in response to Iran’s Oct. 1 attack on Israel, the Treasury Department said on Friday.

    “This action intensifies financial pressure on Iran, limiting the regime’s ability to earn critical energy revenues to undermine stability in the region and attack U.S. partners and allies,” the department said in a statement.

    “As long as Iran devotes its energy revenues to funding attacks on our allies, supporting terrorism around the world, and pursuing other destabilizing actions, we will continue to use all the tools at our disposal to hold it accountable.

    “These measures will be reinforced by ongoing close coordination with partners and allies to address and counter Iran’s actions,” Secretary of State Antony Blinken said in a statement.

    US military veteran arrested by Israeli forces in occupied West Bank

    Middle East Eye reports:

    United States citizen and military veteran, Michael Jacobsen, was arrested Thursday by Israeli forces while accompanying a Palestinian farmer in a village in the West Bank, according to the International Solidarity Movement (ISM).

    The ISM said the farmer was facing “daily harassment, attacks, and invasions of his private land by Israeli settlers and occupation forces”.

    Israeli police arrested Jacobsen and took him into custody at the interrogation center created by Israeli Minister Itamar Ben Gvir. ISM explained that Israel has a policy of silencing international activists, who often raise awareness of the plight of Palestinians.

    Police said Jacobsen was “endangering the public due to provocation of disturbances” and accused him of entering the country illegally because they suspected him of supporting the Palestinian-led Boycott, Sanctions, and Divestment (BDS) movement – which is forbidden in Israel.

    Jacobsen was threatened with “imprisonment and deportation if he did not leave the country immediately”, according to the ISM, and he chose to leave for Jordan.

    The US won’t run for another term on UN human rights council. Israel is likely why.

    Kenneth Roth writes for the Guardian:

    Something unusual happened this week at the UN: the US government decided not to run for a second term on the human rights council.

    Various rationales are circulating, but one, in my view, looms large: Israel. Or more to the point, Joe Biden’s refusal to suspend or condition the massive US arms sales and military aid to Israel as its military bombs and starves the Palestinian civilians of Gaza.

    The election for the 47-member human rights council in Geneva is conducted by the UN general assembly in New York.

    It is rare that the UN general assembly has the chance to vote on the US government’s conduct. Given widespread outrage at Israeli war crimes in Gaza – and at Biden’s refusal to use the enormous leverage of US arms sales and military aid to stop it – that vote could easily have resulted in an overwhelming repudiation of the Biden administration. Rather than face the possibility of a humiliating reprimand, the US government withdrew its candidacy.

    By virtue of its diplomatic and economic power, the US government can be an important force for human rights. Other than on Israel, its presence on the council has generally helped the defense of human rights.

    But US credibility, already compromised by Washington’s close alliances with the repressive likes of Egypt, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, has been profoundly undermined by Biden’s aiding and abetting of Israeli war crimes in Gaza. With Biden seemingly constitutionally unable to change, the defense of human rights is taking a hit.

    Germany to supply Israel with new arms shipments

    Middle East Monitor reports:

    German Chancellor Olaf Scholz has announced that Berlin will deliver new shipments of weapons to Israel.

    This is in contrast to French President Emmanuel Macron who has called for a halt to any arms supplies to the occupation state if they are to be used in Gaza.

    Speaking before the Bundestag during discussions marking the first anniversary of 7 October 2023, Scholz said: “We in the government have made decisions that will ensure the delivery of more weapons soon.”

    “We have not decided to cease arms deliveries,” Scholz added, addressing claims from the opposition that the government paused weapons shipments to Tel Aviv for months, causing a “breach in German solidarity” with Israel.

    The German chancellor further stated, “We have delivered weapons and will continue to deliver weapons,” without specifying their type, quantity, or intended purpose.

    Iraqi resistance warns of crippling oil shortages worldwide if Israel begins ‘energy war’

    The Cradle reports:

    A leader of a major faction in the Islamic Resistance in Iraq has warned that if Israel begins a war that involves the energy sector, the world will lose 12 million barrels per day, “and this is what we will make sure of.”

    Abu Ali al-Askari, the head of the Iraqi Hezbollah Brigades Security Bureau, stated: “This is what we will be taking care of, but only God knows what our brethren in Yemen will do in Bab al-Mandab and our brethren in Iran will do in the Strait of Hormuz,” referring to important shipping routes for oil tankers.

    Israeli leaders have threatened to launch a massive attack against Iran, including against nuclear power and oil infrastructure.

    Askari warned further that the resistance’s response “will not be limited to Israel, but will extend to Washington’s bases and interests in Iraq and the region.”

    Some analysts believe that oil prices, currently around $80 per barrel, could reach more than $300 per barrel in the case of a full blockade of the Gulf of Hormuz.

    STATISTICS OCTOBER 7, 2023 – OCTOBER 11, 2024:

    Palestinian death toll from October 7, 2023 – October 11, 2024: at least 42,926* ( 42,175 in Gaza* – 69% are women and children, according to Gaza’s Media Office). [The Ministry’s figures have been contested by the Israeli authorities, although they have been accepted as accurate by Israeli intelligence services, the UN, and WHO. These data are supported by independent analyses, comparing changes in the number of deaths of UN Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) staff with those reported by the Ministry, which found claims of data fabrication implausible.]

    This is expected to be a significant undercount since thousands of those killed have yet to be identified – and at least 751 in the West Bank (~164 children). This does not include an estimated 10,000 more in Gaza still buried under rubble (4,900 women and children). Euro-Med Monitor reports 49,032 Palestinian deaths.

    Lancet: “Applying a conservative estimate of four indirect deaths per one direct death9 to the 37,396 deaths reported, it is not implausible to estimate that up to 186,000 or even more deaths could be attributable to the current conflict in Gaza.

    Ralph Nader earlier estimated 300,000 Palestinians may have been killed in Gaza.

    At least 45 Palestinians have died in Israeli prisons (27 from Gaza, 25 from West Bank).
    At least 41 Palestinians have died due to malnutrition (at least 37 of them children)**.
    About 1.9 million of Gaza’s 2.3 million population are currently displaced.
    Almost 500,000 Gazans are currently experiencing catastrophic levels of food insecurity.
    Palestinian injuries from October 7 – October 11, 2024: at least 104,536 (including at least 98,336 in Gaza and 6,200 in the West Bank, including 830 children). [It remains unknown how many Americans are among the casualties in Gaza.]

    Reported Israeli death toll from October 7, 2023 – October 11, 2024: ~1,457 (~1,139 on October 7, 2023, of which ~32 were Americans, and ~36 were children); 293*** military forces since the ground invasion began in Gaza; 25 military and civilians in the West Bank, East Jerusalem, and Israel) and~10,000 injured.

    The death toll in Lebanon since October 8, 2023 is at least 2,169 and 10,212 injuries. An estimated 1.2 million have been displaced.

    NOTE: It is unknown at this time how many of the deaths and injuries of Israelis on October 7 were caused by Israeli soldiers.

    *Previously, IAK did not include 471 Gazans killed in the Al Ahli hospital blast since the source of the projectile was being disputed.

Israel has been mounting massive airstrikes across Lebanon against what it claims are Hezbollah targets since Sept. 23 that have killed more than 1,323 people and injured nearly 3,700. US expands sanctions against Iran following attack on Israel In the context of Israel’s siege on northern Gaza, shooting civilians and journalists, blocking healthcare for critically ill children, attacking peacekeeping forces, and other actions – the US has chosen to sanction Iran. Anadolu Agency reports: The US expanded sanctions on Iran’s petroleum and petrochemical sectors in response to Iran’s Oct. 1 attack on Israel, the Treasury Department said on Friday. “This action intensifies financial pressure on Iran, limiting the regime’s ability to earn critical energy revenues to undermine stability in the region and attack U.S. partners and allies,” the department said in a statement. “As long as Iran devotes its energy revenues to funding attacks on our allies, supporting terrorism around the world, and pursuing other destabilizing actions, we will continue to use all the tools at our disposal to hold it accountable. “These measures will be reinforced by ongoing close coordination with partners and allies to address and counter Iran’s actions,” Secretary of State Antony Blinken said in a statement. US military veteran arrested by Israeli forces in occupied West Bank Middle East Eye reports: United States citizen and military veteran, Michael Jacobsen, was arrested Thursday by Israeli forces while accompanying a Palestinian farmer in a village in the West Bank, according to the International Solidarity Movement (ISM). The ISM said the farmer was facing “daily harassment, attacks, and invasions of his private land by Israeli settlers and occupation forces”. Israeli police arrested Jacobsen and took him into custody at the interrogation center created by Israeli Minister Itamar Ben Gvir. ISM explained that Israel has a policy of silencing international activists, who often raise awareness of the plight of Palestinians. Police said Jacobsen was “endangering the public due to provocation of disturbances” and accused him of entering the country illegally because they suspected him of supporting the Palestinian-led Boycott, Sanctions, and Divestment (BDS) movement – which is forbidden in Israel. Jacobsen was threatened with “imprisonment and deportation if he did not leave the country immediately”, according to the ISM, and he chose to leave for Jordan. The moments before Israeli police arrest Michael Jacobsen in Masafer Yatta in occupied West Bank, on 10 October 2024 The moments before Israeli police arrest Michael Jacobsen in Masafer Yatta in occupied West Bank, on 10 October 2024 (International Solidarity Movement) The US won’t run for another term on UN human rights council. Israel is likely why. Kenneth Roth writes for the Guardian: Something unusual happened this week at the UN: the US government decided not to run for a second term on the human rights council. Various rationales are circulating, but one, in my view, looms large: Israel. Or more to the point, Joe Biden’s refusal to suspend or condition the massive US arms sales and military aid to Israel as its military bombs and starves the Palestinian civilians of Gaza. The election for the 47-member human rights council in Geneva is conducted by the UN general assembly in New York. It is rare that the UN general assembly has the chance to vote on the US government’s conduct. Given widespread outrage at Israeli war crimes in Gaza – and at Biden’s refusal to use the enormous leverage of US arms sales and military aid to stop it – that vote could easily have resulted in an overwhelming repudiation of the Biden administration. Rather than face the possibility of a humiliating reprimand, the US government withdrew its candidacy. By virtue of its diplomatic and economic power, the US government can be an important force for human rights. Other than on Israel, its presence on the council has generally helped the defense of human rights. But US credibility, already compromised by Washington’s close alliances with the repressive likes of Egypt, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, has been profoundly undermined by Biden’s aiding and abetting of Israeli war crimes in Gaza. With Biden seemingly constitutionally unable to change, the defense of human rights is taking a hit. Germany to supply Israel with new arms shipments Middle East Monitor reports: German Chancellor Olaf Scholz has announced that Berlin will deliver new shipments of weapons to Israel. This is in contrast to French President Emmanuel Macron who has called for a halt to any arms supplies to the occupation state if they are to be used in Gaza. Speaking before the Bundestag during discussions marking the first anniversary of 7 October 2023, Scholz said: “We in the government have made decisions that will ensure the delivery of more weapons soon.” “We have not decided to cease arms deliveries,” Scholz added, addressing claims from the opposition that the government paused weapons shipments to Tel Aviv for months, causing a “breach in German solidarity” with Israel. The German chancellor further stated, “We have delivered weapons and will continue to deliver weapons,” without specifying their type, quantity, or intended purpose. Iraqi resistance warns of crippling oil shortages worldwide if Israel begins ‘energy war’ The Cradle reports: A leader of a major faction in the Islamic Resistance in Iraq has warned that if Israel begins a war that involves the energy sector, the world will lose 12 million barrels per day, “and this is what we will make sure of.” Abu Ali al-Askari, the head of the Iraqi Hezbollah Brigades Security Bureau, stated: “This is what we will be taking care of, but only God knows what our brethren in Yemen will do in Bab al-Mandab and our brethren in Iran will do in the Strait of Hormuz,” referring to important shipping routes for oil tankers. Israeli leaders have threatened to launch a massive attack against Iran, including against nuclear power and oil infrastructure. Askari warned further that the resistance’s response “will not be limited to Israel, but will extend to Washington’s bases and interests in Iraq and the region.” Some analysts believe that oil prices, currently around $80 per barrel, could reach more than $300 per barrel in the case of a full blockade of the Gulf of Hormuz.

[The Ministry’s figures have been contested by the Israeli authorities, although they have been accepted as accurate by Israeli intelligence services, the UN, and WHO. These data are supported by independent analyses, comparing changes in the number of deaths of UN Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) staff with those reported by the Ministry, which found claims of data fabrication implausible.] This is expected to be a significant undercount since thousands of those killed have yet to be identified – and at least 751 in the West Bank (~164 children). This does not include an estimated 10,000 more in Gaza still buried under rubble (4,900 women and children). Euro-Med Monitor reports 49,032 Palestinian deaths. Lancet: “Applying a conservative estimate of four indirect deaths per one direct death9 to the 37,396 deaths reported, it is not implausible to estimate that up to 186,000 or even more deaths could be attributable to the current conflict in Gaza. Ralph Nader earlier estimated 300,000 Palestinians may have been killed in Gaza. At least 45 Palestinians have died in Israeli prisons (27 from Gaza, 25 from West Bank). At least 41 Palestinians have died due to malnutrition (at least 37 of them children)**. About 1.9 million of Gaza’s 2.3 million population are currently displaced. Almost 500,000 Gazans are currently experiencing catastrophic levels of food insecurity.

The death toll in Lebanon since October 8, 2023 is at least 2,169 and 10,212 injuries. An estimated 1.2 million have been displaced. NOTE: It is unknown at this time how many of the deaths and injuries of Israelis on October 7 were caused by Israeli soldiers. *Previously, IAK did not include 471 Gazans killed in the Al Ahli hospital blast since the source of the projectile was being disputed. However, given that much evidence points to Israel as the culprit, Israel had previously bombed the hospital and has attacked many others, Israel is prohibiting outside experts from investigating the scene, and since the UN and other agencies are including the deaths from the attack in their cumulative totals, if Americans knew is now also doing so. **Euro-Med Monitor reports that Gaza’s elderly are dying at an alarmingly high rate. The majority die at home and are buried either close to their residences or in makeshift graves dispersed across the Strip. There are currently more than 140 such cemeteries. Additionally, according to Euromed, thousands have died from starvation, malnourishment, and inadequate medical care; these are considered indirect victims as they were not registered in hospitals. ***The figure does not include the reportedly 56 Israeli soldiers – nearly 16% of the total Israeli military deaths – killed due to friendly fire in Gaza and other military-related accidents. † For most of the conflict, women and children accounted for about 70% of deaths in Gaza, with children making up a little over 40% of those killed, according to official statistics.

    CONTRASTING WORLDLY DESIRES WITH GODLY CONTENTMENT (PART 2)

    We were trying to separate NEEDS FROM WANTS...the very weapon the devil has placed in the hands of those working for him.
    IN THE OLD TESTAMENT, ALL NEEDS WERE MET,BUT THEY WANTED MORE. NO ONE CAN DENY THE ATROCITIES THE*WANTS* CAUSED. AND UPON CHRIST JESUS COMING TO SET THE RECORD STRAIGHT, MANY OF US ARE YET CHAINED TO SATAN... REMEMBER EVE;
    And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes (Gen.3.6a).

    The tree has been there,it wasn't pleasant,but that day,she realized it was pleasant. THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT IS HAPPENING TO PASTORS (ANCIENT AND MODERN) that has kept them in the devil's cage, THAT HAS MADE TITHING TO BECOME AN ISSUE IT WASN'T SUPPOSED TO BE. Some have accepted their fate, others are struggling.

    I can tell you preachers now attach prosperity to God's approval while they teach that the poor are sinners;
    5. Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself.
    6. But godliness with contentment is great gain.
    7. For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out. (1Ti 6: 5-7)
    I SOMETIMES WONDER IF WE READ THE SAME BIBLE...OR THEY HAVE THEIR OWN;
    Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation. (2Pe 1: 20)

    The Bible has no private interpretation. Since God said*NO* to this world,He decided to use it as a training ground, with the furious devil as His Tool to see who will decide for Him or the devil. It's the reason we're called Pilgrims on earth.
    Thus,as Pilgrims, GOD MADE SURE OF THREE PROVISIONS IF WE WILL BE SATISFIED WITH THEM TO FOLLOW HIS WORD THAT HE IS LEADING US TO A BETTER PLACE. THE PROVISIONS ARE , FOOD, CLOTHING AND SHELTER.

    You must have food to eat in the journey through the world.
    You must have clothing.
    You must have shelter (your own house)

Your family becomes larger and needs another car where your wife needs to help drop and pick kids from school,it is a WANT,not a NEED, but He sees through you,it will help to serve Him better,He will give to you...Matt.6:25-33)...in the 32, Christ Jesus Himself said;
    For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. (Mat 6: 32)

    7. But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.
    8. But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. (2Pe 3: 7-8)

    10. But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up

    Compilation of news reports – IAK staff

    At least 45 Palestinians were killed and 130 were injured in three massacres of families in the last 24 hours, the Health Ministry in Gaza said on Wednesday.

    On Wednesday, at least 10 Palestinians were killed when Israeli forces bombed the tents of displaced people in Jabaliya.

    The reality in northern Gaza: witnesses report a bloodbath

    From Mondoweiss:

    The following are some eyewitness reports from residents of Jabaliya, where the Israeli army surrounded the area and launched a surprise invasion on Sunday morning, coinciding with the first anniversary of October 7. Roughly 200,000 Palestinians are under siege; the hospitals in the vicinity are under evacuation orders.

    Most residents could not [or would not] evacuate and were locked in their homes with very little available for them to survive.

    One family that evacuated carrying a white flag found themselves under fire from quadcopter attack drones. The father and one son were killed; the rest of the family took shelter. What they saw was “like a horror movie.”

    The road was filled with dead bodies, and “dismembered bodies strewn across the streets.”

    “My cousin came the second night and joined us in the shelter,” Raneem explains. “They said that people lay dead at their homes’ front doors and in the street,” killed as they tried to follow evacuation orders.

    The Civil Defense in Gaza has reported several massacres perpetrated by the Israeli army during the ongoing invasion of Jabalia, although rescue workers have been unable to tally an exact number of casualties due to difficulties accessing the area.

    (Read the full report here.)

    Local journalist Hossam Shabat, living and working in northern Gaza, confirmed the above descriptions:

    Israeli occupation forces have asked all residents of northern Gaza (300k+) to evacuate as a means of ethnically cleansing North Gaza .

    However, they then besieged Jabalia refugee camp, and when people tried to leave, they were shot at by snipers.

    Many residents are on the streets, bleeding, as Israeli forces have destroyed ambulances and are targeting anyone who tries to help.

    The situation in the north is horrific and very dangerous; there are currently hundreds of thousands trapped, and the shelling is nonstop.

    US: former White House advisor urges Israel to ‘carpet bomb’ Irish peacekeepers in Lebanon

    Middle East Monitor reports:

    Former White House advisor Matthew Brodsky has urged Israel to drop napalm on Irish peacekeepers in South Lebanon, sparking outrage and concern over the ideological stance of individuals advising the US administration on Israel and Palestine.

    UNIFIL (United Nations Interim Force In Lebanon) has some 10,000 peacekeepers in south Lebanon, including members of the Irish Defense Forces. All UNIFIL personnel are distinguishable by their blue helmets and white vehicles.

    Brodsky, a Senior Fellow at the Gold Institute for International Strategy and former Director of Policy at the Jewish Policy Centre, posted a shocking tweet on X stating: “Israel should carpet bomb the Irish area and then drop napalm over it.”

    The tweet, which has since been deleted, included a map showing the deployment of Ireland’s peacekeeping force in Southern Lebanon.

    The comment has been condemned widely, with many questioning the appropriateness of having individuals with such extreme views in advisory roles within the US government.

    Brodsky’s comments come at a time of heightened tensions in the region and have raised concerns about the influence of hard-line Zionist ideologues on US foreign policy.

    Critics have accused Brodsky, who has lived and studied in Israel, of promoting Jewish supremacism. This incident has reignited debates about the prevalence of extremist ideologies within US political circles and their potential impact on diplomatic efforts in the Middle East.

    NOTE: According to his website, Matthew Brodsky has worked for over two decades in U.S. foreign policy and national security. He has briefed members of Congress, Department of State, Department of Defense, and the National Security Council on Iran, Syria, and Palestinian-Israeli issues.

    New York Times: American doctors who volunteered in Gaza report massive number of children shot in the head

    Some eyewitness accounts from the New York Times:

    At least 44 doctors, nurses and paramedics saw multiple cases of preteen children who had been shot in the head or chest in Gaza.

    Dr. Mohamad Rassoul Abu-Nuwar, General, bariatric and foregut surgeon, 36 years old, Pittsburgh, Pa.

    “One night in the emergency department, over the course of four hours, I saw six children between the ages of 5 and 12, all with single gunshot wounds to the skull.”

    Rania Afaneh, Paramedic, 23 years old, Savannah, Ga.

    “I saw a child who had been shot in the jaw. No other part of his body was affected. He was fully awake and aware of what was going on. He stared at me while he choked on his own blood as I tried to suction the blood out with a broken suction unit.”

    Dr. Khawaja Ikram, Orthopedic surgeon, 53 years old, Dallas, Texas

    “One day, while in the E.R., I saw a 3-year-old and 5-year-old, each with a single bullet hole to their head. When asked what happened, their father and brother said they had been told that Israel was backing out of Khan Younis. So they returned to see if anything was left of their house. There was, they said, a sniper waiting who shot both children.”

    Dr. Ahlia Kattan, Anesthesiologist and critical care doctor, 37 years old, Costa Mesa, Calif.

    “I saw an 18-month-old little girl with a gunshot wound to the head.”

    Dr. Nidal Farah, Anesthesiologist, 42 years old, Toledo, Ohio

    “I saw many children. In my experience the gunshot wound was often to the head. Many had non-curable, permanent brain damage. It was almost a daily occurrence to have children arrive at the hospital with gunshot wounds to the head.”

    Times Opinion sent questions about the experiences of these American health care workers to the Israel Defense Forces. A spokesperson for the I.D.F. responded with a statement that did not directly answer whether or not the military had investigated reports of shootings of preteen children, or if any disciplinary action had been taken against soldiers for firing at children.

    The statement began, “The I.D.F. is committed to mitigating civilian harm during operational activity. In that spirit, the I.D.F. makes great efforts to estimate and consider potential civilian collateral damage in its strikes. The I.D.F. is fully committed to respecting all applicable international legal obligations, including the Law of Armed Conflict.”

    NOTE: Israeli sources, including the government itself, have a long track record of lying (for example, this and this and this.)

    Israel’s self-investigations consistently whitewash its crimes and fail to appropriately punish the perpetrators.

    These photographs of X-rays were provided by Dr. Mimi Syed, who worked in Khan Younis from Aug. 8 to Sept. 5. She said: “I had multiple pediatric patients, mostly under the age of 12, who were shot in the head or the left side of the chest. Usually, these were single shots. The patients came in either dead or critical, and died shortly after arriving.”

    Israel detains US journalist reporting on damage to its military bases

    Middle East Monitor reports:

    Israel has detained American Grayzone journalist Jeremy Loffredo while he was on assignment in Israel.

    According to social media posts, Loffredo was detained on Tuesday along with four other journalists who were “beaten, blindfolded, and taken to an Israeli military base.” They also had their phones confiscated.

    Loffredo remains in custody, while the others, including Andrey X, were released 11 hours later.

    Loffredo’s last video posted on X reported the damage caused by the Iranian missile strikes on Israel’s military sites on 1 October.

    Social media users believe this is the reason for his detention as no local news organisations have covered the damage from the attack.

    Once again, Israel is setting the stage for massive civilian casualties – this time in Lebanon – and placing the blame for it squarely on the civilians’ shoulders. Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu released a video statement Tuesday, calling on the people of Lebanon to “free [their] country from Hezbollah,” threatening them with “destruction and suffering” if they refused to do so.

    “You have an opportunity to save Lebanon before it falls into the abyss of a long war that will lead to destruction and suffering like we see in Gaza. It doesn’t have to be that way,” Netanyahu said, as his country’s air force continued to launch non-stop raids across Lebanon.

    Israeli officials have been saying they’re going to destroy Lebanon like they destroyed Gaza for months.

    Back in December Israel’s defense minister Yoav Gallant said, “Every person in Lebanon can take the map, the aerial photograph of Gaza, place it on an aerial photograph of Beirut, and ask themselves if this is what they want to happen there.”

    Now Netanyahu himself is saying this.

    Notably, Netanyahu’s statement was delivered in English, with English subtitles. This wasn’t actually a plea made to the people of Lebanon, it was propaganda made for western consumption.

    Netanyahu does not actually believe the Lebanese people are going to take up arms against Hezbollah to stop their country from being destroyed, he’s just creating a narrative to justify what he already plans on doing to Lebanon.

    And the US is encouraging Israel to move forward. On Tuesday State Department Spokesman Matthew Miller told the press that the Biden administration no longer supports a ceasefire with Hezbollah, saying “We support Israel’s efforts to degrade Hezbollah’s capability” instead.

    Following Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s threats toward Lebanon, the US on Wednesday warned that the situation there must not turn into something resembling the situation the Gaza Strip, where more than 42,000 people have been killed in the last year.

    “We cannot and must not see the situation in Lebanon turn into anything like the situation in Gaza. That would, of course, not be acceptable,” State Department spokesman Matthew Miller told reporters.


    Ben Gvir oversees violent raid against Palestinians inside Ofer Prison

    Palestine Chronicle reports:

    A pre-dawn raid on Ofer prison on Monday saw police officers using stun grenades and dogs. In the footage shared by Ben-Gvir on X, detainees are seen handcuffed, and being violently moved around inside the prison, and several are seen laying face down on the ground with their hands tied behind their backs.

    “With zero tolerance and a heavy hand – this is how the prison fighters work with the animals of prey from the Nohba terrorists. I back them up!” Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir said alongside the footage.

    He claimed detainees whom he called “human scum” were “planning to riot inside the prison to mark the anniversary” of the October 7 resistance operation.


    Historic Int’l Criminal Court War Crimes Complaint Names 1,000 Israeli Soldiers

    Common Dreams reports:

    A Belgium-based advocacy group on Tuesday announced it “filed an unprecedented and historic complaint with the International Criminal Court against 1,000 Israeli occupation forces soldiers for war crimes, crimes against humanity, and genocide in Gaza,” where more than 150,000 Palestinians have been killed or wounded and millions more displaced, starved, and sickened by Israel’s yearlong onslaught.

    The Hind Rajab Foundation—named after the 6-year-old Palestinian girl who was killed in January along with half a dozen relatives and rescue workers by Israeli troops invading Gaza in retaliation for the October 2023 Hamas-led attack—said that the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) personnel identified by name in the International Criminal Court (ICC) complaint “are accused of participating in systematic attacks against civilians during the ongoing genocide in Gaza.”

    “This complaint, supported by over 8,000 pieces of verifiable evidence—including videos, audio recordings, forensic reports, and social media documentation—demonstrates the soldiers’ direct involvement in these atrocities,” the group explained.

    “All of the named soldiers were located in Gaza during the genocidal assault, and the evidence reveals their participation in violations of international law.”

    “This complaint is not only the largest ever submitted to the ICC, but it is also a milestone in documenting Israeli war crimes for future generations,” the Hind Rajab Foundation said.

    “By meticulously identifying the perpetrators and detailing their crimes, we are establishing a historical record that will ensure the individuals responsible are remembered and held accountable.”

    West Bank: Israeli Soldiers Kill Five Palestinians

    IMEMC reports:

    On Wednesday, Israeli special forces assassinated four Palestinian young men, and injured one, after targeting their vehicle in the northern West Bank city of Nablus.

    The Palestinian Health Ministry identified the slain men as Issam Mohammad Suleiman Salaj, 30, Abdul Halim Mohammad Nasser, 43, Salim Izz al-Din Mahmoud Abu Saada, 40, and Naim Mohammad Raji Abdul Hadi, 32.

    The Palestinian Red Crescent Society (PRCS) said their ambulance crews transported the bodies of the slain men to the Rafidia Governmental Hospital in Nablus, in addition to a young man who sustained injuries to the head and chest as a result of shrapnel from live rounds.

    Media sources said that an undercover Israeli unit (Musta’ribeen) infiltrated the eastern area of Nablus city, on Wednesday afternoon, and fired many live rounds at a vehicle, executing all four men inside.

    On Tuesday night, Israeli soldiers killed a Palestinian man, after surrounding his home, in Aqaba town, north of Tubas in the northeastern part of the occupied West Bank, and took his corpse before withdrawing.

    Media sources said Israeli undercover forces infiltrated the town and surrounded a house, before additional military vehicles invaded it.

    Media sources in the town, said the soldiers fired an Energa shells at the home, killing the Palestinian.

    Sources from the Palestinian Red Crescent Society (PRCS) said their crews received a report of an injury inside the besieged house, but Israeli forces detained the injured young man, abducted him, and withdrew.

    The army later confirmed the death of the slain Palestinian, identified Abdul-Rauf Rajeh Hamed Al-Masri, 37, but refused to allow the release of his corpse.

    In West Bank, Palestinian olive harvest terrorized by Israeli settlers, blocked by Israeli restrictions

    Anadolu Agency reports:

    Palestinians are unable to harvest olives in their orchards due to restrictions imposed by the Israeli army since Oct. 7, 2023, and attacks by Israeli settlers.

    Palestinian Minister of Agriculture Rezq Basheer-Selimia told the press that the ongoing restrictions imposed by the Israeli army and attacks by the Israelis are affecting Palestinian farmers, noting that at least 100,000 acres (approximately 404.69 sq km) of olive groves in the West Bank are not available for harvesting.

    For example, Palestinians in Madma, a town of 2,500 inhabitants in the northern part of the occupied West Bank city of Nablus, are unable to harvest their 5,000 acres (around 20.23 sq km) of olive groves.

    Israeli settlers attacked the town of Madma, beat and threatened the Palestinian residents, damaged their homes, and stole agricultural tools.

    A town spokesman said, “A group of Israeli settlers attacked residents of the town who were harvesting olives the other day. The settlers opened fire at the farmers and drove them away from the olive groves.”

    The Israeli army responds by protecting the attackers and imposing restrictions on Palestinians.

    NOTE: According to Bethlehem Bible College, the olive tree in Palestine has essential economic, cultural, social, and national significance, and symbolizes the Palestinian attachment to their land – olive trees resist the tough conditions of drought and poor soil conditions and remain attached to their place.

    Many Palestinian families inherited olive trees over many generations. Families gather every year in October to harvest the olive trees. They feel proud, bearing in mind their ancestors who were taking care of these trees before.

    Olive fruit compromises the income of 80,000 Palestinian families. Almost half of the West Bank and Gaza Strip (48%) is planted with olive trees. 70% of food production in Palestine is accounted for by olive trees, and economically olive trees contribute to 14% of the Palestinian economy. Most olive harvesting (90%) is used for oil production, while the rest (10%) is used for olive soap and pickling.

    Al Jazeera: Is Israel deliberately targeting Lebanon’s first responders?



    STATISTICS OCTOBER 7, 2023 – OCTOBER 9, 2024:

    Palestinian death toll from October 7, 2023 – October 9, 2024: at least 42,814* ( 42,065 in Gaza* – 69% are women and children, according to Gaza’s Media Office). [The Ministry’s figures have been contested by the Israeli authorities, although they have been accepted as accurate by Israeli intelligence services, the UN, and WHO. These data are supported by independent analyses, comparing changes in the number of deaths of UN Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) staff with those reported by the Ministry, which found claims of data fabrication implausible.]

    This is expected to be a significant undercount since thousands of those killed have yet to be identified – and at least 749 in the West Bank (~164 children). This does not include an estimated 10,000 more in Gaza still buried under rubble (4,900 women and children). Euro-Med Monitor reports 49,032 Palestinian deaths.

    Lancet: “Applying a conservative estimate of four indirect deaths per one direct death9 to the 37,396 deaths reported, it is not implausible to estimate that up to 186 000 or even more deaths could be attributable to the current conflict in Gaza.

    Ralph Nader earlier estimated 300,000 Palestinians may have been killed in Gaza.

    At least 45 Palestinians have died in Israeli prisons (27 from Gaza, 25 from West Bank).
    At least 41 Palestinians have died due to malnutrition (at least 37 of them children)**.
    About 1.9 million of Gaza’s 2.3 million population are currently displaced.
    Almost 500,000 Gazans are currently experiencing catastrophic levels of food insecurity.
    Palestinian injuries from October 7 – October 9, 2024: at least 104,086 (including at least 97,886 in Gaza and 6,200 in the West Bank, including 830 children). [It remains unknown how many Americans are among the casualties in Gaza.]

    Reported Israeli death toll from October 7, 2023 – October 9, 2024: ~1,457 (~1,139 on October 7, 2023, of which ~32 were Americans, and ~36 were children); 293*** military forces since the ground invasion began in Gaza; 25 military and civilians in the West Bank, East Jerusalem, and Israel) and~10,000 injured.

    The death toll in Lebanon since October 8, 2023 is at least 2,141 and 10,099 injuries. An estimated 1.2 million have been displaced.

    NOTE: It is unknown at this time how many of the deaths and injuries of Israelis on October 7 were caused by Israeli soldiers.

    *Previously, IAK did not include 471 Gazans killed in the Al Ahli hospital blast since the source of the projectile was being disputed. However, given that much evidence points to Israel as the culprit, Israel had previously bombed the hospital and has attacked many others, Israel is prohibiting outside experts from investigating the scene, and since the UN and other agencies are including the deaths from the attack in their cumulative totals, if Americans knew is now also doing so.

    **Euro-Med Monitor reports that Gaza’s elderly are dying at an alarmingly high rate. The majority die at home and are buried either close to their residences or in makeshift graves dispersed across the Strip. There are currently more than 140 such cemeteries. Additionally, according to Euromed, thousands have died from starvation, malnourishment, and inadequate medical care; these are considered indirect victims as they were not registered in hospitals.

    ***The figure does not include the reportedly 56 Israeli soldiers – nearly 16% of the total Israeli military deaths – killed due to friendly fire in Gaza and other military-related accidents.

    † For most of the conflict, women and children accounted for about 70% of deaths in Gaza, with children making up a little over 40% of those killed, according to official statistics.

(Hossam Shabat) Compilation of news reports – IAK staff At least 45 Palestinians were killed and 130 were injured in three massacres of families in the last 24 hours, the Health Ministry in Gaza said on Wednesday. On Wednesday, at least 10 Palestinians were killed when Israeli forces bombed the tents of displaced people in Jabaliya. Gaza has become a sea of rubble and a graveyard for tens of thousands of people Gaza has become a sea of rubble and a graveyard for tens of thousands of people (Image: Getty) The reality in northern Gaza: witnesses report a bloodbath From Mondoweiss: The following are some eyewitness reports from residents of Jabaliya, where the Israeli army surrounded the area and launched a surprise invasion on Sunday morning, coinciding with the first anniversary of October 7. Roughly 200,000 Palestinians are under siege; the hospitals in the vicinity are under evacuation orders. Most residents could not [or would not] evacuate and were locked in their homes with very little available for them to survive. One family that evacuated carrying a white flag found themselves under fire from quadcopter attack drones. The father and one son were killed; the rest of the family took shelter. What they saw was “like a horror movie.” The road was filled with dead bodies, and “dismembered bodies strewn across the streets.” “My cousin came the second night and joined us in the shelter,” Raneem explains. “They said that people lay dead at their homes’ front doors and in the street,” killed as they tried to follow evacuation orders. The Civil Defense in Gaza has reported several massacres perpetrated by the Israeli army during the ongoing invasion of Jabalia, although rescue workers have been unable to tally an exact number of casualties due to difficulties accessing the area. (Read the full report here.) Local journalist Hossam Shabat, living and working in northern Gaza, confirmed the above descriptions: Israeli occupation forces have asked all residents of northern Gaza (300k+) to evacuate as a means of ethnically cleansing North Gaza . However, they then besieged Jabalia refugee camp, and when people tried to leave, they were shot at by snipers. Many residents are on the streets, bleeding, as Israeli forces have destroyed ambulances and are targeting anyone who tries to help. The situation in the north is horrific and very dangerous; there are currently hundreds of thousands trapped, and the shelling is nonstop. RECOMMENDED READING: Ex-US diplomat calls ‘red lines’ meaningless as Israel orders 400,000 to leave Gaza’s north US: former White House advisor urges Israel to ‘carpet bomb’ Irish peacekeepers in Lebanon Middle East Monitor reports: Former White House advisor Matthew Brodsky has urged Israel to drop napalm on Irish peacekeepers in South Lebanon, sparking outrage and concern over the ideological stance of individuals advising the US administration on Israel and Palestine. UNIFIL (United Nations Interim Force In Lebanon) has some 10,000 peacekeepers in south Lebanon, including members of the Irish Defense Forces. All UNIFIL personnel are distinguishable by their blue helmets and white vehicles. Brodsky, a Senior Fellow at the Gold Institute for International Strategy and former Director of Policy at the Jewish Policy Centre, posted a shocking tweet on X stating: “Israel should carpet bomb the Irish area and then drop napalm over it.” The tweet, which has since been deleted, included a map showing the deployment of Ireland’s peacekeeping force in Southern Lebanon. The comment has been condemned widely, with many questioning the appropriateness of having individuals with such extreme views in advisory roles within the US government. Brodsky’s comments come at a time of heightened tensions in the region and have raised concerns about the influence of hard-line Zionist ideologues on US foreign policy. Critics have accused Brodsky, who has lived and studied in Israel, of promoting Jewish supremacism. This incident has reignited debates about the prevalence of extremist ideologies within US political circles and their potential impact on diplomatic efforts in the Middle East. (Read more here.)

He has briefed members of Congress, Department of State, Department of Defense, and the National Security Council on Iran, Syria, and Palestinian-Israeli issues. New York Times: American doctors who volunteered in Gaza report massive number of children shot in the head Some eyewitness accounts from the New York Times: At least 44 doctors, nurses and paramedics saw multiple cases of preteen children who had been shot in the head or chest in Gaza. Dr. Mohamad Rassoul Abu-Nuwar, General, bariatric and foregut surgeon, 36 years old, Pittsburgh, Pa. “One night in the emergency department, over the course of four hours, I saw six children between the ages of 5 and 12, all with single gunshot wounds to the skull.” Rania Afaneh, Paramedic, 23 years old, Savannah, Ga. “I saw a child who had been shot in the jaw. No other part of his body was affected. He was fully awake and aware of what was going on. He stared at me while he choked on his own blood as I tried to suction the blood out with a broken suction unit.” Dr. Khawaja Ikram, Orthopedic surgeon, 53 years old, Dallas, Texas “One day, while in the E.R., I saw a 3-year-old and 5-year-old, each with a single bullet hole to their head. When asked what happened, their father and brother said they had been told that Israel was backing out of Khan Younis. So they returned to see if anything was left of their house. There was, they said, a sniper waiting who shot both children.” Dr. Ahlia Kattan, Anesthesiologist and critical care doctor, 37 years old, Costa Mesa, Calif. “I saw an 18-month-old little girl with a gunshot wound to the head.” Dr. Nidal Farah, Anesthesiologist, 42 years old, Toledo, Ohio “I saw many children. In my experience the gunshot wound was often to the head. Many had non-curable, permanent brain damage. It was almost a daily occurrence to have children arrive at the hospital with gunshot wounds to the head.” Times Opinion sent questions about the experiences of these American health care workers to the Israel Defense Forces. A spokesperson for the I.D.F. responded with a statement that did not directly answer whether or not the military had investigated reports of shootings of preteen children, or if any disciplinary action had been taken against soldiers for firing at children. The statement began, “The I.D.F. is committed to mitigating civilian harm during operational activity. In that spirit, the I.D.F. makes great efforts to estimate and consider potential civilian collateral damage in its strikes. The I.D.F. is fully committed to respecting all applicable international legal obligations, including the Law of Armed Conflict.” NOTE: Israeli sources, including the government itself, have a long track record of lying (for example, this and this and this.) Israel’s self-investigations consistently whitewash its crimes and fail to appropriately punish the perpetrators. These photographs of X-rays were provided by Dr. Mimi Syed, who worked in Khan Younis from Aug. 8 to Sept. 5. She said: “I had multiple pediatric patients, mostly under the age of 12, who were shot in the head or the left side of the chest. Usually, these were single shots. The patients came in either dead or critical, and died shortly after arriving.” These photographs of X-rays were provided by Dr. Mimi Syed, who worked in Khan Younis from Aug. 8 to Sept. 5.

According to social media posts, Loffredo was detained on Tuesday along with four other journalists who were “beaten, blindfolded, and taken to an Israeli military base.” They also had their phones confiscated. Loffredo remains in custody, while the others, including Andrey X, were released 11 hours later. Loffredo’s last video posted on X reported the damage caused by the Iranian missile strikes on Israel’s military sites on 1 October. Social media users believe this is the reason for his detention as no local news organisations have covered the damage from the attack.

These data are supported by independent analyses, comparing changes in the number of deaths of UN Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) staff with those reported by the Ministry, which found claims of data fabrication implausible.] This is expected to be a significant undercount since thousands of those killed have yet to be identified – and at least 749 in the West Bank (~164 children). This does not include an estimated 10,000 more in Gaza still buried under rubble (4,900 women and children). Euro-Med Monitor reports 49,032 Palestinian deaths. Lancet: “Applying a conservative estimate of four indirect deaths per one direct death9 to the 37,396 deaths reported, it is not implausible to estimate that up to 186 000 or even more deaths could be attributable to the current conflict in Gaza. Ralph Nader earlier estimated 300,000 Palestinians may have been killed in Gaza. At least 45 Palestinians have died in Israeli prisons (27 from Gaza, 25 from West Bank). At least 41 Palestinians have died due to malnutrition (at least 37 of them children)**. About 1.9 million of Gaza’s 2.3 million population are currently displaced. Almost 500,000 Gazans are currently experiencing catastrophic levels of food insecurity. Palestinian injuries from October 7 – October 9, 2024: at least 104,086 (including at least 97,886 in Gaza and 6,200 in the West Bank, including 830 children). [It remains unknown how many Americans are among the casualties in Gaza.] Reported Israeli death toll from October 7, 2023 – October 9, 2024: ~1,457 (~1,139 on October 7, 2023, of which ~32 were Americans, and ~36 were children); 293*** military forces since the ground invasion began in Gaza; 25 military and civilians in the West Bank, East Jerusalem, and Israel) and~10,000 injured. The death toll in Lebanon since October 8, 2023 is at least 2,141 and 10,099 injuries. An estimated 1.2 million have been displaced. NOTE: It is unknown at this time how many of the deaths and injuries of Israelis on October 7 were caused by Israeli soldiers. *Previously, IAK did not include 471 Gazans killed in the Al Ahli hospital blast since the source of the projectile was being disputed. However, given that much evidence points to Israel as the culprit, Israel had previously bombed the hospital and has attacked many others, Israel is prohibiting outside experts from investigating the scene, and since the UN and other agencies are including the deaths from the attack in their cumulative totals, if Americans knew is now also doing so. **Euro-Med Monitor reports that Gaza’s elderly are dying at an alarmingly high rate. The majority die at home and are buried either close to their residences or in makeshift graves dispersed across the Strip. There are currently more than 140 such cemeteries. Additionally, according to Euromed, thousands have died from starvation, malnourishment, and inadequate medical care; these are considered indirect victims as they were not registered in hospitals. ***The figure does not include the reportedly 56 Israeli soldiers – nearly 16% of the total Israeli military deaths – killed due to friendly fire in Gaza and other military-related accidents. † For most of the conflict, women and children accounted for about 70% of deaths in Gaza, with children making up a little over 40% of those killed, according to official statistics.
