France, UK, Japan welcome ceasefire in Syria’s Suwayda
Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa has declared a ceasefire in the southern province of Suwayda, after days of deadly clashes between Druze and Bedouin factions that were compounded by Israeli military intervention.
Countries around the world have been welcoming the announcement, which followed a separate US-brokered deal to avert further Israeli attacks.
UK Foreign Secretary David Lammy said in a post on X that he was horrified by the violence in southern Syria and that “a sustainable ceasefire is vital”.
The French Foreign Ministry stressed the need for “Syrian authorities to ensure the safety and rights of all segments of the Syrian people” and called for investigations into abuses against civilians in Suwayda.
Japan also expressed concern over the violence, including the Israeli strikes, and called for the ceasefire to be implemented swiftly.
Rubio says US ‘heavily involved’ in talks on southern Syria
The secretary of state says the US has been speaking to Israel, Jordan and Syria over the last three days about “the horrifying and dangerous developments in southern Syria”.
“If authorities in Damascus want to preserve any chance of achieving a unified, inclusive and peaceful Syria free of ISIS and of Iranian control they must help end this calamity,” Marco Rubio wrote in a post on social media, using another name for ISIL.
He added that Syrian forces should “prevent ISIS and any other violent jihadists from entering the area and carrying out massacres”.
“Furthermore the fighting between Druze and Bedouin groups inside the perimeter must also stop immediately,” he said.
The Syrian government said its forces have cleared Bedouin fighters from the predominantly Druze city of Suwayda after President al-Sharaa ordered a new ceasefire between Bedouin and Druze groups.
Freed captive urges Netanyahu to end Gaza war and ‘make Israel great again’
We’ve been reporting on protests in Israel calling for an end to the war on Gaza and a deal to secure the release of the remaining captives. Among the protesters was freed captive Doron Steinbrecher. She spoke at Tel Aviv’s Hostages Square to thousands of people gathered there, according to The Times of Israel.
“Six months ago, I saw the sun for the first time after 471 days in the tunnels,” Steinbrecher, who was released from Hamas captivity as part of a truce deal in January, said at the weekly rally.
“Six months ago, I drew my first breath that wasn’t all fear. Now, after six months, I still can’t breathe … without fear,” she continued. “It’ll take time. And the first step is that everyone comes back.”
She then addressed Trump in English.
“We have met and spoken; I know how personally important this is to you, how deeply you are involved, and I know what you are capable of. Make it happen,” she said. “Let everyone emerge through the gates of hell so that we may rise.”
Captives’ families demand guarantees of safety amid military operation in Deir el-Balah
The families of Israeli captives held in Gaza have expressed concern and anxiety over the Israeli army’s announcement that it was expanding its ground operation in Deir el-Balah.
“Can anyone promise us that this decision will not come at the cost of losing our loved ones?” read a statement from the families.
The group added that it expects Netanyahu, the defence minister, and senior military officials to explain what is being done to protect the captives inside the Strip.
“Unfortunately, despite all the spin and false promises, many families have already learned firsthand the meaning of expanding the fighting in the shadow of negotiations and the lack of a clear war plan,” the statement said, referring to the recovery of six captives’ bodies last August.
Back then, the Israeli army said it was “highly probable” that their deaths were related to a strike near the location where they were held.
Captives’ families have repeatedly called for the government to halt the fighting and seal a deal for the return of those still held in Gaza.
Israeli forces destroying houses in northern Gaza
Israeli forces continue their attacks across Gaza this morning. Palestinian sources have told Al Jazeera that the Israeli army is carrying out operations to demolish a number of civilian houses in the Shujayea neighbourhood, east of Gaza City.
Israel drops leaflets demanding residents leave areas in Deir el-Balah
Israeli forces issued their latest forced displacement orders in seven blocks, including those within tents in Deir el-Balah. In footage verified by Al Jazeera, the army dropped leaflets over residential areas in Deir el-Balah, demanding that Palestinians leave due to an imminent attack.
While the army routinely orders Palestinians to forcibly relocate, the areas it claims are “safe zones” are also under attack, rendering no area in the enclave safe from Israeli fire.
Palestinians left with zero options after new evacuation threat
We are a couple of blocks away from where the evacuation order has been issued for. These are areas in the heart of Deir el-Balah and are densely populated.
Palestinians say they have nowhere else to go, and there is no space because most western areas or al-Mawasi are full of people and tents with no extra space. They are left with zero options.
Palestinians here are refusing to leave and say they are going to stay in their houses because even the areas designated as safe by the Israeli army have been targeted. Al-Mawasi is a large agricultural land with no water, food, health facilities, or sanitation.
Israeli army destroys three homes near Deir el-Balah
At least three homes were destroyed by Israeli air strikes south of Deir el-Balah, in the central Gaza Strip. Earlier, the Israeli army announced its latest forced displacement threats in Deir el-Balah, calling on residents from seven blocs in the area in advance of a military operation.
Israeli evacuation orders leave Palestinians risking death in designated ‘safe zones’
We are face to face with another Israeli misleading and largely contradictory enforced evacuation order. People are told, in order to avoid being bombed, to move to the al-Mawasi area that has been designated as a safe zone.
But since day one of the designation of this area, Palestinians have been killed, and maimed, and bombed there. This is not a safe zone, in fact, there is no safe zone in a warzone.
This is very misleading.
The Israeli army ordered the forced evacuation of the central part of Gaza (in Deir el-Balah) that has somehow remained intact. Many residential buildings, facilities, UNRWA schools, hospitals where people can take shelter properly, are still intact but are now at risk of being destroyed.
Since the evacuation order, the Israeli military bombed the area close to eight times, spreading fear among the residents who are still hesitant to leave the area.
They know that walking into al-Mawasi is like walking into a death trap where they are going to be killed within days, weeks, hours. It highlights the vulnerability of displaced people who have been displaced multiple times since the start of the war to the point that they have no other options other than staying in their homes in the central areas.
More people killed in Israeli attack on aid seekers
Palestinians gather to receive aid in Beit Lahiya
Israeli attacks have killed at least two people and wounded many waiting for aid northwest of Gaza City, a source at al-Shifa Hospital says.
Nine people were killed and 55 wounded by Israeli fire near an aid centre in northern Gaza.
Five Palestinians were killed near an aid centre north of Rafah, southern Gaza.
One of those attacks took place at Zikim crossing in northern Gaza. Moath al-Kahlout, our colleague on the ground, reported seeing at least 30 people – killed or wounded – from that attack brought to al-Shifa Hospital.
“Out of all those who went to the Zikim area seeking aid, only one person returned with a bag of flour. Approximately 30 others were brought back on animal-drawn carts, either dead or severely wounded.
“The scene is devastating.”
Video shows Palestinians pepper-sprayed at GHF site
Footage shared online and verified by Al Jazeera shows employees of a US security company spraying pepper gas on Palestinians seeking food at one of the GHF aid distribution hubs in the Shakoush area in southern Rafah.
According to local journalists, the footage was from July 10.

Death toll in Gaza rises
Gaza’s Health Ministry says at least 130 people have been killed and 495 wounded by Israeli attacks in the past 24 hours.
That brings the death toll since the start of Israel’s war to 58,895, with 140,980 people wounded.
At least 73 aid seekers killed
The Palestinian Health Ministry in Gaza is now reporting that at least 73 people waiting for aid have been killed across Gaza in Israeli attacks.
Four-year-old dies from malnutrition
Palestinian child Razan Abu Zaher, four, has died of complications from malnutrition and hunger, a source at Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in Gaza City told Al Jazeera.
As we reported earlier, the director of al-Shifa Hospital said two Palestinians died of starvation on Saturday, including a 35-day-old infant.
On Friday, the Palestinian Health Ministry said starving Palestinians are arriving in hospital emergency departments across Gaza in “unprecedented numbers”, as Israel continues to severely restrict access to food in Gaza and shoot people seeking aid.
Doctors at central Gaza hospital receiving malnutrition cases every hour
A 35-day-old baby in Gaza City and a four-month-old child in Deir el-Balah have died of malnutrition at Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital.
The mother was touching her body, saying, “I am sorry I could not feed you. I had no other options than to see you dying in front of my eyes.”
These are not the only two cases. There have been more in the past 72 hours. According to doctors at the hospital, they are receiving malnutrition cases every hour.
Parents go to the GHF distribution sites to risk getting killed or leave their children starving. There is no option in the market. Everything is very expensive. Parents say they are hungry and unable to secure a meal for their children.
We met a mother who said she is giving her children water to fill up their stomachs because she can’t afford flour. Even when she could, she did not find it.
There are many stories on how Palestinians are struggling. But the situation remains the same.
Hunger, malnutrition led to deaths of 86 people in Gaza
At least 86 people in Gaza, including 76 children and 10 adults, died due to hunger and malnutrition following Israel’s blockade on the enclave, according to Gaza’s Health Ministry.
On Telegram, the Health Ministry said the level of hunger and malnutrition in the enclave was leading to a “silent massacre”.
“The Ministry of Health holds the [Israeli] occupation and the international community responsible. We demand the immediate opening of crossings to allow food and medicine in,” the ministry said.
In the last 24 hours, 18 people died in Gaza due to famine, it found.
‘Israel now has a plan for ethnic cleansing’
Israeli political analyst Gideon Levy has accused the government of planning ethnic cleansing in Gaza.
“Someone conceived it, there were discussions of pros and cons, alternatives were suggested, options of total cleansing vs. stages, and all done in air-conditioned conference rooms with minutes taken and decisions made,” Levy wrote in an opinion piece in the Israeli newspaper Haaretz.
“For the first time since the war of revenge in Gaza began, it’s clear that Israel has a plan – and it’s a far-reaching one.
“This is no longer a rolling war. One can no longer accuse Benjamin Netanyahu of waging a war with no purpose. There is a purpose to this war, and it’s a criminal one. One can no longer tell army commanders that their troops are dying for no reason: They are dying in a war of ethnic cleansing.”
The article refers to the Israeli army’s plan to forcibly transfer Gaza’s entire population to a concentration zone in the south.
Pope Leo calls for end of ‘barbarity’ during Gaza war
Pope Leo has reiterated a call for the end of the “barbarity of war” during a service on Sunday as he spoke of his hurt after an Israeli attack on Gaza’s only Catholic church on Thursday.
After his Angelus prayer, Leo read out the names of the three people killed in the attacks and appealed to the international community to “observe humanitarian law and respect the obligation to protect civilians”.
“As well as the prohibition of collective punishment, of indiscriminate use of force and forced displacement of the population,” he added.
Following widespread condemnation, Israel issued several statements, including from the army and Netanyahu, expressing “deep regret” for the attack, in a rare move.
Another Israeli soldier dies by suicide
The Israeli army says another soldier has died by suicide, the fourth to do so in the past two weeks.
An army statement said Dan Phillipson, a soldier in training originally from Norway, shot himself on Tuesday at a training base in southern Israel. He died of his injuries in hospital.
According to Israeli media, 19 soldiers have died by suicide since the start of the year and 42 since the start of Israel’s war on Gaza.
‘No life without water’: Settler attacks threaten West Bank communities
Palestinians in the occupied West Bank say Israeli settler attacks on their water supplies are making it harder for them to stay in their villages.
“The settlers came, and the first thing they did was break the pipeline. And when the pipeline is broken, we have to stop pumping,” says Subhil Olayan.
“There is no life without water, of course,” added Olayan, who oversees a system of wells, pumps and pipelines supplying water to Palestinian villages, some of which exclusively rely on the Ein Samiyah spring, which was recently attacked by settlers. “The water just goes into the dirt, into the ground.”
The spring is the source of water for some 110,000 people, according to the Palestinian company that manages it.
Issa Qassis, its chairman, said he viewed settler attacks on water supplies as a tool for Israeli land grabs and annexation.
“When you restrict water supply in certain areas, people simply move where water is available,” he said. “So, in a plan to move people to other lands, water is the best and fastest way.”
Israeli forces bulldoze Palestinian land in Idhna, west of Hebron
Israeli forces bulldozed large areas of Palestinian-owned land in the town of Idhna, west of Hebron, in the occupied West Bank. Wafa reported, citing local sources, that the land was located at the main entrance to the town and belongs to Jihad Tmeizi.
Israeli forces claimed that the bulldozing was done under the pretext of searching for water pipelines linked to the Israeli water company, Mekorot. However, the bulldozers destroyed grape and lemon trees, damaged barbed wire fences, and levelled additional plots in the same area.
Aid ship for Gaza departs southern Italy
An aid ship heading to Gaza aiming to break Israel’s siege has departed the southern Italian port of Gallipoli, in what organisers, the Freedom Flotilla Coalition, called a “mission … for the children of Gaza”.
“In the face of genocide and deliberate starvation, every act of solidarity matters. As long as Israel enjoys impunity, violence will continue,” the organisers said.
On board the vessel, named the Handala, a repurposed 1968 Norwegian fishing trawler, are medical supplies, food and aid equipment for Palestinian children.
The ship is crewed by about 20 international participants, including European lawmakers, human rights activists, and journalists. It is expected to travel for approximately one week across the Mediterranean.
Member of European Parliament Emma Fourreau, who is on board the vessel, said they were “fully aware of the risks”. “But they are nothing compared to what children in Gaza endure every day. We stand for peace and international law,” Fourreau said in statements before departure.
The latest voyage comes a few weeks after the Madleen vessel, which was intercepted by Israeli naval forces before it reached Gaza.
