Mujahideen Brigades claims to have "destroyed" a group of Israeli soldiers in al-Barasi

The Mujahideen Brigades, the armed wing of the Palestinian Mujahideen Movement, reports that its fighters 'destroyed' a group of Israeli soldiers and their vehicles using 60mm regular mortar shells in the al-Barasi region, located south of the Zeitoun neighbourhood in Gaza City.
The group stated that the assault was completed in collaboration with the al-Nasser Salah al-Din Brigades, which is the military branch of the Popular Resistance Committees, a coalition of armed factions in the Gaza Strip.

Israel kills 22 in Gaza, including 13 shot dead waiting to collect food aid

Gaza's civil defence agency has said that Israeli attacks killed at least 22 people on Saturday. According to the agency, at least 13 of the Palestinians killed were shot by troops as they were waiting to collect food aid near distribution sites in the north and in the south. Civil defence spokesman Mahmud Bassal told AFP that conditions in the Zeitun neighbourhood in Gaza City were rapidly deteriorating, with residents having little to no access to food and water due to heavy Israeli bombardment. He said Israel were carrying out ethnic cleansing there. Bassal said about 50,000 people are estimated to be in the area, "the majority of whom are without food or water" and lacking "the basic necessities of life". Earlier this month, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's security cabinet approved plans to sieze control of Gaza City, one of the most densely populated parts of the territory. Read more:

A Palestinian woman and a child were among three wounded in an Israeli settler attack during a raid in the town of Halhul, north of Hebron, according to Wafa news agency. Settlers from the illegal outpost of Karmei Tzur, established on Palestinian land north of Hebron, attacked Palestinian residents in the Khiran area of Halhul, under the protection of Israeli security forces, the agency reported. 59-year-old Najla Hussein Aql was wounded with a deep wound to her head, while a child and a man from the same family sustained multiple bruises and wounds. The reported casualties were later transferred to the Red Crescent Hospital in Halhul.

Denmark considering sanctions against Israel as EU presidency holder

Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen, whose country currently holds the EU presidency, has said she is considering sanctions and other forms of pressure against Israel over its actions in Gaza and the West Bank. "[Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin] Netanyahu is now a problem in himself," Frederiksen said in an interview with the daily Jyllands-Posten, adding that the Israeli government was going "too far". The centre-right leader condemned the "absolutely appalling and catastrophic" humanitarian situation in Gaza and criticised Israeli plans to proceed with a new settlement project in the occupied West Bank. "We are one of the countries that wants to increase pressure on Israel, but we have not yet obtained the support of EU members," she said. Frederiksen added that she wanted to consider "political pressure, sanctions, whether against settlers, ministers, or even Israel as a whole". "We are not ruling anything out in advance. Just as with Russia, we are designing the sanctions to target where we believe they will have the greatest effect," she said. Denmark is not among the countries that recently announced plans to recognise a Palestinian state.
