While Muslims all over the world are celebrating Eid, bombs are still raining on people in Gaza. Dozens of people have been killed in this. This is the second consecutive time for the people of Gaza, when Eid is being celebrated amidst war. Pictures of people attending Eid-ul-Fitr prayers at the end of the holy month of Ramadan in Jabalia in the northern Gaza Strip have emerged. In this, they are offering prayers in the ruins after the mosques were destroyed by bombs. Families are not only struggling with the destruction caused by bombs, but they are also struggling with the obstacles in getting help. Israel’s bombing of the Gaza Strip has been going on since Sunday morning. Meanwhile, Israel has ordered the evacuation of the Rafah area of Gaza. After this, there is a fear that is Israel going to launch a major attack here?
The Israeli army has ordered the evacuation of most parts of Rafah on Monday. The army has ordered the Palestinian people to move towards Muwasi. This is a camp full of dirty tents in the coastal area. The order came during Eid-ul-Fitr. Israel launched a major operation on Rafah on the Egyptian border in May last year. This is the only gateway connecting Gaza to the outside world. Israel currently has 59 hostages in the custody of Hamas, of which 24 are estimated to be alive. Israel says that the attack will continue until all the hostages are returned.
Israel elects new chief of intelligence agency
Amid the Israel-Hamas war, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has appointed former naval commander Vice Admiral Eli Sharvit as the next head of Israel’s intelligence agency Shin Bet. The Israeli Prime Minister’s Office confirmed this on Sunday. He said that he will replace Ronen Bar. The cabinet voted to formally dismiss Ronen earlier this month. The office said that Sharvit oversaw complex operations against Hamas, Hezbollah and Iran.
Houthi rebels are attacking
Iran-backed Houthi rebels fired missiles at Israel on Sunday morning. The Israeli army says that its air defense intercepted the missiles fired from Yemen. The Israeli Defense Force wrote on its X account that sirens sounded in most parts of central Israel due to this attack. At the same time, the Houthis announced that they targeted Ben Gurion airport with a missile.
