Israeli historian and political scientist Ilan Pappé said in an interview that over 700,000 Israeli settlers have left Israel since the start of the war on Gaza soon after 7 October, 2023.

An estimated 10,000 Israelis have emigrated to Canada this year amidst the ongoing genocidal war on Gaza, the daily Haaretz has reported.

A total of 7,850 Israelis applied for and received a work visa in 2024 – a figure five times higher than the previous year, the Hebrew paper said.

In 2023, 1,585 Israelis were granted work visas in Canada, compared to 1,505 applicants the previous year.

Meanwhile Over 18,000 Israelis applied for German citizenship between January-September this year – more than double the 9,000 who applied in the whole of 2023 according to Haaretz.

Israeli forces have bombed a tent housing Palestinian journalists near Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis in southern Gaza, killing two and wounding nine others while burning them alive.

At least nine journalists were injured. They are Ahmed Mansour, Hassan Eslaih, Ahmed Al-Agha, Mohammad Fayek, Abdallah Al-Attar, Ihab Al-Bardini, Mahmoud Awad, Majed Qdeih, and Ali Eslaih.

At least two of the wounded journalists are in critical condition, one of them with severe burns and the other with a head injury from shrapnel.

In a disturbing footage circulating on social media, journalist Ahmed Mansout can be seen consumed by fire as people and rescue workers tried desperately to put it out. Mansour is a father and a journalist for Palestine Today.

“(Israeli) Missiles burned Colleague Ahmed Mansour and is still in intensive care, suffering from severe burns as a result of the targeting of the tent where he is sitting in the journalists’ camp at Nasser Hospital,” Wael Abo Omar, a Palestinian journalist in the blockaded enclave, said on X.

Mahmoud Bassam, a photojournalist based in Gaza, said Mansour “needs a miracle” to recover from the severe burns.
