"Gaza War: Devastation, Diplomatic Fallout, and a Doctor's Protest"

The US is actively preparing for a potential regional attack by Iran targeting Israeli or American assets in response to an Israeli strike in Damascus that killed top Iranian commanders, while the Norwegian foreign minister expressed frustration within NATO over Israel's actions in Gaza. The World Health Organization completed a complex mission delivering medical aid to hospitals in northern Gaza, and the US has no plans for an independent investigation into the Israeli strike that killed seven aid workers. The Palestinian ambassador to the UN accused Israel of deliberately targeting the aid convoy, and Hamas rejected Israel's latest counterproposal in ceasefire talks. German Foreign Minister Baerbock urged Israel to quickly open planned aid routes into Gaza.
