Gaza Crisis Deepens as Israeli Strikes Kill 60 Amid Aid Shortages

  Israeli airstrikes have killed at least 60 people across Gaza, intensifying the humanitarian crisis in the region. The strikes targeted residential areas, including a family home and a school-turned-shelter, leading to significant civilian casualties.  Despite mounting international pressure, Israel has allowed only minimal aid into Gaza, far below the necessary levels to address the growing humanitarian needs. UN agencies report that while some trucks carrying food and medical supplies have entered, the amount remains insufficient compared to the 600 trucks per day that were permitted during a previous ceasefire.  The ongoing conflict has displaced nearly 90% of Gaza’s population, with many facing dire shortages of food, medicine, and shelter.

Centrist Benny Gantz Resigns from Israeli War Cabinet Amid Frustrations with Netanyahu

 

Benny Gantz, a centrist member of Israel’s three-man war Cabinet, announced his resignation on Sunday, citing Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s mismanagement of the war effort and prioritization of his own “political survival” over the country’s security needs. Gantz’s departure does not immediately threaten Netanyahu’s majority coalition in parliament, but it leaves the Israeli leader more reliant on far-right allies who oppose the latest U.S.-backed cease-fire proposal and advocate for continued military action.

Gantz, a popular former military chief, had joined Netanyahu’s government shortly after the Hamas attack in a show of unity. His presence bolstered Israel’s credibility with international partners, particularly the United States. However, his frustration with Netanyahu’s lack of a new plan for postwar Gaza led to his decision to step down. Gantz called for elections in the fall and encouraged Defense Minister Yoav Gallant to follow suit and resign from the government as well.

The move highlights the ongoing tensions within the Israeli government and underscores the challenges of managing the conflict in Gaza. As Netanyahu faces increased reliance on right-wing members of his government, the international community watches closely, concerned about the impact on stability and prospects for peace in the region.
