Israeli strikes on Gaza have resulted in a significant loss of life and injuries since the ceasefire deal was announced on Wednesday. According to a spokesperson for Gaza's Civil Defense, the strikes have claimed the lives of 116 people and left over 264 others injured.
Among the casualties, 30 children and 32 women have tragically lost their lives. The toll on innocent civilians, especially children and women, is deeply concerning and highlights the devastating impact of the ongoing conflict.
On Friday, Hamas accused Israel of attempting to undermine the ceasefire-hostage deal by escalating aerial attacks on the already vulnerable enclave. The deliberate intensification of the attacks has raised tensions and further endangered the lives of civilians in Gaza.
The situation in Gaza remains volatile and precarious, with the recent escalation of violence adding to the already dire humanitarian crisis in the region. The international community has called for an immediate cessation of hostilities and a return to dialogue to prevent further loss of life and suffering.
Efforts to broker a lasting peace and address the root causes of the conflict are essential to achieving a sustainable solution that ensures the safety and security of all people in the region. The tragic loss of life in Gaza underscores the urgent need for a peaceful resolution to the long-standing Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
