Israel-Hamas conflict: In a devastating escalation of conflict, Israel has unleashed a series of fierce airstrikes on Gaza, resulting in the tragic loss of at least 101 Palestinian lives and leaving more than 200 injured. The relentless bombardment has caused widespread destruction. The fresh attack particularly targeted refugee camps. The deadliest attack occurred at Gaza's oldest refugee camp, Al Shati, where 24 people were killed and dozens more were injured. The camp, once a haven for those displaced by conflict, now lies in ruins. The impact of the bombing was catastrophic, reducing homes to rubble and shattering the lives of many families.

Destruction at Al Tufaah and Rafah camps

Another big attack targeted the Al Tufaah camp, resulting in the deaths of 18 Palestinians. The Israeli military also bombed the Rafah refugee camp, located on the border of Egypt and Gaza. 

Rising casualties due to air strikes

Videos shared on social media depict the harrowing scenes of people rescuing the injured and recovering bodies from the rubble. Gaza's Civil Defense reported that most of the victims are women and children. In contrast, the Israeli military claimed that their airstrikes were aimed at Hamas' military installations.

Ongoing conflict

Since October 7th of last year, the Israeli military actions in Gaza have resulted in the deaths of 37,551 Palestinians and injuries to over 85,000. Meanwhile, pressure mounts on the Israeli government to release hostages held by Hamas. Families of the hostages have been protesting in Tel Aviv, demanding immediate action and an end to the violence.

Calls for ceasefire

Amidst the escalating conflict, Israel faces international pressure to agree to a ceasefire. Concurrently, there are continuous protests within Israeli cities, with thousands taking to the streets of Tel Aviv to demand an end to the hostilities. Protesters also called for the resignation of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the holding of general elections. 

Hostage crisis 

The hostage crisis began on October 7th of last year when Hamas attacked Israel and took over 250 people hostage. Although approximately half of the hostages have been released, 41 have died, and about 116 Israeli citizens remain in captivity. The ongoing protests reflect a deep fear among the families that without a ceasefire, the conflict will prolong, endangering the remaining hostages.
