BBC News (UK) coverage of the Rafah Massacre is, yet again, worded like exactly like a Netanyahu press release. Shameful, spineless and pathetic.

This is a great recap of the #ICJ Order in #SouthAfrica v #Israel by Adil Haque at Just Security, especially his breakdown of the three possible readings of the key measure on a halt to the military offensive in #Rafah .

Hamas announced it has captured a number of Israeli soldiers in Jabalya, where according to Israel the Qassam Brigades have been (repeatedly) dismantled. Israel denies any are missing. Hamas published a video that appears to confirm its claims. We'll find out soon who is lying.

The Biden administration’s Middle East strategy in a picture:

Abu Obeida’s statement about Hamas’ ambush of IDF troops inside one of its tunnels, and the killing and capture of a number of them, has dire implications for Netanyahu:
