Gaza’s healthcare crisis – Babies on the brink as medical supplies fall short

While aid is trickling into Gaza, medicine, specialised equipment and nutritional supplements are still in short supply. That’s put a lot of lives at risk, especially malnourished children, who’ve borne the brunt of war for more than two years.

Many now need to leave Gaza for life-saving healthcare.



Civilians killed in Gaza for crossing no-go line ‘they don’t even know exists’

Breaking the Silence, a rights group formed by veterans of Israel’s armed forces, has blasted Israeli troops for shooting civilians in Gaza for their supposed crossing of the “yellow line”, behind which Israel’s military has redeployed as part of the ceasefire.

Breaking the Silence, which monitors abuses of Palestinians in the occupied territory, said civilians are being shot and killed in Gaza for “crossing a line they don’t even know exists”.

“Let’s be clear: that line exists only on a map, not on the ground,” the group said in a post on social media. “The same rules of engagement we’ve seen near the GHF ‘aid sites’ and across the Strip: ‘no-go zones’ cross them, and you get shot,” it said.

Anyone who enters a “no-go zone” is automatically “sentenced to death”, the group added.
