- Israeli far-right ministers Itamar Ben Gvir and Bezalel Smotrich opposed aid resumption, while civilians faced intense fighting and worsening humanitarian shortages.
- UN agencies report Gaza’s two million people face starvation, with only nine aid trucks cleared to enter, which the UN called ‘‘a drop in the ocean of what is urgently needed.’’
- International criticism mounts as Israel’s partial aid resumption meets condemnation, and Netanyahu signals openness to a deal including ending fighting and hostage release.
