In Gaza, Israeli attacks killed at least 41 Palestinians over the past 24 hours as Israel’s military announced a major new ground offensive. Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz said his forces will seize large areas of Gaza for so-called security zones. The announcement came as Palestinians face widespread food insecurity with Israel’s total blockade of the Gaza Strip continuing for a 31st day. On Tuesday, Gaza’s residents were unable to find bread after all of the territory’s bakeries, including 25 run by the World Food Programme, shut down operations.
