Netanyahu says Israel must control Gaza’s border with Egypt

GAUZE: Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has vowed to regain control of the Gaza Strip’s border with Egypt, expanding Israel’s mission to neutralize Hamas in a conflict he says he expects to last for months. “The war is at its peak,” Netanyahu told reporters on Saturday. He said the Philadelphia Corridor buffer zone that runs along Gaza’s border with Egypt should be in Israeli hands. “It must be closed,” Netanyahu said. “It is clear that any other arrangement would not ensure the demilitarization we seek.” He did not elaborate, but such a move by Israel would be a de facto

Gaza’s children are starving as war hampers food deliveries

RAFAH: Displaced children in southern Gaza craved chicken, but all their mother had left to feed the family for the day was a box of peas donated by a man who felt sorry for her when he saw her cry. Left homeless by Israel’s military offensive against Hamas, like most of Gaza’s population of 2.3 million, Tahany Nasr was in a camp in Rafah, focused on just one thing: how to find enough food and water for everyone to spend another day. She said her children had lost weight and felt dizzy because they weren’t eating enough. “I begged to

Hamas battles Israeli troops in and around Gaza’s biggest cities

GAUZE: The Palestinian resistance group Hamas fought Israeli invasion forces in and around Gaza’s main cities on Friday, as Israel continued its offensive in a conflict that has killed thousands of Palestinians and left the besieged enclave in ruins. The death toll in Gaza has risen to more than 17,000, mostly women and children, the Palestinian health ministry said, with vast swathes of land reduced to a wasteland of shelled buildings and bullet-scarred. Early Friday, the health ministry reported another 40 dead in raids near Gaza City and “dozens” more in Jabalia and Khan Younis. Palestinian poet Refaat Alareer, one

JERUSALEM/GAZA: Israeli tanks took up positions at the gates of Gaza City’s main hospital on Monday, the primary target in their battle to take control of the northern half of the Gaza Strip, where doctors said patients, including newborns, were dying for lack of fuel.

At least 650 patients were still inside, desperate to be transferred to another medical facility by the Red

GAUZE: Huddled under makeshift canvas shelters in the parking lot, sleeping in corridors or on landings, spending daylight hours in stairwells, hanging laundry from the ceiling – thousands of displaced Gazans fill every space at Al Shifa Hospital. The main hospital in Gaza City has turned into a huge shelter for people whose homes have been bombed or who fear being caught in Israel’s military offensive on the Gaza Strip, which is entering its second month. “We ran from our home because of the heavy airstrikes,” said Umm Haitham Hejela, a woman sheltering with young children in a makeshift tent

US, others exploring options for Gaza’s post-Hamas future: Blinken

WASHINGTON: The United States and other countries are considering “a variety of possible permutations” for the future of the Gaza Strip if Hamas militants are removed from control, US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken said on Tuesday. Blinken told a Senate Appropriations Committee hearing that the status quo of the Palestinian group Hamas in charge of the densely populated enclave could not continue, but Israel did not want to rule Gaza either. Between those two positions were “a variety of potential transfers that we are looking at very carefully now, as are other countries,” Blinken said. What would make more
