Cairo News Channel, citing Palestinian media, reported an Israeli airstrike on a civilian vehicle in Gaza City's Yarmouk market. This attack resulted in the death of three individuals. 

The incident adds to the escalating tensions in the region. The market, a bustling area, witnessed a tragic turn of events. This strike reflects the intensifying Israeli offensive in Gaza.

Rising Casualty Figures Amidst Ongoing Conflict

Since October 7, Israeli forces have intensified attacks by land, sea, and air. The casualty figures have risen alarmingly. Over 24,000 people have been killed, and around 62,000 injured. 

The numbers include thousands of missing persons, 70% of whom are children and women. These figures are still not final, indicating the severity of the situation.

Challenges in Rescue Operations

Rescue operations are hindered by continuous bombing and hazardous field conditions. Thousands of casualties remain under the rubble. The situation is further exacerbated by a stringent blockade of Gaza.

Restrictions on fuel and essential aid aggravate the humanitarian crisis. Urgent relief efforts are crucial to alleviate the catastrophic conditions faced by Gazans.
