Israel kills Hamas official in Gaza, intercepts missile from Yemen

 Israeli forces continue attacks across the Gaza Strip, killing at least 23 people in pre-dawn raids, including senior Hamas official Salah al-Bardawil and his wife.

The US bombs Yemen again, raiding an airport and port in Hodeidah, as well as the central province of Marib and northern governorate of Saada, according to Yemeni media.

In Lebanon, Israeli forces killed at least seven people following a rocket attack, endangering a ceasefire deal reached with Hezbollah four months ago.

Gaza’s Health Ministry says at least 49,747 Palestinians have been confirmed dead and 113,213 wounded in Israel’s war on Gaza. Gaza’s Government Media Office updated its death toll to more than 61,700, saying thousands of Palestinians missing under the rubble are presumed dead.

At least 1,139 people were killed in Israel during the Hamas-led October 7, 2023 attacks and more than 200 were taken captive.
