Nascent Yemen

Zionist occupation forces stationed at Jenin refugee camp have fired live ammunition at a diplomatic delegation as it was entering the camp to view the living conditions of the refugees.
The diplomats that visited the camp on Wednesday were from Austria, Brazil, Bulgaria, Canada, Chile, China, Egypt, France, India, Japan, Jordan, Lithuania, Mexico Morocco, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Russia, Sri Lanka, Spain, Turkey, the EU, and the UK, along with representatives from several other countries and journalists accompanying them. 
The Palestinian Authority’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates had organized the visit for the international community to witness the Israeli regime’s ongoing aggression against the Palestinians in the Occupied West Bank.
The Ministry had arranged a similar visit to Tulkarem city and the refugee camp in the northern West Bank last week.
WAFA news agency reported that the delegation wanted to enter the camp from the eastern gate, where the regime has installed an iron gate, when the soldiers fired live ammunition directly and heavily at the diplomats and their entourage.
In a statement, the Ministry said, “This aggressive act constitutes a flagrant and serious violation of the provisions of international law and the most basic rules of diplomatic relations stipulated in the 1961 Vienna Convention, which guarantees protection and immunity for diplomatic missions and delegations.”

After the incident, the delegation visited the Jenin Governorate headquarters and reviewed the situation in the camp and the city.
The camp governor, Mohammed Jarrar, explained in detail the city’s disastrous economic condition, the war’s impact on its facilities, and the destruction of infrastructure.
More importantly, he described the extremely inhumane circumstances under which 22,000 Palestinians have been forced to abandon their homes and live in the tyrannical conditions the Israeli regime has forced upon them.
Later, the Ministry condemned the assault by the occupation forces on the diplomatic delegation invited by the Palestinian Authority.
Since October 7, 2023, when the Israeli regime began its genocidal war against Gaza, the number of attacks by settlers and occupation forces on the Palestinians of the Occupied West Bank has increased dramatically.
The Israeli regime has also killed at least 1,000 Palestinians and abducted 7,000 in the occupied West Bank.

Al Manar report

Zionist settler colony leader Netanyahu says the regime plans to “take control of all” of the Gaza Strip, as his military launched a newly expanded offensive in the besieged territory.
In a video posted to his Telegram channel, Netanyahu said, “The fighting is intense and we are making progress. We will take control of all the territory of the Strip.”
“We will not give up,” he added, noting that the regime “must act in a way that cannot be stopped” in order to achieve this goal.
He noted that the decision to allow a small number of aid trucks into Gaza later on Monday, the first in nearly two months, was made to avoid international backlash.
“We must not let the population of Gaza sink into famine, both for practical and diplomatic reasons,” he said.
Netanyahu revealed that close allies, including pro-Zionist US senators, had called on him to allow some aid to avoid images of mass starvation, which could undermine international support.
“Our best friends in the world, senators who are passionate supporters of Israel, came to me and said they would provide all the assistance needed to achieve victory: weapons, backing for eliminating Hamas, and protection at the UN Security Council,” Netanyahu said.
“But there’s one thing they said they cannot support: images of mass starvation. ‘We cannot stand by you in that situation,’ they told me. So, in order to achieve victory, we must address that problem,” he added.

Backing Netanyahu’s decision, far-right finance minister Bezalel Smotrich said it will allow “our friends in the world to continue to provide us with an international umbrella of protection against the Security Council and the Hague Court.”
Israel launched the campaign of genocide in Gaza on October 7, 2023. It has killed more than 53,000 Palestinians there so far, according to the health ministry of Gaza.
In January, the Israeli regime was forced to agree to a ceasefire deal with Hamas given the regime’s failure to achieve any of its objectives, including the “elimination” of the Palestinian resistance movement or the release of captives.
The 42-day stage of the truce, which was marred by repeated Israeli violations, expired on March 1, but Israel is refraining from stepping into talks for the second stage of the agreement.
On March 18, the regime resumed the strikes on Gaza, breaking the nearly two-month-long ceasefire.
