- At least 37 Palestinian children have been killed in Gaza since the start of 2026, with an estimated 90% of schools damaged or destroyed, leaving over 700,000 children without regular access to education, according to UNICEF, as Israeli forces continue to demolish schools, including the UNRWA Jabalya Preparatory Boys’ School.
- Israel's security cabinet has approved measures to entrench Israeli control across the occupied West Bank, including repealing restrictions on land sales to Israeli settlers and expanding settlements, with Israeli finance minister Bezalel Smotrich stating that the government is "burying the idea of a Palestinian state".
- The Palestinian Authority has requested an urgent Arab League meeting in response to Israel's recent measures, with President Mahmoud Abbas condemning the moves as an "open Israeli attempt to legalize settlement expansion, land confiscation, and the demolition of Palestinian properties", as the death toll in Gaza rises to 72,032 killed and 171,661 injured since October 7, 2023.
