Emergency teams move hastily buried Palestinians to cemeteries

The United Nations has reported that the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict has led to the worst economic collapse in Gaza's history, erasing decades of growth and plunging the region into a severe crisis. The humanitarian situation remains dire as essential services and infrastructure have been devastated by the violence.

Hundreds of Israeli soldiers, supported by armored vehicles, have launched a significant military operation in the Palestinian town of Tubas, marking the largest deployment in the West Bank since the recent ceasefire in Gaza. A curfew has been imposed, with roads blocked and families displaced to facilitate the operation. This action is part of a broader counter-terrorism initiative that Israeli military and security services state will continue for several days.

Israel has confirmed that Hamas and the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) have returned the body of Dror Or, a hostage from Gaza, amid ongoing tensions following a ceasefire that began six weeks ago. This handover highlights the complex dynamics of hostage negotiations in the region, where two other deceased hostages remain unreturned.

The Israeli military has initiated a significant operation in northern areas of the occupied West Bank, coinciding with a surge in violence since the onset of the Gaza conflict. This operation is distinct from the earlier 'Iron Wall' initiative, which has already displaced tens of thousands of Palestinians in the region.

Displacement of Palestinians in the West Bank has reached unprecedented levels, with Israeli settler violence escalating significantly, leading to widespread fear and unrest among the local population. Reports indicate that tens of thousands have been affected, particularly in areas like the Jenin refugee camp, which has become a focal point of resistance and conflict.

The United Nations has recently endorsed Trump's Gaza plan, raising concerns about the implications of Resolution 2803 for the Palestinian population and international law. This resolution appears to legitimize Israel's ongoing occupation, which many view as a significant shift in the UN's stance on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

The US-backed GHF has announced the cessation of its aid operations in Gaza following the deaths of over 2,000 Palestinians near its distribution sites, highlighting the severe humanitarian crisis in the region. This decision comes amid ongoing violence and instability, further complicating the already dire situation for civilians.

The United Nations has reported that the reconstruction of Gaza, devastated by Israel's military operations, will require at least $70 billion over several decades. The UN's trade and development agency, Unctad, highlighted that these operations have severely undermined the basic survival pillars for the 2.3 million residents, leading to extreme poverty levels.
