Gaza hospitals could stop working in 48 hours due to lack of fuel

Hamas welcomed the “important step towards justice”, without mentioning the arrest warrant simultaneously announced by the ICC for the head of the movement’s armed wing. Israel announced this summer that it had killed Mohammed Deif, considered one of the masterminds of October 7th, but Hamas has not confirmed his death.

On September 23, the Israeli army also launched a campaign of massive attacks in Lebanon against pro-Iranian Hezbollah, which had opened a front to support Hamas after October 7.

New bombings rocked the suburbs of Beirut, a stronghold of the Islamic movement, on Friday, following an Israeli call for evacuation.

Five rescue workers affiliated with Hezbollah were also killed in southern Lebanon, where the Israeli army has been carrying out ground raids against Hezbollah fighters since September 30, according to the Lebanese Ministry of Health.

Israel says it wants to keep Hezbollah under control to allow the return of around 60,000 people living in the north of the country who were displaced by exchanges of fire with the Lebanese movement. In Lebanon, tens of thousands of residents were also displaced.
