Israel bombs third residential tower block in Gaza City in three days

Israel said it hit Al-Roya Tower yesterday after issuing an evacuation warning. It followed the destruction of the 15-storey Sousi Tower by warplanes on Saturday, with footage posted to social media by the Israeli defence minister, Israel Katz.

Strikes on the city overnight into yesterday killed 14 people, local health officials said, including a strike on a school in southern Gaza City sheltering displaced Palestinians.

Evacuation warnings for both high-rises and surrounding tents sheltering displaced Palestinians were issued on Saturday. Avichay Adraee, a military spokesperson, claimed without providing evidence that the buildings were targets because Hamas had infrastructure inside or near them.

Hamas said the allegations were "baseless lies" and that the high-rises were residential towers.

Katz posted a video to social media of the Sousi Tower collapsing in an enormous cloud of smoke, along with the words: "We continue." On Friday, he had posted the evacuation order on X, saying: "The gates of hell are being unlocked in Gaza City."

Woman in Cabin 10 A fearless Keira Knightley on a yacht? No, being a hack isn't really like that

In The Woman in Cabin 10, Netflix's new potboiler, Keira Knightley plays a fearless justice warrior, a lone voice of dogged truth in a maelstrom of corruption, and this is not her first foray into such terrain: six years ago she played the whistleblower Katharine Gun in Official Secrets, the 2019 film about some pretty dicey US and UK behaviour before the Iraq war.
