GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip (AP) — A deck of cards and a giant stuffed toy animal could be seen scattered amongst the blood and rubble after an Israeli strike hit a busy café near the port in Gaza City on Monday.
More than 30 people were killed, according to witnesses, hospital and health officials.
The mother of one of the victims — Palestinian journalist Ismail Abu Hatab — mourned over her son's body outside the Shifa Hospital where the dead were taken and the injured were treated.

Huckabee says that US B-2 bombers 'need to visit Yemen' after Houthis missile intercepted

"We thought we were done with missiles coming to Israel, but Houthis just lit one up over us in Israel," the ambassador noted after the first missile attack since the Iran war. US Ambassador Mike Huckabee said that US B-2 bomber planes "need to visit Yemen" after the Houthis launched a missile towards Jerusalem on Tuesday. "We thought we were done with missiles coming to Israel, but Houthis just lit one up over us in Israel," the ambassador wrote on X/Twitter. "Fortunately, Israel's incredible interception system means we go to the shelter & wait until all clear. Maybe those B2 bombers need to visit Yemen!" Huckabee's statement came after the Israel Air Force intercepted a missile from Yemen on Tuesday night. Sirens sounded in Jerusalem and the central area. In a later statement, Defense Minister Israel Katz said that Yemen would pay for the strike. "The law of Yemen is the law of Tehran," he wrote. "After we strike the head of the serpent in Tehran, we will also strike the tail of the serpent in Yemen." The B-2 bombers were used most recently in the US attack on Iran's nuclear facilities, Operation Midnight Hammer. US officials said more than 30 tons of bombs were dropped using the planes. US President Donald Trump called the strikes a 'historic military success,' claiming the facilities were 'completely obliterated.' There are only 20 B-2 bombers in the US Air Force's inventory, so they are usually used sparingly.

Trump Tries to Issue a Pardon—in Israel

President Trump has taken up a new cause: the Benjamin Netanyahu innocence project. 'It is a POLITICAL WITCH HUNT, very similar to the Witch Hunt that I was forced to endure,' he wrote on Truth Social on Saturday, one of three posts against the Israeli Prime Minister's trial, which has dragged on since 2020. 'LET BIBI GO, HE'S GOT A BIG JOB TO DO!' The President isn't the first to wonder, 'How is it possible that the Prime Minister of Israel can be forced to sit in a Courtroom all day long, over NOTHING'? At issue are vague breach-of-trust charges over his alleged receipt, from 2007 to 2016, of gifts of cigars and champagne valued at some $200,000 in total, plus a novel legal theory that construes positive news coverage as an illegal bribe. But the workings of Israel's overactive legal system and domestic politics aren't within a U.S. President's purview. We doubt Mr. Trump is familiar with the details of the Netanyahu case, nor should he be. It isn't America's place to say, as Mr. Trump has, that 'Bibi Netanyahu's trial should be CANCELLED, IMMEDIATELY,' or to threaten, 'We are not going to stand for this' after mentioning U.S. military aid. That aid furthers a strategic purpose, as all the world saw this June in Iran, not a political one. We criticized Joe Biden in 2023 for intervening in Israel's judicial debate. That looked like an effort to topple Mr. Netanyahu, whereas Mr. Trump's is to prop him up. Neither is appropriate for an ally, and neither is in the long-term interest of the U.S.-Israel alliance.
