Smoke rose across Gaza as Israel continued its offensive against Hamas on Friday. That's despite a ruling from the International Court of Justice (ICJ) that Israel's military offensive in Rafah must stop immediately. The top United Nations (UN) court also ruled the Rafah border crossing must be reopened for aid deliveries but judges stopped short of ordering a full ceasefire throughout the Palestinian enclave. Israel seized the key crossing with Egypt in early May when it launched what US officials called a "limited" operation aimed at choking off Hamas supply lines. The new provisional measur...

British directors Ken Loach and Mike Leigh have pulled out as patrons of London’s Phoenix Cinema in protest of the venue hosting the Israeli international Seret film festival, The Guardian reported on Thursday. “My resignation as a patron of the Phoenix shows what I think of their decision. It is simply unacceptable,” Loach told The Guardian after resigning. As part of the festival, the north London cinema hosted a special screening of “Supernova: The Music Festival Massacre” about the Hamas-led terrorist attack at the Nova music festival on 7 October. Pro-Palestine solidarity groups, as well ...

A six-day-old US pier project in Gaza is starting to get more aid to Palestinians in need but conditions are challenging, US officials said on Thursday. That reflects the larger problems bringing food and other supplies to starving people in the besieged territory. The floating pier had a troubled launch, with crowds overrunning some of the first trucks coming from the new US-led sea route and taking its contents over the weekend. One man in the crowd was shot dead in still-unexplained circumstances. It led to a two-day suspension of aid distribution. The US military worked with the UN and Isr...

Israeli officials seized a camera and broadcasting equipment belonging to The Associated Press in southern Israel on Tuesday. Officials accused the news organisation of violating the country’s new ban on Al Jazeera. The Qatari satellite channel is among thousands of clients that receive live video feeds from the AP and other news organisations. The AP denounced the move. “The Associated Press decries in the strongest terms the actions of the Israeli government to shut down our longstanding live feed showing a view into Gaza and seize AP equipment,” said Lauren Easton, vice president of corpora...

Israel's prime minister has reacted angrily to an announcement that the ICC is seeking an arrest warrant against him. The International Criminal Court's (ICC) chief prosecutor, Karim Khan, said there were reasonable grounds to believe that Benjamin Netanyahu and Israeli defence minister Yoav Gallant were responsible for alleged war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza. "This is exactly what the new antisemitism looks like, it has moved from the campuses in the West to the court in The Hague. What a shame," Israel's leader said in a television address. The ICC is also looking into issuing...

The Chief Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court said he is seeking arrest warrants for Israeli and Hamas leaders, including Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Karim Khan said that Netanyahu, Israel's Defence Minister Yoav Gallant and three other Hamas leaders — Yehya Sinwar, Mohammed Deif and Ismail Haniyeh — were responsible for war crimes and crimes against humanity. Amongst other alleged crimes, a statement issued by the ICC accused Netanyahu and Gallant of using starvation of civilians as a method of warfare and "intentionally directing attacks against a civilian populatio...

Pope Francis was in Verona to chair the 'Arena of Peace' event held in the ancient Roman amphitheatre. Thousands of people converged on the medieval city to see the pontiff who first met with the city's deacons, priests, and consecrated men and women. As they gathered in what the Pope described as one of Italy’s most beautiful Romanesque Basilicas, the Basilica of Saint Zeno, Francis said that the architecture reminded him of a boat, and that together they were part of the boat of the Lord ''navigating the seas of history to spread the joy of the Gospel''. He urged ordinary people to take the ...

Local media reported that Israeli military tanks entered Jabalia refugee camp overnight after the IDF warned that 100,000-150,000 Palestinian civilians would need to "evacuate". The Jabalia refugee camp is densely populated, and local media reported military tanks were surrounding evacuation centres and residential buildings. Mustafa Barghouti, who is the head of the Palestinian National Initiative party, posted a video claiming to show Israel's bombardment of the camp. The video cannot be independently verified. Gaza civil defence has said its teams are unable to access the camp since Israel ...

The protesters continue to demand that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu should resign - but not before he has signed up to a deal with Hamas to secure the release of the hostages. There are believed to be about 132 hostages in Gaza - but it's not clear whether some may have died in the midst of the war. Earlier this week, Hamas said it had accepted a Qatari-Egyptian cease-fire deal that would end the war and bring about the phased release of some of the Israeli hostages held in Gaza. Israel swiftly rejected the deal, saying it did not meet “core demands,” and hours later sent tanks to capture...

Smoke has been seen from southern Israel rising over Gaza's skyline as heavy fighting continues in the north of the Strip. A senior spokesperson for the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) said that the air force was carrying out airstrikes in the north of Gaza. But fighting also continues in Gaza’s southernmost city, Rafah, where Israel launched a 'limited' operation last week, seizing the border crossing with Egypt in a bid to choke off Hamas supply lines. "Since the start of our precise operation against Hamas in Rafah we have eliminated dozens of terrorists, exposed underground terror tunnels and...
