    What Is All Eyes On Rafah?

    After 45 people died in civilian camps following airstrike by Israel, netizens and key personalities expressed their solidarity with Palestine by sharing a graphic image on which it was written ‘All Eyes On Rafah’. People prayed for the safety of civilians in Rafah through their social media posts and called for an immediate ceasefire in the ongoing Israel-Hamas war.

    Why did the US not call for ceasefire?

    The White House said that its policy related to the Israel-Hamas war won’t change following Rafah’s ‘airstrike’ mistake. Though the US said that it would seek answers from Israel. The US administration hinted that the Isarel has not crossed the ‘red line’ yet. The United States’ firm stance with Israel suggests that the Biden administration wants Hamas to surrender and return those in its captivity.

    Israel’s Advances in Rafah

  • Who was involved in the rocket attack on Gaza hospital? This name emerged from French intelligence analysis

    Israel Hamas War: French military intelligence’s assessment indicates that the most likely cause of the massive explosion at Al-Ahli hospital in Gaza City was a Palestinian rocket, which was carrying about five kilograms of explosives and had probably failed. A senior officer of the French Army gave this information. An intelligence official said on Friday that several rockets in the arsenal of the Palestinian extremist group Hamas contain approximately the same weight of explosives, including one Iranian-made rocket and another Palestinian-made rocket. The official said that none of his intelligence pointed to an Israeli attack in this incident.

    What is confidential report?

    The official said the analysis is based on classified information, satellite images, intelligence shared by other countries and open-source information. The explosion left a crater in the hospital complex, the size of which was estimated by French military intelligence to be approximately one meter long, 75 centimeters wide, and approximately 30 to 40 centimeters deep. The officer said that it appears that the crater was created by explosives weighing about five kilograms. The official said that the crater was formed slightly from south to north, which suggests that the explosive hit at an oblique angle from south to north.

    Israel had denied involvement

    Authorities in Hamas-ruled Gaza blamed Israeli airstrikes for the hospital explosion on Tuesday. Israel denied any involvement in the hospital blast and released video, audio and other evidence, saying the blast was caused by a rocket fired by Islamic Jihad, another Palestinian militant group. However, Islamic Jihad denied any involvement in the incident. There is also controversy over the number of people killed in the incident. Within an hour of the explosion, Gaza’s health ministry said 500 people were killed. After this, on Wednesday, without giving details of the dead, he revised it to 471. The Israeli army told reporters that the death toll had been exaggerated.

    The death toll was in the hundreds

    French military intelligence officer said that nothing can be said with confidence. But we do not think that a rocket of this size can kill 471 people. it’s not possible. A US intelligence report has estimated that around 100 to 300 Palestinians are likely to have been killed in the explosion at the hospital. In Gaza too, contradictory estimates were made about the dead. Al-Ahli Hospital officials, without giving any concrete numbers, only said that the death toll was in the hundreds.

    Mohammed Abu Selmiya, director general of Shifa, Gaza’s largest hospital, said that based on the number of casualties coming into the hospital centre, he believed the death toll was closer to 250. At the same time, two eyewitnesses said that the number of deaths was not in hundreds, but in dozens. Gaza officials also said that the explosion left pieces of bodies scattered everywhere, complicating the task of ascertaining the death toll.

    Israel has continuously bombed Gaza since the weekend attack. Hamas fighters attacked the southern region of the country and massacred hundreds of people. They also killed children and youth attending a concert. Hamas has kidnapped 150 people and taken them to Gaza. Hamas said that 13 hostages, including foreigners, were killed in the heavy bombardment by Israel on the Gaza Strip.

Israel has alleged that Hamas fighters are hiding in tunnels in Gaza City. UN spokesman Stephane Dujarric said, “The United Nations believes that it is impossible for such an operation to be completed without humanitarian tragedy.” He said Israel has issued a blanket evacuation order asking half of Gaza’s population to move to the south of the territory within 24 hours.

Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Galant said in a press conference with US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin, “Common people are a shield for terrorists. In such a situation, we need to separate them. Therefore, those who want to save their lives, please move towards southern Gaza.

No. We don’t know anything.

    Another family contacted friends and relatives in southern Gaza in search of shelter, but then changed their minds. Many worry that they will not be able to return or will be gradually displaced to Egypt’s Sinai Peninsula. More than half of the Palestinians in Gaza are descendants of people who became refugees in the war that broke out during Israel’s establishment in 1948. Thousands of people fled or were expelled from Israel in that war. The United Nations said on Thursday that at least 423,000 people are already forced to become homeless due to Israeli air strikes. Gaza’s health ministry said it was impossible to remove many of the injured from hospitals. Ministry spokesman Ashraf al-Qidra said, “We cannot empty hospitals and leave the wounded and sick to die.
