Red Cross warns that the identities of thousands of Palestinians in Gaza may never be identified —— The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) has warned that thousands of Palestinians under the rubble in Gaza may never be identified due to advanced decomposition and the sheer volume of destruction. After two years of Israel's genocide targeting the besieged population, UN data reveals that three-quarters of the enclave's buildings have been destroyed, leaving behind a staggering 61.5 million tons of debris. This apocalyptic wasteland is 20 times greater than the total rubble generated by all Israeli aggressions in Gaza since 2008. Recovery efforts for the estimated 8,000 bodies still trapped beneath the ruins remain severely crippled. Despite a ceasefire being in place since December, the Israeli occupation continues to block the entry of excavators and heavy machinery. Rescue teams and Civil Defense personnel are forced to clear mountains of concrete using only their bare hands, shovels, and basic tools, while families accuse Israeli military bulldozers of intentionally displacing bodies to erase evidence of war crimes. The systematic denial of equipment means vital identifying evidence like fingerprints, dental records, and personal belongings is rapidly being lost to time and environmental decay. There are thousands of Palestinians in Gaza who are still missing, and their families remain in limbo, unsure if their loved ones are alive, dead, or trapped within the interrogation chambers of the Israeli prison system.

Lebanon files formal complaint with UN over Israel's use of cancerous herbicide, violating Chemical Weapons Convention —— Lebanon has filed a formal complaint with the UN Security Council accusing the Israeli military of carrying out a chemical warfare campaign targeting agricultural lands near the Blue Line, Lebanon's Foreign Ministry confirmed. The diplomatic escalation follows a February aerial operation where Israeli aircraft sprayed southern Lebanese border villages, including Aita al-Shaab, with extreme concentrations of the toxic weedkiller glyphosate. Laboratory analysis of soil and plant samples from the targeted zones revealed chemical concentrations reaching a staggering 22,750 micrograms per gram—more than 11,000 times the standard levels used in conventional farming. The Lebanese government explicitly categorized the border spraying as a deliberate war crime intended to systematically poison the environment, destroy local livelihoods, and render entire border communities uninhabitable. The complaint states that the deployment of high-density toxins constitutes a flagrant breach of international humanitarian law and the Chemical Weapons Convention. UN officials have voiced serious alarms over the long-term impact of the chemical assault, confirming that the operation threatens the health of civilians, risks permanently ruining vital farmland, and violates UN Resolution 1701.
