Israeli attacks on Gaza intensify as fighting with Iran rages
We are still witnessing another round of escalation on the ground today after repeated Israeli attacks. Much of the fighting has been concentrated in the northern part of Gaza, where Israeli ground operations are intensifying in all towns near Israel.
It has become clear that Israel’s strategy in this part of Gaza is aimed at destroying what remains of residential buildings and pushing civilians further towards the western edge of Gaza City.
It is increasingly obvious to everyone that these attacks are no longer about the defeat of Hamas, but rather inflicting further destruction on the already-battered Gaza Strip.
According to the latest update shared by the Gaza Government Media Office, more than 60 percent of the territory’s buildings have been destroyed.
Israel says last 3 Madleen ship activists deported to Jordan
Israel’s Foreign Ministry says the remaining activists from an aid ship that Israeli forces seized in international waters last week as it attempted to reach the besieged Gaza Strip have been sent to Jordan.
In a statement, the ministry said the trio – one Dutch and two French nationals – were transferred to the kingdom via the Allenby crossing.
The Madleen – carrying 12 activists, including climate campaigner Greta Thunberg – was intercepted by the military last Monday as it approached Israeli waters in an attempt to break the suffocating siege on Gaza.
Thunberg and three other activists agreed to be deported immediately, while eight others were detained by Israeli authorities, appearing before an immigration tribunal on Tuesday.
On Wednesday, the Foreign Ministry said those remaining in Israel would be flown to their home countries later that week. Five of the activists, including Rima Hassan, a member of the European Parliament, left on Thursday.
Freedom Flotilla confirms Israel freed last 3 Madleen ship activists
The Freedom Flotilla Coalition says the remaining activists from an aid ship that the Israeli army seized in international waters last week as it tried to reach besieged Gaza are returning to their home countries via Jordan.
Israel’s Foreign Ministry announced earlier that Marco van Rennes, Pascal Maurieras, and Yanis Mhamdi – one Dutch and two French nationals – were transferred to Jordan via the Allenby crossing.
The 12 activists – including climate campaigner Greta Thunberg – were forcibly abducted and detained by Israeli forces while attempting to break Israel’s siege of the enclave and deliver humanitarian aid to its population.
Thunberg and three other activists were forced to leave Israel immediately, while five of the activists, including Rima Hassan, a member of the European Parliament, left on Thursday.
