US-Israeli Gaza genocide

The Gaza Strip is still reeling from deadly attacks by Israel. The regime’s onslaught killed over a dozen people across the territory overnight on Sunday. Palestinian media say at least three kids are among the dead. This includes a mother and a child, who were killed in the bombing of a residential building in Gaza City. The other fatalities were from airstrikes on Bureij refugee camp and the southern city of Rafah. The situation also remains difficult in al-Awda and Indonesian hospitals in the north. There, people have had no access to almost all supplies since five days ago. Meanwhile, Gaza’s health ministry says an eighth child has lost his life as winter cold takes its toll on displaced Palestinians in the territory. He was just 35 days old. The Israeli genocide in Gaza has killed more than 45,800 Palestinians since October 2023. The regime’s onslaught has left another 109,000 people injured.

Rising anti-Israeli sentiment

At least three Israelis have been killed and several others injured in a shooting operation in the northern occupied West Bank. According to Israeli sources, the operation took place near the settlement of Kadumim, east of Qalqilia. Sources say the gunfire erupted from inside a car targeting both a bus and an Israeli vehicle. The situation remains tense as the Israeli military has surrounded the city of Nablus and implemented strict security measures. The Hamas resistance movement has hailed the operation, adding that it proved anti-Israeli resistance will continue despite the regime’s terrorism and its tough security measures. Over the past months, Israel has intensified its deadly crackdown across the West Bank, carrying out violent raids against Palestinian cities and towns almost on a daily basis.

S Korea political crisis

South Korean investigators seek extension of arrest warrant for impeached president Yoon Suk Yeol, as the current arrest warrant for the embattled leader is set to expire on Monday. The Corruption Investigation Office for High-ranking Officials, known as the CIO, has formally requested police assistance to detain the President. The move follows an unsuccessful attempt by the investigators last Friday to detain him at his residence in Seoul. The hours-long standoff ended without any action being taken. Yoon became the country's first sitting president to face arrest over his botched attempt to declare martial law on December 3rd, triggering political chaos in the country. He has since holed up in the presidential residence, surrounded by hundreds of loyal security officers resisting arrest efforts.
