In a talk on the radio, a person from Israel’s government says that Israel may use a big bomb on Gaza.

The leader of Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu, says that this is not true. Israel does not want to hurt people who are not fighting. This is a law among countries which fight with each other. The first person later says that he is not serious about the bomb.

Right now, many bombs are falling on Gaza. The Israeli army is getting ready to go into Gaza City. The group called Hamas says that more than 10,000 people are dead. The situation is getting worse. Jordan sends help to the sick people in Gaza. The US and others ask Israel to stop fighting for some time. But Israel says no.

About 100,000 people gathered in central London to show their support for Palestine and call for an end to Israel’s bombardment of Gaza.

This demonstration followed a recent terror attack by Hamas and Israel’s response. Protesters held signs with slogans like ‘Freedom for Palestine’ and ‘Stop bombing Gaza’.

The Metropolitan police estimated that around 100,000 participants had joined the rally by 2 pm. They marched through central London, reaching Whitehall by 3 pm, and most of the crowd had dispersed by 5 pm. Ten arrests were made during the event, primarily related to offenses involving fireworks, public order, and assaulting an emergency service worker.

The gathering coincided with the opening of the Rafah border crossing, allowing limited humanitarian aid to enter Gaza. However, more aid is still needed for Gaza’s population, which has been facing severe hardship.
