New Israeli attacks in the Gaza Strip leave at least 48 dead in the last few hours
At least 48 Palestinians have died in the Gaza Strip in the last 24 hours from Israeli attacks, bringing the total number of fatalities in the last fifteen months to 45,854, including almost 18,000 children, according to data from the Ministry of Health of the enclave.
On the other hand, the injured are 109,139, after adding the 75 that arrived at the Gaza hospitals on the last day.
In addition, the Ministry controlled by Hamas figures at 11,000 missing under the rubble who have not yet been rescued.
Palestinian medical sources confirmed that they had received six deaths in the hospitals of Jan Yunis, in the southern Strip, as a result of bombings in the nearby city of Rafah, including two children attacked by a quadcopter drone.
Israeli attacks on the Nuseirat refugee camp
Shooting and artillery attacks have also been reported in the last few hours in the Nuseirat refugee camp, in the center of the enclave, where last night a drone attack in the middle of the camp against a meeting of citizens caused 19 injuries who were treated at the Al Awda hospital.
That same hospital received seven injuries as a result of another attack in the nearby Bureij refugee camp, in which three people from the same family, a child and his parents also died on the spot.
There are also reports of attacks within Gaza City, where a woman and her son were killed by a bombing on the Al Omari mosque in Al Daraj, a neighborhood in downtown Gaza City, where attacks were also recorded in the neighborhoods of Sheikh Radwan, Sabra and Zaytun.
Another baby dies of hypothermia and there are already 8 victims of the cold
The baby Yousef Anwar Klubb, who was only 35 days old, died last night of hypothermia in the fenced Gaza Strip, the eighth fatal victim of the cold in recent weeks, which has already claimed the lives of six other babies and a young man.
The baby died “as a result of harsh weather conditions and extreme cold,” confirmed the Ministry of Health in Gaza, which indicated that the victims due to low temperatures in the enclave have risen to eight.
All these deaths have occurred among displaced people in the Mawasi area, in the south of the Strip, who live in precarious tents, many of them damaged by inclement weather, so they do not protect well from the cold in the area, where many Gazans were forcibly forced to flee in the summer months, so they do not have the appropriate warm clothes to face the winter.
“We have repeatedly warned about the dangers of imminent climate depressions, the winter season and the frost waves, which coincide with the catastrophic reality that our Palestinian people live, who face murders, genocide, destruction of homes and vital sectors, as well as displacement and forced migration,” denounced the Gaza Government.
The Government warned that in the coming days “heavy rains and frosts” are expected, which poses a real threat to the lives of the displaced who have already been victims of “war crimes”; and demanded that the United States, Great Britain, France and Germany, countries that support Israel, intercede to “stop the genocide”.
The cold and lack of shelter causes the death of newborns
“The cold climate and lack of shelter are causing the death of newborns in Gaza, while 7,700 newborns lack care to save their lives,” the UN Agency for Palestinian Refugees (UNRWA) denounced today.
The UNRWA also denounced the attacks against the health system of the Strip and recalled that the Kamal Adwan hospital in Beit Lahia, the largest in the north of the enclave, has been out of service after being assaulted last week by the Israeli Army, which arrested about 200 people including part of the medical staff and its director, Dr. Husam Abu Safiya, who is in unknown.
“Up to 50 attacks in the vicinity of the hospital have been verified since October 2024,” the UN agency said. Israel launched a harsh “slamed earth” military offensive that month throughout the north of the enclave, which has caused at least 3,000 deaths and a thousand missing, although those figures have not been updated for weeks due to the lack of access to rescue services.

Authorities Say Teotihuacán Gunman Was Obsessed With Mass Shootings and Extremist Symbolism
Julio César Jasso Ramírez, identified by authorities as the gunman behind the armed attack at the archaeological site of Teotihuacán, had allegedly spent years building a personal narrative shaped by an obsession with historical mass shootings, extremist symbolism, and an increasing detachment from reality.
According to preliminary findings from the Fiscalía General de Justicia del Estado de México, the 27-year-old suspect, originally from the southern Mexican state of Oaxaca, acted alone and appeared to have carefully planned the attack.
Investigators also pointed to signs of a severe psychological or psychiatric disorder. One official involved in the case stated that the suspect seemed to live in “his own reality,” disconnected from the world around him.
“I would not speak of a motive; I would speak of psychopathy, a condition, an illness,” the official said while discussing the ongoing investigation.
Authorities reported that Jasso Ramírez was allegedly fixated on mass violence incidents that occurred outside Mexico, particularly in the United States.
Among the items found in his possession were writings, images, and materials reportedly linked to the Columbine High School massacre, the school shooting that took place on April 20, 1999.
The investigation remains ongoing as authorities continue analyzing evidence connected to the suspect’s background and mental state.

Iran refuses to reopen strait of Hormuz amid ongoing U.S. Naval blockade
Iran reaffirmed on Wednesday that it will not reopen the Strait of Hormuz while the United States maintains its naval blockade against Iranian ports and vessels, amid rising geopolitical tensions in the region.
Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohamad Baqer Qalibaf warned that reopening the crucial maritime route depends on Washington honoring the ceasefire agreement. According to Qalibaf, Iran considers the deal to be violated due to ongoing U.S. actions.
The Iranian official accused the United States of carrying out a “naval blockade and the hijacking of the global economy,” while also pointing to Israeli military operations in Lebanon as part of the broader conflict affecting the region.
Qalibaf stated that military and economic pressure would not force Iran to change its position. “The United States and Israel failed to achieve their goals through military aggression, and they will not succeed through intimidation. The only path forward is to recognize the rights of the Iranian nation,” he said.
His remarks come amid stalled negotiations between Iran and the United States following direct talks held on April 11 and 12 in Islamabad.
The discussions, led by U.S. Vice President JD Vance and Iranian representatives, have shown little progress in recent days, increasing uncertainty over whether dialogue between the two sides will resume.
U.S. President Donald Trump recently announced an extension of the ceasefire but decided to keep the naval blockade in place, a move Tehran considers incompatible with ongoing negotiations.
Meanwhile, Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps intensified operations in the area by seizing two vessels in the Strait of Hormuz, accusing them of operating without the required permits and escorting them into Iranian territory.
The Strait of Hormuz remains one of the world’s most critical oil trade routes, and any prolonged disruption could have significant consequences for global energy markets.

Maradona’s daughter accuses medical team of “horrible manipulation” in court
One of the daughters of Diego Maradona testified in court this Tuesday, breaking down in tears as she denounced what she described as “absolute and horrible manipulation” by her father’s medical team, during an emotional hearing in Argentina.
Gianinna Maradona stated that she and her siblings agreed to home hospitalization after doctors presented it as the best option following the neurosurgery Maradona underwent on November 3, 2020.
The football icon died on November 25 of that year, and the ongoing trial seeks to determine whether the conditions of his home care were appropriate.
According to Gianinna, what the family found at the residence where Maradona was recovering did not match what had been promised. She testified that there was no adequate medical equipment, constant monitoring, or even an ambulance available, despite assurances of continuous care.
“The manipulation was absolute and horrible,” she said during the hearing in San Isidro, near Buenos Aires.
She accused members of the medical team, including neurosurgeon Leopoldo Luque, psychiatrist Agustina Cosachov, and psychologist Carlos Díaz, of misleading the family.
“I trusted these people, and all they did was manipulate us and leave my son without a grandfather,” she added.
Later in her testimony, recalling that six years have passed since her father’s death, she became emotional and said she struggled deeply with grief in the aftermath.
