Israeli military strikes a third tall residential building in Gaza City, advising residents towards the southern region of the city.
In the ongoing conflict in Gaza, the death toll continues to rise. According to reports, at least 2,416 Gazans have died while trying to obtain food at humanitarian aid points or near military posts. The Israeli Army has also reportedly killed at least 64,368 Gazans since the war began.
On Saturday, the Al-Ru'ya building in Gaza City was destroyed, marking the third building in the city to be destroyed in the last three days. The attacked building is known to be used by the terrorist organization Hamas, and it is reported that Hamas had placed numerous explosives within the building. At least 83 people died in the Gaza Strip on Saturday from Israeli attacks. No victims were reported from the projectile launches.
The Israeli Army has attacked a third high-rise building in Gaza City, and the Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, claims that more than 100,000 Gazans have left Gaza City. Netanyahu is willing to accept "damage" to Israel's international image to achieve victory in the Gaza war.
Efforts to negotiate continue in Egypt, with US President Donald Trump issuing an "ultimatum" to Hamas to accept a deal to release hostages. Hamas, however, rejects disarmament until there is a Palestinian state with Jerusalem as its capital. The organization is open to taking part in a long-term truce, but only after the establishment of a Palestinian state.
In a related development, two drones were launched by the Houthis from Yemen, one of which hit the Ramon International Airport in southern Israel. The ships of the 'Global Sumud Flotilla' have postponed their departure without setting a date.
Meanwhile, around 41,000 people have left the north of the Gaza enclave to go south since August 14. The Israeli Army has designated a new "humanitarian zone" in Jan Yunis, but the search results do not provide information on which authority ordered the evacuation of residents from a specific area in Jan Yunis or the date when this was ordered.
Two projectiles were fired from the Gaza Strip towards the Israeli border, and one projectile fell in an uninhabited area, while the other was intercepted. However, the exact details regarding the launch of these projectiles are not clear at this time.
In a concerning development related to the humanitarian crisis, it is reported that 387 Palestinians have died from causes related to malnutrition and hunger since the start of the war. These numbers underscore the urgent need for a ceasefire and a resolution to the ongoing conflict.
Hamas remains steadfast in its commitment to a long-term truce, but only after the establishment of a Palestinian state. The ongoing negotiations in Egypt offer a glimmer of hope for a peaceful resolution to the conflict, but the situation remains volatile and uncertain.
