Israel has continued to carry out airstrikes in Lebanon despite a fragile ceasefire, targeting alleged Hezbollah military targets. However, most of the victims have been civilians.
In Gaza, at least 15,000 children have been killed since October 7 attacks in 2023, according to Save the Children. The international community is urging parties to provide protection for children, while governments are being pressured to take action.
The US Congress has passed laws allowing 900kg bombs to be sent to Israel, raising concerns about its actions in Gaza. Journalists and activists are speaking out against US support for Israel’s war on Gaza, saying it undermines democratic principles.
Israel is also targeting rescue teams and humanitarian workers in Gaza, making it difficult for them to do their work. Former UN Under-Secretary-General Martin Griffiths has criticized the lack of action from world powers, saying it amounts to “appallingly little outrage” that hasn’t led to concrete change.
Meanwhile, Israel’s construction of corridors in Gaza aims to separate Palestinian population centers and make Palestinians feel like they have no choice but to leave. The new Morag Corridor follows an old route constructed by the Israeli military in the 1970s.
Recent attacks in Lebanon have also left at least two people dead, according to the Health Ministry. The latest attack comes after Israel targeted Beirut for the first time since a fragile truce was announced in November.
As the situation continues to unfold, concerns about the humanitarian impact of these actions are growing. With the international community calling for action and journalists speaking out against US support for Israel’s war on Gaza, it remains to be seen what concrete steps will be taken to address these ongoing conflicts.
