Japan's Prime Minister Ishiba Shigeru has started the new extraordinary session of the Diet by stressing that he intends to achieve a consensus with opposition parties. He needs to secure wider support after the ruling coalition lost its majority in last month's Lower House election.

The article from NHK World-Japan discusses the ongoing conflict in Gaza, where Israeli forces have intensified their operations, leading to significant casualties and displacement among the Palestinian population. The report highlights the dire humanitarian situation, with shortages of essential supplies like food, water, and medical aid. International calls for a ceasefire have grown louder, with the United Nations and various countries urging for an immediate halt to the violence to allow humanitarian aid to reach those in need. The article also mentions the impact on civilians, including the destruction of homes and infrastructure, and the increasing number of people seeking refuge in overcrowded shelters. Additionally, there are mentions of negotiations and diplomatic efforts aimed at de-escalating the conflict, though progress remains slow.
