Palestinian baby dies in West Bank after Israel blocks urgent medical care

A four-month-old Palestinian infant died after Israeli military forces blocked access to urgent medical care at a checkpoint west of Ramallah, preventing timely treatment. The child's family reported the incident, with local authorities condemning the action as a violation of human rights. Meanwhile, Israeli forces also shot dead a 16-year-old boy in the West Bank and wounded two others. Violence has intensified in the region since the start of Israel's conflict with Hamas over 1,000 days ago, resulting in numerous Palestinian casualties. In Gaza, an Israeli drone strike killed at least two people, contributing to a rising death toll. Palestinian officials accuse Israel of ongoing attacks that violate ceasefire agreements.
