Intensified Conflict: Gaza Strikes and Humanitarian Crisis
In the past 24 hours, intensified Israeli military strikes on Gaza resulted in at least 45 Palestinian deaths, according to medics. The raid targets the Jabalia refugee camp to thwart further Hamas attacks. Despite evacuation orders, no safe haven exists in Gaza, exacerbating the humanitarian crisis.
In a further escalation of violence, Israeli military operations in Gaza have resulted in the deaths of at least 45 Palestinians within the last 24 hours, Palestinian medics reported. The focus of these operations remains the Jabalia refugee camp, as Israeli forces aim to halt future attacks by Hamas fighters.
The situation for residents remains dire, with continual evacuation orders and no viable refuge. Philippe Lazzarini, head of the U.N. aid agency for Palestinian refugees, warns of the growing humanitarian crisis, citing severe shortages of basic supplies and heightened hunger.
Further complicating matters, the Gaza health ministry announced the evacuation of three hospitals in northern Gaza, heightening the risks for patients and medical staff amidst ongoing conflict. As Israel's offensive persists, the humanitarian toll continues to mount.
