Tens of thousands of displaced people, armed clashes between clans, and children begging on the streets. Once known as a stronghold for businessmen and senior Hamas operatives, Gaza City's Rimal neighborhood is now a place of fear and desperation.
Thousands of Gazans breached a newly opened aid distribution center aid after one of the security checkpoints collapsed under the pressure of the crowd. According to Israeli sources, inspectors abandoned the checkpoint, allowing throngs of people to flood into the area, some even climbing onto protective embankments.
The UN and other international organizations have opposed the new distribution framework backed by Israel. Meanwhile, a senior Hamas official reiterated that the terrorist organization had accepted the ceasefire proposal.
Opposition leader said as Gaza distribution centers begin operating: "Were Israeli security services sent by Netanyahu and Smotrich to transfer funds abroad?" Prime Minister’s spokesman: "Israel is not funding humanitarian aid to the Strip."
The IDF launched a pilot program for operating a central distribution center for humanitarian aid to Palestinian civilians in Gaza. The packages include staples such as rice, pasta, sugar, oil, and more.
Spanish Foreign Minister José Manuel Albares called to impose sanctions on Israel to stop the ongoing war in Gaza. The Maltese prime minister also announced that starting next month, his country would recognize a Palestinian state.
Since the start of the war, nearly 54,000 were killed, and 122,797 were wounded. According to the IDF, approximately 20,000 terrorists have been eliminated.
After a delay in the launch of a new humanitarian aid initiative for Gaza, and amid disturbing footage of looting, senior Israeli political officials now claim the new framework will begin operating as early as Monday.
Then-Chief of Staff Herzi Halevi told Netanyahu rescuing October 7 hostages was 'impossible' in war's first hours for fear that residents would lynch them.
