Gaza, the death toll continues to rise: 110 dead in yesterday's Israeli raids in the Strip
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was quick to reject the New York Times' accusations that Netanyahu allegedly intentionally prolonged the conflict in the Gaza Strip for personal political gain, namely to rehabilitate his own internal image and maintain his position of power. This "defamed Israel, its brave people and its soldiers, as well as its prime minister," Netanyahu said. Meanwhile, the Israeli army announced the killing of Muhammad Adin , commander of the Darj Tofah battalion, which operates in the central Gaza Strip. At the same time, Tel Aviv accepted a 60-day ceasefire proposal from Qatar , which also included the release of the hostages, which was rejected by Hamas.
However, as a negotiated solution is sought, casualties continue to mount: at least 34 Palestinians were killed and over 180 injured between Friday and Saturday when Israeli forces opened fire on a crowd gathered near the Al-Shakoush humanitarian aid distribution point, north of Rafah. Local health sources reported that the overall death toll in Gaza had reached 87 following the incessant bombardment, rising to 110 yesterday, as Al Jazeera reported. At least 34 of the dead were queuing to receive food supplies at a distribution center run by the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation. On the diplomatic front, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi reiterated Tehran's commitment to promoting political dialogue on the Iranian nuclear issue.
