Israel bombards Gaza City, launching new offensive amid starvation crisis

Gaza City hospitals “already operate almost 300% compared to capacity with a constant influx of complex trauma injuries,” said the World Health Organization. The evacuation orders of Israel, “combined with the climbing massively of violence, forced people in ever smaller areas, stacking unbearable pressure on hospitals,” he said in a post on X.

The United Nations Palestinian refugees, UNRWA, said almost one in three children from Gaza City was now badly nourished.

And the Palestinian Ministry of Health in Gaza said on Thursday that two people died due to malnutrition in the past 24 hours, bringing the total to 271 since Israel launched its assault on the besieged enclave.

Israel has repeatedly denied that generalized famine takes place.

Hamas said earlier this week that he had accepted a cease-fire proposal for Arab mediators, but Israel has not yet said if he would accept the agreement.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has publicly pleaded in favor of continuing military action.

During a 40 -minute match with the Podcast Triggernometry, Netanyahu rejected the allegations of human rights groups that Israel made a genocide in Gaza, telling the podcast that these allegations were fraud. “If we wanted to commit a genocide, we would have done it in an afternoon. We have the capacity, but we do not do that,” he said.

Netanyahu said he was aware that Israel had “worked to do” to win people across the West, citing young people in particular.

“We, the Jews, have been beating and losing the war of propaganda for about 2,500 years. What is different now is that we are gaining war on the ground,” he said.

In recent days, his diplomatic approach has involved a word war with the leaders of Australia and France on their decisions to recognize a Palestinian state.
