In a shocking revelation, the Israeli Ministry of Military Affairs reports that over 10,000 Israeli forces have been affected by trauma in the ongoing Gaza conflict. The report highlights severe physical injuries, with 37% of troops suffering from limb trauma and 35% diagnosed with PTSD. Since the war began on October 7 last year, more than 300 Israeli forces have died. This escalation, which began as a response to the al-Aqsa Storm operation by Gaza’s resistance groups, has led to nearly 40,000 Palestinian deaths, predominantly women and children. As Israeli authorities release casualty figures sparingly, questions arise about whether the true cost of the war is being hidden. Hamas demands a ceasefire and the return of captives, while Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vows to continue until Hamas is eliminated—a goal deemed impossible by many. Explore the impact of this ongoing conflict and the controversy surrounding the reporting of casualties.

The Biden administration has released approximately half of the shipment of heavy bombs that had been withheld from Israel since May, according to a US official speaking to The Times of Israel. The decision to withhold the bombs was initially made due to concerns that the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) would use them in densely populated areas of Gaza, potentially causing mass-civilian casualties. In May, the White House announced it would withhold a shipment of 1,800 2,000-pound bombs and 1,700 500-pound bombs. President Joe Biden warned that additional offensive weaponry would be frozen if Israel launched a major military offensive in Rafah, Gaza's southernmost city, where over one million Palestinians were sheltering at the time.

In a powerful speech, Abdul-Malik al-Houthi, the leader of Yemen’s Ansarullah resistance movement, hailed Iran as a "true supporter" of the Palestinian cause and oppressed nations. He commended Iran's unconditional support for Palestinians, noting that the Islamic Republic remains resolute despite U.S. and Israeli pressure. Al-Houthi also warned of a dramatic escalation in anti-Israel operations alongside the Iraqi Islamic Resistance. He asserted that Netanyahu is attempting to rally Arab regimes against both Palestinians and Iran, and reaffirmed Iran's commitment to the Palestinian cause while condemning Israel's aggression. The Ansarullah leader disclosed details of joint operations between Yemeni forces and the Islamic Resistance in Iraq, revealing that Iraq has targeted Israeli locations with advanced Arqab cruise missiles. He mentioned that Yemeni forces have initiated the fifth phase of their anti-Israel strikes with Operation Yafa, which surprised Israel and struck crucial targets in Tel Aviv. Al-Houthi condemned Israel’s military actions in Gaza, describing them as extremely terrible and cruel. He also mentioned Israel's military raids in the West Bank and called for a Friday protest in Yemen to express solidarity with Palestinians.
