Israel Scrambles Combat Helicopters After “Aerial Threat” As Drones Hit Egypt, “481 Killed In Gaza”

An Israeli military surveillance drone crashed in the Zeitoun neighbourhood of Gaza City. The IDF said it had killed the commander of Hamas’s West Khan Younis Battalion, Madhat Mubasher and Ayser Mohammad Al-Amer, a commander in the Palestinian Islamic Jihad’s Jenin wing. The UN warned that “many more will die“ in Gaza from catastrophic shortages after nearly three weeks of bombardment by Israel. Gaza’s health ministry said 7,326 Palestinians had been killed in the Israeli airstrikes so far, including 3,038 children. Israeli army spokesperson Daniel Hagari said an “aerial threat” had been spotted in the Red Sea region, linking this to a projectile that had landed on Egyptian coastal territory there, injuring six people. A Hamas official said the group could not release the Israeli captives it was holding until a ceasefire was agreed. Israel updated the confirmed number of people held hostage in the Gaza Strip since the October 7 raids by Hamas to 229. #israel #gaza #palestine #hamas #westbank #idf #worldnews 0:00 - INTRODUCTION 0:38 - “481 KILLED IN 24 HOURS IN ISRAEL’S GAZA STRIKES“ 3:06 - DRONE STRIKE ON EGYPT TOWN “AERIAL THREAT” FROM RED SEA 4:26 - HAMAS SAYS NEEDS TIME TO LOCATE HOSTAGES n18oc_world n18oc_crux CRUX is your daily video news guide to the big events that are shaping our world.
