Israel says carrying out 'operation' in Gaza's main hospital

18 Sept 10:43 Key points summarised by AI

Israeli forces launched an 'operation' in Gaza's Al-Shifa hospital, alleging it targets a suspected Hamas command center located beneath thousands of ailing and sheltering civilians.
The IDF stated the operation was 'precise and targeted,' despite international warnings, including from the US, to protect the hospital, with the US corroborating Israel's intelligence on Hamas's use of the facility.
Hamas denies deliberately locating paramilitary assets at civilian sites, while conditions inside Al-Shifa are described as horrific, with critical shortages and mass burials due to power loss and ongoing fighting.

President Macron condemned widespread rioting and looting during nationwide protests, blaming far-left activists and criminals for the "unrestrained violence" and vowing accountability for those who "sought to bring down the Republic."
Over 2,400 arrests were made as protests against rising living costs and poor school conditions escalated, causing extensive damage to public buildings and businesses in cities like Paris, Limoges (where City Hall burned), Marseille, and Lyon.
The unrest, which organizers hoped would revive the "yellow vest" movement, saw political leaders trade blame, with Macron instructing prefects to protect public buildings and potentially ban future protests to prevent further disorder.
