Palestinian child martyred, others wounded by shrapnel from Israeli shelling in southern Gaza
A Palestinian child was martyred after succumbing to wounds sustained from a targeted Israeli occupation drone in Khan Younis, southern Gaza Strip.WAFA news agency cited medical sources as saying that a drone dropped a bomb on a group of Palestinian citizens in the Qizan Abu Rashwan area south of Khan Younis, resulting in the child being hit and killed by shrapnel instantly before reaching the hospital, as well as wounding others.Meanwhile, medical sources in Gaza reported a worsening shortage of laboratory testing materials in laboratories and blood banks. The deficit reached 86% of the needs, while the stock of many of these materials have depleted.The same sources explained that blood gas testing materials have completely run out in the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital laboratory, while the remaining quantities in other hospitals are sufficient for only a few days.The sources warned that the continuation of this shortage threatens medical follow-up procedures for patients, hinders surgical operations, and directly affects emergency and intensive care cases.

US President Donald Trump announced that he intends to review an Iranian proposal aimed at ending the war, while expressing doubts about the likelihood of accepting it.In a post on the Truth Social platform, Trump said he would soon examine the plan submitted by Iran, but voiced reservations about its viability, noting that Tehran had not yet paid a sufficient price for its actions.And at a press conference in West Palm Beach, he said he had reviewed the broad outlines of Iran’s response to the US proposal and expected to receive the final version later. Regarding military options, Trump did not rule out resuming operations against Iran, saying that such a move could happen, and suggesting that Tehran would need a long time to rebuild its capabilities if the confrontation continued.He also referred to what he described as a lack of clarity in Iran’s leadership structure, noting that the new supreme leader had not appeared since the outbreak of the war.On the domestic front, Trump called on the Democratic Party not to obstruct US actions toward Iran, describing current blockade measures as relatively moderate. This comes as Trump continues to reject Iranian offers to advance stalled negotiations, maintaining his position of imposing a tight blockade on Iranian ports. At the same time, Iran has responded by closing the Strait of Hormuz.The Iranian Fars News Agency reported Saturday that Tehran had submitted a 14-point response to the U.S. proposal to end the war, outlining its framework for ending the conflict and conveying it to the Pakistani side. According to sources cited by Fars, the response to Washington’s nine-point proposal included a clear roadmap for ending the war, along with an emphasis on Iran’s red lines. It added that the message was delivered through a mediator after passing through the usual decision-making processes within Iran’s relevant institutions and obtaining the necessary approvals.Meanwhile, the Tasnim News Agency reported, citing its sources, that Tehran responded to a US proposal that included a request for a two-month ceasefire, stressing that issues should be resolved within 30 days and that the focus should be on ending the war rather than extending the truce.Two days ago, Trump said he did not intend to seek approval from the United States Congress to continue any military action against Iran after the expiration of the 60 days allowed under the Constitution for military operations without legislative authorization.

The British Department for Transport announced that airlines will be allowed to combine passengers from different flights onto fewer aircraft as part of temporary measures aimed at reducing jet fuel consumption.The department explained that the new amendment allows for the merging of flights on routes that have more than one flight per day to the same destination, allowing passengers to be transferred to similar flights if there are vacant seats, instead of operating flights that may be not full or are threatened with cancellation.The move aims to reduce fuel waste resulting from operating aircraft with fewer passengers than their operational capacity, as well as to enhance the operational efficiency of airlines.The Department for Transport confirmed that these amendments also aim to enhance the stability of flight schedules and give travelers greater confidence in the regularity of travel.These measures come at a time when warnings are increasing about a possible shortage of jet fuel as the holiday season approaches, amid supply chain disruptions linked to geopolitical tensions and their impact on fuel supplies from the Middle East.
