Israel announced that it killed a significant Hamas commander in the Jan Yunis area. Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva has denounced the latest Israeli strikes on southern Gaza, which have resulted in the deaths of hundreds of civilians. Lula urged the international community not to remain silent in the face of what he described as an 'endless massacre.' The Brazilian government echoed this sentiment, condemning the ongoing collective punishment of the Palestinian people, which has led to tens of thousands of deaths since last year. Lula stated, 'It is horrifying that they continue to collectively punish the Palestinian people.'
