Hello Middle East Eye readers,
Here are the most recent developments from the region:
On Monday morning, Israeli strikes on a residential building in the southern Lebanese town of Kfar Rumman resulted in at least 11 casualties, including two infants. Five others were injured in the attack.
Earlier in the week, Israeli air strikes across the Gaza Strip claimed the lives of five Palestinians, including two children. One drone strike targeted a vehicle in the al-Nasr neighborhood, killing one individual and wounding several others. A young boy was killed by artillery shelling in Deir al-Balah, a central Gaza city.
Separately, another girl and her father were killed while traveling in Gaza City.
The conflict in Yemen has left over 300 fighters and civilians dead since it reignited last week. Government officials reported 84 Israeli troops killed over the weekend, while Houthi military sources claimed 57 of their fighters perished in the same period.
In the occupied West Bank, Jewish settlers shot and killed a Palestinian man in Hajeh village, east of Qalqilya. The Palestinian Health Ministry confirmed the death following reports of Israeli forces and settlers opening fire on Palestinians, resulting in several injuries.
Iran's Foreign Ministry spokesman, Esmaeil Baqaei, held the US responsible for igniting the conflict and attempting to shift the global burden onto Iran. He highlighted how the US-led illegal and brutal war had disrupted commercial shipping, halted oil tankers, and driven up global energy prices.
