IDF Retaliates with Strikes on Lebanon Following UN Vote Failure

Israel continues its offensive in Gaza, with airstrikes and shelling targeting various areas. The Gaza Health Ministry, controlled by Hamas, reports that at least 17,700 Palestinians have been killed and 48,780 wounded since the start of the conflict. The US has vetoed a UN Security Council resolution calling for a cease-fire, drawing criticism from Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas and Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan. The Houthis in Yemen threaten to attack vessels bound for Israel in the Red Sea unless more aid is allowed into Gaza. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vows to continue the war against Hamas, while the US approves an emergency sale of ammunition to Israel. The UN's World Food Program warns of a dire food shortage in Gaza, with people starving and in desperate need of supplies.
