The Israeli army launched an airstrike last night on tents housing displaced Palestinians in the Al-Mawasi area of Khan Younis, which was designated as a safe zone, in the Gaza Strip. According to initial reports, 20 people were killed in the attack.
Local sources reported that the attack was carried out without warning and that a fire broke out in the tents following the attack.
Russian Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Maria Zakharova confirmed that Russia officially recognizes Karabakh as part of Azerbaijan. The statement followed backlash over Russian Vice President Vladimir Medinsky’s remarks referring to the region as “disputed.”
Zakharova clarified that Medinsky was discussing the humanitarian aspect of the conflict and urged against misinterpreting his words. Azerbaijan’s Foreign Ministry criticized Medinsky’s comments and reminded that Russia’s official stance recognizes Karabakh as Azerbaijani territory.
