With bakeries and kitchens shuttered, residents in northern Gaza face severe food shortages, exacerbating the region's humanitarian crisis. The collapse of critical infrastructure, coupled with a lack of aid, threatens to push Gaza toward an imminent catastrophic famine

On a quiet Thursday afternoon late last month, 59-year-old Hanan Abu Salameh ventured out to her family’s olive grove near Faqqua, a village in the northern West Bank. It was a ritual she had performed for decades

This marked one of the deadliest days for Israeli civilians in recent months. Rockets struck areas near Metula, a town close to the Israel-Lebanon border, and the outskirts of Haifa, causing devastation in regions with active agricultural work

The attacks, which occurred just before midnight, hit the southern suburbs of Beirut, a known Hezbollah stronghold. A Hezbollah-affiliated source confirmed that three separate strikes were launched by the Israeli military, marking the third attack on the area in less than 24 hours

In an official statement from the Egyptian Foreign Ministry, Abdelaty warned that Israel's actions could inflame tensions across the region, potentially leading to “dire security and humanitarian consequences”

The targeted strike is part of a series of retaliatory actions by Israel as the conflict between Israel and Hamas continues to escalate, particularly following the deadly October 7, 2023 attack launched by Hamas on Israeli territory

The strike, which took place on Friday evening, is being hailed as one of Israel’s most audacious military operations in recent years. Israeli defense officials revealed that they had tracked Nasrallah’s whereabouts for months, waiting for the opportune moment to act

The situation has prompted major airlines in the region to prioritize passenger safety and adapt their operations accordingly. Dubai’s Emirates Airlines confirmed on Thursday that all flights to Beirut have been cancelled until October 1

The attack comes in the wake of a recent, fatal incident in the same region. In February 2024, a terror attack in Eli resulted in the deaths of two Israelis. The three perpetrators of that attack were subsequently killed by Israeli forces

The first ceasefire is scheduled to occur in the central region, with a cessation of hostilities from 6:00 am to 3:00 pm. Following this, similar pauses will be implemented in the southern and northern regions, maintaining the same time frame each day
