Hamas spokesperson Abdel-Latif Al-Qanoua was killed in an Israeli airstrike targeting a tent in Jabalia. Several others were injured in the attack. Meanwhile, separate Israeli strikes in Gaza City left at least six people dead, and another strike in Khan Younis, southern Gaza, claimed one more life. Earlier this week, Israel assassinated Hamas political bureau members Ismail Barhoum and senior leader Salah Al-Barhoum. Both were part of Hamas’ 20-member decision-making body. Since March 18, intensified Israeli airstrikes in Gaza have killed 830 Palestinians and left around 1,800 injured.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has threatened to seize portions of Gaza, stating that if Hamas continues to refuse the release of hostages, Israel will intensify military operations, which may include territorial occupation. Currently, 59 hostages remain in Gaza, of whom Israel believes 25 are still alive.

David Roet, the Israeli Ambassador to Austria, suggested executing Palestinian children in Gaza for allegedly carrying weapons such as guns or grenades.

According to UNICEF, since the beginning of the genocide in October 2023, Israeli forces have killed over 14,500 children in Gaza, with the death toll now rising to 15,613.

On Tuesday, Israeli shelling killed four people in Syria.

Several top Hamas officials were also killed in the bombings. In the latest attack, an Al Jazeera journalist lost his life due to Israeli strikes.

Egypt has proposed a new ceasefire plan aimed at restoring peace in Gaza. The United States and Hamas have both agreed to the proposal, but Israel has yet to provide an official response.

According to the proposed deal, Hamas will release five Israeli hostages each week, and after the first week, Israel will proceed with the second phase of the ceasefire. The Egyptian plan outlines a timeline under which all hostages will be freed in exchange for a complete withdrawal of Israeli forces from Gaza. Egypt has also stated that the U.S. will act as a guarantor to ensure the plan’s implementation.
