Here are Tuesday’s latest updates from Israel, Gaza, and the Middle East:
■ According to the daily report by the Hamas-run Gaza Health Ministry, 17 dead Palestinians (including 14 bodies recovered from the rubble) and 16 wounded arrived at hospitals in the Gaza Strip in the last 24 hours.
■ No evidence has been found on Chief Military Prosecutor Yifat Tomer-Yerushalmi’s phone indicating involvement or knowledge of Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara of the leak of the video showing IDF reservists abusing a Palestinian prisoner at the Sde Teiman detention center, senior police sources told Haaretz on Tuesday.
■ Settlers set fire to an agricultural building in the village of Mukhamas near Ramallah on Tuesday, according to a report in the Palestinian newspaper Al-Quds.
■ The Prime Minister’s Office said on Tuesday that, “in light of the Islamic Jihad’s announcement that it has located the remains of a hostage” the delay in handing it over “is another violation of the [cease-fire] agreement. Israel demands the immediate return of the three dead hostages still being held in the Gaza Strip.”
■ The UN human rights office said on Tuesday that at least 127 civilians had been killed in IDF strikes in Lebanon since a cease-fire nearly a year ago, and called for an investigation and for the truce to be respected.
■ The Israeli Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee approved a bill that would make it easier for Jews to purchase land in the West Bank, moving it to a first reading in the Knesset.
