Indonesia expressed readiness to join an international force in Gaza to help maintain a ceasefire, while firmly rejecting normalization with Israel or disarming resistance factions.

Palestinian approval is required, and Indonesia opposes demographic changes or displacement of Palestinians.
Germany’s top court rejected a case by a Palestinian man seeking to stop German tank parts exports to Israel after his wife and child were martyred in Israeli strikes on Gaza.

Gaza’s Government Media Office condemned Israel’s repeated violations of the ceasefire, stating that over 1,620 breaches since October 10 have led to hundreds of civilian deaths and restricted aid entry. It warned of a growing humanitarian crisis due to shelter denial and a devastated health system. Since February 2, only 255 Palestinians have exited via the partially reopened Rafah Crossing.
At least seven Palestinians were martyred in ongoing Israeli strikes across Gaza since last night, despite a ceasefire agreement. Medical sources reported casualties in central and western Gaza, including women and children. Israel also continues to block humanitarian aid from entering the enclave.
Doctors Without Borders warned that banning its operations in Gaza could cut a vital lifeline, as it provides 20% of beds, one-third of births, and 800,000 consultations a year. Israel’s decision followed the group’s refusal to submit its local staff list. Over 15 MSF staff members have been killed since the war began in October 2023.
UNICEF warned that children in Gaza remain at deadly risk despite the ceasefire. At least 100 children have been killed since it began, while health and education systems are collapsing.
