Gaza
\nThe Palestinian death toll in Gaza from Israel\u2019s deadly onslaught since October 2023 has reached 72,280 people, with 172,014 others wounded, the health ministry said on Monday.
\nIn a statement, the ministry said that two people were killed and a third was injured by Israeli fire in the past 24 hours. According to the ministry, at least 704 people have been killed and 1,914 others injured by Israeli fire since a ceasefire deal took effect on October 10, 2025.
\nThe ministry explained that local authorities managed to recover 756 bodies from the rubble since the ceasefire.
\nThe Israeli offensive has displaced almost the entire population of Gaza and caused widespread destruction affecting 90% of civilian infrastructure, with reconstruction costs estimated by the United Nations at about $70 billion.
\nIsraeli death penalty bill for Palestinians
\nIsrael\u2019s parliament is expected today to vote on a bill that would make the death penalty a default sentence for Palestinians convicted in military court of killing Israelis, a measure \u200bthat Israel\u2019s European allies say would unfairly target Palestinians under military occupation.
\nThe measure includes provisions requiring sentencing within 90 days with no right \u200cto clemency. It was devised by Itamar Ben-Gvir, the far-right national security minister, who, along with other ardent supporters, has worn noose-shaped lapel pins in the run-up to the vote.
\nThe bill\u2019s critics say it aims at Palestinians in the West Bank by instructing military courts in the occupied territory to impose the death penalty in cases involving killings of Israelis, except in \u201cspecial circumstances\u201d. Those courts only try \u200bPalestinians and have a near-100% conviction rate, rights groups say.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
