<h2>Flotilla interception sparks legal action</h2>Around 50 vessels were part of the Global Sumud Flotilla that departed Turkey in May for the besieged Palestinian territory. Israeli forces intercepted the activists in the Mediterranean, detained them and later took them to an Israeli prison before their expulsion.&nbsp;The latest Turkish action comes amid a sharp deterioration in relations between Ankara and Jerusalem since the Hamas-led October 7, 2023 attack and the subsequent Gaza war. Turkey has hosted Hamas leaders, while President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has repeatedly criticised Israel.

At a time when the Indian Government extended its unconditional support to Israel, as it continues to massacre innocent civilians in Gaza, Indian retired justice Srinivasan Muralidhar is making headlines globally as Chair of the United Nations Independent International Commission of Inquiry on the Occupied Palestinian Territory, including East Jerusalem, and Israel, for its latest report on war crimes. The report submitted shocking yet widely known findings that Israel is deliberately targeting children and causing “unprecedented death, injury and trauma” in its ongoing genocide against Palestinians. The report concluded that 20,179 children were killed since the war started on October 7, 2023 and roughly 30 per cent of all fatalities. It targets children to weaken demographic vitality and the capacity of the Palestinian people to exercise their right to self-determination.

That move was designed to bypass a 2021 decision by Ben &amp; Jerry’s independent board, which had announced it would halt sales in occupied Palestinian territories because doing so clashed with the company's progressive values.The decision triggered a protracted legal battle between the brand's founders, its board, and Unilever.

Last year, Cohen announced plans for a separate watermelon-flavoured ice cream to promote peace in Palestine, alleging that Unilever had blocked similar corporate initiatives.

<h2>India complicit in Gaza Genocide</h2>India is Israel's second-largest merchandise trading partner in Asia, with $3.75 billion in bilateral trade for FY2025. India is the largest buyer of Israeli weapons in the period 2020-24, accounting for approximately 34 per cent of all arms exports of Israel. In FY2025, arms and ammunition, and parts purchased by India from Israel accounted for $135.96 million. Indian firms had supplied Israel with rockets and explosives since the beginning of the Israeli genocide. India, along with Europe and the US, is fueling the Israeli Defence Industry, which is committing genocide in Palestine. India is now seeking an FTA with Israel, along with a massive volume of trade in defence equipment and intelligence tools.&nbsp;Also Read: <a href="https://www.wionews.com/world/modi-israel-visit-security-agreement-fta-pegasus-row-1771921416317">Israeli envoy: Israel will give India access to sensitive security technologies</a>Historically, India had always supported the two-state solution. In 2017, Narendra Modi became the first Indian PM to visit Israel. In 2026, PM Narendra Modi will become the first Indian Prime Minister to address the Knesset. Israel has killed more than 75,000 people in Gaza and flattened the strip with indiscriminate bombing. International Court of Justice, in its landmark advisory in July 19, 2024, has urged all member nations to take active steps to prevent trading with Israel. The court and subsequent judgments urged all member nations to refrain from engaging in military trade, trade involving the occupied Palestinian territory.&nbsp;Modi's visit to Israel comes just days after India, along with 100 other nations, condemned the de facto annexation of the West Bank. Even though reports suggest India hesitated to put its name in the condemnation. Several Western leaders have visited Israel following the October 7 attack by Hamas, but very few Global South leaders have been to Israel. In fact, Modi is the first head of state to visit Israel since Argentine President Javier Milei in February 2024.

Since the US brokered a ceasefire on October 10, Israel has continued to bomb across Gaza. Approximately 1500 buildings were razed to the ground, according to an investigation by the BBC of the satellite images of Israel-occupied Gaza. The photos show that the entire neighbourhood had been flattened by the Israel Defence Forces.&nbsp;

The radar images before and after the ceasefire were traced using a change detection algorithm to analyse the destruction, and then they were manually counted. The BBC report suggests that the real number can be more than what is being projected, as visuals of some of the areas were not available.&nbsp;It is hard to be conclusive from the satellite images, especially when the point of view is from above. However, these buildings did not have visible damage or signs like rubble or changes to their outlines. These images show damage to the gardens, trees and some small orchards in Khan Younis and Rafa.<h2>Israel claims the damages are in line with the deal</h2>Eitan Shamir, the ex-head of the National Security Doctrine Department in the Israeli Ministry of Strategic Affairs, suggested that Israel is not violating the terms and these bombings are done in the part beyond the yellow line and do not implicate the deal. The ceasefire deal signed by Israel and Hamas, brokered by the US and supported by Egypt, Qatar, and Turkiye, has called for the immediate cessation of &nbsp;“all military operations, including aerial and artillery bombardment.” Israel maintains that its actions are in line with the deal, such as damaging the &nbsp;“terror infrastructure, including tunnels,” as required by the agreement. Moreover, the BBC report suggests that the IDF is preparing for further operations, as they feel it is unlikely Hamas will follow through with the second phase of the agreement. IDF also claims that there had been attempts from Hamas to infiltrate beyond the yellow line.&nbsp;&nbsp;

BBC satellite analysis shows over 1,500 buildings in Gaza destroyed after the US-brokered ceasefire. Israel claims the bombings comply with the deal.

"It's really bizarre, watching the movie now and seeing everything in retrospect, after feeling like I've been through that forest," she said.
