Humanitarian aid for Gaza

A convoy of aid trucks has entered the Gaza Strip through the Rafah crossing in the southern Gaza Strip as the ceasefire agreement between Hamas and Israel remains in effect. The convoy comprised of dozens of trucks loaded with food, fuel and medical supplies. The entry of the basic supplies into Gaza was blocked by Israel for months. This comes as the regime is yet to end its deadly attacks on the Palestinian territory despite gradually withdrawing its forces. One of the latest attacks killed several Palestinian civilians. Aid workers also recovered the bodies of one hundred twenty-one civilians from under the rubble on Saturday. Gaza’s health ministry says two years of Israeli genocide has killed nearly 67,700 people and injured over 170, others. These include 463 Palestinians, who died of malnutrition. 

Israel genocide in Gaza

A hacker group has published the names and photos of over a dozen people involved in Israeli crimes, including the genocide in Gaza. Handala released the information under the title “Israel must now await a harsh punishment”. The source of the data was not disclosed. According to the information on Handala’s website, the named individuals work for Israel’s air force, military industries, key intelligence technologies and intelligence operations units. The released data includes personal information such as education and work backgrounds of the targeted individuals. The hacker group has warned that the individuals are under its watch for punishment. The pro-Palestinian hacking group had previously launched a series of hacking attacks on the Israeli fuel distribution system, the regime’s air defense systems and its military satellites. Handala had also infiltrated the much-hyped Israeli air defense system, the Iron Dome.

Afghan-Pakistan border clashes

Tensions have escalated into violence along the Pakistan-Afghanistan border. Following a series of airstrikes earlier this week, heavy clashes have prompted Pakistan to shut all border crossings, with both sides reporting significant casualties. The Taliban government in Kabul claims its forces launched a revenge operation, stating it killed 58 Pakistani soldiers and overran two dozen border posts. They call it retaliation for Pakistani airstrikes on Afghan territory, including the capital. Pakistan has denied those earlier strikes and strongly condemned what it calls Afghan provocations. Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif is vowing a strong and effective response. While the Taliban has announced its operation is over, it warns it is ready to act again if provoked. Amid the escalating crisis, a call for calm has come from a neighboring power. Iranian Foreign Ministry has urged both sides to exercise restraint, stating that stability between them contributes to the stability of the entire region.
