At least 25 Palestinians have been killed since dawn in a series of Israeli attacks across the Gaza Strip, including a deadly airstrike on a residential home south of Al-Nuseirat refugee camp, which claimed the lives of 10 people, among them children, according to Alqahera News.
The latest escalation marks one of the deadliest mornings in recent weeks, as Israeli bombardments intensify in central and southern Gaza. Eyewitnesses described scenes of devastation following the strike in Al-Nuseirat, with rescue workers pulling bodies from beneath the rubble, including women and children.
In response to the ongoing assaults, the Palestinian Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued a strong condemnation, accusing Israel of using hunger and thirst as weapons of war against civilians in Gaza.
The Ministry called on the international community to intervene, stressing that depriving civilians of basic necessities constitutes a clear violation of international humanitarian law.
The Foreign Ministry also expressed alarm over Israeli plans to establish what it called a "humanitarian zone" in the southern city of Rafah.
It warned that such a move amounts to forced displacement of Palestinian residents, labeling it a continuation of Israel’s broader strategy of demographic manipulation under the guise of humanitarian relief.
As the humanitarian situation in Gaza deteriorates, international pressure is mounting for a ceasefire and immediate relief access. However, diplomatic efforts have so far failed to secure a lasting truce or protect civilians from the ongoing violence.
