Israeli strike kills Palestinian Red Crescent staff member, injures 3 others
In a brief statement, the Red Crescent confirmed that the first floor of its building was directly targeted, leading to the killing of one employee, injuries to three others, and a fire breaking out in the targeted area.
The ongoing Israeli aggression on Gaza since October 2023 has so far resulted in at least 60,430 documented Palestinian fatalities, with over 148,722 others injured.
Thousands of victims are feared trapped under rubble, inaccessible to emergency and civil defense teams due to Israeli attacks.
Israel's genocidal attacks continue unabated despite calls from the UN Security Council for an immediate ceasefire and directives from the International Court of Justice urging measures to prevent genocide and alleviate the dire humanitarian situation in Gaza. WAFA

Three 'Israeli' soldiers injured in military vehicle crash near Gaza border
Hebrew media reported that three 'Israeli' soldiers were injured on Sunday after a military vehicle overturned near the Kerem Shalom crossing in southern Gaza. Separately, more than 600 former 'Israeli' security officials sent a letter to US President Donald Trump, urging him to pressure Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to end the war in Gaza. Among those 600 officials are former top 'Israeli' security officials, ex-Mossad chief Tamir Pardo, ex-Shin Bet chief Ami Ayalon, and former deputy IOF chief Matan Vilnai. In the letter, the officials argued that military objectives have largely been achieved, and that further goals, particularly returning 'Israeli' captives, can only be reached through negotiations. They urged Trump to help end the war and support a regional coalition to stabilize Gaza, led by Egypt, the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and a reformed Palestinian Authority. Meanwhile, Palestinian medical sources reported that 79 people have been killed by 'Israeli' fire since dawn Sunday, including 41 individuals who were attempting to receive humanitarian aid.

20-year-old Palestinian detainee dies in "Israeli" prison
The Palestinian Civil Affairs Authority informed the Commission of Detainees and Ex-Detainees Affairs and the Palestinian Prisoners Club on Sunday of the death of 20-year-old administrative detainee Ahmad Saeed Salah Tazaz'a from Jenin in 'Israel's' Megiddo prison. He had been held since May 6, 2025. No details were provided about the circumstances of his death. The two organizations said Tazaz'a's name has been added to the growing list of Palestinian detainees who have died amid what they called a systematic campaign by 'Israel's' prison system, through torture, medical neglect, and starvation, especially since the start of the ongoing war in Gaza. They noted that Megiddo prison, where Tazaz'a was held, has seen particularly grave violations, including the spread of scabies, which they described as a tool of slow execution used by the prison administration. Tazaz'a's death brings the number of known detainees who have died since the war began on October 7 to 76, and the total number of Palestinians who have died in "Israeli" custody since 1967 to 313, according to documented data. Many others remain forcibly disappeared, the report said. The Commission and the Prisoners Club warned of a continued and deliberate policy of 'slow killing' inside prisons, stressing that almost every month now sees the death of at least one detainee due to abuse, neglect, or medical mistreatment. They described the death of Tazaz'a as part of a broader campaign of "Israeli" brutality against detainees, and held the occupation fully responsible. They urged international human rights bodies to take concrete action to hold "Israeli" officials accountable for what they described as war crimes, and to end the exceptional impunity granted to "Israel" by the global community.
