US sanctions on Albanese shows rules-based international order ‘no longer exists’
We’ve spoken to human rights lawyer Arsalan Iftikhar about the Trump administration’s sanctions on UN expert Francesca Albanese over her documentation of Israel’s abuses against Palestinians.
Iftikhar said the sanctions show that the rules-based international order “no longer exists”. “This is another shameless and transparent attack by the Trump administration on the fundamental principles of international justice,” he said.
“It’s a double standard that if you are a strongman that is a friend of President Trump’s, you’ll be welcomed with open arms, even though you have two indictments from the International Criminal Court and the International Court of Justice,” he said, in a reference to Israeli leader Benjamin Netanyahu.
“But if you’re a UN human rights lawyer that is trying to investigate, then you’re going to have your visa revoked.”
Israeli army claims to have intercepted missile launched from Yemen
The Israeli military says it has intercepted a missile launched from Yemen.
Air raid sirens were reported in Tel Aviv and other locations in Israel in response to the threat.
Yemen’s Houthi rebels, who control the most populous parts of the country, have been firing at Israel and attacking shipping lanes in what they say is an act of solidarity with Palestinians in Gaza.
Earlier this week, Israel carried out strikes on the Yemeni port city of Hodeidah.
More on deadly Israeli raid in occupied West Bank’s Rummanah village
We earlier reported via our colleagues at Al Jazeera Arabic that Israeli forces killed a Palestinian man in the village of Rummanah during a raid in the early hours of this morning.
Now, the Israeli military says that one of its soldiers was stabbed in Rummanah and the suspect was killed. An army statement on X said the soldier was taken to hospital, and described his injuries as moderate.
We will bring you more information when we have it.
At least 24 Palestinians killed in Israeli attacks across Gaza since dawn
Hospital sources have told our colleagues at Al Jazeera Arabic that most of the 24 people killed in the Israeli attacks across the besieged Palestinian territory since dawn were women and children.
The majority of the killings were recorded in central and southern Gaza.
We will bring you more details as soon as possible.
Israeli forces kill Palestinian man in occupied West Bank raid
Our colleagues at Al Jazeera Arabic are reporting that Israeli forces killed a Palestinian man in the village of Rummanah during a raid in the early hours of this morning.
The town is located west of the city of Jenin in the occupied West Bank.
Israeli forces also arrested a number of Palestinians during a separate raid in the Qalandiya refugee camp in the Jerusalem governorate.
Gaza truce possible in one or two weeks: Israeli official
We have been reporting on the renewed push for a ceasefire in Gaza.
The Reuters news agency is now reporting that a senior Israeli official has tamped down expectations that a deal could be possible before Netanyahu leaves Washington, DC, later today.
The official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said Israel and Hamas may be able to reach a Gaza ceasefire and captives-release deal within one or two weeks but such an agreement is not likely to be secured in just a day’s time.
The official said if the two sides agree to a proposed 60-day ceasefire, Israel would use that time to offer a permanent ceasefire that would require Hamas to disarm. If Hamas refuses to disarm, Israel will “proceed” with military operations in Gaza, the official said.
Trump had previously predicted that a deal could be reached this week, but on Wednesday, he appeared to extend the timeframe somewhat, telling reporters that while an agreement was “very close”, it could happen this week or even next – though “not definitely”.
Israeli strike kills 13 more Palestinians in central Gaza
Medical sources at Al Aqsa Hospital say at least 13 Palestinians have been killed in an Israeli attack on Deir el-Balah in central Gaza.
Dozens of others were injured in the attack, the sources said.
Earlier, we reported that four people were killed in an Israeli attack on Al Bureij refugee camp, which is also located in central Gaza.

A recap of recent developments
- Israeli attacks across Gaza have killed at least 74 people on Wednesday, medical sources told Al Jazeera, including eight Palestinians waiting to receive aid at a Gaza Humanitarian Foundation site.
- Israel’s continued attacks come as US President Donald Trump said he believes there is a “very good chance” of securing a ceasefire “agreement of some kind” within the next week.
- Hamas says it is continuing efforts to ensure “success” in the truce talks, and announced that it would show “necessary flexibility” and release 10 living Israeli captives if a ceasefire is secured.
- Key points of contention remain, including the complete withdrawal of Israeli troops from Gaza, the unfettered flow of aid and US guarantees of a permanent end to the war.
- Rights groups condemn the Trump administration’s decision to impose sanctions on UN special rapporteur Francesca Albanese, with Amnesty International chief Agnes Callamard saying she was “dismayed” by the decision.
- The UN envoy for Yemen, Hans Grundberg, expressed alarm at the “escalation” in the Red Sea after Yemen’s Houthis sank a Greek-operated vessel on Wednesday, killing at least four sailors.
