Israeli forces raze parts of Gaza's Jabalia, hit Rafah with airstrikes
Israeli forces intensified their operations in Gaza, targeting Jabalia in the north and Rafah in the south. Strikes hit hospitals and residential areas, leading to significant destruction and civilian casualties. The conflict, ongoing for eight months, has caused over 35,000 Palestinian deaths and widespread displacement. Aid distribution faces severe disruptions, raising famine risks. Israel aims to dismantle Hamas, which controls Gaza. The humanitarian crisis worsens as northern Gaza's last functioning hospitals face critical challenges amid relentless military actions.
