Death toll soars amid escalation in Lebanon, Gaza

The Israeli army offensive on Lebanon and the Gaza Strip is claiming more casualties, while UN warns of a likely famine in the northern Gaza, which has been besieged by Israel Defence Forces (IDF) units for more than a month.

Sirens activated in Jerusalem Hills as IAF intercepts missile form Yemen

Sirens sounded early Monday morning in the hills of Jerusalem, Beit Shemesh, Kiryat Arba and nearby communities.

The IDF confirmed that a single rocket launch from Yemen was detected and successfully intercepted, there were no casualties. However, explosions were heard in Beit Shemesh and nearby neighbourhoods. Police and Magen David Adom (MDA) brigades began checking the affected areas for possible damage or debris.

Firefighters from the Beit Shemesh station were dispatched to inspect and secure the area. Residents reported that they discovered a fire that affected local vegetation and a vehicle. Crews arriving on the scene localised and extinguished the fire.

Death toll from Israeli onslaught on Lebanon nears 3,200

Israeli airstrikes on Lebanon killed at least 53 people over the weekend and injured 99 others, Lebanon’s Health Ministry said on Sunday.

The death toll on Saturday raised the total number of people killed in Israeli attacks in the country since October 2023 to 3,189, while 14,078 were injured, the ministry said in a statement.

Since late September, Israel has stepped up its air campaign in Lebanon against what it claims are Hezbollah targets, continuing a long-running cross-border war between Israel and the Lebanese group since Israel launched a brutal offensive on the Gaza Strip on October 7, 2023.

Israel expanded the conflict by launching an invasion of southern Lebanon on October 1 this year.

UN must formally declare famine in northern Gaza

A human rights group says relevant international organisations and the UN should officially declare a famine in the northern Gaza Strip as Israel has blocked aid from reaching the besieged Gaza for more than 50 days.

The Euro-Mediterranean Human Rights Monitor said in a report on Sunday that Israel’s use of starvation as a weapon is a component of the ongoing genocide in the Strip, which also includes massacres and forced displacement. The report said:

“Due to the illegal Israeli blockade on the enclave, 10s of thousands of Palestinians, including dozens of patients in three hospitals in the northern Gaza Strip, are in immediate danger of starvation or long-term health consequences.” 

Israel has blocked any humanitarian aid from reaching northern Gaza since September 25, the report also said.

Residents of northern Gaza have been deliberately and continuously bombed, deprived of food, water and medicine, the report said. It added:

“Anyone who tries to flee in search of these necessities is targeted by Israeli drones and killed.”

Euro-Med Monitor said its field team had documented shocking accounts of severe hunger and food shortages by Palestinians forced to flee the northern Gaza Strip. The report said:

“The international community has both an ethical and legal responsibility to stop the spread of famine in the Gaza Strip.”

Israel must be pressured to restore health, water and sanitation in the Gaza Strip and ensure safe supplies, the report said.

The number of victims is growing

The UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) estimates that between 75,000 and 95,000 people are still trapped in northern Gaza, at double risk of being killed by Israeli strikes or starving to death.

Meanwhile, the Israeli army strikes on the besieged Gaza Strip have killed at least 52 Palestinians in the past 24 hours. The latest casualties include three men killed by a drone near a well in the Nuseirat refugee camp in the central part of the enclave.

Earlier, the health ministry said the total number of victims of the conflict since October 2023 has surpassed 43,603, with 102,929 injured.

Israel launched a brutal war on besieged Gaza on October 7 after Hamas launched an attack on Israeli territory that killed 1,200 people and captured 250. Later, it imposed a complete blockade on the densely populated territory, depriving more than two million Palestinians living there of fuel, electricity, food and water.

AISSMS’S PRIDE – THE HISTORIC CANBERRA

The English electric company was found after world war one in 1918 and it made many things but the best thing it made is English electric Canberra. Yes, I am talking about the massive aircraft which is one of the many jewels in the crown of our AlSSMS society which is fondly remembered by the locals as a landmark to identify the college. It was given the name “Canberra” after the capital of Australia in January 1950 by Sir George Nelson owner of this company. In the 1950s it was like an eagle who could fly at a higher altitude than any other plane at that time and set the world record. Canberra played a very important role in the wars we studied in our secondary boards i.e. Vietnam war and the Indo-Pak war.

Canberra served for more than 50 glorious years and got retired 57 years after its first flight. There were a total of 1352 Canberra aircraft, which were made in 27 versions with the highest speed of 930km/hr. One of the many best things about Canberra is it was not only a fighter jet but it was often converted into drones for reconnaissance purposes suiting cameras and other equipment in it. One of the interesting facts about Canberra is that its early prototype was operated by one of the best car company i.e. Rolls – Royce. and it can hold bombs of weight 4500 kg.

Canberra was the backbone of the Indian Air Force (IAF) for bombing raids and photo reconnaissance for many decades. It entered IAF in 1954. The Canberra aircraft was the most advanced fighter plane used by the Indian Air force during Goa-Portuguese conflicts, Belgian-Congo disputes and the 1965 Indo- Pak war. The interesting thing is that during the Indo- Pakistani War of the 1960s and 1970s, Canberra was used by both sides. The most audacious use of the bomber was in the “Raid on Badin” during the Indo-Pakistani War of 1965, when the IAF sent in Canberra to attack a critical Pakistani radar post in West Pakistan. On 21 May 1999, prior to the commencement of the Kargil War, the IAF Air HQ assigned a Canberra aircraft on a photographic mission near the Line of Control, where it took a severe blow from an FIM-92 Stinger infrared homing missile on the starboard engine and yet the Canberra successfully returned to the base using the other engine. The entire IAF Canberra fleet was grounded and then retired following the crash of an IAF Canberra in December 2005. After 50 years of service, Canberra was finally retired by the IAF on 11 May 2007.

Indian Canberrasquadrons of the 1965 Indo–Pak war were rewarded with four Mahavir Chakras, a dozen Vir Chakras, numerous Gallantry awards, and service awards for military Efficiency. There are 5 Canberra displayed in India at present, 2 of which are present in Pune itself. One is on display at the Shree Shivaji preparatory military school, Pune, and the second is at Mohegan air station (but it’s not open to the public).

So the huge statue of Canberra fighter plane placed in our All India Shri Shivaji Memorial Society’s College premice holds a magnificent history and heritage. It symbolizes freedom, hard work, respect and sacrifice. So now every time we will see it we will remember its Unmeasurable work for our country.
