08:39⇢Gaza: War of Annihilation Continues
⌨Palestinian media continues to emphasize Israel's escalating "genocidal war" in Gaza on its 693rd day, reporting dozens of martyrs, wounded, and ongoing displacement, particularly in Gaza City (Al-Resalah, PIC, Al-Ayyam, Sama News). Israeli media acknowledges difficulties in occupying the city, with reports noting the skill of resistance fighters in Al-Zaytoun (Alwatan Voice, Felesteen News, Arabi21). Concurrently, Washington is critically viewed for prioritizing "day after" plans over ending the war (Maan News Agency, Palsawa News).
