International scrutiny mounts

In addition to these developments, Israeli forces have faced mounting international scrutiny. Reports surfaced of Israeli troops opening fire on a UN World Food Programme (WFP) convoy in central Gaza earlier in the week, despite the convoy having received prior clearance from Israeli occupation authorities. The WFP condemned the attack, describing it as "unacceptable" and calling for improved security conditions to allow aid operations to continue safely. Fortunately, none of the WFP staff were injured, though 16 bullets reportedly struck the convoy.

Meanwhile, Israeli soldiers are also facing legal challenges abroad, with 12 war crimes investigations initiated since October 2023 in countries including Brazil, Sri Lanka, and Belgium. The Israeli military continues to advise soldiers under investigation to leave these countries to avoid legal repercussions.
