Israeli tanks push deeper into western Rafah in south Gaza, firing shells at displaced people’s tents, with one armoured vehicle blown up by a Hamas-planted improvised explosive device.
The Palestinian presidency and the Palestinian Liberation Organization (PLO) have welcomed Armenia’s decision to recognise the State of Palestine.
According to a statement reported by the official Palestinian news agency, Wafa, “the Palestinian Presidency has commended the Republic of Armenia’s decision to officially recognize the State of Palestine as an independent and sovereign nation.”
The presidency expressed deep appreciation for “this courageous and significant decision”, viewing it as a “pivotal step towards enhancing bilateral relations and fostering peace and stability in the region”.
Hussein al-Sheikh, secretary of the PLO Executive Committee, praised Armenia’s recognition, saying it is “a victory for truth, justice, legitimacy and the struggle of our Palestinian people for liberation and independence”.
The intensity of shelling has increased in the past few days in northern Gaza and Gaza City as Israeli forces target residential houses and blocks.
Eight people were killed, including five municipality workers, while doing their duties in the headquarters of the municipality of Gaza City.
Seven, including three children and one woman, were killed in an Israeli strike that hit the Zeitoun neighbourhood.
Dozens of others have been killed and wounded by shelling and artillery fire all over Gaza City.
The situation in northern Gaza is dire. Israeli forces are preventing any humanitarian aid from reaching northern Gaza.
There are no vegetables or food for civilians. If there is any humanitarian aid that enters, it will not meet the extensive need of the population here. This scarcity of products here justify why Kamal Radwan Hospital is full of malnutrition cases. The scarcity of water, food products, vegetables is just because Israeli forces keep imposing and tightening the siege.
Recognising Palestinian state a matter of justice: Turkey’s Foreign Ministry
Turkey is “pleased” with Armenia’s decision to recognise a Palestinian state, its Foreign Ministry says on its X account.
“As we have emphasised before, recognising a Palestinian state is a matter of international law, justice and conscience,” the post said, adding that Turkey “will continue to strive for more countries to recognise Palestine”.
Armenia has joined several other countries in recognising Palestine as a state in recent weeks, including Spain and Ireland. avc avc avc avc avc avc avc avc avc avc avc avc avc avc avc avc avc avc avc avc avc avc avc avc avc avc avc avc avc avc avc avc avc avc avc avc avc avc avc avc avc avc avc avc avc avc avc avc avc avc avc
