‘Apocalyptic’ consequences is current aid situation persists: Griffiths

The UN’s humanitarian aid chief says on X that if fuel and aid do not begin to enter Gaza soon, “the famine we’ve warned about will no longer be looming – it will be present”.

Griffiths acknowledged that a new maritime aid delivery operation is bringing in some aid, but that this is “no replacement” for land routes.

Land routes for aid to enter Gaza have been shut for some time, after Israeli forces seized and closed the Rafah border crossing between Egypt and the Strip last week.

Here’s a look at recent developments:

According to local media reports, White House National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan has arrived in Israel and begun his meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
The Qassam Brigades and al-Quds Brigades have said they engaged the Israeli forces in Rafah in southern Gaza.
The director of Kamal Adwan Hospital in Beit Lahiya in northern Gaza has told Al Jazeera Arabic that since yesterday, the hospital has received about 60 bodies, most of them women and children, due to the Israeli bombing of a crowded residential area in Jabalia.
The Israeli military has claimed killing Hamas official Azmi Abu Daqqa, who was reportedly involved with the supply of weapons and funds to the Palestinian group.
Videos verified by Al Jazeera’s Sanad fact-checking unit have shown illegal Israeli settlers in the occupied West Bank attacking aid trucks heading to the Gaza Strip.
Gaza’s civil defence has announced that Israel’s forces have destroyed 300 homes in Jabalia in northern Gaza since the beginning of its operation in the city earlier this month.
The Government Media Office in Gaza has reported that Israeli forces had prevented 3,000 aid trucks from entering Gaza in the past two weeks.
Israeli forces have intensified attacks across the Gaza Strip, killing at least 20 people in the Nuseirat refugee camp and nine Palestinians in Gaza City.
Netanyahu has responded to Gantz’s call for a post-war plan for Gaza, saying the war cabinet member’s demands would mean a “defeat for Israel”

Any Israel-approved group ruling post-war Gaza to face opposition: Report

Locals in Gaza say no Israel-approved group could take control in the war-torn coastal enclave, according to sources cited by Israeli media outlet Haaretz.

One unnamed prominent personality in Gaza told Haaretz: “Anyone who dares to take on the task is at best an executive contractor who has no ability to withstand pressure, and at worst will be under the auspices of Israel, and therefore will not receive cooperation from the Palestinian factions, including from the Palestinian Authority for its mechanisms, certainly not from Hamas.”

Moreover, political factions in Gaza and senior officials in Ramallah are unanimous regarding what they deem to be the “ultimate solution to the situation” – the introduction of a “multinational force into Gaza that will operate under the auspices of the United Nations”, Haaretz reported.

This arrangement would be for a limited time period, Haaretz noted, until a political process is undertaken to reach a two-state solution, the media outlet said.
