Israel continues to buildup of soldiers near the border with the Gaza Strip. Saudi Arabia reportedly has paused US-led efforts to normalise ties with Israel.
Frightened Palestinians packed belongings and left their homes in northern Gaza on Friday after Israel’s military demanded that more than 1 million civilians move to the south of the blockaded coastal strip, a possible precursor to a ground invasion but one that the United Nations warned could be calamitous.
European Union leader Charles Michel on Friday warned that the Israel-Hamas war could create a surge in refugees heading for Europe, raising the risk of spurring on anti-migrant forces, deepening divisions and inflaming tensions between supporters of Israel and the Palestinians. — Eight Palestinians were killed by Israeli forces during confrontations in parts of the Israeli-occupied West Bank, the Palestinian Health Ministry said, as protests took place there and in other parts of the Middle East in solidarity with Gaza. Hamas has called for worldwide demonstrations on Friday to oppose Israeli actions in Gaza.
