Her only crime was being Lebanese.
Nour Jamal Daoui engineer, daughter, dreamer was wiped out today by an Israeli airstrike in central Beirut.
Not Hezbollah.
Not a militant.
Just a civilian.
This is what “precision strikes” look like.
This is why we say never again for anyone.
Rest in power, Nour. The world is watching.
According to Ismail Al-Thawabta, Director General of the Government Media Office in Gaza, Israeli occupation forces exploited the international focus on the Iran war to continue violations against Gaza’s population, showing clear disregard for efforts and agreements aimed at maintaining the ceasefire.
He stated that over the 39 days, Israeli occupation forces committed 434 violations of the ceasefire agreement as part of a systematic policy aimed at undermining any state of calm.
These violations resulted in the killing of 104 Palestinians and the injury of 341 others, reflecting a continued pattern of direct targeting of civilians.
On the humanitarian level, Al-Thawabta noted that only 4,999 aid trucks were allowed into Gaza out of 23,400 that were supposed to enter, representing a compliance rate of just 21%.
He also revealed that only 625 travelers were permitted to leave Gaza out of 7,800, a mere 8%, describing this as a serious violation of freedom of movement.
Al-Thawabta emphasized that these figures collectively demonstrate that Israel has not genuinely adhered to the terms of the ceasefire, but has instead used it as a cover to continue its violations. He called for firm international action to ensure compliance, halt these violations immediately, and lift restrictions imposed on the Gaza Strip.
Israel on Wednesday launched its heaviest bombardment of Lebanon in more than a month of war with Iran-backed Hezbollah, even as a U.S.-Israeli cease-fire with Iran took effect.
The sharp escalation — more than 100 airstrikes in the space of just 10 minutes — punctuated an announcement by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel that Lebanon would be excluded from the truce with Iran.
Shortly after lunchtime, Israeli fighter jets pummeled the Lebanese capital, Beirut, and other parts of the country, many of the strikes hitting densely populated areas without warning. Residents had no time to flee as missiles rained down on crowded neighborhoods that some once considered safe.
At least 112 people were killed and about 840 wounded in the attacks, according to Lebanon’s health ministry, making it one of the deadliest days of this war.
