Israel has continued its offensive on Gaza, killing at least 50 Palestinians and wounding over 120 in airstrikes that have targeted schools and displaced persons camps. The latest strike on Salah al-Din School in Gaza City left four dead, including children, sparking outrage from residents. The Israeli military claims the school was being used as a Hamas hideout, but evidence supporting this has not been provided.
In response to the escalating violence, Israel has issued new evacuation orders in central Gaza, causing panic and chaos among residents who have nowhere to go. Witnesses reported tanks firing on civilians near schools, further adding to the fear and desperation of the situation.
The ongoing conflict has led to over 1.7 million Palestinians being displaced to overcrowded and unsafe humanitarian zones, with only 9 percent of the Gaza Strip considered safe by Israeli forces. The UN has condemned the attacks on schools and civilian areas, calling for an immediate ceasefire to prevent further casualties, especially among children who are suffering the most in this relentless war.
As the death toll continues to rise, with most of the victims being women and children, there are growing calls for international intervention to halt the violence and provide much-needed assistance to the people of Gaza. The situation is dire, with residents pleading for mercy and an end to the war that has inflicted so much pain and suffering on innocent civilians.
