Hopefully, some #Pinoys made it through in this batch. Many Americans, French citizens and some Canadians reportedly reached #Egypt
At least 320 foreign nationals and dependents, 100 Egyptians, and 262 Jordanians were evacuated from Gaza through the Rafah border crossing today, Reuters reported, citing an Egyptian security source and Jordan’s foreign ministry. However, only four injured Gazans were allowed through the crossing into Egypt, according to a medical source. Evacuations through the Rafah crossing resumed on Monday after it was closed on Saturday and Sunday following an Israeli strike on an ambulance in Gaza.

Their statements prompted protests in Tel Aviv by hostages families.

Scepticism and anticipation among Palestinians gathered near Ofer Prison | Charles Stratford (Reporting near Ofer prison, occupied West Bank)

[There are] hundreds if not thousands of people who have gathered on a hill overlooking the Ofer Prison in expectation of these 39 women and minors that are going to be – in theory – brought here by the Israelis on buses.
We’ve seen at least one bus leave one of those jails in northern Israel a few hours ago. People have begun to light bonfires here, very excited about this prisoner-captive swap. But there are so many questions that remain unanswered. There are, as you can imagine, years of distrust [and] mistreatment at the hands of the Israeli military here in the occupied territories, so people are still sceptical as to whether this [release] could happen.

MeToo, for Israeli victims too: Gaza war drives wedge between French feminists

French feminist groups have come under fire for purportedly turning a blind eye to the sexual violence unleashed on Israeli women during the October 7 attacks by Hamas, echoing the anger levelled at rights organisations elsewhere.

The decision prompted demands from the families of hostages for an explanation, saying that they were “shocked” by it.

Paul, who until October worked on the US’s foreign arms transfers, said he was concerned by the expedited process as it could bypass the state department’s pre-transfer controls. “There’s no review of human rights, there’s no review of regional balance, there’s none of the conventional arms transfer policy review that would normally happen,” he said.

The warship was originally built half a century ago, before the Iranian Revolution of 1979, but was overhauled and had new combat systems installed four years ago to rejoin the naval force of the army, separate from the naval force of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corp. The news comes as state media reported Iran’s security chief, Ali Akbar Ahmadian, held a meeting with top Houthi negotiator Mohammad Abdulsalam. It is unclear where or when the meeting took place, but Iranian media quoted Ahmadian as saying Tehran praised the Houthis for supporting Palestinians and standing up to Israel.

#Israel will appear at #InternationalCourtOfJustice: Israeli media

Israel “will not boycott” proceedings launched by #SouthAfrica at the International Court of Justice (ICJ), Israel’s National Security Adviser Tzachi Hanegbi has said, the Israeli news site Ynet is reporting.

https://www.aljazeera.com/news/liveblog/2024/1/2/israel-hamas-war-live-almost-22000-palestinians-killed-by-israel-in-gaza
Israel is “a long-standing signatory to the Genocide Convention”, Hanegbi told Ynet. “We will participate and refute the absurd accusation that amounts to blood libel,” he added. “The Jewish people have experienced genocide more profoundly than any other nation,” Hanegbi told Ynet, “with six million of our people brutally slaughtered”. Hanegbi described the events of October 7 as a “similar cruelty”, adding that “this time we have the capability to defend ourselves against those seeking our destruction,” Ynet reported. On Friday, South Africa filed a case at the ICJ accusing Israel of crimes of genocide against Palestinians in Gaza.
