Good morning Middle East Eye readers, 

Here are the latest updates from the Israeli war on Gaza, now in its 607th day: 

  • A US and Israeli-backed group operating aid sites in Gaza pushed back the reopening of its facilities set for Thursday.

  • Some 73% of Germans want tighter controls on arms exports to Israel, including 30% who favour a total ban, a poll showed on Wednesday, reflecting growing public unease over the government's Israel policy.

  • Israeli strike on Abu Shamala family's home, west of Deir Al-Balah, in the central Gaza Strip killed Palestinian child Jana Khaled Sand, according to the Palestinian Information Center. Three people were killed and some wounded in an Israeli air strike on a house in the Zeitoun neighborhood, south of Gaza City, a medical source at the Baptist Hospital said.

  • The Israeli forces fired sound bombs and bullets at Palestinians as they confronted settler attacks on the town of Bruqin in the occupied West Bank, the Palestinian Information Center reported, citing local sources.

  • A federal judge in Colorado on Wednesday temporarily blocked the Trump administration from deporting the wife and five children of the suspect in a fire-bomb attack in Boulder, Colorado, saying that deporting the family without adequate process could cause "irreparable harm."

  • US President Donald Trump imposed a travel ban on 12 Muslim-majority countries, including Yemen.
