Israel has launched a massive new offensive in Gaza, killing at least 81 Palestinians in the opening wave of attacks and forcing over one million civilians into danger. The IDF has called up 50,000 reservists to expand operations, sparking fears of mass displacement. Hamas vowed to continue its âwar of attrition,â while clashes left dozens dead, including fighters and civilians. The U.S. escalated tensions by sanctioning ICC officials over war crime probes, drawing criticism from rights groups and world leaders who warn of a worsening humanitarian crisis.

In a stunning battlefield reversal, the IDF admitted to its first major failure in southern Gaza after Hamas fighters launched a sudden tunnel ambush. Over 20 Hamas operatives emerged, splitting into groups and striking with rifles, grenades, and RPGs. The clash led to intense close combat, leaving three Israeli soldiers wounded and several Hamas fighters dead. Despite airstrikes and tanks being called in, eight militants escaped underground. Analysts say this attack is a warning of the brutal battles ahead if Israel pushes deeper into Gaza.

Seventeen U.S. Senate Democrats, led by a Jewish senator, are demanding accountability from Secretary of State Marco Rubio after a deadly Israeli airstrike in Gaza killed six journalists, including prominent Al Jazeera reporter Anas al-Sharif. Lawmakers called the strike part of Israelâs âsystematic targeting of journalists,â accusing the Israeli government of silencing media voices exposing Gazaâs devastation. In their letter, the senators urged Rubio to press Israel for transparency, citing violations of international law and warning of risks to U.S. credibility and national security. Israel has claimed al-Sharif was tied to Hamas, but has offered no compelling evidence. The senators argue that targeting journalists is unacceptable and have demanded greater media access inside Gaza. The call underscores rising political pressure in Washington over Israelâs conduct in the war and its treatment of reporters covering one of the worldâs most dangerous conflict zones.

Israelâs Defense Minister Israel Katz has approved Operation Gideonâs Chariots II, a major IDF plan to capture Gaza City. Backed by Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir, the operation will call up 60,000 reservists to reinforce troops already deployed. Civilians will be evacuated south before the offensive, aimed at isolating Hamas. Families of hostages expressed concern over risks, while Egyptâs ceasefire proposal was rejected for excluding all hostages. Katz declared Israel is at a decisive stage and vowed no hostage will be left behind.

Gaza Aid Attacks have turned humanitarian lifelines into death traps. Despite Israelâs July 27 pledge of daily military pauses, relentless strikes on aid routes have left over 1,373 Palestinians dead since May 27 â many killed while simply searching for food. In Zikim, Khan Younis, Middle Gaza, Rafah, and Deir el-Balah, grieving families recount horror: children killed, homes destroyed, and flour stained with blood. As food convoys are bombed and chaos engulfs distribution, Gazaâs humanitarian crisis deepens. The Gaza Aid Attacks are now symbolic of the deadly collapse of international protection in war zones.

In a bold humanitarian gesture, the United Arab Emirates has dispatched its largest-ever aid vessel to Gaza, carrying a massive 7,000 tonnes of essential food, medical, and shelter supplies. This mission, named Chivalrous Knight 3, marks a significant escalation in the UAEâs relief efforts amid Gazaâs worsening humanitarian crisis.
The ship set sail toward Egyptâs El Arish Port and will route supplies through the Rafah crossing into Gaza. Emirati officials described the mission as a "gift to our people in Gaza," reinforcing their continued commitment to Palestinian civilians. The aid comes amid global scrutiny over the blockade and suffering in Gaza, and highlights growing regional involvement in humanitarian diplomacy. This massive maritime effort signals both urgency and scaleâproviding life-saving materials to a population in dire need.

Leaked CCTV footage from Rafah reveals Israeli soldiers allegedly filming themselves as they destroy an entire residential block in southern Gaza. Once home to nearly 200,000 Palestinians, the area has now been turned to rubble, as families are either killed, displaced, or starving under siege.
This disturbing visual raises urgent questions: Is this documentation or display? Defense or destruction?
As Gaza reels from bombings, starvation, and mass displacement, critics â including Israeli opposition leaders â warn that whatâs unfolding could amount to war crimes.
