Security Council briefing by Muhannad Hadi, Deputy Special Coordinator, Resident and Humanitarian Coordinator for the Middle East Peace Process, United Nations Special Coordinator for the Middle East Peace Process (UNSCO), on Gaza. "Allow me to begin by sharing some voices from Gaza. “In my shelter, I hear women cry all night for help.” “We wake up every day just to search for food and water.” “As a mother I am forced to witness my child starve and cry all night long.” “We want the war to stop and dream of the day that we can go back to our homes in the North.” “I went for 4 months without taking a shower.” “We have to cut our hair due to lice and lack of shampoo and hygiene material.” These are just some of the things that women told me when I met them in Deir al Balah in Gaza on 9 July. All of them spoke about the lack of safety, dignity and privacy, in overcrowded camps. Many women said that they had suicidal thoughts". "The children who die, often do so slowly and painfully. The ones who survive, will have lifelong disabilities and sad futures. Six hundred and twenty-five thousand children have been deprived of an entire schoolyear of education. Needless to say that a child without education is a child without future. Children wander around IDP sites 24/7, often unaccompanied, exposed to huge risks and further injuries from playing in rubble filled with unexploded ordnance. They are also at risk of contracting dangerous diseases such as polio from the mountains of garbage and rivers of sewage that flow through IDP settlements. Mr. President, Everyone in Gaza is exposed to risks of injury and disease. Those who survive the bombs and bullets, still face the threats of hunger, unsanitary conditions and lack of healthcare. People with pre-existing medical conditions, such as cancer, kidney failure or diabetes, are not getting the treatment they need". “Today the UN is not in a position to provide the necessary assistance to the people in Gaza, let alone to scale up, unless specific factors are in place. The enabling factors required for humanitarian operations are not new. First and foremost, we need protection of civilians and civilian infrastructure including protection of all humanitarian staff and assets.” “The United Nations, and our partners in Gaza, will never give up. We will continue to provide desperately needed assistance. But we need a safe enabling environment to do so.”

Play Video: Paris Olympics: arson attacks bring chaos to French rail network before opening ceremony | BBC News

France’s high-speed rail network was thrown into chaos, hours before the Olympics opening ceremony in Paris, by a series of coordinated arson attacks. The saboteurs struck away from the capital at five apparently unguarded places. France's state-owned rail company SNCF says the saboteurs vandalised or targeted five signal boxes and electricity installations. France's TGV high-speed train services ground to a halt on major lines and stranded passengers filled the main concourses at Gare Du Nord and Gare Montparnasse, two of the major rail hubs in Paris for travellers on the main lines running north and west of the capital. The caretaker Prime Minister Gabriel Attal said the repercussions for the rail network were massive and serious, and France's intelligence services and forces of order had been deployed to "find and punish those behind these criminal acts". It was not immediately clear who was behind the attacks. The sabotage took place despite a massive security operation to protect the Olympics. Streets in the centre of Paris have been blocked off, metro stations closed and thousands of police, soldiers and other guards deployed to maintain security on the big showpiece day launch the Olympic Games.

Play Video: Sinaloa Cartel El Mayo and Joaquín Guzmán López Bosses Arrested in Texas

Ismael ‘El Mayo’ Zambada, the leader of Mexico’s infamous Sinaloa cartel, has been arrested by US authorities in El Paso, Texas.    Joaquín Guzmán López, a son of jailed cartel leader ‘El Chapo’, was arrested alongside El Mayo.    Zambada and Guzmán face charges for leading criminal operations for the cartel - including fentanyl manufacturing and trafficking.    Fentanyl is an extremely deadly opioid drug, 20 to 40 times more potent than heroin.    It’s the leading cause of death for 18 to 45-year-olds in America, according to authorities.    The Sinaloa cartel is the largest supplier of drugs to the US.   US Attorney General Merrick Garland said the two men lead ‘one of the most violent and powerful drug trafficking organisations in the world’.   It was run by El Mayo and El Chapo throughout the 90s and 2000s, who significantly expanded its operations.    El Chapo was imprisoned twice in Mexico, but escaped each time.    He was extradited to the US in 2017, and sentenced to life in 2019 on charges related to his cartel leadership.   He is currently held at ADX Florence, a supermax prison in Colorado housing some of the country’s most dangerous criminals.    Following El Chapo’s arrest, his four sons, known as ‘Los Chapatos’, inherited his criminal empire.    His eldest son, Ovidio Guzmán López, was arrested by Mexican authorities in 2019 but President Andrés Manuel López Obrador ordered him released, to avoid further bloodshed. He was arrested again in 2023 in Mexico and extradited to the US.   The two other Chapatos, Jesus Alfredo Guzman Salazar and Ivan Archivaldo Guzman Salazar, were charged over drug trafficking by the US Justice Department last year.    They remain at large.

SNCF says it’s been a victim overnight of a "massive attack aimed at paralysing the network”. Fires were started at three points on TGV lines running west, north and east of Paris. A fourth arson attack on the line running south to Lyon and the Mediterranean was foiled. The result is that TGV trains are being diverted onto other lines, leading to delays of up to two hours and some cancellations. Repairs will not be completed until after the weekend. No claim of responsibility has been made but many experts see a link with the Olympic Games.

Many Democratic congresspeople boycotted Netanyahu’s speech.    Notable absentees included Nancy Pelosi and Bernie Sanders.    Kamala Harris was also a no-show, claiming a trip scheduled long ago prevented her from attending.    Palestinian-American congresswoman Rashida Tlaib, a harsh critic of Israel, protested from inside the chamber.   The war in Gaza has killed 39,000 Palestinians according to local health authorities and left much of the Strip’s infrastructure destroyed.
