Middle East crisis live: WHO chief at Yemen airport during Israeli airstrikes; Netanyahu says attack ongoing ‘until we complete the job’

Houthi television reports say three people were killed in Israel’s strikes on Yemen; Israel says airstrikes target military infrastructure

An IDF reservist soldier was killed in fighting in the central Gaza Strip, the Israeli military said.

The 35-year-old was named as Amit Levi, the Jerusalem Post reported.

The Israeli army justifies or excuses this targeting by claiming it is aimed at individuals involved in Palestinian organisations and cells.

However, on the ground, these individuals were on journalistic assignments, residing in press vehicles and covering events.

May God take revenge on them, may God take revenge on them. He’s the one that makes the news and broadcasts the crimes to the world, this is what they do to them.
