Gas­troin­testi­nal dis­eases and res­pi­ra­to­ry and skin in­fec­tions are ris­ing amid Is­rael war, UN agen­cies say.

De­spite their grief, rel­a­tives of the vic­tims of Hamas’s at­tack are among those ar­gu­ing against re­venge on Gaza.

UK an­nounces emer­gency leg­is­la­tion af­ter Supreme Court rules against gov­ern­ment plans to de­port refugees to Rwan­da.

The for­mer PM has called Gaza ‘a prison camp’ and ad­vo­cat­ed for two states, but he is also a staunch backer of Is­rael.

Ex­perts dis­cuss the le­gal im­pli­ca­tions of the term as Is­rael has used it to jus­ti­fy at­tacks on hos­pi­tals and civil­ians.

Is­rael’s as­sault on Gaza could spell the end of the Chris­t­ian com­mu­ni­ty’s long his­to­ry in the en­clave.

Crit­ics have called its use anti-Se­mit­ic amid Is­rael’s war on Gaza. But the slo­gan has more com­plex roots.

At least 130 ba­bies are de­pen­dent on elec­tric in­cu­ba­tors that are vul­ner­a­ble to pow­er cuts as Gaza runs out of fuel.

Is­rael has so far re­fused to re­lease in­for­ma­tion about Gaza work­ers who have dis­ap­peared, hu­man rights groups say.

Hu­man­i­tar­i­an or­gan­i­sa­tions warn dead­ly wa­ter-borne dis­eases will spread in the be­sieged strip if aid is not al­lowed in.
