ISRAEL WON'T AGREE TO CEASEFIRE BECAUSE IT'S LOSING THE WAR | THE ELECTRONIC INTIFADA
Short-lived scenes of celebration after Hamas announced that it had accepted a truce proposal on Monday gave way to renewed fear and confusion in Gaza, as Israel rejected the negotiated deal that had been signed off on by the United States, Egypt and Qatar. Israel immediately ordered the evacuations of areas in eastern Rafah, the last relatively intact city in the besieged enclave and home to more than a million people already displaced from other parts of Gaza. Hours later, Israeli forces began an armored advance and overnight on Monday seized the Palestinian side of the Rafah crossing with Egypt. That assault cut off access for aid and any hope of exit for wounded Palestinians via Gaza’s only border with the outside world. As Israel moved to escalate its assault on Rafah, human rights groups called on third states to intervene urgently to stop a massacre on the scale of Srebrenica – the 1995 genocide of thousands of Bosnian Muslim men and boys perpetrated in what had been designated by the UN as a “safe zone.” On Tuesday, patients and medical workers fled Rafah’s al-Najjar hospital after Israel ordered the evacuation of the area, shutting down the only facility left in Gaza with a functioning dialysis unit to treat kidney patients.
