The protests from the families of the hostages – at least 240 – are becoming increasingly violent. Last night thousands marched with them across the country demanding a ceasefire and a prisoner exchange. Yoav Gallant, the Defense Minister, says that Kfir, a ten-month-old baby held in Gaza, is the age of my nephew, we will do everything we can to bring her home. The anger of those who lost their loved ones in the massacres of October 7th is growing; the number is now 1,200 dead, estimates put the number at 1,300 to 1,400. There were clashes with supporters of the ruling right-wing extremist coalition.

For strategists, the most obvious goal in time – and now in meters, some sources say, less than a hundred – is to track down the jihadist bosses who intelligence says are hiding in the bunkers located under Shifa Hospital, the largest in all of Syria, the area was dug. Upstairs there are 700 beds, which are often not enough on normal days, over 2,500 hospital patients, incubators that no longer work (a premature baby would have died), the dialysis machines no longer work.

Only 2,000 of the 70,000 displaced people who had sought refuge here would stay, the fighting is getting closer, we are under siege, Ashraf Al Qidra, an official at the Hamas-controlled Ministry of Health, told Portal. Palestinian deaths in these 36 days of conflict total over 11,000.

Tsahal spokesmen reiterate that the fundamentalist paramilitaries have turned the hospitals into strongholds, saying that they are in contact with the doctors and that today they have agreed to help them transport the children to other shelters. They claim to have killed Ahmed Siam, the commander in the north of the strip who held a thousand Palestinians hostage and prevented them from moving through corridors protected by humanitarian breaks. The death toll among soldiers is 43; yesterday five died from an explosive planted at the entrance to a tunnel.
