All telecommunications in Gaza have been interrupted for the fourth time since the war began on October 7.

“We regret to announce a total interruption of fixed telecommunications and internet services in the Gaza Strip due to the continuing aggression,” read a statement from Paltel, the Palestinian telecommunications company. The technical teams, he added, "are working to restore services despite the dangerous conditions on the ground".

Meanwhile, the death toll from the aerial bombing that hit the Maghazi refugee camp on Christmas Day has risen to 106. And Israeli military operations continue in the Strip, as do clashes in the West Bank and exchanges of missiles and artillery between Israel and Hezbollah.

Today Israeli artillery shells hit the upper floors of the Palestinian Red Crescent headquarters in Khan Yunis, in the southern sector of the Gaza Strip, causing some victims among the displaced people inside. Thousands of displaced people had found shelter in the building in question.

The Ministry of Health in the Gaza Strip said that at least 21 thousand people have died in the Palestinian enclave since October 7, with almost 55 thousand injured.

In a speech to the Parliamentary Committee on Security and Defense, Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant said today that Israel is attacked on seven fronts, and that it has already reacted on six of them. «We were attacked - he noted - from Gaza, Lebanon, Syria, the West Bank, Iraq, Yemen and Iran. We reacted and operated against six of those fronts,” he said, without however mentioning which of them was the seventh. «I want to say it explicitly: anyone who works against us represents a potential target. There is no immunity for anyone,” he added.
