IDF conducts raids in West Bank

The escalation in the West Bank “goes hand in hand with Gaza war”, says the Palestine Liberation Organization’s Wasel Abu Yousef after five Palestinians were killed by Israeli forces on January 14 in the occupied territory.

Gaza has been under a telecommunications blackout for more than 48 hours as Paltel says two of its employees were killed while trying to restore services, Al Jazeera reports.

US attacks on Yemen will not stop Houthis from targeting Israel-linked ships in the Red Sea, says Houthi spokesperson Mohammed Abdulsalam.

At least 23,968 people have been killed and more than 60,582 wounded in Israeli attacks on Gaza since October 7. The death toll in Israel from the October 7 Hamas attacks stands at 1,139.
