The Palestinian health Ministry announced on tuesday that over 5,000 people had died in Gaza as a result of two weeks of airstrikes, as the Israel-Hamas conflict reached its 17th day. 1400 people have died in israel so far, and more than 200 hostages were abducted during the attack on october 7. There have been 6,400 deaths overall.

Two Israeli women who were among the more than 200 captives held captive since the battle began on october 7 were freed, according to a statement released by Hamas on Monday. The third and fourth captives to be released were these women. Barack Obama, in an uncommon move for a former US president, when it came to international policy issues, sent a formal warning to israel, advising against taking too many civilian lives in their fight against Hamas.

The health ministry of the Palestinian enclave has acknowledged that late on monday night, the Israeli force attacked a Hamas facility in a Gaza refugee camp. Many people were killed in the attack, according to reports. The Israeli military made it clear that it will keep up its "unrelenting attacks" to destroy Hamas. According to Lieutenant General Herzi Halevi, Chief of Staff, israel has no intention of reducing the number of attacks it conducts on the heavily populated Gaza Strip.

Today is the UN Security Council's monthly meeting on the Israeli-Palestinian issue. Ministers are on their way to New York, where the united states is pressing for the passage of a resolution denouncing violence against civilians and assaults by Hamas in israel, but also affirming Israel's right to self-defense.
