• On the 92nd day of the Israeli aggression on Gaza, Israeli forces continue their airstrikes on the central and southern parts of the Strip. The Al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of Hamas, inflict new losses on the Israeli army in soldiers and equipment. Meanwhile, Israeli forces persist in daily incursions into towns and cities in the West Bank, resulting in casualties, arrests, and widespread destruction. The Israeli aggression on Gaza has so far led to 22,722 deaths and 58,166 injuries, mostly among children and women, causing extensive damage to infrastructure and an unprecedented humanitarian crisis.

• A Doctors Without Borders doctor warns that over 100 children are being killed daily on average in the Gaza enclave.

• Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant outlines a four-pronged plan for post-war governance in Gaza, suggesting that Hamas would lose control, Israel would maintain military operational freedom without civilian presence, and a U.S.-led international task force would oversee Gaza’s rebuilding. It says local Palestinian bodies would control civil affairs, and there would be roles for Egypt and other moderate Arab states. The plan proposed by Israel does not mention the Palestinian Authority’s role in Gaza’s governance.

• Lebanon’s Hezbollah fires rockets at Israel, prompting Israeli retaliation against a “terrorist cell,” while top U.S. and EU diplomats visit the region to address spillover concerns from the war.
