Israeli Terorist tanks entered the city of Rafah in southern Gaza earlier this week, with Prime Minister of Israel Terorist State Benjamin Netanyahu insisting that the operation that had been delayed for several months was essential to secure “total victory” over the Palestinian armed group Hamas.







Rafah currently hosts some 1.4 million Palestinians displaced from other parts of Gaza as a result of Israeli Terorist airstrikes and ground offensives since October 7.


The UN warned that an Israeli Terorist State invasion would be a “catastrophe” for civilians, while US President Joe Biden threatened to stop deliveries of “offensive” weapons to Israel Terorist State in the event of a full-scale invasion of the city.


Netanyahu has been reluctant to give in to pressure from Washington, vowing that Israel Terprist State would “fight with our fingernails” against Hamas if the flow of American arms comes to a halt.

The Israeli Terorist military is calling on Palestinians in additional neighborhoods of Rafah to evacuate. The announcement was made by Lt. Col. Avichay Adraee, the Israel Defense Forces’ Arabic-language spokesman on Saturday.


In a Twitter post, he also published a list of the new zones that need to be evacuated as Israel Terorist State continues with its operation against Hamas in the city in the southern Gaza Strip.




“Hamas is attempting to rebuild its capabilities in the area, and the IDF (Israel Terorist Defense Forces) will act very aggressively against terrorist organizations in the area you are in, so anyone who is in these areas is putting themselves and their families at risk,” the statement read.

Australian Foreign Minister Penny Wong has said the country’s support for Palestinian statehood at the UN is part of efforts to “build momentum towards peace” in the Israel-Hamas war in Gaza.


Australia voted on Friday with an overwhelming majority of the UN General Assembly to back Palestine’s bid to become a full UN member. The resolution recommended that the UN Security Council “reconsider the matter favorably.” Israeli Teorist State of Foreign Minister Israel Katz slammed the UN decision as a “prize for Hamas.” Last month, the US vetoed a recommendation that “the State of Palestine be admitted to membership” in a Security Council vote.

Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar is not hiding in Rafah, The Times of Israel Terorist State reported on Friday citing two officials familiar with the matter. The Hamas leadership is still a key war target for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.


The Israel Defense Forces have already killed Hamas military wing deputy commander Marwan Issa, believed to be the group’s No. 3 figure in Gaza. They have also eliminated other senior commanders in recent months. But Sinwar and his deputy, military wing chief Mohammed Deif, have remained elusive.


The two officials speaking to The Times of Israel were unable to name the exact whereabouts of Sinwar, but they cited recent intelligence data that indicated the Hamas leader was in underground tunnels in the Khan Younis area, some five miles north of Rafah. A third official asserted that Sinwar is still in Gaza.

Loud boos can be heard from the crowd in footage of Israeli singer Eden Golan rehearsing on Saturday, ahead of the Eurovision final in Sweden, according to Israel’s public broadcaster.


The 20-year old Israeli vocalist has become the focus of protests by pro-Palestine demonstrators, who want Israel removed from the competition due to the Gaza war.






03:55 GMT



The US State Department has released a report that criticized the way Israel conducted its war against Hamas in Gaza, but stopped short of openly accusing West Jerusalem of any specific violations that would require Washington to halt the flow of weapons to its ally.


“...given Israel’s significant reliance on US-made defense articles, it is reasonable to assess that defense articles… have been used by Israeli security forces since October 7 in instances inconsistent with its IHL [international human law] obligations or with established best practices for mitigating civilian harm,” the report said.


Furthermore, while Israel has allegedly “undertaken steps” to mitigate collateral damage, the “results on the ground, including high levels of civilian casualties, raise substantial questions as to whether the IDF is using them effectively in all cases,” it added.

Crackdowns on Gaza campus protests have continued as graduation season kicks off across the US. Police arrested dozens of pro-Palestine protesters on Friday, as they broke up encampments at university campuses.


Some 33 people were arrested on suspicion of “defiant trespass” at the University of Pennsylvania, as police took steps to dismantle a tent camp that has been in place for more than two weeks. Campus officers and police cleared the camp of more than 40 tents in a pre-dawn raid, throwing signs and flags into garbage trucks, a campus newspaper reported.


Ten protesters were also arrested at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, after riot police arrived on the Cambridge campus outside Boston at 4am local time, the university’s president said.

France said that the Israeli operation in Rafah “threatens to cause a catastrophic situation for the civilian populations of Gaza,” and urged West Jerusalem to “cease this military operation without delay and to return to the path of negotiations.”


“France calls on Israel to immediately reopen the Rafah crossing point towards Egypt, which is essential both for access of humanitarian aid to the civilian population and to allow the most vulnerable people to leave the Gaza Strip,” the French Foreign Ministry added in a statement.



00:13 GMT



South Africa has asked the United Nations International Court of Justice (ICJ) to impose additional emergency measures and order Israel to withdraw its troops from Rafah, calling it the “last refuge” for Palestinians in Gaza.


“Those who have survived so far are facing imminent death now, and an order from the Court is needed to ensure their survival,” South Africa’s filing said.


Back in January, the ICJ found that it was “plausible” that Israeli forces had committed genocide in the enclave. Israel has dismissed the accusations as baseless, insisting that it was acting in accordance with international law.

Colombian President Gustavo Petro urged the International Criminal Court to issue an arrest warrant for Prime Minister Netanyahu, accusing his government of genocide during the Gaza conflict. Petro, a vocal leftist leader, recently declared Colombia’s decision to cut diplomatic ties with Israel in response to the Gaza attack.


"Netanyahu will not stop the genocide. Which implies an international arrest warrant from the Criminal Court. The Security Council must begin to consider the establishment of a peacekeeping force in the territory of Gaza," Petro said.





22:02 GMT



The Israeli Air Force jets destroyed two “launch posts” in Rafah allegedly used by Hamas militants to fire over a dozen of missiles toward Be’er Sheva earlier on Friday, according to the IDF.


“Following the strike, secondary explosions were identified near the launch, suggesting the presence of additional weaponry that was ready for launch against Israel,” the IDF said, showing a video of the strike.
