A medical report regarding detained Gaza hospital director Hussam Abu Safiya indicates significant weight loss and abnormalities in blood tests that were not investigated. Haaretz reports that these findings challenge previous findings made by Israeli courts regarding his medical condition.
The Board of Peace, an organization created by the Trump administration and backed by a UN Security Council resolution, urged Israel to allow essential aid into Gaza following massive weekend flooding. The Board of Peace stated that the entry of supplies for sanitation, drainage, and shelter is critical for protecting lives, as seasonal rains swamped tens of thousands of tents housing nearly 2 million displaced Palestinians, according to the United Nations.
The Israeli prime minister's office said Tuesday that the country would continue to support winter preparedness in Gaza, noting that other humanitarian supplies have entered the enclave. The statement added that Israel and the Board of Peace face a common challenge.
