The system is expected to bring a mix of rain and snow, with temperatures hovering near freezing, raising the possibility of slippery roads and transit delays.

Gaza Under Siege: Rafah Faces Intensified Israeli Airstrikes

 

In a significant escalation of hostilities, Israel has increased its airstrikes on the Gaza Strip’s Rafah region, resulting in the death of at least six Palestinians. The Israeli military has declared its intention to evacuate civilians from the border city and launch a full-scale assault, despite international warnings of potential mass casualties.

Key Points:

  • Airstrike Aftermath: Overnight airstrikes targeted Rafah, killing six, including a journalist, and resuming bombardment across Gaza.
  • Civilian Exodus: Warnings of an invasion have prompted some families to flee Rafah, though many remain uncertain of safe destinations.
  • Humanitarian Concerns: International pleas urge restraint to prevent a humanitarian disaster in Rafah, densely populated with displaced civilians.
  • Conflict Toll: The ongoing conflict, now in its seventh month, has resulted in over 34,000 Palestinian casualties and widespread displacement.

The situation remains tense as the international community calls for a de-escalation of violence and protection for the innocent caught in the crossfire. The war’s impact continues to devastate Gaza, raising fears of further humanitarian crises.
