Israeli forces issue new evacuation orders for Gaza City’s Shujayea, prompting hundreds of Palestinians to flee after a day in which 38 people were killed across the enclave.
The death toll from Israel’s attack on central Beirut rose to 20, as rescuers continued to comb the rubble for survivors. At least 66 others were wounded.
Thousands of Israelis took to the streets of Tel Aviv, calling for a truce deal after Hamas said a female captive was killed in Israel’s relentless bombardment of northern Gaza.
Israel’s genocide in Gaza has killed at least 44,176 Palestinians and wounded 104,473 since October 7, 2023. An estimated 1,139 people were killed in Israel during the Hamas-led attacks that day, with more than 200 taken captive.
In Lebanon, at least 3,670 people have been killed and 15,413 wounded in Israeli attacks since the war on Gaza began.
