Thailand urges Israel to relocate workers after rocket strike
Picture
Thailand on Thursday urged Israel to relocate 4,000 Thai nationals working near the battle-scarred Gaza strip after one of its citizens was killed.

Israeli police said a farm laborer, Narakorn Kittiyongkul, died on Wednesday when a projectile fired from Gaza struck the greenhouse where he was working in the southern part of the country.

He joined a soaring death toll from 17 days of conflict which has claimed more than 700 Palestinians so far and prompted frantic diplomatic efforts to forge a truce led by the US and United Nations.

The Thai Foreign Ministry said its embassy in Tel Aviv had advised its citizens to stop working in the area near Gaza.

"The Thai Embassy has contacted the Israeli Foreign Ministry and employers to ask them to relocate 4,000 Thai workers in agriculture estates near the Gaza strip immediately and unconditionally to safe areas 10 to 20 kilometers (6-12 miles) away," ministry spokesman Sek Wannamethee told reporters in Bangkok.

"But we will not evacuate our workers from Israel yet," he added.

Thousands of overseas workers, many from Southeast Asia, work on Israeli farms and in factories.

Israeli air strikes and military incursions into Gaza have battered the densely populated enclave, leaving more than 700 dead.

Gaza-based rights groups say at least 80 percent of the victims are civilians, including women and children.

Israel says over 30 of its soldiers have died since it began ground operations on July 17.

Israel says it is targeting the Islamist Hamas movement which has fired hundreds of rockets into Israel over recent months. The group launched the attacks in response to a major Israeli offensive across the West Bank that began in June and left 10 Palestinians dead, more than 130 injured, and more than 1,000 in prison.

US Secretary of State John Kerry and UN chief Ban Ki-moon held talks in Jerusalem on Wednesday in a bid to secure a ceasefire, but so far Hamas has rejected any truce without the lifting of Israel's eight-year blockade on Gaza.

Iran leader urges Palestinians to bring fight to West Bank
Picture
Iran's supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei urged Palestinians Wednesday to keep fighting Israel and to extend the conflict from Gaza to the occupied West Bank.

"The only way to deal with this savage regime is to continue resistance and armed struggle and extend it to the West Bank," the official IRNA news agency quoted Khamenei as saying.

Iran, which does not recognize Israel, is a supporter of the Palestinian Islamist groups Hamas and Islamic Jihad that have been at the forefront of the fighting in Gaza.

Israel has killed more than 700 Palestinians in the assault on Gaza, the vast majority of whom were civilians, while Palestinian militants have killed 34 Israelis, 32 of whom were soldiers.

The West Bank and Gaza Strip have been under Israeli military occupation since 1967.

Hamas says Gaza truce talks 'positive'
Picture
A senior Hamas official said on Wednesday there had been progress in negotiations to end the Gaza conflict but that the Palestinian militant group needed detailed guarantees that Israel would ease its blockade of the enclave.

Talks to end the 16-day conflict have intensified with US Secretary of State John Kerry shuttling between Jerusalem and Cairo in a bid to forge a truce.

Hamas had earlier rejected an Egyptian proposal that called for a ceasefire first and then negotiations, highlighting that they had not been shown the agreement beforehand. Israel, which had accepted the truce, subsequently expanded its assault in response.

The Hamas official acknowledged that the militants realized that getting Israel to end the eight-year siege in tandem with a ceasefire was unrealistic.

"There needs to be an agreement on the principles, the schedule (for ending the blockade) and the mechanism," the official said.

Hamas's chief Khaled Meshaal on Wednesday again insisted on a ceasefire only after an end to the siege, in force since Hamas was democratically elected in 2006.

The official, who works closely with Meshaal, said however that they understood that the blockade would be eased only after the ceasefire, but they required a schedule in place first.

The conflict has killed 659 Palestinians, 34 Israelis and a Thai worker in Israel.

The official said he hoped the negotiations would bear fruit "in a few days."

"The atmosphere in the talks is positive," he told AFP in a telephone interview.

Kerry had also said negotiations were making progress. "But there is still work to be done," he told reporters in Jerusalem.

Hamas is blacklisted by Israel and the United States as a terrorist organization and conducts the negotiations through intermediaries.

Aides traveling with Kerry voiced hope that the diplomat could find a way for Israel and Hamas to end the violence and then negotiate indirectly.

"There are a number of different ideas out there for how the ceasefire could work -- there are a number of different formulas -- and we’re open to any of them," a senior US official said after Kerry met Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

'Talk of guarantees'

The Hamas official said the group required firm guarantees and details before signing off an a truce.

"There should be guarantees by the parties demanding a ceasefire," he added, referring to the United States but also to Egypt, which controls the Rafah border crossing with Gaza.

The official asked to remain anonymous because he was not authorized to share details of the negotiations.

Egypt brokered a truce in 2012. But its new President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi, who overthrew the democratically-elected government of Muslim Brotherhood leader Mohamed Morsi last year, has been hostile to Hamas and commands less influence over the militants across the border.

Meshaal, who is based in the Qatari capital Doha, said in a press conference that Washington had offered to "guarantee" such an agreement, but it had a track record of not following through.

Another Hamas official, Osama Hamdan, said Kerry's commitments were vague.

"There are no American guarantees," he said in an interview with the Qatari-owned Al-Jazeera broadcaster.

"There is talk that guarantees will come," he said, adding that Hamas required clarifications.

Hamas's position has been bolstered by support from Palestinian president Mahmoud Abbas, an opponent of the group before agreeing a unity deal with them in April.

Abbas's PLO has said it agreed with Hamas's demands, which also include freeing Palestinian prisoners. He met Kerry in Ramallah on Wednesday.

37 Palestinians killed in Gaza Thursday, including 10 from one family
Picture
37 Palestinians were killed by Israeli shelling and airstrikes across the Gaza Strip on Thursday morning, bringing the Palestinian death toll on the 17th day of the offensive to 734, with more than 4,000 injured.

The attacks come a day after Israeli forces said that three soldiers were killed and 28 injured in fighting on Wednesday, bringing total military casualties to 32 in what has been the deadliest assault for Israel since attacking Lebanon in 2006.

At least four were detained and dozens injured by Israeli forces in the West Bank, meanwhile, as clashes erupted across the region in solidarity with the Gaza Strip after a youth was killed in a similar protest near Bethlehem the day before.

The continued Israeli violence comes as John Kerry shuttles between Jerusalem and Cairo in order to push for a ceasefire, which Hamas has said can only come after Israel lifts its crippling eight-year siege of the Gaza Strip.

Hamas has also insisted that resistance groups in Gaza will maintain their armed capabilities in the case of any ceasefire, after EU leaders called on them to disarm.

10 members of one family

34 bodies were recovered early Wednesday amid continued Israeli shelling across the Gaza Strip, including 10 members of one family.

Palestinian Ministry of Health spokesman Ashraf al-Qidra said that six members of the al-Astal family were killed in shelling on their house in a western Khan Younis district, naming the dead as: Milad Imran al-Astal, 29, Muhammad Imran Khamis al-Astal, 33, Malak Amin Ahmad al-Astal, 24, Ahmad Thair Imran al-Astal, 33, Amin Thair Imran al-Astal, 3, and Nada Thair Imran al-Astal, 5.

In another neighborhood of Khan Younis, meanwhile, Israeli shelling killed Muhammad Ismail al-Astal, 17, Ismail Muhammad al-Astal, 48, Ahad Muhammad Ismail al-Astal, 20, and Muhammad Hassan Abdulqadir al-Astal, 43.

At least six other members of the family have also been killed in the last week by Israeli bombing.

Additionally, five Palestinians were killed in Israeli raids that targeted two motorcycles in Khan Younis.

The Israeli military confirmed in a statement on Thursday that they bombed 35 targets across the Gaza Strip the day before, as the operation continued with no end in sight.

Clashes across West Bank

Protests against the Israeli assault continued in the West Bank meanwhile, where two Palestinians have been shot dead and dozens injured by Israeli forces in solidarity marches in the last week since the Israeli ground assault began.

Israeli forces detained four Palestinians late Wednesday in Abu Dis near Jerusalem during clashes in the town.

Hani Halabiyeh, a spokesperson for the local popular committee, said that "clashes erupted in Abu Dis in the al-Jamia street and near the camp and Israeli forces detained Ali Rabee Halabiyeh, 13, Muhannad Zaarur, and Abed Ayyad" as well as a fourth youth who was not yet identified.

Halabiyeh said that a youth was struck by live fire in the foot, another was injured with a rubber-coated steel bullet, and many others suffered from excessive tear gas inhalation.

Clashes also erupted in the Silwan neighborhood of East Jerusalem, as Israeli forces used tear-gas grandes and foul-smelling "Skunk" water cannons to disperse demonstrators.

A Palestinian youth, Samer Nasser Abu Shihab, 19, was injured by live fire during clashes at the eastern entrance of Qalqiliya city, while more than a dozen suffered from excessive tear gas inhalation due to the heavy number of grenades shot by Israeli soldiers.

Clashes erupted after a rally set off from central Qalqiliya city protesting the "Israeli massacres" against Palestinians in Gaza Strip.

Palestinian Red Crescent sources said that many injured youths were taken to Darwish Nazzal government hospital, among whom was Abu Shihab, who was shot in the waist and was immediately taken for surgery.

Medics suffered from suffocation due to the firing of tear gas grenades by Israeli forces while they were aiding the injured at the clashes site.

A Palestinian woman was severely suffocated by tear-gas bombs during clashes in Osrin village in southern Nablus after Wednesday midnight.

Local sources told Maan that Israeli military jeeps raided into the village firing dozens of tear-gas bombs and stun grenades, when Taghrid Ediely, 35, was suffocated by tear-gas bombs.

Youths threw rocks and empty bottles at soldiers in the village, but no injuries were reported.

Dozens killed overnight

Bodies continued to be recovered across the Gaza Strip Wednesday morning, as medical services struggled to respond to the continuing Israeli bombardment.

Five Palestinians were killed by airstrikes on an auto-rickshaw, or tuk-tuk, as well a motorcycle in the village of Abasan al-Kabira east of Khan Younis.

Witnesses told Ma'an reporter that an Israeli missile directly hit a three-wheeler in al-Shawafin neighborhood killing three before another missile hit a motorcycle in same area.

Spokesman for the Palestinian ministry of health Ashraf al-Qidra said that the body of Akram Ibrahim Abu Daqqa, 50, was removed from the rubble in Khuzaa in eastern Khan Younis.

The six were identified as Muhammad Ahmad al-Najjar Khuzaa, Anwar ahmad al-Najjar Khuzaa, Anwar Ahmad Abu Daqqa, Moussa Abu Daqqa, Adli Khalil Abu Daqqa and Muhammad Ibrahim Abu Daqqa.

Khalil Nasser Wishah, 21, succumbed to wounds he sustained earlier in central Gaza Strip.

Israeli warplanes also targeted, for the fifth time, an apartment in al-Thafer 9 tower in central Gaza.
