The United Nations humanitarian aid agency says hundreds of thousands of people would be “at imminent risk of death” if Israel carries out a military assault in the southern Gaza city of Rafah. The city has become critical for humanitarian aid and is highly concentrated with displaced Palestinians. Leaders internationally have urged Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to be cautious about any incursion into Rafah. Overnight, seven people, including children, were killed in an Israeli airstrike on the city. The war has killed over 34,000 Palestinians in Gaza driven around 80% of the population of 2.3 million from their homes. In the U.S., students have been protesting for universities to separate themselves from any companies that are advancing Israel’s military efforts in Gaza.
Georgia Republicans reiterated their support for a forceful police response to campus protests over the Israel-Hamas war. Gov. Brian Kemp, before he signed laws related to policing, praised officers for “standing strong and maintaining order in the face of protests and disturbances on our college campuses.” State troopers have aided local and campus police in breaking up encampments and arresting protesters at Emory University in Atlanta and the University of Georgia in Athens. Emory’s president has since apologized for calling outside officers. State House Speaker Jon Burns, a fellow Republican, praised Kemp for ordering state troopers to not put up with any “foolishness.”
