The dire shortage of food and essential supplies has led to intense international pressure, prompting the US to airdrop meals and approve a floating pier for aid delivery. Gazans express desperation, with one woman calling the aid a fraud and urging the international community to stop it, while others highlight the lack of basic necessities and the impact on daily life.

"Israeli Think Tank Advocates Ethnic Cleansing in Gaza, While Palestinian Doctor Urges Immediate Ceasefire"

An Israeli think tank with ties to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has published a position paper advocating for the complete ethnic cleansing of Gaza, exploiting the recent Hamas attack as a pretext. The Misgav Institute for National Security & Zionist Strategy argues for the relocation and settlement of the entire Gaza population, suggesting that Egypt has available housing units to accommodate them. The report's release coincides with a surge in calls for flattening Gaza among the Israeli leadership and population. Meanwhile, ethnic cleansing is also being carried out in the West Bank by Israeli settlers and soldiers, with hundreds of Palestinians forcibly displaced and a rising death toll.
