On Saturday, Israel continued its attacks on Gaza, resulting in heavy fighting and devastating consequences for the Palestinian population. The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) described the living conditions in Gaza as “unbearable,” highlighting the dire situation faced by nearly half a million people in the territory.
The Ministry of Health in Gaza reported that more than 35 Palestinians were killed in the attacks, bringing the total toll to over 37,000 killed and 86,000 injured since October 7th. Violent battles between Israeli forces and Hamas fighters took place throughout the Strip, with Israeli forces advancing into areas in both the north and south. Tank shelling in Rafah resulted in at least 11 deaths, while Israeli military operations continued in Shujaiya where a large number of militants were reported killed.
Residents fleeing from Shujaiya due to bombings left everything behind but miraculously survived. Reports from Arab television described people running for their lives as casualties mounted on the streets and homes. The Civil Defense in Gaza reported casualties from Israeli targeting of residential apartments, with hospitals damaged and out of service due to ongoing conflict.
The United Nations expressed concern over the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, where nearly half a million people are facing “catastrophic” hunger. The International Protection Committee (IPC) reported on worsening conditions, but Israeli government officials criticized its bias and sources. Meanwhile, pressure mounts on Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu’s government as demonstrations continue against various issues both Jerusalem and Tel Aviv.
Efforts to reach a ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hamas are ongoing with new proposals from the United States aimed at facilitating negotiations. However, despite these efforts, the situation remains volatile with civilians caught up in crossfire of this ongoing conflict
