Gaza’s Health Ministry said Wednesday that 42 more Palestinians were killed by Israel’s assault on the besieged territory in the previous 24-hour period, and another 107 were wounded.
The new casualties bring the total recorded death toll to 40,861 and the number of wounded to 94,398. The Health Ministry’s numbers do not include Palestinians who are missing and presumed dead under the rubble, which has previously been estimated to be about 10,000 people.
It’s also unclear how many people have died in Gaza due to indirect causes. A letter written by a group of experts recently published in the British medical journal The Lancet estimated the total number of deaths in Gaza, including those killed by the Israeli military and indirect causes, could reach 186,000. They reached the numbers by using the death toll from the end of June, which was 37,396.
Israeli strikes were reported in Gaza on Wednesday across the territory, including in the southern city of Khan Younis, the central Nuseirat camp, and in northern areas, including Gaza City.
There’s no end to the violence in sight as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu continues to demand indefinite control of the Philadelphi Corridor, which is part of his efforts to sabotage the chances of a hostage and ceasefire deal. The US claims it is pushing for a ceasefire but continues to ship weapons to Israel, support that is crucial for Israel to sustain the genocidal war on Gaza.
The Israelis will employ any excuse for mass murder.
It strikes me, as something, of an irony, that, those, who are chosen, seem entirely lost, indeed…
They're only chosen to commit massacre…!
Shame.. some Israeli's are realy nice. Too bad the IDF exists
And some aren't so nice. Don't know if you read this:
A clip from an English-language Israeli podcast showing hosts Naor Meningher and Eytan Weinstein discussing the idea of eradicating all Palestinians in the occupied West Bank and Gaza has gone viral online.
In an episode of Two Nice Jewish Boys, which aired three weeks ago, host Weinstein said: “If you gave me a button to just erase Gaza, every single living being in Gaza would no longer be living tomorrow. I would press it in a second.”
He claimed that “most Israelis” would do the same.
“The baby that’s born in Gaza is technically innocent, I could give zero fucks, I don’t care if he gets polio,” Weinstein said.

Just like Hamas.
If I was violently displaced from my home, hadmost of my family massacred, my remaining family starved and subjected to various war crimes, I'd do everything in my power to fight those responsible. Is that "anti-semitic" Jake?
No, not just like Hamas. The Israeli terrorists are in a league of their own, they have no peers.
And they've been at it since the 1970's
Did Hamas routinely practice lethal rectal torture on its prisoners?
”Ruble”, is an adequate description, indeed…
Ecvery day we read about ANOTHER Israeli "operation" in Gaza that kills scores if not hundreds of innocent people! Those in the US government who are nothing more than Israeli water boys hopefully will be indicted in the future for war crimes against not only the Palestinians, but any other nation by Israel that has been attacked! All the talk and actions that we Americans see in this present election mean nothing because when all is said and done, Israel will STILL compromise US "leaders" for THEIR benefit and to the detriment of the tax-paying American public!
I think the biggest psyop in this whole thing is that the American regime is not willingly directing the genocide. It's incredible that critics here in the U.S. cannot bear the thought, so e.g. fall for Kamala's low grade BS that she would stop it.
Last 4 days:
Israel Kills 47 More Palestinians in Gaza
Israel Kills Another 48 Palestinians in Gaza
Israeli Forces Kill Another 33 Palestinians in the Gaza Strip
Israeli Forces Kill 42 More Palestinians in the Gaza Strip
Remember how much "sorrow and outrage" Biden/Harris felt when those six Israeli hostages were found dead?
And the West Bank.
Viz. Katrina's op-ed on Antiwar today about saving nine Americans, I would put that in this category.
Undeniably so
So much they keep feeding this israeli animal
”Children, live what they learn”, I.e.: Genocide.
They truly learned this from the Germans, in days of old.
I would further say, they are proficient in many ways…
