International newspapers: A feeling of helplessness prevails around the world regarding the daily suffering in Gaza.

International newspapers have focused their articles and reports on Israel's use of Palestinians as human shields in the Gaza Strip, the harsh criticism Israel has faced over the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, and Israel's plan to distribute aid to the territory.

The Israeli newspaper Haaretz wrote that Israel's use of Palestinians as human shields in Gaza has long been systematic, noting that recent testimonies from Israeli soldiers have concluded in previous investigations that the Israeli military engaged in similar practices during the Gaza war with the knowledge of senior officers.

According to the newspaper, human rights organizations have repeatedly warned against the use of Palestinians as human shields in the West Bank.

The British newspaper, The Guardian, published an article discussing the global sense of helplessness in the face of the increasing daily suffering of Palestinians in Gaza, especially after the spread of hunger and malnutrition in the besieged enclave. The article stated that the feeling of helplessness in the face of this grave injustice could lead to a loss of confidence not only in governments and institutions, but also in the global moral order and its ability to protect children.

The Israeli newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth published a report indicating that the postponement of the implementation of the aid distribution plan in Gaza comes at a time when Israel is facing harsh international criticism for its handling of the humanitarian crisis. The report states that Israeli officials believe the US-backed plan will ease global anger toward Israel, but concerns about its implementation remain high.

Regarding the plan itself, the Washington Post, citing confidential documents it has reviewed, reports that "the plan's drafters raised the controversy that would accompany its announcement months ago, given its ambiguity and its exclusion of humanitarian organizations that have gained experience working on the ground in Gaza."

The newspaper linked the delay in implementing the plan to growing questions about its legitimacy, feasibility, and objectives.

Meanwhile, the Jerusalem Post reported that the majority of Israelis fear the upcoming elections could be canceled due to the ongoing war on the Gaza Strip. The newspaper cited the results of a public opinion poll showing that 79% of voters in the ruling coalition believe Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is not pushing for a prisoner deal for political reasons.

The newspaper noted that the latest opinion poll results will inevitably impact public confidence in the upcoming elections.
