Israel's war on Gaza, now in its 292nd day, has killed at least 39,145 Palestinians — the majority of them women and children –– and wounded 90,257 others, with 10,000+ estimated to be buried under the debris.

Israel's war on Gaza, now in its 292nd day, has killed at least 39,145 Palestinians — the majority of them women and children –– and wounded 90,257 others, with 10,000+ estimated to be buried under the debris. Germany is the second-largest weapons exporter to Israel in terms of major conventional weapons, accounting for more than 25 percent of imports between 2019 and 2023.

The footage broadcast by Hezbollah's Telegram channel showed Israel’s Ramat David airbase, with the Lebanese group describing it as"the most important airbases" in Israel and the"only military airbase in the north." Last week new Foreign Minister David Lammy, who has said he wants a balanced position on Israel and Gaza, said a blanket ban on arms exports to Israel would not be right, but he would follow a quasi-judicial process in assessing whether sales of offensive weapons that could be used in Gaza could proceed.Pakistan urged the Organization of Islamic Cooperation to initiate a"unified strategy" against Israel to protect Palestinians.

"Civilians, hospitals, schools, the United Nations workers, media offices and journalists are not safe from the indiscriminate campaign of Israeli bombs, bullets and massacres," it said, noting that mere condemnation was not enough, world needs to take practical actions.

The announcement came after the EU decided on July 15 to impose sanctions against five Israeli individuals and three organizations for their involvement in serious human rights violations against Palestinians in the West Bank, in addition to existing sanctions. "Violent crime must always have consequences, and we are now introducing sanctions against extremist settlers," Foreign Minister Espen Barth Eide said in a statement.

"I'm the political leadership and the political leadership authorises prayers on the Temple Mount," National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir told a symposium in the Israeli parliament. Starmer said he and Foreign Secretary David Lammy have set out the urgent need for a ceasefire with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

In a statement cited by the official Palestinian news agency Wafa, presidential spokesperson, Nabil Abu Rudeineh, said:"It is high time for the US administration and Congress to tell Netanyahu that he must immediately stop the war if there is a genuine American will to achieve peace and stability in the region, instead of allowing him to deceive the war-opposing world."

“Many people are still trapped under rubble and on the roads as rescuers are unable to reach them,” it added.The Israeli army for the third consecutive day continues its attacks in the eastern Khan Younis areas in southern Gaza amid heavy firing and destruction of Palestinian homes. The US announced on July 17 that it had decided to permanently dismantle the pier after it was plagued by bad weather and mechanical malfunctions and due to Israel not allowing humanitarian aid to pass into Gaza by land.

It added that the Israeli army's artillery continued to strike areas across Gaza, including Khan Younis and Rafah in southern Gaza, and the Bureij refugee camp in the central part. The announcement came more than five months after the Israeli government gave approval for Starlink's use in the hospital in Rafah, a flashpoint city in southern Gaza.Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is set to address the US Congress, which is expected to draw crowds of protesters and face a boycott by several Democratic lawmakers.

Netanyahu's address will mark his fourth speech before the legislative body, more than any other world leader, including former British Prime Minister Winston Churchill, who addressed Congress three times.
