Israel attacking Gaza hospital     

The Israeli genocide in the Gaza Strip has entered its 41st day as the regime keeps pounding the blockaded territory with airstrikes. Israel is now pressing ahead with its raid on al-Shifa hospital, which has turned into the focal point of its deadly raids. According to Gaza health officials, Israeli army’s bulldozers and tanks have destroyed parts of the southern entrance to the medical complex. Local sources said Israeli bulldozers and tanks have also raided the complex’s western entrance. The regime’s military has confirmed that its raid on the facility, which started on Wednesday, is still going on. Hospital officials and doctors say the complex’s water reserve has been nearly depleted, putting the lives of patients and people sheltering there at risk. They have also rejected Israeli claims of delivering medical aid to al-Shifa, saying the regime’s forces are deliberately sabotaging the existing equipment. Israeli forces entered the complex, claiming that it was atop a military command center of Hamas resistance movement. Hamas, however, has categorically denied the regime’s allegation, saying Israel lies about finding weapons at the complex.

Hezbollah hits Israeli sites 

Lebanon’s Hezbollah movement continues to target Israeli positions along the border areas in support for the Palestinian resistance in the besieged Gaza Strip. The movement said in several statements that it had fired rockets and precision-guided missiles at seven Israeli military sites on Wednesday. It said the attacks directly hit their targets, causing casualties among the regime’s forces. A number of Israeli military vehicles were also destroyed. Hezbollah and Israeli troops have been engaged in direct clashes since the regime’s brutal war on Gaza started on October the 7th. The movement says attacks against Israel will continue until it stops its war crimes against Palestinians in the blockaded territory.

'US ignores Israel war crimes'     

The administration of US President Joe Biden is facing scathing criticism over its unbridled support for Israel’s genocidal war on the besieged Gaza Strip. A former State Department official says domestic policy concerns are leading US officials willfully to ignore "Israeli war crimes and stifle dissent over arming Tel Aviv". Josh Paul says many officials are disturbed by the actions of the Israeli military in Gaza, but they turn a blind eye to rules governing arms transfers to the regime. He says many government officials, including elected officials at a very senior level , share the same opinion but are not willing to say it in public because they could lose their jobs. Paul quit his post last month over Washington’s support for Tel Aviv. A leaked memo obtained by the American news website, Axios, revealed that 100 US government employees say Israel is committing war crimes. They believe that Biden’s support for the regime has made him complicit in the ongoing genocide in Gaza.
