Israeli forces have intensified military operations in the Gaza Strip, resulting in a high number of Palestinian casualties over recent days. The Gaza Ministry of Health reported 123 Palestinians killed in the past 24 hours, marking the highest toll in a week. Among the dead, many were civilians seeking humanitarian aid. The Israeli military has conducted heavy bombardments, including airstrikes and artillery shelling, targeting multiple neighborhoods such as Al-Zaytoun, Khan Younis, Gaza City, Al-Nuseirat refugee camp, and Tel Al-Hawa. Residential buildings have been detonated, and multiple airstrikes have hit areas with displaced families and aid seekers. The escalation precedes a planned Israeli operation to seize control of Gaza City. Concurrently, Israeli forces carried out drone strikes and artillery shelling in southern Lebanon, including an attack on a vehicle near Bint Jbeil. Hamas is reportedly engaged in talks with Egypt seeking a possible ceasefire amid the ongoing violence.
