Bombing of a refugee camp in Rafah: An Israeli strike left at least 45 dead according to Palestinian authorities. The Israeli army first claimed that it was targeting two Hamas leaders, before Benjamin Netanyahu recognized a “tragic accident” in view of the numerous civilian victims. Israel announced that an investigation was opened to determine the circumstances of this strike.

Start of examination of the end-of-life bill: the debate around the text began yesterday in the National Assembly. It must continue until June 7 before a solemn vote scheduled for June 11. In total, 3,300 amendments have been tabled so far. One of them, adopted by a special committee, mentions in particular “an illness in the advanced or terminal phase” as a condition for accessing assisted dying, instead of “vital prognosis committed in the short or medium term” in the initial version of the text.
