The Israeli military began a ground offensive in Gaza City, the Israel Defense Forces said on Tuesday, with two IDF divisions moving toward the city. A third was expected to join them.
In images taken from the Israel-Gaza border on Tuesday, plumes of smoke could be seen rising above the city, which is the largest in the Gaza Strip. It was not immediately clear how many people remained on Tuesday in the city.
Qatar’s minister of state visited the International Criminal Court in the Hague “as part of the work of the team tasked with exploring legal avenues to respond,” to Israel’s strike on Doha, Qatar, earlier this month, the minister said in a post on X Wednesday.
“During the two meetings, I reaffirmed Qatar’s commitment to supporting the path of international justice and to ensuring accountability for perpetrators of crimes under international law—including wars crimes and acts of aggression —so as to prevent them from escaping punishment within the framework of international criminal law,” the minister said in the post.
