JERUSALEM, April 1 (Reuters) - Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu revived moves on Monday to shutter Qatari satellite television station Al Jazeera in Israel, pledging to take "immediate action" to close the station's local office while the war in Gaza continues. Hours after his party spokesperson said parliament would be convened to ratify the necessary law, the Knesset approved the bill allowing the temporary closure in Israel of foreign broadcasters considered to be a threat to national security.

 

The IDF walks them in and out.

GAZA CITY — Gaza’s largest hospital has been gutted. Combat bulldozers have moved sand into the courtyards. The buildings are scorched. It smells like death. Israeli commandos pulled out before dawn on Monday.

A sprawling medical campus that housed maternity wards, surgery suites and emergency rooms has been mostly destroyed after two weeks of intense assault by Israeli troops battling Hamas militants who Israel said were barricading themselves inside the complex.

Spokesmen for the Israel Defense Forces brought a handful of foreign journalists into the compound Sunday afternoon, just hours before the last special forces troops withdrew. A reporter and photographer from The Washington Post were there.

The IDF offered a narrow view — a pinhole, really — but what we saw was destruction on a massive scale. Military censors did not review our words or photos.

 

Wouldn't be surprised if Bibi slow-walked the final assault on Rafah for two reasons: To answer the call for fewer civilian casualties and to prolong the war to his benefit. Probably more the latter than the former.

 

World Central Kitchen Pauses Gaza Operations After 7 Workers Killed

The disaster relief nonprofit World Central Kitchen paused operations in Gaza and the region on Tuesday after the organization said seven of its workers were killed in an airstrike.

José Andrés, the organization’s founder, said on X that “several of our sisters and brothers” were killed in an Israeli airstrike on Monday. The group later said in a statement that the team was leaving a warehouse in central Gaza in two armored cars after unloading humanitarian food aid. The group said the convoy was hit despite having coordinated movements with the Israeli military.

They are absolutely responsible and it's absolutely brutal. It sounds like it was more a matter of criminally negligent incompetence than going out and saying "We're going to kill us some WCK aid workers." They apparently sent the drones after a suspected armed Hamas member who was supposed to be in one of the trucks but he never got in. And even if he had, they were willing to sacrifice WCK workers to get that guy which is totally fucked. Unless it's Sinwar himself and even then...
