Israel continues bombing of Gaza as US urges protection of civilians | BBC News
The IDF says it is shifting the focus of its offensive to southern Gaza on a third day of renewed fighting.
The Israeli military says it is targeting Hamas command centres, weapons storage and naval forces after its ceasefire with Hamas fell apart on Friday.
The US defence secretary said Israel has a right to defend itself, but it has a “moral responsibility” to protect civilians.
Residents of Khan Younis yesterday said the southern city has experienced its heaviest bombardment since the start of the war.
Hundreds of thousands of Palestinians have sought shelter in the area, after being told to flee the north of the territory, which was Israel’s main target in the early stages of the war

The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.
The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.
“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.
In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.
He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.
Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.
Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.
The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.

Explosions have been heard near two Iranian port cities, Bandar Abbas and Bushehr, state media has reported.
It comes after another night of strikes between the US and Iran, with Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps saying it hit two UAE tankers in the Strait of Hormuz and targeted US facilities in Jordan and Bahrain.
The UAE called the attack “brazen”, adding that an Indian crew member was killed and eight others were injured.
Meanwhile, the US military says it completed strikes on targets aimed at degrading “Iran’s ability to attack commercial shipping” – Iranian state media reports three people were killed.

The US military said it was carrying out a new wave of strikes on targets in Iran. It said the aim of the attacks was to degrade Iran’s ability to attack shipping in the strait of Hormuz. It came ass the US Navy resumed its blockade of Iran’s ports.
Iran said that control of the strait of Hormuz was required for its national security and it will exercise sovereignty over the key shipping lane, whatever the cost.
President Trump announced that he was scrapping a plan he had announced a day earlier, for placing a 20% toll or tariff on all cargos passing through the strait of Hormuz.

BBC…..
Yesterday and today your reporting in the UK about how terrible the bombing in Gaza is and you pushing this view ….
Let me tell you what is terrible.
It is terrible that Israel has had rockets fired into its land for years! They have been terrorised by Hamas FOR YEARS!
What else is terrible is the Sexual Violence against the young girls and women during the massacre oct 7th.
What’s terrible is the SLAUGHTER against their communities! Men boys and children the Granada’s thrown into the bomb shelters with two boys and their father.
I don’t know where Jeremy Bowens sense and moral compass is but he need to repent and FIND one.
What done you understand about this terrorist organisation? They are disgusting lower than the lowest of humanity.
Gaza is a sea pit of evil.
Jeremy Bowen said Israel can stop this, no they can’t they MUST remove the threat.
What could stop the bombing though is that Hamas can release the Hostages and surrender.
You BBC and Jeremy Bowen are sick and you need to get on your knees before a Holy God.
Israel you do what you need to do. Thank you for taking more care than any other army has had to do in warning and protecting the civilians as much as possible of course civilians if they care for their lives should listen and move when told.
BBC we can see your bias towards Evil and I am glad Jeremy Bowen is not my father.
God is with you Israel against This Evil.
I am against you BBC, Jeremy Bowen and Evil.
Israel 🇮🇱 millions and millions probably billions are with you don’t let BBC let you think the general population believe like they do.
Everyone knows terrorising, kidnap, murder, rape, torture is AGAINST THE LAW. Hamas and genocide is wrong and you get them every last one of those who did this and my prayers are backing you up all the way.
BBC are a DISGRACE

Hamas and the UN must leave Gaza.
The UN is a problem. They allow Hamas to bring in weapons and use UN schools as a rocket launched.
The UN is working with Hamas to destabilize the Middle East.

Two schools in Israel were hit by a Hamas missile, a hospital in Israel was hit by four missiles. We haven't heard a single report from you about it. But when a Gaza hospital is hit by a Jihad missile, we immediately hear about it and you blame Israel. Hypocrisy and disgrace, shame on you

Once again, the descendants of the colonizers are blaming the indigenous people of Palestine for rejecting occupation, and as a result for rejecting that, a genocide,
just as the colonialists did in Australia and North America against the indigenous people. This catastrophe was caused by the colonizer who brought settlers in and
given land that neither of them did own, and now they give us lectures in living in peace with occupation and apartheid.

can't stand it. Every time I watch the news, I see children being killed, it hurts my heart.. Why is Israel so cruel…everyone is killed, even people and small children, even babies… whatever your reasons are, it's just an alibi to control the remaining land of Palestine.. you are the cruelest invaders on the face of the earth..!! you don't reflect on the holocaust incident, in fact you used that incident to expel and kill the Palestinian people for years. You are crueler than the Nazis ..!!using religious propaganda for vile purposes.. When the time comes for you to lose, I'm sure… no country will give you a place…!!
