Four Palestinians die in an attack with an Israeli drone in Tulkarem, West Bank

Four Palestinians died in an Israeli attack with a drone in the Nur Shams refugee camp, in Tulkarem, northern occupied West Bank, confirmed by the Palestinian Ministry of Health.

“A plane of the Israel Defense Forces attacked a terrorist cell in the Nur Shams area while they were placing an explosive device,” the Israeli Army said in a statement.

According to the Palestinian media, one of the deceased is Nimr Hamarsha, identified as a militiaman.

Israeli attacks are not frequent, but they have normalized in the occupied West Bank in the last year, especially since Israel intensified its raids in parallel with the war in Gaza, where it has carried out more than 4,100 “suspected” arrests, including more than 1,700 with alleged links to Hamas.

Yenin is the main focus of violence, but in recent months Tulkarem has become another scene of the Israeli rads against local militias.

The occupied West Bank is experiencing its largest spiral of violence since the Second Intifada (2000-05), and so far in 2024 at least 226 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli fire, most of them alleged militiamen or attackers, but also civilians, including about 45 minors, according to the EFE count, after closing 2023 as the deadliest year in two decades with more than 520 deaths.

On the Israeli side, 16 Israelis have died this year, ten uniformed personnel and six civilians, five of them settlers.

The Israeli Army intensified its already frequent incursions into the occupied West Bank after the attack in Hamas on October 7 and, since then, at least 556 Palestinians have been killed in violent incidents with Israel, mainly with troops and a dozen of them at the hands of settlers.

Seven bodies found with signs of torture in Sinaloa

Mexican authorities discovered seven lifeless bodies on Wednesday, showing clear signs of torture, in the rural area of Culiacán, Sinaloa, just one day after the same number of bodies was found in several municipalities in the western state of Mexico.

Six of these seven victims were found along the side of the highway that connects Culiacán to Mazatlán, near Laguna de Canachi, according to local media reports, which also noted that messages addressed to a criminal group were found near the bodies.

This brings the total number of violent deaths in the region to seven within just 24 hours. On Tuesday, authorities reported more victims found in the municipalities of Culiacán, Elota, and Mazatlán.

Among the victims identified was a local cattle rancher named Ramón Velázquez Ontiveros, as well as a police officer from Mazatlán, who was killed by a motorcyclist outside his home in San Marcos.

Málaga paralyzed by new storm as torrential rains hit Spain

Thousands of people were evacuated and trains were suspended as torrential rains once again struck Spain on Wednesday, following the devastating floods that killed at least 223 people two weeks ago, most of them in the Valencia region.

The national meteorological agency (Aemet) issued a maximum, red-level alert for the Andalusian province of Málaga in the south, and for Tarragona in the northeast, due to the new DANA (isolated depression at high levels), also known as a cold drop.

The city of Málaga appeared to be the hardest hit by the rains, with more than 3,000 people evacuated from 1,000 homes near rivers, flooded streets, and the suspension of urban transport and train services to Madrid.

“Today Málaga is paralyzed,” said Andalusia’s regional president, Juan Manuel Moreno, to reporters. “I know it is a problem for citizens not being able to take their children to school or go to work, but after what we saw in Valencia, we need to ‘prevent’ and minimize the impact in terms of loss of life,” he added.

The storm also led to the postponement of a match between Spain and Poland in the Billie Jean King Cup women’s tennis competition, which was scheduled for Wednesday afternoon in Málaga.

Hezbollah launches explosive drone strike on Israel’s defense headquarters

The Lebanese Islamist movement Hezbollah claimed on Wednesday that it launched an attack with explosive drones against the Israeli army’s headquarters in Tel Aviv.

The Iran-backed organization reported in a statement that it had carried out “an aerial attack with a squadron of explosive drones” targeting the site that houses Israel’s main defense institutions.

Hezbollah later stated that it also fired a barrage of rockets at the Glilot military intelligence base in the suburbs of Tel Aviv.

The Israeli military indicated that “sirens sounded in several areas of northern and central Israel following the launch of projectiles from Lebanon.”

It later clarified that “five projectiles were identified over the territory, and some were intercepted.”
