Gaza Strip Airstrikes: A Tragic Toll

 

On Thursday, Israeli airstrikes resulted in the deaths of at least 26 people across the Gaza Strip. The strikes targeted Hamas security officers and an Israeli-declared humanitarian zone. Among the casualties were three children and two senior Hamas police officers. 

The strikes have exacerbated the already dire humanitarian situation in Gaza, where hundreds of thousands of displaced people are seeking shelter. The ongoing conflict has led to widespread destruction and significant loss of life, with over 45,000 Palestinians killed since the war began. The international community continues to call for a ceasefire and a peaceful resolution to the conflict.
