An Indian UN worker lost his life in Gaza after a targeted attack on a UN vehicle in Rafah, marking the first international casualty in the Israel-Hamas conflict. The incident highlights the risks faced by humanitarian workers in conflict zones. UN Secretary-General António Guterres condemned the attack, emphasising the need to protect humanitarian workers. Indian UN representative Ruchira Kamboj condemned civilian casualties and emphasised adherence to international law. The attack follows the UN's backing of Palestinian membership bid, with 143 countries, including India, voting for recognition, prompting a call for reconsideration by the Security Council after a US veto last month.

Hamas criticised US President Joe Biden on Sunday for linking a Gaza cease-fire to the release of Israelis held captive by the Palestinian group. Biden stated on Saturday that a cease-fire in Gaza could occur as soon as “tomorrow” if Hamas released Israelis in its custody. Hamas deemed this stance as a step backward from the outcomes of previous negotiations. They noted that their approval of a proposal, facilitated by mediators from Egypt and Qatar, had been done with the knowledge of the United States.

The Iraqi Resistance has launched another attack in Israel, targeting the Eilat Port with a new kamikaze drone. Claiming responsibility for the strike, the group stated it was in support of Gaza. This marks the first time the resistance group has used the Al-Arfad suicide drones, which bear resemblance to the Yemeni armed forces' Sammad line of attack drone. Previously relying on its own version of the Shahed-101 drone, the resistance released a video capturing the moment the drone struck the target in Eilat. However, details regarding the location of impact and casualties remain undisclosed. The Islamic Resistance in Iraq has been increasingly staging such attacks on Israeli targets, particularly since the Israeli offensive in Rafah, despite prior warnings.

Jabs designed to combat obesity might lower the likelihood of heart attacks, strokes, or heart failure among obese individuals, irrespective of the extent of weight loss experienced during the medication regimen. This indicates the potential for the treatment to yield benefits beyond mere reduction of excess body fat. Professor John Deanfield, who led the study, said the findings “have important clinical implications”. Report by Covellm.

The Court of Appeal has refused to change the sentence of Valdo Calocane, who killed three people in Nottingham last summer. Giving their judgment, the Lady Chief Justice Baroness Carr said: “There was no error in the approach adopted by the judge. “The sentences imposed were not arguably unduly lenient.” She concluded: “It is impossible to read of the circumstances of this offending without the greatest possible sympathy for the victims of these terrible attacks, and their family and friends."
