Gaza/Ramallah (International Desk) – In the Gaza Strip, Israeli military firing over the past 24 hours resulted in the martyrdom of 4 Palestinians and injured 10 others. Meanwhile, in the West Bank city of Al-Khalil (Hebron), an Israeli siege prevented approximately 80,000 Palestinian students from attending school last week. Following a 10-day blockade, the Israeli forces have withdrawn from Al-Khalil, allowing residents to return to their homes. In a separate development, former Israeli Major General Yitzhak Brik warned that Israel faces systemic decline across its military, economy, and state institutions, comparing recent election results to a “death certificate” for the state as national debt reaches roughly $445 billion. Additionally, King Abdullah II of Jordan cautioned that Israeli expansionist ambitions pose the greatest threat to the region.
