An Israeli airstrike in southern Gaza killed at least five people, including two children aged six and ten, and wounded others, local health officials said today, as the UN warned of a “profound failure” to protect civilians amid a surge in deadly strikes. The attack struck Khan Yunis and Gaza City, according to Al Jazeera , which cited Gaza’s civil defence as reporting the casualties. The strikes occurred despite a fragile ceasefire agreed in October 2023, which both Israel and Hamas have accused each other of violating.

The latest violence follows a series of deadly incidents in recent days. On Wednesday, an Israeli strike in Gaza City killed Mohamed al-Wahidi, 57, a senior aid official who had organised public screenings of the Egypt-Argentina World Cup match in Gaza, according to Hungarian outlet 444.hu . Two children, an eight- and ten-year-old, were also killed in the same strike, while a third adult died nearby. The Israeli military confirmed the attack but said it had targeted a Hamas militant, not al-Wahidi, who was reportedly in a taxi en route to a screening when the missile struck.

Save the Children reported that four Palestinian children have been killed by Israeli forces in the past six days, including a ten-year-old in a tent strike today. The organisation said medics in Gaza reported four fatalities in the latest airstrike, while a child was killed fetching water on Friday. In the West Bank, a 16-year-old boy was shot dead during an Israeli military raid in Qalandia refugee camp, and a four-month-old baby died after a one-hour delay at an Israeli checkpoint prevented urgent medical care. Save the Children’s Regional Director for the Middle East, Ahmad Alhendawi, condemned the deaths as “cold blood” and accused Israeli forces of “total impunity.”

The UN Commission of Inquiry concluded two weeks ago that Israeli authorities and security forces have deliberately targeted Palestinian children, with at least 11 child fatalities since that report’s publication. Alhendawi said the world’s inaction sends “the message that Palestinians are exempt” from the rules of war.

Meanwhile, Hamas, the Islamist group that has controlled Gaza for nearly two decades, announced on 6 July that it would dissolve its governing structures in the territory, opening the way for a technocratic administration led by the National Committee for Gaza Administration. The move follows Hamas’s stated willingness, after the 7 October 2023 attacks in Israel, to cede power to another Palestinian leadership.

Former US envoy Rahm Emanuel, now a prominent Democratic voice, delivered a scathing speech in Israel today, warning that the country has become a “territorial pariah” and urging accountability for its actions. His remarks come as Jewish Democrats eyeing 2028 presidential bids confront growing hostility within their party toward Israel’s conduct in Gaza.

In a separate development, UK police arrested activists at an Israeli-owned drone engine plant in protest against the company’s role in the conflict. The demonstration underscores the expanding international campaign targeting Israeli military-linked industries.

Hamas e gata să cedeze puterea în Gaza. Rămâne de văzut cui Un anunț fără precedent care ar putea schimba viitorul palestinienilor din Fâșia Gaza. Hamas, mișcarea islamistă palestiniană aflată la putere în enclavă de aproape 20 de ani, a anunțat luni, 6 iulie, că și-a dizolvat structurile de conducere din teritoriu. După atacul terorist din 7 octombrie 2023 din Israel, mișcarea care conduce Fâșia Gaza își exprimase deja disponibilitatea de a ceda locul unei alte conduceri palestiniene. Decizia deschide calea unei administrări tehnocrate a teritoriului de către Comitetul Național pentru Administrarea Gazei, scrie Liberation.
