1. Large explosion seen from Southern Israel, overlooking Gaza Strip
STORYLINE:
A large explosion was seen on Wednesday on the Gaza skyline from southern Israel.
It comes as Israel’s military said on Wednesday it will call up 60,000 reservists ahead of an expanded military operation in Gaza City.
Many residents have chosen to stay despite the danger, fearing nowhere is safe in a territory facing shortages of food, water and other necessities.
More than 62,122 people have been killed during Israel’s offensive, Gaza’s Health Ministry said on Monday.
The ministry is part of the Hamas-run government and staffed by medical professionals.
The ministry does not say how many of the dead were civilians or combatants, but it said women and children make up around half of them.
In addition, 154 adults have died from malnutrition-related causes since late June, when the ministry began counting such deaths, and 112 children have died from malnutrition-related causes since the war began.
