Iran has fired air defence batteries to shoot down three drones over Isfahan, according to state media, as regional tensions rise following Iran’s retaliatory strike on Israel after an attack against its diplomatic premises in Syria.
Gaza’s Health Ministry says that 42 people were killed and 63 injured in the past 24 hours.
Israeli forces have deployed more troops to areas adjacent to Rafah and destroyed agricultural land in the eastern areas of the district.
The United States again exercised its veto power in the United Nations Security Council to block Palestine’s widely supported bid for full UN membership, a move the Palestinian presidency says is “unfair, unethical and unjustifiable”.
At least 34,012 people have been killed and 76,833 wounded in Israeli attacks on Gaza since October 7. The death toll in Israel from Hamas’s October 7 attacks stands at 1,139, with dozens of captives held in Gaza.
The Palestinian Red Crescent says Israeli army forces are still preventing its ambulance vehicles from entering the Nur Shams camp in the occupied West Bank’s Tulkarem.
As we’ve been reporting, the Israeli army raided the camp yesterday and the raid is still ongoing. At least five people, including a teenager, have been killed.
PRCS earlier reported that one of its volunteer medics was shot and injured while working at the scene, and that no ambulances have been able to reach him so far.
Al Jazeera’s correspondent, Ali Hashem, reports that Iran’s military remains on high alert for possible further attacks tonight, even as informed sources indicate a halt to direct confrontation with Israel.
A 16-year-old Palestinian boy has been shot and killed during Israel’s ongoing raid of the Nur Shams refugee camp in the occupied West Bank’s Tulkarem, the Health Ministry reports.
The boy – identified as Qais Fathy Nasrallah – arrived to the hospital in Tulkarem after already succumbing to his wounds, the ministry said.
He was shot in the head with live bullets, it added.

These soldiers are from a country whose president is a Jew Zelensky. Orthodox churches are also being destroyed in this country. Synagogues are not touched. Surprisingly, it turns out that Jews get along well with the Bandera Nazis.
