The Israeli military is expanding its ground operations in Deir Al Balah

In the past two days, I’ve had only one meal just enough to keep me on my feet, not enough to feel alive. It’s the same reality for thousands of Palestinians here in Gaza. Clock is ticking

Dozens collapsed in the streets today, overcome by exhaustion and hunger. Many hadn’t eaten in days —some, not in over a week.

IOF struck a UN-run school in Al Burij refugee camp. Hundreds of shelters and so-called safe zones were attacked leaving families fending for themselves while the cycle of death continues.

In Gaza, the cost of a basic meal now exceeds $100, making survival nearly impossible for most families. Even formerly well-off Palestinians are queuing at aid centers and community kitchens, desperate for a single bowl of food to stay alive.

There is overwhelming deep ache and a bitter sense of betrayal in this image. Three small bodies, still and cold, lie before their father , victims of a brutality that knows no mercy. There are no cries left to echo, no words that can carry the weight of this grief.

Al Jazeera’s Tareq Abu Azzoum reports on the latest Israeli attacks across Gaza, amid ongoing ceasefire talks between Hamas and Israel.

Hamas has submitted a positive response to the ceasefire proposal, as mediators continue working to finalize the details and ensure the agreement’s implementation.

I’ve run out of words to describe the scale of brutality unfolding across Gaza. Today, I found myself staring at this photo for hours — frozen by the details. A father, lifeless, clutching his son’s body in his arms. Both killed. But even in death, their embrace speaks loudly.

The UN warns thousands of Gaza infants risk starvation as Israel’s blockade has depleted all formula milk. Doctors report a ‘silent catastrophe’, with 66 children already dead from malnutrition and 580 fragile infants at Nasser Hospital in critical danger.

The Israeli occupation forces struck a makeshift tent inside Al Aqsa Hospital. A journalist sitting next to me was injured in the attack. The strike caused partial damage to the hospital’s oxygen supply system, leading to cases of suffocation among patients.

People know the dangers. They’ve seen others killed in line. They’ve heard the strikes, the gunshots, the screams. But the hunger is louder. In Gaza, you don’t go to these centers because you believe in their safety. You go because starvation is already at your doorstep.

At least 71 Palestinians have been killed across Gaza since dawn today including 50 civilians who were seeking aid.

Crucified on the gallows of hunger.

Israel killed this morning 45 Palestinians who gathered near the eastern part of Khan Younis to collect food aid from GHF-run aid points.

Northern Gaza and Gaza City are experiencing a total internet blackout for the second consecutive day.

In Gaza’s makeshift tent camps, hunger echoes through the cries of children. I spoke to a father who had looted a bag of flour—not out of greed, but out of desperation. “I didn’t want to do it,” he told me. “But my children haven’t eaten bread in three days.” That’s it

Israeli drones renewed their shelling of the roof of a building inside Al-Aqsa Hospital in Deir al-Balah, central Gaza Strip for the third time.

Israel targeted the roof of the administration building of Al-Aqsa Hospital in Deir al-Balah with an explosive-laden drone.

Chief of Staff Eyal Zamir has instructed the expansion of the military operation to additional areas in the Gaza Strip.
