ISRAELI MEDIA: Israel’s Channel 12 reported that estimations suggest the head of the United Torah Judaism party may be the first to withdraw from the government coalition if instructed to do so by the Grand Rabbi of the Gur Hasidic group.

The report indicated that this move could lead to a series of withdrawals by other religious parties forming the government coalition, consequently leading to the collapse of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government.

Channel 12, citing sources close to Netanyahu, revealed that he would do everything in his power to avoid this explosion, even if it requires personal persuasion behind closed doors.

However, the channel also quoted sources within the Haredi parties stating that they do not trust Netanyahu’s promises.

Israeli news sites are reporting on three resistance operations that took place in the Gaza Strip yesterday, Monday:

Israeli occupation soldiers today, Monday, stormed the Indonesian Hospital in the town of Beit Lahia, northern Gaza Strip.

Eyewitnesses told the Palestinian News Agency (WAFA) that occupation soldiers stormed the hospital after medical staff and about 55 citizens, including 3 patients, one of whom was a child in intensive care, were forced to evacuate it, in coordination with international organizations, due to the denial of food and water to the hospital for nearly 10 days and fear of it being bombed.

Eyewitnesses added that there are concerns that occupation soldiers will blow up the Indonesian Hospital, just as they blew up the “Noura Al-Kaabi Kidney Disease Hospital” yesterday, Sunday.

PALESTINE CHRONICLE: Philippe Lazzarini, UNRWA Commissioner General, is the latest person to use the distraction of calling for “international media” to be allowed into Gaza “to independently report on the ongoing atrocities including this morning’s heinous crime.”

Western journalists have been demanding this for months. But, the truth is there is not a single Western journalist who could report effectively from inside Gaza in this genocide. We do not have the skills, the contacts, the knowledge of the ground, and the society.
