     STORY: Funerals such as this one are now all too common in the war-ravaged Gaza Strip. And these victims, buried on Friday (June 28), were emergency workers, who were killed after an Israeli airstrike hit the headquarters of the Palestinian Civil Emergency Service in Al-Nuseirat camp. These are the crews who run toward fire, digging through rubble, seeking survivors. The rescue service said its facility was struck just before midnight. It said the latest deaths raised the tally of staff killed by Israeli forces to 74 since the start of the war on October 7. Mohammed Al-Mugheir, the director of support at the Palestinian Civil Defence told Reuters his emergency teams faced severe shortages of critical supplies as a result of Israel’s military offensive, which has left the densely-populated coastal enclave in ruins. “The capabilities are almost non-existent, in light of the increased strikes and airstrikes. Missions which would require two hours, take up to four to six hours to complete as the rescue machinery (needed) do not exist due to lack of fuel to operate the machinery needed to break concrete and to pull martyrs and the wounded from under the rubble.” The loss of rescue workers is yet another compounding tragedy for Gaza residents. Israel launched a massive air and ground offensive into Gaza after Hamas militants rampaged through Israeli communities on October 7, killing 1200 and taking 250 captives, according to Israeli tallies. Israel's retaliation has killed more than 37,000 people, according to the Gaza Health Ministry. The Israeli military released footage on Friday, purporting to show its tanks operating in Shejaia, in the northern Gaza Strip, while Palestinian officials said Israeli forces were also pressing in the south. Reuters was able to verify part of the video based on buildings, but was was not able to independently verify the date when the video was filmed. Residents and Hamas media said tanks advanced further west into Rafah, forcing thousands of displaced people there to leave their tent camps and head northward to nearby Khan Younis. The Israeli military did not immediately comment. Since May 7, tanks have advanced in several districts of Rafah, and forces remained in control of the entire border line with Egypt and the Rafah crossing, the only gateway for most of Gaza's 2.3 million people with the outside world.

     Will Iran's election change anything?

     Reuters Videos

     STORY: All four candidates in Iran's presidential election are loyal to the supreme leader. So the next president is unlikely to bring a major shift to the Islamic Republic. Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, the 85-year-old who has been supreme leader since 1989, holds the reins of power. And a hardline watchdog vetted the candidates, presenting voters with little real choice. Public discontent, especially among Iran's youth, has kept voters away in recent elections. And this one also coincides with rising regional tensions, with conflict raging between Israel and two armed groups backed by Iran - Hamas in Gaza and Lebanon's Hezbollah. :: Will anything change? A new president won't change Iran's backing for militant groups, its policy on Iran's nuclear program or relations with the West. Khamenei calls the shots on top state matters. POLITICAL UNIVERSITY STUDENT, AMIR ALI ZAMANI: "No, I don't think it matters. Foreign policy has always remained the same, and this year will be no different from previous years." But the president does run day-to-day government and can change the tone of Iran's foreign and domestic policy. All candidates have promised to fix an ailing economy that's beset by mismanagement, corruption and sanctions and a source of deep frustration for Iranians. More importantly, the outcome could influence the succession to Khamenei. :: Who are the candidates? So who is standing? The presidency was left empty by the death in May of President Ebrahim Raisi in a helicopter crash. Three of the candidates are hardliners and one is a low-profile comparative moderate. Mohammed Baqer Qalibaf is one of two hardline frontrunners. He's the current speaker of parliament and a former Revolutionary Guards commander. Civil rights activists know Qalibaf for crushing protests - first as national police chief, when he personally beat protesters... Then as Tehran mayor for 12 years, when hell helped suppress months of unrest that shook the establishment in 2009. The other frontrunner is Saeed Jalili. He's best known abroad as a former chief nuclear negotiator for five years from 2007. Jalili lost his leg fighting in the Iran-Iraq war in the 1980s and declares himself a pious believer in Iran's system of Islamic government. The third hardliner is Mostafa Pourmohammadi, the only cleric left in the race. He's a former interior minister and deputy intelligence minister. Human Rights Watch, in 2005, documented Pourmohammadi's alleged role in the execution of hundreds of political prisoners in Tehran in 1988. Allegations he has never publicly addressed. Massoud Pezeshkian is the only relative moderate among the four, backed by the pro-reform camp. "Just as we can talk to each other, we can also learn to talk to our neighbours and rest of the world. We cannot fight everyone, we should not fight, we should not show aggression to others.” Pezeshkian was vocal in criticizing the Islamic Republic for its lack of transparency over Mahsa Amini... :: Released December 2022 ... a young Iranian Kurdish woman whose death in custody sparked several months of unrest in 2022. Some activists at home and abroad called for a boycott of the election, saying voting served to legitimize the Islamic Republic.

     Iran's leader Khamenei votes in presidential election

     Reuters Videos

     STORY: :: Iran's Ayatollah Ali Khamenei votes in the presidential election as the polls open :: Khamenei urged the public to vote, where they will choose from four candidates loyal to the supreme leader :: June 28, 2025 :: Ayatollah Ali Khamenei :: Supreme Leader of Iran :: "Election day is a time of great joy and excitement for us Iranians, especially during a presidential election when the people’s vote will determine our president for the coming years. :: "The longevity, stability, reputation, and honor of the Islamic Republic depends on the people’s participation." While the election is unlikely to bring a major shift in the Islamic Republic's policies, its outcome could influence the succession to Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Iran's 85-year-old supreme leader, in power since 1989. Khamenei called for a high turnout to offset a legitimacy crisis fueled by public discontent over economic hardship and curbs on political and social freedom. Voter turnout has plunged over the past four years, as a mostly youthful population chafes at political and social curbs. The election coincides with escalating regional tension due to war between Israel and Iranian allies Hamas in Gaza and Hezbollah in Lebanon, as well as increased Western pressure on Iran over its fast-advancing nuclear program.

     Protesters in Jerusalem demand Netanyahu's resignation

     Reuters Videos

     STORY: ::Jerusalem, Israel ::June 27, 2024 ::Anti-government protesters march towards Netanyahu's home, demanding his resignation ::Protests against Netanyahu have become more frequent as the war with Hamas in Gaza rages on "We think that he (Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu) has to make a bigger effort to bring back the hostages. We want him down because he's a major, corrupted person. He lies and thieves the country and the people. He doesn't do the job. He wants the war endless. So we thinks he's a jerk and he has to go. And we are demonstrating against him." Such demonstrations have grown more frequent as the war against Hamas in Gaza rages on and fighting with Hezbollah in Lebanon threatens to escalate, but they have not reached the fever pitch of a year ago when Netanyahu's government tried to overhaul Israel's justice system. Many in the crowd, which appeared to number in the thousands, also chanted their support for reaching a deal to free some 120 Israeli hostages being held by Palestinian Islamist group Hamas in Gaza. As the sun began to set, protesters blocked traffic and lit a large bonfire on the central Jerusalem street. But there were no reports of major scuffles and police did not use a water cannon to control the crowd, as they have during more rowdy demonstrations. The protest movement has yet to change the political landscape, and Netanyahu still controls a stable majority in parliament.

     Anti-government protesters block highways across Israel

     Reuters Videos

     STORY: :: Fires burn on Israeli highways as anti-government protesters block roads :: Tel Aviv, Israel :: June 27, 2024 :: Groups across the country called for an election to replace Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's government : Aner Ben Ami, Protester : "Obviously I came here to demonstrate, as you can see behind me, we came here to oppose this government, a government that is just putting us in an endless war with no exit strategy, with with no end in sight, drawing out the war. And we, you know, we need this to stop. We need elections. The government has no trust from the country, from the public and we need it to stop." : Near Rishon Lezion, Israel In Tel Aviv, protesters placed a metal cage-like object on the main road leading into the city and lit a fire, bringing traffic to a standstill for scores of vehicles. Others called for the immediate release of hostages. Similar protests blocking main highways and junctions took place also south of Tel Aviv, near Rishon Lezion, and north of Tel Aviv, near HaBonim. Israelis have been protesting for the release of hostages taken by Hamas on Oct. 7, 2023, during the Islamist group's attack on Israeli border communities that killed at least 1,200 people, mostly civilians. After the attack, Israel launched a war against Hamas with the aim to destroy the group that rules the Gaza Strip, killing over 37,000 Palestinians according to the territory's health officials. Israeli protest groups that have been opposing Netanyahu's government since it announced a judicial reform over a year ago, joined forces to call for the government's resignation and new elections in light of what they perceive as failed handling of the hostage situation and the war in general.

     Israel ends draft exemptions for ultra-Orthodox Jews

     Reuters Videos

     STORY: Israel's Supreme Court ruled on Tuesday (June 25) that the state must begin drafting ultra-Orthodox Jewish seminary students into the military. It's a decree that has divided lawmakers, and could cause further tension in Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's governing coalition. Netanyahu's government relies on two ultra-Orthodox parties. Both see conscription exemptions as key to keeping their constituents in religious seminaries, and away from a melting-pot military that might test their conservative customs. Leaders of those parties said they were disappointed with the ruling - but neither issued an immediate threat to the government. Moshe Roth is from the ultra-Orthodox United Torah Judaism party. "This ruling actually doesn't have any implications, any practical implications. It is more of a declaration, more than anything else. It doesn't add anything to the defense issue at this time. So it's very hard to give any credit to this ruling, it doesn't mean very much. In fact, the High Court shouldn't have interfered at all in this issue." The prospect of the military starting to draft seminary students could widen cracks in Netanyahu's increasingly brittle coalition. Some voiced hopes that all parties will work together on the conscription issue. Ariel Kallner is from Netanyahu's own Likud party. "We are committed in the Knesset to to the IDF needs, but we are also committed that this paradigm that the ultra-Orthodox community will feel comfortable in the army and it will not feel a threat on their beliefs and they and they will be able to enter the army is it looks and go out of the army as ultra-Orthodox and this is our commitment and we are going to work on it." Opposition parties have welcomed the ruling. The ultra-Orthodox conscription waiver has come at a time when Israel's armed forces are overstretched due to the multi-front war with Hamas in Gaza and Hezbollah in Lebanon. Israelis are bound by law to serve in the military from the age of 18 - three years for men and two years for women. Members of Israel's Arab minority are exempt, though some do serve. And ultra-Orthodox Jewish seminary students have also been largely exempt for decades. The law for their exemption expired last year, but the government continued to allow them not to serve. In the absence of a new legal basis for the exemption, the Supreme Court's ruling means the state must draft them. Ultra-Orthodox leaders see the exemptions as vital for preserving their traditions. The long-standing military waiver has sparked protests in recent months by Israelis angry that they are shouldering the risk of fighting the war in Gaza. Ultra-Orthodox demonstrators have taken to the streets, blocking roads and marching with signs and banners. The ultra-Orthodox community makes up 13% of Israel's 10 million population - a figure expected to climb due to their high birth rates.

     Blinken urges Israel's Gallant to make post-war plan

     Reuters Videos

     STORY: Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant arrived at the U.S. State Department for talks with top American diplomat Antony Blinken on Monday. The visit comes amid U.S. calls for a ceasefire in Gaza and for the development of a realistic post-war plan, according to State Department spokesperson Matthew Miller. "We have been quite consistent that for there to be an enduring defeat of Hamas, there needs to be a plan for what replaces them and what replaces them needs to be Palestinian-led governance. It needs to be realistic security plans. It needs to be realistic reconstruction plans. And that's what we continue to work towards with our partners in the region. And as we continue to push the government of Israel to properly consider." Washington has warned Israel that the absence of such a plan could trigger lawlessness and chaos as well as a comeback by Hamas in the enclave. After the meeting, Gallant didn't address this point with reporters but did say the alliance with the United States is "extremely important" to the future of Israel. He also met with advisors to President Joe Biden and CIA Director Bill Burns Monday in discussions he called "critical" as Israel deals with Gaza and escalating hostilities on Israel's border with Lebanon, where exchanges of fire with Hezbollah have stoked fears of wider conflict.   He's set to meet with Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin on Tuesday.

     Gazan cancer patients await medical evacuation

     Reuters Videos

     STORY: Nada al-Kanoo sits with her two young children in Khan Younis’ Nasser Hospital in the southern part of the Gaza Strip on Monday. Her son Amjad is suffering from malnutrition and Ahmed has testicular cancer. Originally from the north, Al-Kanoo says she has been trying to facilitate medical evacuation for some time now... and recently received a call telling her a transfer would go ahead. "I didn't believe it," she says about the call. "I said this is impossible, the Rafah crossing is closed and under siege. How can we get out?" The World Health Organization has been unable to carry out medical evacuations from Gaza since the closure of the Rafah crossing in early May. Through coordination with the World Health Organization (WHO), the two boys are to be transferred out of Gaza for medical treatment through the Kerem Shalom crossing. Doctor Ahmed al-Farra told Reuters that nearly 50,000 patients were in need of transfer. “Some of them malignant diseases - cancer - some of them metabolic diseases; some of them immune deficiency diseases and of course, some of them injured by the explosive injury that they got in the war.” Another Palestinian mother, Samira, has been told her daughter Jori will also be transferred out. Jori had to stop chemotherapy when the war began and now is one of many thousands who suffer from malnutrition. "It's the most difficult of situations to not be able to provide the necessary nutrition for a child. There is no food for her body, only canned food. There's no fruit to give her, or vegetables to get for her and if there is, it's all unimaginably expensive. So, thank God that she will be able travel to get medical treatment and eat more food than we have here.” A group of U.N.-led aid agencies estimates that around 7% of Gazan children may be acutely malnourished, compared with 0.8% before the Israel-Hamas conflict began on Oct. 7. :: Gaza City, Gaza :: June 23, 2024 Israel’s offensive has killed more than 37,400 people in the Hamas-ruled Palestinian territory, according to health authorities there. It launched its assault after Hamas fighters stormed across the border into southern Israel on Oct. 7, killing around 1,200 people and taking more than 250 people hostage, according to Israeli tallies.

     Israeli strike kills eight at Gaza aid center: witnesses

     Reuters Videos

     STORY: Eight Palestinians were killed on Sunday (June 23) in an Israeli airstrike on a building near Gaza City being used to distribute aid, according to witnesses. They said the strike hit part of an industrial college run by the U.N. Palestinian refugee agency UNRWA. Mohammed Tafesh, one of the witnesses, described how some were collecting waters and others were receiving coupons when the strike hit. He said they'd since been pulling people from the rubble, including one person who had been selling cold drinks and another who used to sell pastries. The Israeli military did not immediately respond to requests for comment. Juliette Touma, UNRWA's director of c ommunications, said the agency was looking into the details of the reported attack before providing more information. She said that since the beginning of the war, nearly 190 of their buildings had been hit - the vast majority of their facilities in Gaza. More than eight months into the conflict and Israel's advance is focused on two areas it is yet to seize. One is the area surrounding Deir al-Balah in the enclave's center, the other is Rafah in the south. Residents said on Sunday that Israeli tanks had advanced to the edge of the Mawasi displaced persons' camp in the northwest of Rafah amid fierce clashes with Hamas-led fighters. The Israeli military said it was continuing "intelligence-based, targeted operations" in the Rafah area and had located weapons stores and tunnel shafts, and killed Palestinian gunmen. The armed wings of Hamas and the Islamic Jihad movement said their fighters had attacked Israeli forces in Rafah with anti-tank rockets, mortar bombs and pre-planted explosive devices.

     Israeli forces strap Palestinian to jeep during raid

     Reuters Videos

     STORY: The Israeli military says it's investigating an incident where Israeli soldiers strapped a wounded Palestinian detainee to the hood of a military vehicle. It happened during an arrest raid in the occupied West Bank city of Jenin on Saturday, and was captured on video verified by Reuters. It shows the vehicle passing through two ambulances with Palestinian resident, Mujahed Azmi, on top. Eyewitness Raafat Azmi: "This is my cousin, Mujahed, he was wounded, and stayed here for about two to three hours, we were sitting here, and he was wounded in there, they (the Israeli army) put him on the hood of the jeep and then we were told that they handed him over to the governmental hospital." The Israeli military in a statement said Israeli forces were fired at and exchanged fire, wounding a suspect and apprehending him. According to the statement, the soldiers then violated military protocol when the suspect “was taken by the forces while tied on top of a vehicle." The Israeli military said "conduct of the forces in the video of the incident does not conform to the values" of the Israeli military. It added the individual was transferred to medics for treatment. Violence in the West Bank, already on the rise before the Israel-Hamas war in Gaza, has escalated since then, with frequent army raids on militant groups, rampages by Jewish settlers in Palestinian villages, and deadly Palestinian street attacks.
