Here’s where things stand on Thursday 10 July 2025:
- Israeli forces intensify air attacks on Gaza, killing at least 47 Palestinians across the besieged territory since dawn, medical sources tell Al Jazeera.
- The head of the UN agency for Palestinian refugees slams Israeli plans for the mass displacement of Palestinians towards Rafah in southern Gaza.
- Doctors at Gaza’s largest hospitals say the lives of more than 100 premature babies and 350 dialysis patients are at risk because of fuel shortages caused by Israel’s ongoing siege.
- US President Donald Trump extends timeframe for a truce, saying there is a “very good chance” of a deal in Gaza this week or next, but Hamas says talks in Qatar have been “difficult” because of Israel’s stubbornness.
- Israel’s war on Gaza has killed at least 57,575 people and wounded 136,879, according to Gaza’s Health Ministry. An estimated 1,139 people were killed in Israel during the October 7, 2023 attacks and more than 200 were taken captive.
UNIFIL patrol fires smoke bombs after tension with Lebanese youth in southern town
Footage verified by Al Jazeera’s Sanad agency shows forces with the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) being pushed back by Lebanese youth while trying to enter the town of Aytit in southern Lebanon.
Lebanon’s National News Agency reported that the UNIFIL patrol members fired smoke bombs before retreating.
According to other local media, the tensions erupted after several town residents objected to the passing of a UNIFIL patrol alone, considering it a “violation of the adopted protocol” which requires it to be accompanied by the Lebanese army.
Israel’s army claims to have destroyed ‘terrorist’ infrastructure in Gaza’s Khan Younis
The Israeli military says 130 “terrorist infrastructure sites” have been destroyed in southern Gaza’s Khan Younis, where its Golani Brigade continues to expand a ground invasion.
It said in a statement that a sizeable tunnel used by Palestinian fighters was discovered, as well as weapons stockpiles and booby-trapped buildings.
The Israeli army has already destroyed much of Khan Younis and neighbouring Rafah, where it is planning to build a concentration camp for Palestinians, ostensibly to separate them from Hamas.
Hamas names Palestinian man killed in West Bank after knife attack on Israeli soldier
Earlier, we reported on an incident in which a Palestinian man was killed after an Israeli soldier was injured in a stabbing attack in the village of Rummanah, west of Jenin in the occupied West Bank.
Now, Hamas released a statement, identifying the killed suspect as Ahmad Ali Amur, 55.
“As we mourn the perpetrator of the attack … we affirm that this attack sends a message that all attempts by the occupation to extinguish the flames of resistance in the West Bank will fail,” said the statement.
Israeli forces arrest over 50 Palestinians in occupied West Bank raids
More than 50 Palestinians have been arrested in Israeli raids across the occupied West Bank, the Palestinian Prisoners’ Media Office (ASRA) says.
The raids took place in Nablus, Qalqilya, Tubas, Hebron, Jenin, Bethlehem and Ramallah.
ASRA said children, activists and former prisoners who had been released were among those arrested. It added that raids had taken place at homes and educational institutions.
Israeli forces shoot 5 Palestinians dead near Khan Younis
Five Palestinians have been killed by Israeli forces to the northwest of the city of Khan Younis in southern Gaza, sources at Nasser Hospital have told our colleagues at Al Jazeera Arabic.
Districts surrounding Khan Younis are coming under sustained attack as the Israeli military mounts a new incursion in the area.
Gaza death toll since dawn rises to 47
At least 47 Palestinians have been killed in Israeli attacks on Gaza since dawn, with the largest death toll recorded in the central city of Deir el-Balah, according to medical sources speaking to Al Jazeera.
The latest killing came in northern Gaza’s Jabalia al-Balad, where at least one person was killed and several injured, according to a source at Gaza City’s Ahli Hospital.
More on Israeli drone strike in Deir el-Balah
I’m here on one of its busiest streets of Deir el-Balah, where an Israeli drone struck a group of civilians earlier today. The attack took place where people were lining up outside a charity to get food supplements. More than a dozen people were killed, many of them women and children.
Evidence of the strike is all around. This is a small but very deep hole in the ground resulting from the Israeli attack. You can see one of the shoes left by a Palestinian child, a shattered window in a nearby house. There are craters on the wall left by Israeli drone shrapnel.
People here say there was a great deal of panic. You can see blood on the ground, where attempts were made to rescue the victims.
People are terrified. Right now, everyone is left wondering what might come next.
Displaced Jenin residents recount their brief return to pack up belongings
After months of relentless Israeli attacks on the Jenin refugee camps in the occupied West Bank, some Palestinian women have been allowed to briefly return, only to pack up their belongings and leave.
After applying for permission from the Israeli military, they were given 40 minutes to pack a lifetime of memories in the al-Hawashin neighbourhood of Jenin.
Nisreen Abu Zeina, a displaced woman from Jenin, said they just wanted to check on the camp and their homes.
“We pray that one day we will be back,” she told Al Jazeera. “We were searched over and over again, but we eventually managed to get to our homes that are still standing. We walked a long distance on destroyed roads, the stench was unbearable. They kept rushing us.”
One operational GHF aid site cannot meet Gaza’s needs
The GHF’s announcement that it is suspending operations at a number of its aid distribution sites in Gaza leaves only one site still open. That cannot be enough to meet the needs of hungry Palestinians in Gaza.
It will mean people will be forced to travel to the southern part of the territory in order to get food supplies, and will often return empty-handed after making the long and dangerous journey to Rafah.
Amid Israel’s blockade, hungry Palestinians have come to rely on food supplies provided by charitable organisations.
Earlier this morning, at least a dozen Palestinians were killed in an Israeli strike while they were waiting for a food supplement to be distributed by a charitable organisation very close to where we are in Deir el-Balah.
Tragically, these kinds of horrific scenes have become routine in Gaza, leading to widespread calls for the resumption of normal flows of aid into the territory to avoid the dangerous, chaotic scenes we’re seeing.
Gaza ceasefire talks in grey zone as big disagreements remain
We are now very much in a grey zone. Let’s remember that what is being negotiated is a framework for a Gaza ceasefire. So, once an agreement is negotiated on that, the parties still have to negotiate some of the details regarding implementation.
While Benjamin Netanyahu’s meetings in Washington haven’t produced a breakthrough, his partners in the coalition in Israel are already preparing the groundwork for opposition to any redeployment of troops in Gaza or abandoning the Morag Corridor in the southern part of the enclave.
This is significant because not leaving that area will allow Israel to maintain control and isolate Rafah, which would facilitate the implementation of the mass expulsion plan that the defence minister in Israel has talked about.
That is why sources within Hamas and other Palestinian armed groups have voiced frustration about a manufactured optimism that is meant to put them in the corner and make them look intransigent.
