The Israel-Gaza war continues as Israeli forces withdraw from the occupied West Bank city of Jenin after a 10-day raid that resulted in 21 deaths. The Palestinian foreign ministry accuses Israel of transferring destruction from Gaza to the West Bank. Israeli raids in other West Bank areas have caused more casualties and damage, including attacks on Palestinian villages and refugee camps. The conflict has led to 39 Palestinian deaths and 140 injuries. The medical charity Doctors Without Borders has suspended activities in Jenin and Tulkarem due to Israeli attacks on health workers and facilities. US Secretary of State Antony Blinken calls for a Gaza ceasefire deal, with some critical issues remaining unresolved. The Gaza health ministry reports a high number of Palestinian casualties since the conflict began in October. Amnesty International urges a war crimes probe into Israel’s destruction in Gaza. Meanwhile, tensions within Israel’s coalition government escalate over education funding for ultra-Orthodox schools. The ongoing violence and destruction in the region highlight the urgent need for a peaceful resolution to the conflict.
