"Blinken's Warning: Israel-Hamas Conflict Takes Toll on Civilians"

US Secretary of State Antony Blinken urges Israel to allow more humanitarian aid into Gaza, calls for a UN mission to assess the situation in northern Gaza, and dismisses a genocide case against Israel submitted by South Africa as "meritless." The International Criminal Court is investigating potential crimes against journalists in the Israel-Hamas war, while the World Health Organization expresses concern about the collapse of hospitals in southern Gaza. Meanwhile, German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock demands the 24-hour opening of the Rafah border crossing to allow more humanitarian supplies into Gaza.
