Israeli Strikes Kill 19 in Gaza Amid Ceasefire Negotiations


 In a tragic escalation of violence, Israeli airstrikes across Gaza resulted in the deaths of 19 people overnight, including a woman and her six children. These strikes occurred just as U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken arrived in the region to push forward ceasefire talks.
