Morning update

Good morning Middle East Eye readers,

Here are the latest developments on Israel's ongoing genocide in Gaza and developments from the Occupied West Bank and the region:

• The Global Sumud Flotilla for Gaza said on Tuesday that one of its main boats was struck by a drone in Tunisian waters. Tunisian authorities said the explosion originated inside the vessel.

• Israel struck in the vicinity of Syria's central Homs city, the coastal city of Latakia, and the historic city of Palmyra, Syrian media said on Monday.

• A major arms fair opens Tuesday in London without the presence of Israeli government officials due to worsening diplomatic relations between Britain and Israel.

• Britain's Prime Minister Keir Starmer met with Palestinian Authority president Mahmud Abbas Monday in London, as the UK government edges towards recognising a Palestinian state.

• The Palestinian health ministry said Monday that the Israeli military killed two teenagers in Jenin refugee camp, in the northern West Bank.
