2 Infants Die in Gaza Amid Ongoing Siege, Acute Shortages of Baby Formula
By Ahmad El-Assasy Two infants have died in Gaza due to severe malnutrition and the lack of infant formula, as Israel's war and blockade on the Strip continue to devastate civilian life. According to medical sources, these latest deaths raise the number of Palestinians who have died from food and medicine shortages to 244. Meanwhile, two other civilians were killed and several injured when Israeli warplanes bombed a tent sheltering displaced families in Al-Mawasi, west of Khan Younis, southern Gaza. Israeli artillery also struck the Shuja'iyya and Tuffah neighborhoods in eastern Gaza City. At the same time, the Israeli army reportedly carried out large-scale demolitions of homes and buildings in the area, including the use of explosive robots east of Jabalia in northern Gaza. In Bani Suheila, east of Khan Younis, an Israeli drone targeted a group of civilians, resulting in additional casualties. The death toll from Israeli military operations reached 70 Palestinians on Thursday alone, according to Gaza health authorities. Israeli airstrikes continued across various parts of the Strip, with Gaza City and Jabalia Refugee Camp suffering heavy bombardment and aerial fire belts. The shelling also extended to Beach Camp, Shuja'iyya, and Tuffah, while Israeli naval forces launched missiles towards the western areas of Gaza. From dawn Wednesday until Thursday, more than 135 Palestinians were killed in different parts of the besieged territory. Political Developments Amid the escalation, US President Donald Trump and Secretary of State Marco Rubio held a phone conversation with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Minister of Strategic Affairs Ron Dermer. According to reports from Israel Hayom, the talks resulted in an agreement to end the war within two weeks. The reported deal includes the release of Israeli captives held by Hamas, and the relocation of senior Hamas leaders to other countries as part of a broader settlement to ease tensions. In a potentially significant shift, the agreement also includes Israel's willingness to consider a two-state solution, contingent upon internal reforms within the Palestinian Authority. In return, the United States is expected to recognize limited Israeli sovereignty over parts of the occupied West Bank, as part of a wider understanding aimed at expanding the Abraham Accords to include more Arab states. US officials also confirmed on Thursday that negotiations over a prisoner swap have seen 'significant momentum' following Israel's recent strike on Iran, describing the current stage as one of 'notable progress.' read more Gold prices rise, 21 Karat at EGP 3685 NATO's Role in Israeli-Palestinian Conflict US Expresses 'Strong Opposition' to New Turkish Military Operation in Syria Shoukry Meets Director-General of FAO Lavrov: confrontation bet. nuclear powers must be avoided News Iran Summons French Ambassador over Foreign Minister Remarks News Aboul Gheit Condemns Israeli Escalation in West Bank News Greek PM: Athens Plays Key Role in Improving Energy Security in Region News One Person Injured in Explosion at Ukrainian Embassy in Madrid News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Business Fear & Greed Index Plummets to Lowest Level Ever Recorded amid Global Trade War Arts & Culture Zahi Hawass: Claims of Columns Beneath the Pyramid of Khafre Are Lies News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks Videos & Features Video: Trending Lifestyle TikToker Valeria Márquez Shot Dead during Live Stream News Shell Unveils Cost-Cutting, LNG Growth Plan Technology 50-Year Soviet Spacecraft 'Kosmos 482' Crashes into Indian Ocean
