“This war in Gaza is one of the most brutal wars I’ve ever experienced. It’s the first time I feel so terrified,” says Muhammad Qndeel, a Palestinian photojournalist from Gaza. For the last week, Close Up has been filming the Palestinian photojournalist as he documents the impact of Israel’s assault on Gaza. Our team managed to get footage of Qndeel’s work before electricity was cut to the Gaza strip. Photojournalist Qndeel has covered five conflicts in the region, but this time it’s more personal.

RIYADH: Libya is set to increase its oil production to two million barrels a day, according to its government. The commodity has been a key source of revenue for Libya, with oil production directly influencing global markets and prices. However, political instability and conflicts have led to fluctuating oil production. In July, the African nation announced the continuation of oil production at two major oil fields after a brief shutdown by demonstrators protesting the arrest of a former minister. “Operations have resumed in the Al-Sharara and Al-Fil oil fields ... after they were suspended,” said the Oil Ministry, part of the UN-brokered Government of National Unity based in Tripoli.

The Gaza Health Ministry said 2,670 Palestinians have been killed and 9,600 wounded since the fighting erupted, more than in the 2014 Gaza war, which lasted over six weeks. The Israeli military also reported shooting at one of its border posts. Sullivan told CNN that Israeli officials told him they had turned the water back on in southern Gaza. Israel’s minister of energy and water, Israel Katz, said in a statement that water had been restored at one “specific point” in Gaza. Hamas rocket attacks on Israel continued Sunday, spurring a broader evacuation from the southern Israeli city of Sderot.

This was to form an interim government that would reunite their two administrations and take the country into elections to choose a permanent government. But the United Nations (UN) and most other external actors have opposed the deal, insisting on elections before a new government is formed. The plan enjoys the support of the east-based military strongman Field Marshal Khalifa Haftar, which is perhaps both a plus and a minus. Proponents of the plan warned that the turbulence of elections could upset the fragile peace that has prevailed for over a year. The Tobruk and Tripoli administrations remain divided on some of these issues, although they have agreed on an interim government before elections.

Thus, the UN’s approach to Libya needs to be seriously reevaluated.
