Quick Glance: Israeli Strikes in Rafah Kill 22, Mostly Children, as US Advances Aid Package

Israeli strikes in the southern Gaza city of Rafah killed 22 people, including 18 children. The United States is on track to approve billions of dollars of additional military aid to Israel.

The conflict between Israel and Hamas has killed over 34,000 Palestinians, with at least two-thirds being children and women. The devastation in Gaza has left a swath of destruction.

The $26 billion aid package approved by the House of Representatives includes around $9 billion in humanitarian assistance for Gaza, which experts say is on the brink of famine.

Tensions between Israel and Iran have escalated, leading to direct hostilities. The region is in turmoil, with violence escalating in the West Bank.

Quick Glance: Discovery of Nearly 300 Bodies in Mass Grave at Gaza Hospital

Workers from the Gaza Civil Defense announced the discovery of a mass grave with almost 300 bodies at a hospital in the southern city of Khan Younis in Gaza, subsequent to the withdrawal of Israeli forces earlier this month.

Colonel Yamen Abu Suleiman, the Director of Civil Defense in Khan Younis, informed CNN on Monday that 73 bodies were found in the courtyard of the Nasser Medical Complex, bringing the total number to 283.

It is believed that some bodies were discovered with bound hands and feet, along with indications of field executions. The specific circumstances of their deaths, whether they were buried alive or executed, remain unclear.

The IDF has stated that they transported multiple bodies from Gaza to Israel for DNA testing before repatriating the remains in containers. The region surrounding the Nasser Medical Complex experienced heavy bombardment and conflict during January and February.

Quick Glance: Israeli Strikes on Rafah Kill 22, Mostly Children, as US Advances Aid Package

Israeli strikes on the southern Gaza city of Rafah overnight killed 22 people, including 18 children, as the US House of Representatives approved $13 billion in new Israeli military aid.

However, fears of wider war breaking out in the Middle East have eased somewhat after Iran downplayed Israel’s reported retaliation over its unprecedented missile and drone attack on the country a week ago.

Israel has carried out near-daily air raids on Rafah and vowed to expand its ground offensive against the Hamas militant group to the city on the border with Egypt despite calls for restraint, including from the US.

Tensions have also spiked in the Israeli-occupied West Bank, with Israeli troops killing two Palestinians who attacked a checkpoint with a knife and a gun near the southern West Bank town of Hebron.

Quick Glance: Israel artist calls for Gaza ceasefire

The representative of Israel at the international art fair is calling for an immediate ceasefire in Israel’s war on Gaza.

Ruth Patir’s video installation called (M)otherland was scheduled to open on Saturday at Israel’s national pavilion at the international art show but will remain closed for now.

Patir stated on her website that the artist and curators are showing solidarity with the families of the hostages and the large community in Israel calling for change, rather than canceling themselves or the exhibition.

It is believed that there are still individuals in Gaza, including 129 captives taken during the attacks led by Hamas on Israel on October 7, with 34 of them presumed dead.

Quick Glance: Netanyahu Vows to Fight Sanctions on Army Battalions

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stated on April 21 that he would oppose sanctions being imposed on any Israeli military units for alleged rights violations, following reports of Washington planning such a move.

The United States announced on April 19 a new series of sanctions related to Israeli settlers in the West Bank, signaling growing frustration with Netanyahu's policies, who relies on settler parties for his coalition government.

War Cabinet Minister Benny Gantz, a former Chief of Armed Forces and centrist, mentioned in a statement on April 21 that he had spoken with US Secretary of State Antony Blinken, urging him to reconsider the issue.

Blinken mentioned on April 19 that he had made 'determinations' regarding accusations of Israel violating a set of US laws prohibiting military assistance to individuals or security force units committing gross human rights violations.

Quick Glance: Israeli Strike Damages Iranian Air Defense System Without Detection, Officials Say

An Israeli airstrike on Iran on Friday damaged an air defense system, according to Western and Iranian officials, and appeared calculated to deliver a message that Israel could bypass Iran’s defensive systems undetected and paralyze them.

The strike damaged a defensive battery near Natanz, a city in central Iran that is critical to the country’s nuclear weapons program, according to the officials.

The relatively limited scope of Israel’s strike and the muted response from Iranian officials, however, seem to have eased tensions.

It was confirmed that Israel had deployed aerial drones and at least one missile fired from a warplane, as stated by three Western and two Iranian officials.

In the Security Council, 12 countries voted for a UN resolution recommending full Palestinian membership, with the US opposing and two countries abstaining.

The US argued that Palestinian membership should result from negotiations between Israel and Palestinians to enable a two-state solution.

The Palestinian delegation emphasized that UN membership is a crucial step for peace in the region and criticized the Israeli government for its rejection.

Israel rejected the resolution and warned of its potential impact on future dialogues, especially in light of the recent escalation of violence in Gaza.
