Israel claims it targeted fighters who had launched a rocket towards Israel; highway blocked in Tel Aviv by early morning protest
The Palestine Red Crescent Society has posted to social media to accuse Israeli security forces of preventing ambulances reaching sick or wounded people 95 times in the Israeli-occupied West Bank since 7 October. It says that they have “endangered lives in violation of international humanitarian law”.
Hani Mahmoud, reporting for Al Jazeera from Rafah, has said there is a despondent mood about the prospects of getting aid, particularly in the north of the Gaza Strip.
We heard from a hungry and largely traumatised population stranded in the Gaza Strip asking what is the purpose of getting those trucks into Gaza and its northern area if they’re getting shot at. It is getting very difficult and there is so much danger involved in the whole process. The Kuwaiti roundabout is now known as a death trap.
