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.

World leaders react to U.S. attacks on Venezuela, sparking global divide
The following are international reactions to the U.S. attacks carried out on Saturday against Venezuela:
Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs
China said it was “deeply shocked” and strongly condemned the use of force by the United States against a sovereign country, as well as the use of force against the president of that nation.
“China firmly opposes this hegemonic behavior by the United States, which seriously violates international law, infringes upon Venezuela’s sovereignty, and threatens peace and security in Latin America and the Caribbean,” the ministry said. It urged Washington to comply with international law and the purposes and principles of the United Nations Charter, and to cease actions that violate the sovereignty and security of other countries.
French Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot
Barrot stated that the military operation that led to the capture of Nicolás Maduro violates the principle of non-use of force, which underpins international law. He stressed that no lasting political solution can be imposed from outside and that only sovereign peoples can decide their own future.
Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs
Russia said the United States had committed an act of armed aggression against Venezuela, describing the move as deeply troubling and condemnable.
“The pretexts used to justify such actions are unfounded,” the ministry said, adding that ideological animosity had prevailed over pragmatism and the willingness to build relations based on trust and predictability.
Moscow emphasized the need to prevent further escalation and to focus on resolving the crisis through dialogue. It reiterated that Latin America should remain a zone of peace, as declared in 2014, and that Venezuela must be guaranteed the right to determine its own destiny without external — especially military — interference.
Russia also said it supports calls by Venezuelan authorities and Latin American leaders for an urgent meeting of the United Nations Security Council.
United Nations
UN spokesman Stéphane Dujarric said Secretary-General António Guterres continues to stress the importance of full respect for international law, including the UN Charter. He added that the secretary-general is deeply concerned that international legal norms were not respected.
Government of Argentina and President Javier Milei
Argentine President Javier Milei, a close regional ally of Donald Trump, posted on X: “FREEDOM MOVES FORWARD. LONG LIVE FREEDOM, DAMN IT,” alongside a video showing him at a summit describing Maduro as a threat to the region and supporting the pressure exerted by Trump on Caracas.
In a statement, the Argentine government praised “the decision and determination shown by the President of the United States and his administration in the recent actions taken in Venezuela that led to the capture of the dictator Nicolás Maduro, leader of the Cartel of the Suns.”
Argentina said it hopes these developments represent a decisive step forward in the fight against narcoterrorism in the region.
Mexican Foreign Ministry
Mexico strongly condemned and rejected the unilateral military actions carried out in recent hours by U.S. armed forces against targets in Venezuelan territory, calling them a clear violation of Article 2 of the United Nations Charter.
The Mexican government reiterated that dialogue and negotiation are the only legitimate and effective means to resolve disputes and reaffirmed its willingness to support any effort aimed at facilitating dialogue, mediation, or accompaniment to preserve regional peace and prevent confrontation.
