Israel suspends commercial shipments into Gaza amid worsening hospital shortages and expanding settler activity in the West Bank.

The humanitarian crisis across Palestinian territories continues to deepen as Israeli authorities suspend commercial shipments into the Gaza Strip. The Israeli military body coordinating activities in Gaza, COGAT, announced the halt on commercial goods, cutting off a key supply chain for food and shelter supplies ahead of winter.

In hospitals across Gaza, medical personnel face severe shortages of effective antibiotics, leaving critically injured children unable to heal amid rat-infested displaced persons camps. Meanwhile, Gaza City remains under ongoing bombardment and military operations.

In the occupied West Bank, media reports highlight expanding Israeli settler outposts using livestock grazing to claim land and displace local Palestinian communities.
