The Gaza Strip has been hit hard by Israeli attacks in the last 24 hours, resulting in the deaths of at least 47 Palestinians, according to the Ministry of Health of the enclave. The violence has been concentrated in the center and north of Gaza, with many casualties occurring in the Shujaiya neighborhood and Al Shati camp.
The humanitarian situation is becoming increasingly dire as main crossings to Gaza remain closed, leading to skyrocketing prices for basic foodstuffs. A kilo of onions now costs around $70, a kilo of tomatoes around $50, and a kilo of meat over $100 if it’s even available. This has been a problem for at least three weeks and continues to worsen every day.
Israeli armed forces are continuing operations in the south of Gaza, targeting Hamas militants. The recent attack on the Al Hasna school in Khan Younis was carried out by the Israeli Air Force, with the Israeli Army stating that it was conducted prudently using precision weaponry to avoid harming those not involved.
The violence and devastation in Gaza have led to a dire humanitarian crisis, with innocent civilians caught in the crossfire. The international community is urged to take action to address the escalating conflict and provide aid to those affected by ongoing violence.
