On Friday, new Israeli colonial measures were imposed in the occupied West Bank. Nearly 500 olive trees were uprooted in the central West Bank following the bulldozing of 70 dunums of land and the declaration of the area as a closed military zone.

Humanitarian and food supplies entering the Gaza Strip have sharply declined since the start of the Israeli-US war on Iran, with only about 10 percent of the needed aid reaching the Gaza Strip.
Ismail Al-Thawabta, Director-General of the Government Media Office in Gaza, said Israeli restrictions on border crossings have significantly limited the entry of aid trucks. Only 640 trucks have entered the enclave out of the 6,000 that were expected under existing arrangements.
Fuel deliveries have also been heavily affected, with only 1,081 fuel trucks allowed in out of 7,400 needed, about 14 percent of the required amount. Cooking gas has not been permitted to enter at all.

Approximately 45 members of the UK Parliament and House of Lords signed a letter urging Britain to issue a formal apology for the 1917 Balfour Declaration.

Among the signatories were Liberal Democrat MP Layla Moran, Labour MP Nadia Whittome, and Green Party MP Carla Denyer. This move follows a petition submitted to the British government in September of last year by Palestinian businessman Muneeb Al-Masri, calling for both an apology and reparations for Britain’s historical role in dispossessing Palestinians of their land.
