Let me get this straight Hamas invaded Israel killing babies IDF kill the commander in refugee camp OKAY I get it that logic No I don't More than 9,000 Palestinians dead - Gaza Health Ministry Gaza's Ministry of Health said on Thursday that more than 9,000 Palestinians have been killed since war broke out more than three weeks ago. Dr. Ashraf al-Qidra, a ministry spokesperson, said 9,061 people have been killed in Gaza, including 3,760 under 18. The figure is without precedent in decades of Israeli-Palestinian violence and is around four times the toll from the 2014 Gaza war, which lasted over six weeks. More than 1,400 people have been killed on the Israeli side, the vast majority of civilians killed by Hamas in its bloody 7 October incursion into Israel, also an unprecedented number. Seventeen Israeli soldiers have been killed in Gaza UN criticised for failing to stop 'genocide' in Gaza A senior UN official strongly criticised the UN in a retirement letter for not stopping what he called “a genocide unfolding before our eyes” in Gaza. Craig Mokhiber, a US human rights lawyer, claimed “the current wholesale slaughter of the Palestinian people” is rooted in decades of persecution by Israel “based entirely upon their status as Arabs and coupled with explicit statements of intent by leaders in the Israeli government and military.” Mokhiber left his job heading the New York office of the Office of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights on 31 October. His four-page letter to UN human rights chief Volker Türk makes no mention of Hamas' surprise attack on Israel on 7 October, which killed 1,400 people. www.euronews.com/2023/11/02/genocide-unfolding-in-gaza-claim-biden-calls-for-humanitarian-pause-us-debates-israel-aid |

Good news I not sure about Americans yet look like some foreigners are getting out of Dodge Israel-Hamas war: Hundreds more foreign citizens leave Gaza Germany bans activity by or in support of Hamas and the Samidoun network Gaza's Hamas-run Healthy Ministry says more than 9,000 dead Israel's military says Hamas is holding at least 242 hostages Around 400 foreign passport-holders allowed to leave Gaza through Rafah crossing More foreign nationals are preparing to cross into Egypt from Gaza IDF chief of staff says hospitals will receive fuel if they run out Israel Defense Forces (IDF) chief of staff Herzi Halevi said on Thursday that fuel would be allowed into Gaza for hospitals that run out, but under supervision. "We will watch for when that day arrives. Fuel will be transferred, with monitoring, to the hospitals. We will do everything needed to ensure that it will not reach Hamas infrastructures, that it will not end up serving war aims but the real needs of treating the sick," Halevi said during a televised appearance. Hospitals and aid organizations in the Palestinian territory have been warning of an impending catastrophe in the event of hospitals running out of fuel, needed for power generation. Israel has banned fuel delivieries into Gaza as part of its blockade of the strip. Its military argues that the Islamist Hamas, which rules Gaza, is stockpiling fuel and that deliveries could fall into the hands of the group. The IDF says Hamas — which is designated as a terrorist organization by Israel, Germany, and the US among others — uses fuel to ventilate its tunnel network and also for rockets. Israeli tanks, troops push towards Gaza City — IDF Israel's military on Thursday said its forces were pressing on toward Gaza City and were engaged in fierce fighting with the Islamist Hamas militant group. "IDF fighters continue to advance in the Gaza City area and conduct face-to-face battles with Hamas terrorists and deepen the fighting," military spokesman Daniel Hagari told journalists. "During the night the forces fought against many terrorists who tried to ambush them. At the end of a battle that lasted several hours and included ground fighting and fire support from aircraft and a missile ship, many terrorists were killed," Hagari said. Meanwhile, another Israeli military spokesperson, Brigadier General Itzik Cohen, said, "We are at the gates of Gaza City," according to the Reuters news agency. Israel vowed to defeat Hamas after the militant group launched large-scale terror attacks on southern Israel on October 7. Hamas — designated as a terrorist organization by the US, the EU and other governments — is headquartered in Gaza City, in the north of the Gaza Strip. Israel's military has been warning people to make their way south, as it targets the group's leadership and infrastructure. www.dw.com/en/israel-hamas-war-more-foreign-citizens-leave-gaza/live-67280397 |

It is on LIKE DONKEY KONG IDF troops are going into Gaza right nowww AGAIN Israel-Hamas war: Israeli troops push further into Gaza City Published 15 hours agoPublished 15 hours agolast updated 4 minutes agolast updated 4 minutes ago Israel is at the "height of the battle" in Gaza, according to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Meanwhile, hundreds of foreign nationals are being allowed to leave Gaza through the Rafah crossing. Follow DW for more. Netanyahu says Israeli forces engaged in 'height of the battle' Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Thursday that Israeli forces had "passed the outskirts of Gaza City" and are "advancing." "We're at the height of the battle. We've had impressive successes," Netanyahu said in a brief statement. Since last week, Israel has ramped up a ground offensive in northern Gaza targeting Hamas militants concentrated in Gaza City. Israel Defense Forces (IDF) chief of staff, Herzi Halevi, said in a statement Thursday that Israeli forces are encircling Gaza City from several directions and are "fighting in a built-up, dense, complex area." "We have advanced another significant stage in the war. The forces are in the heart of northern Gaza," he said. Halevi added ground forces were being supported by "fire from the air and sea." Hundreds of thousands of Palestinian civilians remain in the path of the fighting, despite Israel's repeated calls for them to evacuate to southern Gaza, which is also being Israeli troops have passed the outskirts of Gaza City, PM Netanyahu says Germany bans activity by or in support of Hamas and the Samidoun network Gaza's Hamas-run Healthy Ministry says more than 9,000 dead Israel's military says Hamas is holding at least 242 hostages RSF: Gaza could become 'informational black hole' DW spoke with Christopher Resch, press officer at Reporters Without Borders (RSF), about the difficulties of reporting from the Gaza Strip. Entry for journalists into the Gaza Strip used to require Israeli authorization, but since the October 7 terror attacks by the militant group Hamas, "Israeli authorities don't allow journalists to enter the Gaza Strip at all," said Resch. "Hybrid reporting helps ensure respect for international human rights and humanitarian law," while preventing further violations. "It can be essential and lifesaving in times of conflict," he added. "We need independent reporting from inside the strip," said Resch. www.dw.com/en/israel-hamas-war-israeli-troops-push-further-into-gaza-city/live-67280397Around 400 foreign passport-holders allowed to leave Gaza through Rafah crossing |

Here little blog item off CNN international blog Israel's military says it is surrounding Gaza City as its bombardment of the strip continues, with a United Nations aid agency telling CNN that fresh strikes killed people sheltered at schools in refugee camps Thursday. Gaza's hospitals say they are struggling to treat patients as fuel and other critical supplies dwindle. Israel's successive bombings of the densely populated Jabalya refugee camp this week, which it says targeted a Hamas command complex, drew a warning from the UN that the strikes "could amount to war crimes." More foreign nationals have been allowed to leave Gaza after days of intense diplomacy. Meanwhile, US President Joe Biden has supported a humanitarian "pause" in the fighting to allow for the release of hostages held in Gaza. Key UN relief agency says its fuel supplies in Gaza are completely depleted The head of the main United Nations relief agency in Gaza said on Thursday that its fel supplies are “co Thursday,pletely depleted” and that the last remaining public services in Gaza have "compl The lack of fuel means the UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) will not be able to supply hospitals, the water station and bakeries "in the coming days," said Philippe Lazzarini, the agency's commissioner general. The agency may also be unable to move its trucks within the Gaza Strip to provide humanitarian assistance. The UNRWA now needs to look at what other fuel is available in the strip, Lazzarini said in an interview with CNN's Christiane Amanpour. "There was commercial fuel, which was available, and there was also fuel which was brought in by the international community to supply the electric plant," he explained, adding that over the last week the agency has also worked with Israeli officials through deconfliction channels to pick up fuel reserves. edition.cnn.com/middleeast/live-news/israel-hamas-war-gaza-news-11-02-23/index.html |

See nobody want Palensteins around LOL! Egyptian foreign minister slams Israeli intel document proposing relocation of Gazans to Egypt as "ludicrous" Egypt's foreign minister on Thursday told CNN that a leaked Israeli intelligence ministry document that proposed the relocation of millions of Palestinians to the Sinai Peninsula in Egypt was a "ludicrous proposition." "I don’t think we would — anyone would — raise such a ludicrous proposition," Foreign Minister Sameh Shoukry said in an interview with CNN's Christiane Amanpour. "If that was the case, maybe the United States would also contemplate providing the same access to its southern border that might be expected for us in the Sinai." The document — downplayed earlier this week by the office of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu — proposes relocating Gaza’s civilian population to the northern Sinai, arguing such a plan would be best for Israel’s long-term security. Tent cities would be constructed in the area under the plan, with more permanent cities being constructed at a later date. edition.cnn.com/middleeast/live-news/israel-hamas-war-gaza-news-11-02-23/index.html |

SO is that bad thing you be the judge LOL! Europe 'aiding and assisting' Israel's war in Gaza with vital weapons Data shared with Euronews shows multiple European states have supplied key weapons and equipment likely used by Israel's army in its offensive. In a recent four-page letter, ex-UN official Craig Mokhiber criticised the international community for failing to stop a “genocide unfolding before our eyes” in Gaza. The US human rights lawyer accused the US, UK and much of Europe of being “wholly complicit in the horrific assault” on the Palestinian enclave by Israeli forces, which began on 7 October when Hamas killed more than 1,400 people in southern Israel. Israel has retaliated with unrelenting strikes on Gaza and poured in troops and tanks, killing more than 9,000 so far, say Palestinian authorities. www.euronews.com/2023/11/03/europe-aiding-and-assisting-israels-war-in-gaza-with-vital-weapons |

At the same time, he reiterated Israel's "right" to "defend itself" so that Hamas' deadly attack could "never happen again".

See what I mean Hamas bogart the ad UN warns situation in the West Bank 'alarming and urgent' Alongside the blistering Israeli military campaign in Gaza, the UN human rights office warned Friday that the situation in the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, is “alarming and urgent” because of “multi-layered human rights violations of Palestinians” there. Large-scale raids overnight by Israeli forces in the West Bank killed seven Palestinians, Palestinian health officials said, raising the death toll to 144 since 7 October. Spokesperson Liz Throssell said Israeli forces have increasingly used military tactics and weapons in law enforcement operations, and settler violence “which was already at record levels” has escalated. “We have serious concerns that the principles of distinction and proportionality are not being respected by both sides,” Throssell said at a news briefing in Geneva. “We strongly urge Palestinian armed groups to immediately stop launching inherently indiscriminate rockets into Israel.” www.euronews.com/2023/11/03/blinken-urges-israel-to-protect-civilians-regional-spillover-risk-real-us-approves-militar |

OH OH! Baerbock warns Hezbollah against escalation German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock has warned the Lebanon-based Hezbollah group against a large-scale attack on Israel. Baerbock said Lebanon's people wanted to live in peace and did not want further escalation in the region. "That is why it is so incredibly important that all actors work together to prevent a conflagration in the region," Baerbock said. The foreign minister spoke during a visit to the Armenian capital, Yerevan, just as Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah delivered a more than one-hour speech, during which he railed against Israel and the West. Baerbock also called for the implementation of humanitarian pauses to supply the civilian population, an appeal the European Union has also made. "Humanitarian aid is an imperative of humanity. There must be humanitarian pauses and humanitarian corridors," she said. www.dw.com/en/israel-hamas-war-live-updates-friday-november-3/live-67291308 |

If so true least he is honest RIGHT Hezbollah leader says October 7 attacks 100% Palestinian The leader of Hezbollah, Hassan Nasrallah, praised Hamas' October 7 attacks on Israel, but said his movement had not been involved in carrying it out. In a televised address, his first comments since the massacres and Israel's subsequent war against Hamas, Nasrallah claimed that "brothers from Hamas" had planned the attacks alone. Nasrallah said the attacks against Israel had been "100% Palestinian" and that "its owners hid it from everyone." However, Nasrallah added that the secrecy of the operation did not upset anyone in the regional "axis" against Israel. Lebanon-based Hezbollah is backed by Iran and aligned with Hamas, as are Iranian-backed Shi'ite Muslim factions in Iraq and Yemen's Houthi movement. "This battle is completely Palestinian, for Palestinian people, has no relation to any regional issue," said Nasrallah. Nasrallah also thanked Iraqi and Yemeni groups for joining in the conflict with Israel, which Nasrallah said had spread to "more than one front." Hezbollah is an Iran-backed Shiite political party and militant group in Lebanon. Hezbollah is considered a terrorist organization by the US, Germany, and several Sunni Arab countries. The EU lists its armed wing as a terrorist group. www.dw.com/en/israel-hamas-war-live-updates-friday-november-3/live-67291308 |

Of course it Mo money mo money down the drain RIGHT LOL! UN seeks $1.2 billion in aid for Gaza and West Bank The United Nations has launched an emergency aid appeal to raise $1.2 billion (€1.1 billion) in aid for some 2.7 million people in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank. "The cost of meeting the needs of 2.7 million people — that is the entire population of Gaza and 500,000 people in the occupied West Bank — is estimated to be $1.2 billion," the Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) said. OCHA had previously called for $294 million in aid to help 1.3 million people in an appeal on October 12, adding that "the situation has grown increasingly desperate since then." The organization said its new appeal "will outline the need for food, water, health care, shelter, hygiene and other urgent priorities following the massive bombardments in the Gaza Strip. "We urge donors to promptly make resources available for the response," it added. "Our ability to ease the suffering of the Palestinian population will depend on adequate funding; safe and sustained access to all people in need, wherever they are; sufficient flow of humanitarian supplies; and, importantly, fuel." www.dw.com/en/israel-hamas-war-live-updates-friday-november-3/live-67291308 |

More update on CNN blog here Rocket seen hitting courtyard of school in Israeli city overlooking Gaza From CNN's Jeremy Diamond At least two rockets were seen making a direct hit in the Israeli city of Sderot on Friday evening, with one striking the courtyard of a kindergarten. Shrapnel hit the windows of the building as well as several nearby cars. That rocket hit less than 100 meters (about 328 feet) from where some journalists are positioned in the city, overlooking Gaza. There were no reported casualties. Families of 11 Hamas victims file complaint with the International Criminal Court Families of eleven victims of the Hamas attack on October 7 have accused the perpetrators of “crimes against humanity” in a complaint filed to the International Criminal Court (ICC). Relatives of the victims, who were all civilians, have also called on International Criminal Court Chief Prosecutor Karim Khan to investigate Hamas’ actions as “war crimes” that were carried out as part of a “genocidal plan,” according to a press statement shared with CNN by their lawyer Francois Zimeray on Friday. “It was the execution of a genocidal plan assumed by its perpetrators. In the face of denial in real time, the truth must be defended, these atrocities must be known and engraved in the collective memory," the complaint lodged by Zimeray, a lawyer at the Paris Bar and ICC said. The complaint concerns 11 victims who were either killed or injured within Israeli borders. Several had been at the Nova music festival, where Hamas gunmen killed more than 260 people. According to Zimeray's law firm, Zimeray & Finelle, “the material facts cannot… be disputed” as Hamas has “amply documented and broadcast” its actions, which shocked the “universal conscience.” edition.cnn.com/middleeast/live-news/israel-hamas-war-gaza-news-11-03-23/index.html |

Here more about Blinken visit Blinken returns to Israel for meetings with top officials. Here's what you should know today From CNN staff US Secretary of State Antony Blinken returned to Israel on Friday for his third trip to the country since the October 7 Hamas attack, where he met with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and other senior Israeli officials. Standing alongside Israeli President Isaac Herzog in Tel Aviv on Friday, Blinken said the US stood by Israel but called for Gazan civilians to be protected amid intensifying Israeli bombardment. Here are the top headlines right now: Blinken visit: Following Blinken's remarks, Herzog thanked the diplomat for his "moral clarity." The top US diplomat was expected to push for a "pause" in airstrikes on Gaza to "allow for mediation," while visiting Israel on Friday, according to a diplomatic source familiar with the negotiations. However, the timeline for such a pause was unclear. Israeli military update: The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) are advancing in Gaza and destroying Hamas infrastructure, Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari said in a press conference on Friday. Separately, he said that the IDF is on a "very high level of alertness" at the Lebanese border, a day after unusually fierce exchanges of fire in that area. Bombardment of Gaza: Residents of the enclave faced another night of heavy aerial assault, with the skies of northern Gaza illuminated by flares and explosions. A doctor at Gaza City’s Al-Shifa hospital said that low fuel stocks had plunged wards into darkness and cut off major, basic functions like oxygen generation. Meanwhile, Gazan residents who had been working in Israel were seen returning to the besieged territory on Friday through the Kerem Shalom border crossing in southern Israel, a day after an Israel Cabinet decision to expel them. Rafah border crossing: The exodus of foreign nationals from Gaza into Egypt continued Friday, with 99 people making their way through on Friday morning, according to an Egyptian border official. The White House on Thursday confirmed a total of 79 American citizens and family members were among those who had arrived in Egypt so far. Criticism from Ireland's leader: Ireland's leader Leo Varadkar criticized Israel's actions in Gaza, describing them Friday as resembling "something approaching revenge," accordi edition.cnn.com/middleeast/live-news/israel-hamas-war-gaza-news-11-03-23/index.html |

Now dude call for Ceasefire yeah to rearm LOL! Hezbollah's leader calls for ceasefire in Gaza From CNN’s Tamara Qiblawi and Lauren Kent Hezbollah's leader, Hassan Nasrallah, called in a speech Friday for people to "work day and night" to achieve a ceasefire in Gaza, saying it is Hezbollah's "primary goal." Nasrallah said the powerful Iran-backed Lebanese paramilitary group's secondary goal is for Hamas to emerge "victorious" in Gaza. He also described the war as a "turning point." "The victory of Gaza means a victory for Palestine, for Jerusalem, for Aqsa and the Holy Sepulcher and all the neighboring countries," Nasrallah said. Warning of a new front: Nasrallah went on to say Hezbollah has been in an "unprecedented battle" with Israel on the Israel-Lebanon border since October 8, adding that "the possibility of the Lebanese front escalating into broad battle is a realistic option." "Israel should take this into account," he said in his speech. Nasrallah described Hezbollah's operations at the Lebanese border as a "deterrent" to Israel and said "all scenarios" are possible in the region, warning Israel against escalating its military activity there. The Hezbollah leader said any such escalation would be "a historic folly" by Israel.

BUT Bibi is not having it Netanyahu says Israel opposes temporary ceasefire unless all hostages are freed Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Friday that his government opposed any temporary ceasefire in Gaza unless Hamas freed all the hostages it holds. He also said that it would continue to block fuel from entering Gaza. “Israel is objecting a temporary ceasefire which does not include freeing all our hostages,” Netanyahu said during televised remarks on Friday. “Israel does not allow fuel into the Gaza Strip and is objecting to funds being transferred into Gaza strip.” US Secretary of State Antony Blinken in Tel Aviv on Friday said the US believes efforts to get humanitarian assistance in and hostages out “would be facilitated by humanitarian pauses.” Blinken also said during the news conference that the US and Israel have "identified mechanisms" to get much-needed fuel to Gaza's hospitals. The Israeli military on Friday said 241 hostages are believed to have been taken by Hamas on October 7. edition.cnn.com/middleeast/live-news/israel-hamas-war-gaza-news-11-03-23/index.html |

WHOA! Videos show dozens of casualties after incident near Gaza hospital, as cause remains unclear There are dozens of casualties after an incident near Gaza’s Al-Shifa Hospital, according to multiple videos from the scene and the Hamas-run Palestinian Ministry of Health in Gaza. The cause is not immediately clear. Multiple videos from the scene show at least a dozen bloodied casualties strewn across the ground near an ambulance. There appears to be some shrapnel damage to at least one of the cars on the scene. CNN has geolocated the videos to the edge of a compound that includes the hospital. There is so far no video evidence of any crater from a munition. CNN has inquired about the incident with the Israel Defense Forces. A spokesperson for the Palestinian Ministry of Health in Gaza, who was at the hospital, said that Israel was responsible for the attack. edition.cnn.com/middleeast/live-news/israel-hamas-war-gaza-news-11-03-23/index.html |

Boy Turkey is not messing around Israel-Hamas war: Erdogan cuts ties with Netanyahu as Israeli leader rebuffs Gaza humanitarian pause The latest developments from the Israel Hamas war. Blinken reaffirms US support for ‘humanitarian pause’ in Gaza Antony Blinken has reiterated that the United States supports “humanitarian pauses” in the conflict between Israel and Hamas. “The United States believes that all of these efforts will be made easier by these humanitarian pauses,” Blinken said at a news conference in Amman of efforts to spare Palestinian civilians and speed up the delivery of aid to the Gaza Strip. His comments came as the US Secretary of State tries to build support among Arab nations countries for planning a postwar future for Gaza Turkey announces recall of its ambassador to Israel Turkey has announced the recall of its ambassador to Israel for consultations, due to Israel's refusal to accept a ceasefire in Gaza. Ambassador Sakir Ozkan Torunlar was recalled in view of "the ongoing humanitarian tragedy in Gaza caused by Israel's continued attacks on civilians and Israel's refusal (to accept) a ceasefire," the Turkish Foreign Ministry said. Turkey: for Erdogan, Netanyahu is 'no longer someone we can talk to' Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said on Saturday that he was cutting off all contact with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu due to Israel's actions in the Gaza Strip. "Netanyahu is no longer someone we can talk to. We have given up on him," said Erdogan, according to comments reported by Turkish media. On 25 October, the Turkish president, who met Benjamin Netanyahu most recently in September in New York, announced that he was abandoning all his plans to travel to Israel, claiming to have been "abused" by the Israeli Prime Minister. “You will not find any other state whose army behaves with www.euronews.com/2023/11/04/israel-hamas-war-netanyahu-rebuffs-pushes-for-gaza-humanitarian-pause-until-hostages-are-r |

Of course Hezollah leader is at againnnnn Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah said Friday that his powerful militia is already engaged in unprecedented fighting along the Lebanon-Israel border. The Islamic cleric then threatened to further escalate Israel's war with Hamas as it nears the one-month mark. But in televised remarks - his first since the Palestinian militants’ deadly 7 October incursion into southern Israel - Nasrallah stopped short of announcing that Hezbollah would fully enter the war, a move that would have devastating consequences for both Lebanon and Israel. The United States, Israel's strongest backer, has warned Hezbollah and its patron Iran against entering the fray and has sent warships to the Mediterranean, a move Nasrallah said "will not scare us.” www.euronews.com/2023/11/03/hezbollahs-leader-threatens-to-escalate-fighting-with-israel#:~:text=Hezbollah%27s%20leader%20threatens%20to%20escalate%20fighting%20with%20Israel |

Wow that alot of Pro Palesntein protesters in Germany? Some 3,000 people in the western German city of Essen on Friday took part in a pro-Palestinian demonstration protesting against the ongoing Israeli military operation in the Gaza Strip. The pro-Palestinian demonstration had been planned in advance and was escorted by heavy police presence. It comes as tensions in Germany have been high, with several cities and municipalities banning anti-Israel protests and pro-Palestinian protests. What happened during the protest? Friday's rally in Essen was the largest of its kind in the industrial city since the war between Israel and Hamas, the militant-Islamist group that controls Gaza, began. www.dw.com/en/germany-3000-pro-palestinian-protesters-gather-in-essen/a-67302193 |

OH OH smackdown in Lebanon Skirmishes continue on Israeli border with Lebanon Skirmishes on Israel's northern border with Lebanon continued on Saturday, with both the Israeli military and the militant group Hezbollah saying they have struck targets on the other side. Hezbollah said it carried out simultaneous attacks on Israeli positions at the Lebanese border. The Israeli military said its warplanes struck Hezbollah targets in response. Israeli fighter jets attacked "terrorist infrastructure, rocket warehouses and compounds" used by Hezbollah, the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) said. Erdogan says Turkey using 'all diplomatic options' in Gaza crisis Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said Turkey was using "all diplomatic options" to "stop the bloodshed" in the Gaza Strip, including talks with Israeli intelligence and the Foreign Ministry. He said Turkey is also in contact with Hamas and Palestinian authorities. Erdogan was sharply critical of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. "Netanyahu is no longer an interlocutor for us in any sense. We have erased him, we have crossed him out," Erdogan said in remarks carried by his press office. Erdogan, however, denied that would lead Turkey to sever diplomatic ties completely with Israel. Later on Saturday, however, Turkey recalled its ambassador to Israel for consultations. The Turkish president also criticized Western countries for their support of Israel. He said Ankara's trust in the European Union was "deeply shaken." He said Turkey's aim was to see peace in Gaza as "part of an independent Palestinian state, in line with 1967 borders, with territorial integrity, and with east Jerusalem as its capital." "We will support formulas that will bring peace and calm to the region," Erdogan said. "We will not be supportive of plans that will further darken the lives of Palestinians, that will gradually erase them from the scene of history." Nearly 9,500 killed so far in Gaza, Hamas health authorities say Israeli military airstrikes and ground operations in the besieged Gaza Strip since the Hamas terror attacks on southern Israel on October 7 have killed 9,488 people, the Hamas-run health ministry in Gaza said on Saturday. Those killed included 3,900 children and 2,509 women, the Gaza health ministry spokesman announced in a press conference marking 29 days of attacks on the strip. He said women, children and the elderly made up 70% of the victims. The health ministry said it received reports of 2,000 missing individuals, including "1,250 children still under the rubble," the health ministry spokesman said. Some 24,158 people have been injured, the spokesman added. Hamas authorities accused Israeli forces of "purposefully" targeting 105 health facilities, rendering 16 hospitals and 32 primary care centers out of service. Such attacks killed 150 health workers and destroyed 27 ambulances, the spokesman said. www.dw.com/en/israel-hamas-war-live-updates-saturday-november-4/live-67302992 |

This is really tick off Biden adminsation you know that RIGHT? No new fuel has entered Gaza since start of war, US envoy says No new fuel has entered Gaza since the beginning of the Israel-Hamas war in early October, US Special Envoy for Middle East Humanitarian Issues David Satterfield said Saturday. “Fuel, which existed in depots accessible to UNRWA (United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East), that existed in Gaza prior to October 7, has been accessed by UNRWA for purposes of trucks, delivery of assistance that is from Rafah terminal to distribution points, for desalinization plant operation, and for delivery to hospitals in the South. That has been going on for pretty much the last week,” Satterfield said. The US expects that additional fuel will be brought in once that fuel runs out, and there is an agreed mechanism in place for that, the envoy said. This fuel would only be going to south Gaza, he noted. Israel has accused Hamas of hoarding and diverting fuel, and US Secretary of State Antony Blinken said Friday that “Israel has raised appropriate concerns, concerns that we share, about Hamas’s hoarding and syphoning of fuel in northern Gaza.” “Again, its cynicism knows no bounds, denying fuel itself that it has to hospitals and other places that desperately need it. In meetings with regional partners, I’ll continue conversations about getting assistance to flow, including edition.cnn.com/middleeast/live-news/israel-hamas-war-gaza-news-11-04-23/index.html |

OH HOney child I knew that it was on my DW news article I post here earlier US official: Hamas is blocking foreigners from leaving Gaza until Israel allows ambulances to reach border Hamas is blocking foreign nationals from departing Gaza until Israel guarantees that ambulances from the Palestinian enclave can reach the Rafah crossing to Egypt, a US official familiar with situation told CNN Saturday. The demand comes after Israel admitted on Friday that it attacked an ambulance outside Gaza City’s Al-Shifa Hospital, the largest medical facility in the enclave. The vehicle had been in a convoy headed for Rafah, which is the only remaining option for getting in and out of Gaza during Israel's siege of the territory. edition.cnn.com/middleeast/live-news/israel-hamas-war-gaza-news-11-04-23/index.html |
