GAZA, PALESTINIAN TERRITORIES: Israel bombed Gaza on Saturday as the United Nations warned the Palestinian territory has become “uninhabitable” after three months of fighting that threatens to engulf the wider region.
AFP correspondents reported Israeli strikes early Saturday on Gaza’s southern city of Rafah, where hundreds of thousands of people have sought shelter from the fighting.
Civilians continue to bear the brunt of the conflict, with the UN warning of a deepening humanitarian crisis as famine looms and disease spreads.
Abu Mohammed, 60, who fled to Rafah from the central Bureij refugee camp, told AFP Gaza’s future was “dark and gloomy and very difficult”.
With much of the territory already reduced to rubble, UN humanitarian chief Martin Griffiths said Friday that “Gaza has simply become uninhabitable”.

The UN’s children’s agency warned that clashes, malnutrition and a lack of health services had created “a deadly cycle that threatens over 1.1 million children” in Gaza.
Israeli forces were continuing “to fight in all parts of the Gaza Strip, in the north, centre and south”, military spokesman Daniel Hagari said late Friday.
Hagari said Israeli forces were maintaining a “very high state of readiness” near the border with Lebanon following the killing of a top Hamas commander in a strike in Beirut. Israel has not claimed responsibility for the strike, but a US defence official told AFP that Israel carried it out.
The war in Gaza was triggered by an unprecedented attack on Israel launched by Hamas on October 7, which resulted in the deaths of around 1,140 people, most of them civilians, according to an AFP tally based on official Israeli figures.
The resistance fighters also took around 250 hostages, 132 of whom remain in captivity, according to Israel, including at least 24 believed to have been killed.
In response, Israel has launched a relentless bombardment and ground invasion that have killed at least 22,600 people, most of them women and children, according to the Gaza health ministry.
AFP correspondents reported Friday that Israeli strikes had hit the southern cities of Khan Yunis and Rafah as well as parts of central Gaza. A hospital in the central city of Deir al-Balah reported that 35 people had been killed there.
The Israeli army said its forces had “struck over 100 targets” across Gaza in the previous 24 hours, including military positions, rocket launch sites and weapons depots.
The health ministry in Gaza said it had recorded 162 deaths over the same period.
A fighter jet bombed the central area of Bureij overnight, killing “an armed terrorist cell”, the army said, after what it described as an attempted attack on an Israeli tank. The Israeli army also claimed to have “killed a number of Palestinian militants” in clashes in Khan Yunis, a city that has become a major battleground.
Israeli troops also claimed to have uncovered tunnels under the Blue Beach Hotel in northern Gaza that had been used “by terrorists as shelter from where they planned and executed attacks”, according to the army.
AFPTV footage on Friday showed entire families, seeking safety from the violence, arriving in Rafah in overloaded cars and on foot, pushing handcarts stacked with possessions.
“We fled Jabalia camp to Maan (in Khan Yunis) and now we are fleeing from Maan to Rafah,” said one woman who declined to give her name. “(We have) no water, no electricity and no food.”
The Palestinian Red Crescent reported renewed shelling and drone fire in the area around Al-Amal hospital in Khan Yunis after seven displaced people, including a five-day-old baby, were killed while sheltering in the compound.
“We are facing a humanitarian catastrophe due to the spread of epidemics, with the hospital overcrowded with displaced people,” said a spokesman for Al-Aqsa Martyrs hospital in central Gaza.
French Foreign Minister Catherine Colonna, meanwhile, slammed a proposal by two Israeli ministers to resettle Gazans outside the territory.
“It’s not up to Israel to determine the future of Gaza, which is Palestinian land,” Colonna told CNN on Friday.
Top Western diplomats were in the region as part of a fresh push to raise the flow of aid into the besieged territory and calm rising tensions.
US Secretary of State Antony Blinken was in Turkey on Saturday where he was due to discuss the Gaza war with President Recep Tayyip Erdogan. Blinken will also visit several Arab states before heading to Israel and the occupied West Bank next week.
During his visit, Blinken plans to discuss with Israeli leaders “immediate measures to increase substantially humanitarian assistance to Gaza”, State Department spokesman Matthew Miller said.
The EU’s top diplomat Josep Borrell travelled to Lebanon on Friday for talks on “all aspects of the situation in and around Gaza”, including escalating tensions with Israel.

Germany’s top diplomat, Annalena Baerbock, was also due to travel to the region, a foreign ministry spokesman said. She plans to discuss “the dramatic humanitarian situation in Gaza” and tensions on the Israel-Lebanon border, spokesman Sebastian Fischer said.
The war in Gaza and almost daily exchanges of cross-border fire between Israel and Lebanon’s Iran-backed Hezbollah group since October 7 have raised fears of a wider conflagration.
Those fears grew this week following the killing of Hamas’ deputy leader Saleh al-Arouri in Hezbollah’s stronghold in the southern suburbs of Beirut.
Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah warned Israel on Friday that the group would swiftly respond “on the battlefield” to Arouri’s death.
Israel’s military said Friday that its fighter jets had conducted fresh strikes against Hezbollah targets just across the border.
ISLAMABAD: A petition has been filed in the Supreme Court (SC) calling for contempt proceedings against senators involved in passing a resolution in the Senate that sought a further delay in the February 8 elections.
The elections are set to take place in 90 days when an assembly is dissolved, but the polls in all five legislative are yet to be held and they’ve already surpassed their constitutional limit.
The polls for Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) and Punjab assemblies — dissolved in January last year — have not been held for around a year, while the national, Balochistan, and Sindh assemblies have been pushed past their limits as well already.
With the fears rife of delays, a petition was moved in the apex court earlier, following which the SC directed the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) and President Arif Alvi to announce a date, which they did: February 8.
Days after the announcement, the top court also ruled that no objections could be raised on the delimitations after the announcement of the schedule for the general elections, virtually closing all doors for a delay in polls.
But on Friday, the Senate approved a non-binding resolution seeking a delay in the general elections, set to be staged on February 8, drawing strong criticism from major political parties.
Senator Dilawar Khan, an independent lawmaker, moved the resolution in the upper house of the parliament, which got the approval during the presence of 14 senators — who were the only lawmakers present in the house of 100.
In response, Advocate Ishtiaq Ahmed Mirza filed a petition in the top court today against Chairman Senate Sadiq Sanjrani, Senator Dilawar, and other lawmakers — including those from the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) and the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP).
In the plea, Mirza prayed to the court to ensure that elections are held on 8 February as “certain number of days are required to do different acts which the law requires prior to the holding of the said elections and the impugned order passed at the eleventh hour if allowed to remain in the field would not permit the holding of elections on 8 February”.
Moreover, Jamaat-e-Islami’s (JI) Senator Mushtaq Ahmad Khan has also moved a resolution in the Senate calling for holding polls at their scheduled time, which is expected to be taken up for a vote in the next session.
A day after the Senate resolution seeking delay in elections caused uproar in the country, Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) Information Secretary Marriyum Aurangzeb that polls in the country will be held as per schedule whoever may have been behind the resolution.
Talking to the media after appearing before an anti-terrorism court (ATC) in Lahore on Saturday, the former information minister said that PML-N was the only party that opposed the resolution.
“Elections will be on February 8 [even if] other parties cry or shout,” said Marriyum. She also claimed that her party’s arch-rival Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) was behind the resolution.
Marriyum said the PTI under a well-thought-out plan first approached the Lahore High Court (LHC) and now moved the resolution in the Senate.
The former minister was referring to the petition filed by the PTI which led the LHC to suspend the notification of the appointment of ROs and AROs from the executive branch. The decision was later overturned by the Supreme Court.
“They remain quiet inside and then create a ruckus on the outside. We do not create drama outside the assembly,” she said about the PTI. In a jibe at PTI’s founding chairman Imran Khan, she warned him against issuing threats from the jail.
“The Pakistani people will not vote for them. The people of Pakistan want elections,” said Marriyum. She also shared that the PML-N’s schedule for public gatherings will be decided next week.
The PML-N leader’s media talk focused on the non-binding resolution seeking a delay in the general elections passed by the Senate a day earlier.
Senator Dilawar Khan, an independent lawmaker, moved the resolution in the upper house of the parliament, which got the approval during the presence of 14 senators — who were the only lawmakers present in the house of 100.
PTI’s Senator Gurdeep Singh and Pakistan Peoples Party’s (PPP) Behramand Tangi abstained from voting. Following the vote, the Senate chairman adjourned the session indefinitely.
Later, both the lawmakers were issued notices by their parties for their conduct during the session.
ISLAMABAD: The federal capital will host health authorities and international health organisations participating in a two-day ‘Global Health Security Summit 2024’ being held on January 10 and 11, the National Health Services, Regulations and Coordination (NHS,R&C) said.
Health authorities from at least 15 countries and health organisations have confirmed their participation in the first summit of its kind for which Pakistan is the chair, The News reported on Saturday.
“Being the chair of the Global Health Security Agenda, Pakistan is holding the global health security summit next week on January 10 and 11 to draw the world’s attention towards threats and challenges to global health security in the days and months to come. We have invited authorities from 30 countries and organisations. 15 of them have so far confirmed their participation in the summit,” a senior official of the federal health ministry told the publication.
‘Together for a Healthy Planet’ has been selected as the slogan for the summit, while its key thematic areas include the impact of global health security on national security, pandemic preparedness and response, climate change and emerging public health threats, multi-sectoral coordination in the context of ‘One Health’ and sustainable financing based on equity for global health security, the official said.
Access to Universal Health Coverage/PHC platform to achieve SDG3 as well as ensuring vaccine equity, patent deregulation and transfer of vaccine manufacturing technology would also be discussed during the moot, he added.
The official maintained that key strategic objectives of the summit are to collaborate with global leaders to ensure equity-based pandemic preparedness, financing for low and middle-income countries, mutual exchange of knowledge as well as sharing experience with member states and experts around summit thematic areas including vaccine equity, patent deregulation and transfer of technology.
The conference is also aimed at securing global and regional partnerships with international organisations for aligning health security priorities with those of global and regional priorities to strengthen core capacities through technical assistance.
Another key objective of the moot is to explore opportunities of joint working and pool funding for health security and International Health Regulations 2005 across the region and globe (pandemic fund — “One Health”) in addition to the sustainable domestic funding for its five-year health security plan 2024-28.
A future ‘global health security charter’ will be signed to build up a narrative for an equity-based pandemic treaty based on an equity-based global financing facility on the mutually agreed upon “Islamabad declaration”.
This will be done to make health systems resilient enough to showcase health security by putting up a coordinated ‘One Health response’ to any threat. Also to become advocates and champions of the Global Health Security Agenda (GHSA) in participating member states, the health ministry official added.
Caretaker Federal Health Minister Dr Nadeem Jan had earlier told a group of newsmen on Wednesday that the summit was aimed at drawing the world’s attention towards future pandemics and strengthening collective ability to prevent, detect, and respond to infectious disease threats like Covid-19.
“After the Covid-19 threat was over and WHO declared that it was no longer a public health emergency, entire world put global health security on the back burner. But, we in Pakistan strongly believe that being chair of the Global Health Security Agenda, there is an urgent need to discuss issues concerning global health security and take timely actions to prevent and deal with future pandemics,” the health minister had told a group of journalists at the Ministry of National Health Services.
Sydney: David Warner went out the way he began with a rumbustious innings to guide Australia to an eight-wicket victory and seal a 3-0 Test series sweep over Pakistan in Sydney on Saturday.
Playing in his 112th and final Test, Warner was dismissed for 57 — just 11 runs from finishing off the job — and left the Sydney Cricket Ground arena before an adoring home crowd.
Marnus Labuschagne with his 19th Test half-century on 62 and Steve Smith on four were there at the end as the Australians reached the 130-run target for the loss of just two wickets.
“We are in the entertainment business, happy to come out here and showcase what I try to do all the time,” said the 37-year-old opener Warner, who made his Test debut in 2011.
“I started with Twenty20, tried to come here and emulate that, tried to play my shots and managed to get a win on the board.” Asked how he wished to be remembered, Warner added: “Exciting, entertaining and, I hope, I put a smile on everyone’s face the way I played.”
It was something of an anti-climax when Warner, known as “The Bull”, was out after losing a review for lbw to spinner Sajid Khan.
Warner was congratulated by the Pakistan players, who had given him a guard of honour as he came out for his final innings, before he waved his bat acknowledging the cheering crowd as he left the SCG for the last time.
It was a typically aggressive innings from Warner coming off 75 balls with seven fours, replete with crashing drives and audacious reverse sweeps.
It was Australia’s 17th consecutive Test win against Pakistan after securing the current series in Melbourne over Christmas.
“I love the way the boys performed. It has been a great start to the (southern) summer for us,” said skipper Pat Cummins, who was named man of the series for his 19 wickets at an average of 12.
“The boys found a way to get us back into the contest whenever we were on the back foot.”
Australia had an early setback when Warner’s childhood friend and fellow opener Usman Khawaja was out in the second over, lbw to Sajid for a duck.
But it set centre stage for Warner as he sought to put pressure on the bowlers and fielders with his intimidating gung-ho approach. His 37th Test half-century came off just 56 balls.
Warner retires as one of Australia’s greatest opening batsmen, scoring 8,786 Test runs since his debut at an average of 44.59, with 26 centuries.
But he will also be remembered for his central role in the “Sandpapergate” ball-tampering scandal of 2018.
Impressive Jamal Pakistan go home on the end of yet another defeat in Australia, but there were some positives.
Aamer Jamal was announced as player of the match for his all-round performance of 82 in the first innings and 6-69 in Australia’s first innings.
“It’s been so long to get here (his Test debut),” Jamal said.
“I was over the moon, performing in front of this great (Australian) side wasn’t easy, but I stuck to my discipline and I loved every moment.”
Mohammad Rizwan and Jamal had defied the Australian attack for almost the first hour of the fourth day, adding 41 runs to the overnight score before Nathan Lyon struck.
Lyon switched to bowling around the wicket and Rizwan played across the line, edging a catch to Warner — who else — at leg slip for 28.
Jamal followed three balls later in Cummins’ next over, top-edging a pull shot straight to Travis Head at deep backward square leg for 18.
The end of the innings came three overs later when Lyon bowled Hasan Ali for five. Lyon finished with three for 36 and has 509 Test wickets.

The inauguration, graced by His Excellency, Mr. Mohamed Karmoune, Ambassador of Morocco to Pakistan
Islamabad, Jan 5: Today, the Pakistan National Council of Arts (PNCA) proudly presents the highly anticipated solo exhibition by acclaimed artist Hussain Jamil, titled “A Mirror’s Tale.” The exhibition, hosted by the Visual Arts Division, opened its doors on Friday, January 5th, at 3 PM, marking a significant cultural moment in the capital’s art scene.
The inauguration, graced by His Excellency, Mr. Mohamed Karmoune, Ambassador of Morocco to Pakistan, and Mr. M. Ayoub Jamali, Director-General of PNCA, received an enthusiastic reception. This esteemed event showcased Jamil’s masterful manipulation of reflective surfaces, captivating patrons and art enthusiasts alike.
Spanning the prestigious Grand Hall and Gallery 1 of PNCA, the exhibition, despite the artist’s absence at the opening ceremony, conveyed Jamil’s profound appreciation for PNCA and its patrons through a heartfelt video message. His insights into the works and admiration for the institution resonated deeply with the audience.
Jamil’s artistic finesse navigated the enigmatic world of reflections, transforming reflective surfaces into canvases that mirrored reality while transcending into realms beyond. His creations, more than mere arrangements of reflective materials, served as symphonies of storytelling, weaving narratives through fractured and crumbled sheets, whispering tales of depth and intrigue.
“Welcome to a mesmerizing journey through the realms of perception and illusion,” shared Jamil. “My art aimed to explore the multifaceted nature of reality, where reflections became gateways to understanding the layers that cloak our perceptions.”
Each artwork in this exhibition invited introspection, prompting viewers to contemplate the essence of existence as fragments and reflections converged to compose narratives laden with hidden stories.
“We invited art enthusiasts, patrons, and the curious-minded to immerse them in this collection,” invited Mr. M. Ayoub Jamali, Director-General of PNCA. “Hussain Jamil’s profound artistic expression captured the beauty found in imperfections, beckoning us to explore the complexities of the human experience.”
The exhibition, running until January 20th, provided a unique opportunity to engage with the reflective artistry of Hussain Jamil. Additionally, upon the artist’s arrival in Pakistan, the Visual Arts Division planned to host an artist talk, offering complementary insights into his works and artistic journey.
As viewers wandered through this thought-provoking collection, they were encouraged to allow the reflections to guide them through a labyrinth of interpretations, discovering the beauty within the fractures and folds of Jamil’s remarkable creations.

KARACHI: The initial schedule for this year’s ICC T20 World Cup has been finalised with Pakistan and India being in the same group.
The tournament is set to take place in the United States and the West Indies from June 4 to June 30, featuring a total of 20 teams.
For the first round, the 20 teams are divided into four groups.
According to sources, Pakistan and India share their group with Ireland, Canada, and the host nation, the United States.
Subsequently, a majority of the matches in the first round involving Pakistan’s group are set to be played in the United States.
Pakistan is slated to play its first match against the USA on June 6, followed by the much-anticipated clash between the arch-rivals Pakistan and India in New York on June 9.
The match between Pakistan and Canada is scheduled for June 11 in New York, while the first round match with Ireland will take place in Florida on June 16.
Following the first round, the top two teams from each of the four groups will qualify for the Super Eight round, where they will be divided into two groups.
According to the sources, the ICC has sent the schedule to the cricket boards and the broadcasters for feedback and approval, with the final schedule set to be released soon.
Sources suggest that the timing of the Pakistan-India match and the time zone differences between USA and sub-continent could lead to the option of scheduling the match a day earlier.
It is worth noting that New York is ten hours behind Pakistan’s time, and the match scheduled to start in the afternoon there would be played in the late night in Pakistan.
There is a possibility that the match could be rescheduled to June 8 to avoid affecting its viewership.
