Another bloody Saturday in the Middle East on May 13. Clashes continue between Gaza and Israel. The rocket fights resumed, notably killing two people. Egypt continues its mediation efforts to believe in a ceasefire.

An hour before the Egyptian-mediated ceasefire, a final barrage of rockets was fired into Israel from Gaza. The objective of this Egyptian intervention: to put an end to five days of combat between the Israeli army and Palestinian armed groups in Gaza. This Saturday, May 13, the missile and rocket fights resumed. In the sky of the Gaza Strip, columns of smoke rise.

Demonstrations in Tel Aviv to stop this war

The Israeli military authorities broadcast two videos showing strikes against two military command centers of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad movement. At the heart of this escalation of violence, the most serious in the region since August 2022, Palestinians walk through the rubble of their destroyed buildings. In Tel-Aviv (Israel), more than 2,000 Israeli demonstrators, Palestinian flag in hand, marched to say stop to war.
